Sticky Fingers

The Rolling Stones

4/5

Absolute classic, many needle drops from film and tv, love the beggining and end

This Year's Model

Elvis Costello & The Attractions

4/5

Fun from start to finish. Timeless sound, learned about it from the SNL 30

Lust For Life

Iggy Pop

3/5

Theatrical, like a punky version of Lou Reed. The classics outweigh the deep cuts. To my surprise the end is better than the beggining.

More Songs About Buildings And Food

Talking Heads

4/5

One of my all time favorite bands, very similar style and vibe as their debut, prelude to their most creative leap. Favorites are Found a Job, Artists Only and of course, Al Green's Take Me to the River.

Fragile

Yes

2/5

I've only enjoyed certain classic prog-rock artists, but not all. This isn't quite my cup of tea, even though the first is an all time classic, incredible musicianship and performance. Wish i was into it more.

Abbey Road

Beatles

5/5

Second best Beatles album imo, great from start to finish. Love how the chaotic dynamic of their relationship led to many songs that otherwise won't have been released and all are memorable, quotable and almost all hits.

Stardust

Willie Nelson

2/5

The recording sounds great, great covers, just not consistant enough to be a classic for me or rated higher

Chris

Christine and the Queens

3/5

Good contemporary pop album, some great deep cuts, love DamFunks contributions. Not memorable enough, but fun all the way through

Talking Heads 77

Talking Heads

4/5

Love almost every song. Lifts you with happiness and creativity. Sounds so ordinary and original at the same time. Amazing songs sounding so young and inexperienced yet years beyond what they had lived until then. Can you tell Talking Heads are one of my favorites?

The Grand Tour

George Jones

1/5

Walking Wounded

Everything But The Girl

5/5

I forget how good this album is from start to finish. No skips, sounds like a greatest hits album. Two of my favorite songs of all time.

James Brown Live At The Apollo

James Brown

2/5

Big fan of James Brown and understand the historical relevance of the album. Huge detractors to rate it higher is the length and song selection for the album version; it’s just a sampler of the impact of his live show.

Led Zeppelin IV

Led Zeppelin

5/5

Flawless classic, debatable if it’s the best or my favorite led zep album. No deep cuts to be found, 8 huge songs. Hard to find albums of this caliber

Ten

Pearl Jam

4/5

I've never been a fan of theirs, but half of this album is ingrained in my brain of how many times of heard them. Absolute classices from my childhood, i remember my favorite changing every couple of years. I never got into any of their other albums, but this is a 90s legend.

Now I Got Worry

The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion

3/5

Back To Black

Amy Winehouse

3/5

Even though i was around for the rise and fall of Amy, i never listened to the album fully. I really like Ronson's production and the singles are amazing, and Amy's personality shines through even on the deep cuts. I've never cared much for Rehab, but You know i'm no good is an all timer. If the non-singles were better i'd rate this higher.

L.A. Woman

The Doors

4/5

Electric Ladyland

Jimi Hendrix

5/5

Abattoir Blues / The Lyre of Orpheus

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

4/5

Bongo Rock

Incredible Bongo Band

2/5

Greatly influential for sample based music, i see why it was used to cut so many tracks. Overall it gets pretty repetitive, fun, but definetly made to be listened to once, take the best tracks and move on from it.
