Imagine by John Lennon

Enjoyed this album - Imagine was the only recognizable song for me, but I really enjoyed the rest of the songs. I liked the variety - some bluesy, some more traditional rock. Easily an album I could listen to again.

All Things Must Pass by George Harrison
Dec 29 2025

Very charming folk album. Love the addition of the sitar. Only recognized "My Sweet Lord".

Dec 30 2025

Recognized Big Iron and El Paso. Talked to dad about the album - his dad used to listen to old country like this.

21 by Adele
Dec 31 2025

Recognize: Rolling in the Deep, Rumour Has It, Set Fire To the Rain, Someone Like You. Cannot deny the beautiful voice and depth of vocal abilities. Absolutely loved the Lovesong cover.

Queens of the Stone Age by Queens Of The Stone Age
Jan 01 2026

Great album with lots of crunchy, complex riffs. Have heard Regular John before but that's about, but I would definitely listen to it again.

Synchronicity by The Police
Jan 02 2026

Recognized Synchronicity II, Every Breath You Take and Wrapped Around You Finger. Very technical album. Less reggae style than others.

Buena Vista Social Club by Buena Vista Social Club
Jan 03 2026

New music to me. Very technical and great use of instruments.

Lost In The Dream by The War On Drugs
Jan 04 2026

I think maybe I didn't find the time to give this album what it needed. The songs were dreamy but also could be just background music, not as notable as other albums on the list so far.

Third/Sister Lovers by Big Star
Jan 05 2026

A hard album to get into and to finish this time around. I didn't recognize any songs. I enjoyed aspects of songs, but this just wasn't the album for me.

Gorillaz by Gorillaz
Jan 06 2026

Clint Eastwood is definitely the highlight of the album. The rest was interesting enough but a little slow to get in to.

Fetch The Bolt Cutters by Fiona Apple
Jan 07 2026

Kinda catchy but just not really into it. My understanding was that this album was released during the pandemic and I'm sure it really got people through it. The song with the dog barking drove my dog nuts.

Jan 08 2026

I'm sure this album was pivotal at its time. Love the mix of samples and the messages in the songs. The collab with Anthrax was a surprise.

Technique by New Order
Jan 09 2026

Not a super consequential album for me. It was interesting enough but trying to do too much. I'm glad I got to learn more about the band however. I'll be checking out more of their albums.

Nilsson Schmilsson by Harry Nilsson
Jan 10 2026

A fun listen. Recognized Coconut of course and also Without You.

Jan 11 2026

Not my usual listen, but not so bad. There was more integration of sample layers than others at the time. Enjoyed the hard rock sounds on Body Count and the Halloween sample on The Tower.

I didn't know Rod Stewart was in a band before going solo, which is part of why this project has been so fun so far. This album didn't really click for me and I tended to like the songs where it wasn't Stewart singing anyways.

American Idiot by Green Day
Jan 13 2026

Great album. Well put together. I was a fan of Greenday before but this album really shot them into super stardom.

Electric Prunes by The Electric Prunes
Jan 14 2026

Pleasantly surprised with this album. I thought it was going to be terrible just from the name alone, but the first few songs were kinda catchy.

Jan 15 2026

Wasn't too consequential for me. It could be playing in a dentist office and probably not bother too many people.

Jan 16 2026

Just couldn't get into this one. The concept of a rap opera sounds interesting, but it just did not deliver.

The Specials by The Specials
Jan 17 2026

I was excited to see this album - I've only really heard contemporary Ska music before. This album was fun.

Scissor Sisters by Scissor Sisters
Jan 18 2026

A fun album and another band I hadn't heard before. I enjoyed the comfortably numb cover. Lots of energy.

Future Days by Can
Jan 19 2026

Prog rock is definitely my cup of tea and this was an easy rating.

Imagine by John Lennon
Jan 20 2026

Enjoyed this album - Imagine was the only recognizable song for me, but I really enjoyed the rest of the songs. I liked the variety - some bluesy, some more traditional rock. Easily an album I could listen to again.

Jan 21 2026

A surprise album for me and not my usual genre of music. I liked the folk vibes and unique instrumentals and the voice had a neat quality to it.

Vento De Maio by Elis Regina
Jan 22 2026

This was more enjoyable than I was expecting for a world album. Reading the context of the artist and her early death makes the album more significant. I enjoyed the funky beats and layers of sound.

This Is Fats Domino by Fats Domino
Jan 23 2026

While not my typical type of album, I found this album to be a lot of fun. Domino's voice is so smooth and the band is really playful. Had to piece together the full album on Spotify, but well worth it.

Abattoir Blues / The Lyre of Orpheus by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Jan 24 2026

I'm really having a hard time deciding how much I like this. I think the style of the vocals turned me off a bit, but the gospel surprised me with how much I liked it. I'm intrigued to hear more from this artist.

The Trinity Session by Cowboy Junkies
Jan 25 2026

A Canadian entry! 🇨🇦 The pace of this album was really slow and not really my style, but could be an album to put on at a coffee shop and would be an easy listen.

At Fillmore East by The Allman Brothers Band
Jan 26 2026

Great album and obviously they are very talented performers. A 23 min song of them jamming is wild, but also probably not something I'll end us listening to again.

Blur by Blur
Jan 27 2026

Some very creative sounds and a great start to the album but not enough to keep me interested throughout

Street Signs by Ozomatli
Jan 28 2026

This album was a great discovery! I didn't know anything about the artist until after listening to the album. This album is a neat fusion of world music.

Fromohio by fIREHOSE
Jan 29 2026

An interesting album and not something I would have chosen to listen to, but am glad I did. Love the energy and expression.

Aja by Steely Dan
Jan 30 2026

Fun album to listen to, but not my jam. I liked the production quality of this album.

Hail To the Thief by Radiohead
Jan 31 2026

Oooh, so excited to dive into this album. It came out when I was 16 and was one of the few albums I owned, and the first of Radiohead. "There There" is one of my all time favourite songs. This'll be my first 5 star album!

Nebraska by Bruce Springsteen
Feb 01 2026

Had a hard time getting through this album.

Felt Mountain by Goldfrapp
Feb 02 2026

Unique sound and a band I'm glad to have heard and will probably check out more of. I can see why folks have compared them to Massive Attack.

Mothership Connection by Parliament
Feb 03 2026

So much funk! What a fun album. Another new band for me, and what a treat to listen to. They sound like they're having a lot of fun playing, too. Would rate 3.5 if I could.

Hysteria by Def Leppard
Feb 04 2026

A fun album and lots of great songs for the first half of the album. Lots of energy but could have been half the length of album.

Casanova by The Divine Comedy
Feb 05 2026

Sounds like the soundtrack for Epstein Island. While there's some interesting music happening, I cant get past the lyrics. "Everybody knows that 'no' means 'yes'." Just gross.

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Feb 06 2026

Great album with some of my fav hits by RHCP, but it does kinda drop off in the second half (with the exception of Road Trippin', which might be my fav song of theirs).

A Girl Called Dusty by Dusty Springfield
Feb 07 2026

Classic sound and great vocal range. Missing a little pizzazz, but an interesting listen all said and done.

Blue by Joni Mitchell
Feb 08 2026

Beautiful singing voice and clever lyrics. Definitely an album to revisit later

Africa Brasil by Jorge Ben Jor
Feb 10 2026

Beautiful energetic album. I could listen to this one again for sure.

Peggy Suicide by Julian Cope
Feb 11 2026

An interesting album but it was trying to do too much. Each song felt like a different genre.

Bummed by Happy Mondays
Feb 12 2026

I didn't have enough drugs to get through this album.

Eagles by Eagles
Feb 14 2026
Berlin by Lou Reed
Feb 16 2026
Pearl by Janis Joplin
Feb 21 2026
Kollaps by Einstürzende Neubauten
Feb 22 2026
At Folsom Prison by Johnny Cash
Mar 03 2026

I had so much fun listening to this album. Live albums aren't usually my jam, but this was a great performance and his audience interactions make Cash more likeable. 4/5

Faith by George Michael
