Blood Sugar Sex Magik

Red Hot Chili Peppers

3/5

Very funky to say the least. I think it was a bit too long, though, and got a bit repetitive for my taste. Under the Bridge and Give It Away are classics, though, and probably the best songs on the album. Favorite Track: Give It Away

Deja Vu

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

4/5

Folk rock is always fun and this is no exception. I love the classic 70s vocal melodies. Favorite Track: Woodstock

The xx

2/5

This kinda music isnt really my bag. Vocals were nice, I guess. Favorite Track: Crystalized

In A Silent Way

Miles Davis

4/5

Very nice jazz experience. There was a chord progression (I think that's what it's called) that was played multiple times on the guitar that started out very similar to another progression on The Last of Us (2013)'s soundtrack. Just thought that might be interesting to point out. Favorite Track: In a Silent Way

Debut

Björk

3/5

I liked the beats but I simply cannot get over Björk's voice. I can't take her seriously, unfortunately. Favorite Track: Big Time Sensuality

Harvest

Neil Young

4/5

Was fairly similar to Deja Vu, obviously since they're are both folk albums. This one had a bit of a slower pace which was great, especially in the last track. Favorite Track: Alabama

Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness

The Smashing Pumpkins

5/5

I love the mix of alternative styles on this album. It keeps it very fresh across its 2-hour runtime so that it doesn't get boring. Favorite Track: Bullet With Butterfly Wings

Born In The U.S.A.

Bruce Springsteen

4/5

Bruce Springsteen is a great singer. Idk what else to say. Favorite Track: Glory Days

My Generation

The Who

3/5

The vocals are nice but that's about the only unique thing about this album. Favorite Tracks: A Legal Matter, Instant Party Mixture

Are You Experienced

Jimi Hendrix

4/5

Favorite Tracks: Purple Haze, Foxey Lady

Eagles

3/5

Nice easy listening with some good tracks. Not much more than that. Favorite Tracks: Witchy Woman, Earlybird

A Date With The Everly Brothers

The Everly Brothers

2/5

Most, if not all, of these songs are less than 3 minutes and I despise that. Short songs can be good but all of these kinda mesh together into a big glob of love songs. The vocals are nice and the tunes are catchy but thats it. Favorite Tracks: Stick With Me Baby, Donna, Donna

Sheer Heart Attack

Queen

4/5

Idk it was good. Maybe I should stop writing these cuz I'm not a very good music critic. Favorite Tracks: Killer Queen, Bring Back That Leroy Brown

With The Beatles

Beatles

4/5

Favorite Tracks: Hold Me Tight, Money

A Girl Called Dusty

Dusty Springfield

3/5

Favorite Track: Wishin' and Hopin'

Hejira

Joni Mitchell

2/5

I'm not really one for songs where they just kinda sing-talk over some music (with exceptions) and this is an album full of it. Not for me. Favorite Track: A Strange Boy

Kid A

Radiohead

5/5

Everything in Its Right Place is a masterpiece of a song.

One Nation Under A Groove

Funkadelic

4/5

Some great funk tunes, but some songs went a bit too long for my taste. The last two songs had exceptional guitar playing. Faves: Who Says A Funk Band Can't Play Rock?!, Lunchmeataphobia

Bert Jansch

2/5

A nice guitar jam session. Still a bit boring for me, though. Favorite Track: Not on the OG edition but Instrumental Medley 1964 was really nice

Tracy Chapman

5/5

This is one that I need to relisten to with my full attention. Chapman's voice is angelic and the guitar is so good. Favorite Track: Mountain O' Things

Joan Armatrading

3/5

Favorite Track: Help Yourself

Only By The Night

Kings of Leon

3/5

Favorite Tracks: Sex on Fire, Use Somebody (duh)

Back to Basics

Christina Aguilera

3/5

Did she decide to only lock in on the second half or something? There are some great power ballads in the final quarter and some fun older-sounding songs in the 3rd, but the first half is pretty shit. Favorite Tracks: Mercy on Me, Candyman

The Slim Shady LP

Eminem

3/5

Kinda funny at times but sometimes it was just overbearingly crass. Favorite Tracks: My Name Is, '97 Bonnie & Clyde, My Fault

KIWANUKA

Michael Kiwanuka

5/5

Favorite Tracks: You Ain't The Problem, Hero

Parklife

Blur

4/5

This was an eclectic and fun album. Favorites: Girls & Boys | Parklife | The Debt Collecter
