Old school one of my OG rap tapes 3.5 stars maybe closer to 4 for its impact, significance, and of course, the crossover with Aerosmith on walk this way

Like Water For Chocolate

Common

3/5

Cool, vibe, the song the light sounds really familiar, Erykah Badu has a version, but it gave me general vibes. New school hip-hop.

Sheet Music

10cc

3/5

Physical Graffiti

Led Zeppelin

5/5

5 stars, pure gas, top to bottom, just like every Led Zeppelin album

You Want It Darker

Leonard Cohen

2/5

Full disclosure I did not listen to the entire album. Also full disclosure, I recognize that Leonard Cohen is talented and I appreciate that his style is “different” than much of the mainstream music available today. That said, my God, what frame of mine do you have to be to appreciate an album like this? I’m picturing someone sitting upright at a table in an uncomfortable chair with one bright white light hanging above, the rest of the room dark, wearing a black leather jacket, staring at an ashtray full of smoked cigs, a gun, and a shot of whiskey.

People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm

A Tribe Called Quest

3/5

3.5 absolutely banging album, would go 4 stars but I have a bias against new school rap 🤣

In Our Heads

Hot Chip

2/5

The vibe is dance pop synth 80s, not the worst album I’ve ever heard, but I won’t listen to it again unless I have to

Paul Simon

3/5

Was not familiar with this artist, the album is strong themed and very Herman

Untitled (Black Is)

SAULT

3/5

Strong themed and very urban, without coming across aggressively. Was not familiar with this artist.

Wild Beasts

2/5

Synchronicity

The Police

4/5

Eternally Yours

The Saints

2/5

I feel like they said “let’s make an album that sounds like The Clash but since we aren’t anywhere near as good as them let’s just make the album really long”

Highway 61 Revisited

Bob Dylan

5/5

Not for all the Grateful Dead covers. Ok fine maybe bc of that

Fifth Dimension

The Byrds

2/5

I know the Byrds are a legendary band and they have a unique sound, but I found this album to be boring

Disraeli Gears

Cream

4/5

Some really strong bangers but outside of them it’s just ok, would’ve been 5 stars otherwise

Hot Fuss

The Killers

3/5

2 big bangers The rest was good, I didn’t hate it

Vivid

Living Colour

3/5

Cult of Personality = certified banger Open Letter is a powerful, beautiful song Glamour Boys is fierce (hahaha) Would have like to see this band with more staying power

Bookends

Simon & Garfunkel

5/5

When Save the Child of my Life started I thought it was a different Band, strange sound for Simon & Garfunkel A few of my favorite Simon & Garfunkel songs are on this album… America Old Friends Loved Punky’s Dillema, funny song

Car Wheels On A Gravel Road

Lucinda Williams

4/5

She gives me female John Prine vibes, really good singer songwriter, I go 4.5 in this one

Ghosteen

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

1/5

Nick Cage is Temu Leonard Cohen

Run-D.M.C.

4/5

RUN DMC were pioneers. That’s why it gets 4 stars

Cloud Nine

The Temptations

3/5

I love the Temptations but this album didn’t do it for me

The Wall

Pink Floyd

5/5

I forgot that this is one of the greatest albums of all time

Tonight's The Night

Neil Young

4/5

Really good album as always from Neil Young, not as good as some of the others , and difficult to listen BC it’s only on Spotify, but I’m never gonna say anything bad about Neil Young album

The Band

3/5

Arc Of A Diver

Steve Winwood

3/5

3.5 banger opener

S.F. Sorrow

The Pretty Things

2/5

Sounds like the Beatles and every other band from the 60s

Never Mind The Bollocks, Here’s The Sex Pistols

Sex Pistols

3/5

3.5 Exactly like I remember from when I had this album and the poster in my wall as a 13 year old. The Sex Pistols were the Goose of their time

Listen Without Prejudice Vol. 1

George Michael

4/5

Incredible album

More Songs About Buildings And Food

Talking Heads

4/5

The Talking Heads are even better than everyone says. I wasn’t familiar w this album (outside of TMTTR) but it gave me nonstop disco dancy vibes and man this band were artists

Music

Madonna

2/5

Banger opener then meh

NEU! 75

Neu!

3/5

Very surprised by this album, enjoyed it / similar vibe to the ambient airport music album

Music in Exile

Songhoy Blues

3/5

Cool story behind the album Not my style but giving it 3 for production and creativity

Carpenters

2/5

Banger opener but the rest sounded like auto tuned covers

If You're Feeling Sinister

Belle & Sebastian

3/5

3.5 Stars this album was an easy listen, pleasant, and I did not expect to hear a harmonica on a Scottish indie pop album

...The Dandy Warhols Come Down

The Dandy Warhols

3/5

Good vibe - I imagine it’s the kind of music you’d listen to handcuffed to the bed by your ex bf while his best friend goes down on you

Buenas Noches From A Lonely Room

Dwight Yoakam

3/5

I got my country music roots working in a townie bar in Emmitsburg, MD for 2 years - I’m no expert, but I think I know the difference between roots country / good country & trash country. This feels like real country music. If A Thousand Miles from Nowhere were on this album I’d have a hard time not rating it higher

Marquee Moon

Television

3/5

I’m listening to this album thinking how it’s cool and stripped down and chill, and so, curious, I search info about the band only to find out they are a PUNK ROCK Band!?! 🤯 If this is punk rock I guess I need to re-learn what punk rock is. V good listen 3.9 stars

Mermaid Avenue

Billy Bragg

4/5

The story behind this album re Woody Guthrie lyrics might be the coolest thing I’ve heard music wise in a long time. And I don’t hate Natalie Merchant’s contribution

Exile On Main Street

The Rolling Stones

5/5

If you don’t love this album you must not love rock n roll May the good lord shine a light on you

That's The Way Of The World

Earth, Wind & Fire

3/5

Sometimes a 5 star band gets a 3 star album rating, that’s the way of the world

Dusty In Memphis

Dusty Springfield

3/5

Beautiful, powerful female vocals. Album was really easy to listen to but why did all these artists in the 70’s add cover songs to their albums? Just stand on your own legs, Dusty

Apocalypse Dudes

Turbonegro

1/5

I wish I could go back and not listen to this album
