Talking Book

Stevie Wonder

3/5

Okay, it was good few hits. But didn’t feel like I uncovered something I was missing.

Hard Again

Muddy Waters

4/5

Great blues — guitar riffs really good.

Boston

4/5

A surprise on how cohesive this album was.

Tapestry

Carole King

5/5

Perfect album for a rainy day

Horses

Patti Smith

2/5

Okay!

Cloud Nine

The Temptations

4/5

Solid album! Nothing stuck out to me and grabbed my attention. But good album front to back, would be great as a record for the background.

Buenas Noches From A Lonely Room

Dwight Yoakam

2/5

Not what I anticipated at all. A good listen, but not a ton of diversity in the songs making it feel less cohesive and more stale. The touches of inspiration were really good.

Highly Evolved

The Vines

4/5

Great find, so surprised that I hadn’t heard this before. Great album. Sounds like the Strokes

Hunky Dory

David Bowie

4/5

Each song a surprise. David Bowie cementing his legacy. Now I see. Near perfect album.

Trans Europe Express

Kraftwerk

2/5

Would be good if I were on ecstasy in a German club!

Ten

Pearl Jam

5/5

Beach Samba

Astrud Gilberto

3/5

Stankonia

OutKast

4/5

Solid

The White Room

The KLF

4/5

An unexpected joy. Not what I would normally gravitate towards and not sure how/when I would listen to it again, but I am glad to have done so.

Virgin Suicides

Air

5/5

Perfect album for me. A few stand out songs, cohesive, with enough diversity to keep you interested.

Hysteria

Def Leppard

2/5

Not as good as the other one. But hard to say, I think this is an album depending on its environment; I think listening on a Walkman in the 80s in the Summer time would change my opinion.

The Pleasure Principle

Gary Numan

4/5

This album is the reason I got into this project in the first place. Finding pieces that are exciting and change your perspective of music and taste of music. Such a strong and revolutionary album. I’m appalled that I waited until I was 25 to hear this. This was amazing a very STRONG 4 — 4.5 for me. The back end is where I think it lost some points but hard to tell because the top half is that strong.

At Fillmore East

The Allman Brothers Band

3/5

Good album, would be great to own — I’m not sure what context I’d play it in though. It was a great front to back listen but nothing stood out

The Renaissance

Q-Tip

3/5

Pretty good, found a few songs that I liked.

McCartney

Paul McCartney

1/5
