The Hangman's Beautiful Daughter

The Incredible String Band

2/5

A blend of irish folk, minstrel music, and another 60s bands that discovered the sitar and really shouldn't have. That said, there was a lot of variety here and the album certainly wasn't boring. Would I listen to it again? Probably not. Will I remember it? For the rest of my goddamn life.

Blood, Sweat & Tears

3/5

I feel like I should have enjoyed this more than I did. A few standouts, but nothing really pulled me in. Felt like it was missing something.

Joan Armatrading

I wanted to like this more than I did, but most of the music was pretty forgettable. Love and Affection was nice
