Machine Head

Deep Purple

5/5

Pure unadulterated rock

At San Quentin

Johnny Cash

5/5

Another re-listen for me. This one is somewhat (rightfully) overshadowed by the Folsom Prison album but Cash was electric in both musical performance and commentary.

Another Green World

Brian Eno

3/5

This album has some really great songs but they are balanced out by some really bad ones as well.

New Wave

The Auteurs

3/5

A bit boring but not unpleasant. Sounds like something you'd hear in a supermarket.

Live At The Harlem Square Club

Sam Cooke

4/5

I've listened to this album before but on re-listen have similar thoughts. Sam and the band do a great job with some great songs but the live setting of the album detracts from my ability to enjoy it.

Talking Timbuktu

Ali Farka Touré

4/5

Enjoyed this one way more than the other album I've heard from him. My main complaint about the other album was the length of the songs and the (perceived) lack of development as they progressed. The songs did feel feel like they developed here even if still overstaying their welcome a bit.

Here's Little Richard

Little Richard

5/5

Man this album was a fun listen. His voice is incredible and this album sounds great considering the timeframe it was recorded. The songs start to sound the same after the first 3 or 4 but the album is short enough that I won't detract for that.
