Black Sabbath

5/5

Classic! Stark departure from most of the contemporary music.

Actually

Pet Shop Boys

4/5

This one surprised me. It started like a pretty typical synth pop album, but delved deeper as the album continued.

Ten

Pearl Jam

3/5

The songs are really well played and produced, but mostly sound the same. I would hope for a bit more range throughout an album.

Songs For Swingin' Lovers!

Frank Sinatra

4/5

There’s some great classics in here! It’s a bit samey-same but really well done.

Out Of The Blue

Electric Light Orchestra

4/5

Classic prog rock! I enjoy that most of the songs are like small bursts of inspiration, sometimes drawing from classsical motifs like Gershwin‘s „Rhapsody in Blue.“

The Suburbs

Arcade Fire

3/5

I never quite understood the hype over this band, and this album didn’t clear things up much. There are a few songs that are quite good, like Sprawl II.

461 Ocean Boulevard

Eric Clapton

3/5

There’s some great playing on this album, but I think I like his later stuff more.

Let It Bleed

The Rolling Stones

3/5

This was a pretty good album. There are a few classics, and a nice bluesy sound throughout.

Grievous Angel

Gram Parsons

4/5

This album is pretty unique. I like the blend of country and rock.

Since I Left You

The Avalanches

5/5

What a unique album! I like how a lot of the songs flow into each other as movements of a larger work.

Songs In The Key Of Life

Stevie Wonder

5/5

I’d already enjoyed a few songs, but I‘m kicking myself for not delving into the entire album earlier! This is some of the coolest stuff.

Rattus Norvegicus

The Stranglers

3/5

It was fine, but not all that innovative in my opinion. Maybe it hit different when it was first released though.

Dry

PJ Harvey

5/5

What a cool, heavy sound! I really enjoyed this!

Bridge Over Troubled Water

Simon & Garfunkel

5/5

Wonderful album! There’s something so earnest in their songwriting and singing.

The Band

4/5

This is a solid album, if a bit dated.

KIWANUKA

Michael Kiwanuka

5/5

This is such a cool album! Love the retro vibe and the choir throughout.

She's So Unusual

Cyndi Lauper

4/5

This album has a cool unique sound, and a few really good songs. Solid!

The Yes Album

Yes

4/5

Classic prob rock! I really like some of these songs and they have some very interesting harmonies.

Devil Without A Cause

Kid Rock

2/5

This had potential to be good, but didn’t live up to it. I like genre-bending, but this feels too try-hard.

Mott

Mott The Hoople

3/5

This was a decent album, but I don’t feel like it’s best-album-list worthy.

Take Me Apart

Kelela

3/5

I like the vibes, but it seems to be pretty much purely vibes. Nothing stands out.

The Next Day

David Bowie

3/5

This one was hit-or-miss. There were some with classic Bowie touches, and some that seemed like typical hit-maker fare.

Step In The Arena

Gang Starr

4/5

I like the overall sound! I looked at some of the lyrics and am impressed by the poetry. I feel like this is an album where you can discover something new with each listen.

Live 1966 (The Royal Albert Hall Concert)

Bob Dylan

3/5

I understand the historic value here, but I don’t think this is Dylan‘s best work by any means.

Moondance

Van Morrison

4/5

This is easy to listen to, but didn’t really blow me away.

The Clash

5/5

I love the rawness. In a world where everything feels fake, authenticity is refreshing.

Exodus
