Axis: Bold As Love

Jimi Hendrix

4/5

This album is a masterpiece, especially considering it came out in 1967. The writing here is top-notch and the phased drums sound phenomenal and were unheard of at the time. I still believe that this is not Hendrix' best work, Electric Ladyland is even stronger.

White Blood Cells

The White Stripes

2/5

Boring and uninnovative. Not an album that should be here.

Sunday At The Village Vanguard

Bill Evans Trio

3/5

Good brassless Jazz Album, the elevator music prejudice unfortunately shines very much in this, even tho it's got some really interesting bass lines. Overall not the absolute best Jazz Album i have ever heard.

Led Zeppelin

5/5

The writing on this is so musical. Everything about this album is superb. It starts amazing and ends amazing.

On The Beach

Neil Young

4/5

Side Two is amazing. Unfortunately, Side One can't keep up. That's why it isn't a 5/5.

Music From Big Pink

The Band

5/5

This is one of the best debut albums of all time. The composition and production sounds so modern in a good way, especially considering this album is from 1968. Everyone in this band has a beatiful voice.

Beautiful Freak

Eels

5/5

This is a phenomenal album. Not very one-dimensional like many albums from the 90s could seem. Blends suprisingly many genres together and the songwriting is very good.

Superfly

Curtis Mayfield

4/5

So this is where Bruno Mars gets all his vocal inspiration from. Very good album with amazing vocal performance and instrumental arrangements. Can get very repetitive in some songs tho.

Revolver

Beatles

5/5

Easily one of the most influential albums of all time. The Beatles have many 5/5 albums and this is one of the absolute best.

Bad Company

1/5

Boring, boring, BORING.

Wonderful Rainbow

Lightning Bolt

1/5

I am open-minded but skeptical.

Brothers

The Black Keys

2/5

Not bad but definitely not an album you have to listen to before you die.

Songs In The Key Of Life

Stevie Wonder

5/5

This is so good. Not just is Stevie one of the best singers of all time but the music is also fantastic. So many talented people worked on these kind of albums back in the day.

New Gold Dream (81/82/83/84)

Simple Minds

1/5

80s synth pop has got to be the most annoying crap ever.

The Last Of The True Believers

Nanci Griffith

3/5

This is as good as country music gets. Unfortunately not for me but her singing is really nice.

Foo Fighters

4/5

The story behind this album is bittersweet. To imagine that Dave Grohl basically made this completely on his own in a time where his life felt like it was falling apart is nothing short of incredible.

A Seat at the Table

Solange

2/5

Nice message packed into "Fitting Room Music". Boring beyond boring. Nothing about this is remotely rememberable.

Led Zeppelin II

Led Zeppelin

4/5

This album is very good with a lot of hits but not as consistent as people say. Living Loving Maid, What Is and What Should Never Be and Bring It on Home are not that great.

The Doors

5/5

This album is easily one of the best albums of all time, if not the best.

Southern Rock Opera

Drive-By Truckers

2/5

If an album is 90 minutes long it is doomed to fail. Nothing can keep anyones attention for 90 minutes, certainly not forgettable song like these. The album cover is ugly as well.

Woodface

Crowded House

3/5

It didn't bother me so it can't be that bad.

Frank

Amy Winehouse

5/5

She was 19 when this came out. Incredible to say the least.

Hunky Dory

David Bowie

4/5

This is a very good album. I am not the absolute biggest Bowie fan but you cannot deny his genius. Obviously it helps having musicians like Mick Ronson, Rick Wakeman and Trevor Bolder play with you. I was torn between 4 and 5 but i think 4/5 is fair, it isn't a no skip album imo.

Timeless

Goldie

1/5

Pass

Head Hunters

Herbie Hancock

4/5

Many innovative sounds and quite suprisingly a very easy listen.

Garbage

4/5

I love Shirley's voice. Really very good songs on here.

Teenage Head

Flamin' Groovies

2/5

This is not an album you absolutely have to listen to before you die because there is many albums out there that sound exactly the same. I am not knocking the band tho the songs are okay.

Repeater

Fugazi

4/5

Really amazing and influential album. Was really ahead of it's time.
