Talking Timbuktu by Ali Farka Touré
Jan 08 2026

Loved the instrumentation (with the exception of track 4), really spoke to the tap dancer in me. First two tracks were really beautiful. Loses me a little with the length of each track. I am not familiar with much world music. Favorite track: Lasidan; least fav: Sega.

Here's Little Richard by Little Richard
Jan 09 2026

I get this, and why it would be so magnetic live. It does feel like most of the songs are modeled after Tutti Frutti in melody and pacing, and maybe that’s the point. Enjoyed the second half of the album more than the first. Fav track: Tutti Frutti, Least Fav: True, Fine Mama

Horses by Patti Smith
Jan 10 2026

Loved the first track so much. The rest was a tough listen, which I know is the point, but I wouldn’t return to it.

Ready To Die by The Notorious B.I.G.
Jan 11 2026

I can recognize the impact of this. I feel like he would’ve been a fan of Doechii today. That said, it’s not for me. My favorite track was Juicy, and the back half of the album was more interesting to me than the front.

Pearl by Janis Joplin
Jan 12 2026

I don’t have anything negative to say apart from small moments on the album I didn’t love. Her voice is very interesting, and I enjoyed the instrumentals. I feel it would continue to grow on me with more listens.

Jan 13 2026

I have almost nothing to say. I liked Killer Queen, which I knew before. I’m sure there are other Queen albums I would like more and be more engaged with.

Trout Mask Replica by Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band
Jan 14 2026

I’m a Spotify user and feel like I’m missing a lot of this album, but what I did hear was 0% for me. It was scratchy and chaotic and not something I get.

Five Leaves Left by Nick Drake
Jan 15 2026

Just not for me. I’m sure it’s for someone, but not met. It felt uninteresting and flat. The instrumentation was fine.

Moving Pictures by Rush
Jan 16 2026

Just did nothing for me. I liked some of the instrumentation. Didn’t find any of it gripping.

Black Sabbath by Black Sabbath
Jan 17 2026

Surprised my positively. Not my genre of choice usually, but this was good.

Music Has The Right To Children by Boards of Canada
Jan 19 2026

I don’t get this or what it’s trying to do. It’s not something I would ever access again for any purpose.

Jan 20 2026

Very entertaining and a breath of fresh air. This made me want to listen to more of his work.

Jan 22 2026

I liked this. Overall pretty enjoyable. Nothing earth-shattering for me, but good.

Black Metal by Venom
Jan 23 2026

Really really not for me, but that is expected. I can tell the guitar is incredible throughout, so I wish I could handle listening to it more.

Zombie by Fela Kuti
