Here's Little Richard

Little Richard

3/5

Maybe the best opening to an album I’ve heard in my life.

Dirt

Alice In Chains

3/5

The highs of this album are incredibly high. Opening track rips, Rooster and Would are fuckin amazing! Vocally top performances in the genre ever. Second half of the album drags for me, a few skip songs too many.

At Mister Kelly's

Sarah Vaughan

3/5

Incredible Sunday morning record! No wanky jazz solos. Track 9 has some scatting, which I have a hard time not gigging to. A great “set it and forget it” album… no big standouts, but a lovely vibe throughout.

The Bends

Radiohead

5/5

First 5/5 album of this listening experience. A truly perfect album. No misses

Five Leaves Left

Nick Drake

3/5

Sleepy dreamy alhum… requires more listens. Last track, Saturday sun is the standout and it’s amazing

High Violet

The National

5/5

Such an important record in my life. The b-sides are so fucking good. Sorrow! Like a great film, every listen I find something else I love.

If You're Feeling Sinister

Belle & Sebastian

4/5

Some of the most wonderful songs… fox in the snow, if you’re feeling sinister make this a 4 star album alone

Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)

Wu-Tang Clan

4/5

I loved how this album feels like a fuckin team coming to crush your soul. Like THE U in the 80s. Loved it … relentless confidence

Home Is Where The Music Is

Hugh Masekela

4/5

Loved it! I usually pass on jazz. This album’s rhythm section is excellent. First track is a standout for me.

NEU! 75

Neu!

3/5

Garage rock kraftwerk!

Adele

4/5

I loved it. All I ask is heartbreaking and a great bsides . Hello is a 10 beller

What's That Noise?

Coldcut

1/5

I thought an adobe software AD was a part of the album. That’s how little I enjoyed this sample riddled boring ass album. First clunker on the list.

White Light

Gene Clark

2/5

Not quite John Denver. Not quite Simon and Garfunkel. Not quite Jackson brown. Not quite Hayden… not quite right. The covers on this album are so fuckin bad.

Faith

George Michael

2/5

Ugh such a disappointment. Faith is a great opener, and maybe the only good song on the album

Smash

The Offspring

4/5

All killer no filler. Forgot how amazing this album is. It’s not quite weezer blue album…but even the deep cuts are great on here.

Armed Forces

Elvis Costello & The Attractions

4/5

I need to listen to this more! But it’s a great vibe throughout Last track is special

Night Life

Ray Price

2/5

Some of the vibes were cool. I enjoyed the opening to the album. I couldn’t stomach the lyrics on many of the tracks.

Ramones

3/5

I wish I could give .5’s blitzkreig bop rocks. I actually like the production sound. Too many songs sound the same.

Goo

Sonic Youth

2/5

I really was not in the right mood for this album all day. I can see some moments of appeal, but I hated the experience of listening to this album. I was feeling off kilter and messy all day, and this only made it worse! I may go back to listen another time. But man… it really made me worse.

Two Dancers

Wild Beasts

1/5

I hated the vocals so much it was barely bearable. Barely!

Live!

Fela Kuti

4/5

Fackin great vibes. In the right mood, perfect.

Blackstar

David Bowie

4/5

Incredible album. Similar to Leonard Cohen’s last album. Just a true artist till the end. Lazarus is one of my favourites songs period, and his best 21st century song.

Talvin Singh

2/5

Meh… I get some good vibes here and there from the rhythm section. But overall, meh.

Rust In Peace

Megadeth

3/5

Great example of a band and album I would never listen to if not pushed by this adventure. I really enjoyed it, was breaking ice up and shovelling snow outside my house and it was the perfect audio fuel. I also enjoyed the more political resistance in the lyrics. Much more intense than I woulda thought. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Let's Get It On

Marvin Gaye

4/5

Track 1, side 1… bam.

Honky Tonk Heroes

Waylon Jennings

2/5

I enjoyed the last song on the album and not much else

Marquee Moon

Television

3/5

This is an album I want to spend more time with. I can see so many influences on bands I love coming from this band/album.

Ogden's Nut Gone Flake

Small Faces

3/5

Super weird, but in a fun way. Very late 60s Beatles vibes. The last track is truly bananas. I liked it.

The World is a Ghetto

War

3/5

I got more into it as it went along. The world is a ghetto is such a great track. I was singing along by the end of the song.

Superfuzz Bigmuff

Mudhoney

1/5

Something about this album that made me feel allergic to it. I barely got through it.

Physical Graffiti

Led Zeppelin

5/5

I’m so happy this album was thrusted upon me. I’ve never spent any time with this record and I loved it! I love how many directions it goes, with so much variety. In the Light leading into bron-yr-Aur is sooooo lovely.
