Head Hunters

Herbie Hancock

4/5

Tommy!

Sunday At The Village Vanguard

Bill Evans Trio

1/5

I respect it but did not enjoy it even a little bit.

Back To Black

Amy Winehouse

3/5

Better than expected. Very charismatic and catchy.

A Hard Day's Night

Beatles

2/5

The singles are decent. Mostly filler. Later albums are much better.

Ten

Pearl Jam

5/5

Great album. Distinctly remember repeatedly listening to the cassette back in the early 90s and watching the Jeremy video on repeat at 9 years old, even though my mom denies that happening. I’d give it a 4.5 if I could so I’m rounding up.

Spy Vs. Spy: The Music Of Ornette Coleman

John Zorn

4/5

My kind of jazz. Sounds like my life most days.

Bat Out Of Hell

Meat Loaf

3/5

I used to frequent pool halls in my early 20s and the only stuff I liked even a little bit was Meat Loaf or The Doors. I’d stack my money on the long songs from both and one time this guy got in my face because he was upset his Disturbed and Papa Roach songs were taking too long to play.

All Hail the Queen

Queen Latifah

2/5

Definitely better than I thought but good grief, needs an editor for sure. Should be 35 minutes max. Some good songs but a ton of filler.

Brothers In Arms

Dire Straits

2/5

This makes me feel incredibly old. When I was a kid I’d have called it dad rock. Now that I’m a dad I guess I’ll call it grandpa rock. Some good solos but way too long and boring.

The Good, The Bad & The Queen

2/5

It’s a 2, but a stronger 2 than Dire Straits. Sounds like If Murder by Death wasn’t very good.

Smash

The Offspring

3/5

Not bad. Would be better as an EP because it gets old about halfway through.

Arular

M.I.A.

3/5

I have no idea what I just listened to but I liked it.

Vivid

Living Colour

4/5

Great classic rock album. Love the guitar tone and the vocals.

KIWANUKA

Michael Kiwanuka

4/5

I had never heard of this before and didn’t know what to expect. Really enjoyed it. Great voice and the music compliments it extremely well.

Live!

Fela Kuti

3/5

Afrobeat is a new genre to me and I really enjoyed this one, especially the drum solo.

Music in Exile

Songhoy Blues

3/5

I liked this. I did myself a disservice by looking up the genre before listening. Seeing it listed as ‘desert blues’ set up wild expectations that it was not able to meet. Maybe a future album will include Brant Bjork and John Garcia.

Since I Left You

The Avalanches

1/5

Why in the world did I need to hear this. This was bad.

Licensed To Ill

Beastie Boys

5/5

I see Beasties, I give 5.

Buffalo Springfield Again

Buffalo Springfield

3/5

Neil Young rules.
