Maggot Brain

Funkadelic

2/5

Wow! Didn’t know I should have dropped a little cid before listening to this one! Definitely ahead of its time for 1971 and I guess I’d say Hit it and Quit it was the fave track. Either that or the title track. Not really my cup of tea, but can appreciate why it’s one of the 1001.

Funeral

Arcade Fire

3/5

The early 2000s. A little more my speed, but not a mind scrambler. Good tunes including the “hit” Rebellion (Lies). I’d listen again

At Mister Kelly's

Sarah Vaughan

4/5

Classic jazz vocal and live to boot. Really good stuff.

The Clash

3/5

Not bad for late 70s punk.

Ocean Rain

Echo And The Bunnymen

3/5

Echo & the Bunnymen were the band that the ultra mega cool kids liked in high school. I liked this one well enough, I guess. Killing Moon will always be the fave on this record.

Bitches Brew

Miles Davis

5/5

He’s the goat, no doubt about that! Miles kills it every time and Bitches Brew is no exception.

Oracular Spectacular

MGMT

5/5

I already knew some songs from this record, but I’ve been wanting a reason to listen to the rest of it. This was it, and I’m glad I did.

Red Headed Stranger

Willie Nelson

5/5

Of course I’ve heard a couple tracks from this record, but I’d never heard it in its entirety. A true classic from a true legend.

High Violet

The National

3/5

Nilsson Schmilsson

Harry Nilsson

5/5

How have I not listened to this album? Found out a lot about Harry and his music by listening and reading his Wikipedia page. It’s a shame he passed so early…like so many before and after him. Loved this record for sure.

Moving Pictures

Rush

4/5

This is definitely one of my fave Rush albums. Probably #2 only to be topped by Grace Under Pressure…but that’s just my personal taste. As far as Moving Pictures: The songs: perfect. The cover: iconic. The band: legends. I have no problem listening to this record, ever.

Play

Moby

4/5

Surprised by a couple of these tracks I’d never heard and really liked them. Overall a good listen.

Kilimanjaro

The Teardrop Explodes

1/5

Didn’t care for it too much

The Genius Of Ray Charles

Ray Charles

4/5

Another GOAT!

The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan

Bob Dylan

1/5

Just not a fan…never have been.

Born To Be With You

Dion

2/5

The Man Who

Travis

3/5

Not bad, but again, not a mind scrambler.

Brilliant Corners

Thelonious Monk

4/5

The classic early days of jazz. Can’t beat it.

Thriller

Michael Jackson

5/5

C’mon man. You definitely can’t beat this…well, maybe you can…wink, wink… Yeee heee!

Fear Of Music

Talking Heads

3/5

This ain’t no party, this ain’t no disco, this ain’t no foolin around!

Highly Evolved

The Vines

5/5

Classic power pop. Enjoyed it quite a bit!

Deja Vu

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

5/5

An absolute classic, no denying this one.

The Black Saint And The Sinner Lady

Charles Mingus

4/5

I do like classic jazz. These guys are truly pioneers.

OK Computer

Radiohead

5/5

An iconic 90s staple.

Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere

Neil Young & Crazy Horse

3/5

I don’t usually like Neil Young, but I wasn’t upset with this.

The World is a Ghetto

War

3/5

Not bad

The Notorious Byrd Brothers

The Byrds

2/5

Not bad, but not a fave.

At Fillmore East

The Allman Brothers Band

5/5

Legendary.

Innervisions

Stevie Wonder

4/5

Love Stevie…

Maxwell's Urban Hang Suite

Maxwell

4/5

Make some babies!

Hunky Dory

David Bowie

3/5

Another legend.

Suzanne Vega

4/5

I didn’t really like SV back in the day, but you know what? This really wasn’t as bad as I remember. I kind of enjoyed it actually.

Doolittle

Pixies

3/5

Loud and proud. Wasn’t into the Pixies too much back then, but I see the appeal and enjoyed this one.

Brothers In Arms

Dire Straits

4/5

An absolute classic and brought them into the extreme mainstream. Can’t remember if I had the LP or cassette, but I bought it when it was released.

Too Rye Ay

Dexys Midnight Runners

2/5

Never heard this all the way through and I doubt I will ever again. I did appreciate the fact that the hit was buried within the album, and yeah, if it ever comes on in a party atmosphere I’m gonna sing it, but I just don’t like his voice.

good kid, m.A.A.d city

Kendrick Lamar

5/5

An absolute fave of mine from the beginning. I like the way Kendrick raps, the song structures, the way it was produced, the story…I like everything about it.
