Who's Next

The Who

5/5

Two album set with both studio recordings (album 1) and live versions (album 2). For today’s listeners with a short attention span this may be a bit much with up to three versions of the same song (remasters). Over half the songs are hits and the album features a nice crescendo.

The Dark Side Of The Moon

Pink Floyd

5/5

What more needs to be said about this album. It is considered to be one of the greatest of all time.

Queen II

Queen

2/5

Meh… sophomore album. Not my cup of tea. I think Feddie Murcurey might be 🌈

Natty Dread

Bob Marley & The Wailers

3/5

Had this on while doing house keeping as background music. Not my favorite Bob Marley album. I didn’t save a single track to my reggae playlist.

Honky Tonk Heroes

Waylon Jennings

1/5

Made it 1 1/2 tracks in and dipped. This music was not made for me. It was made for losers.

Fleet Foxes

2/5

Nice background music for woodworking or if you’re a soft handed beard grooming, cobbler shoe hipster.

Surfer Rosa

Pixies

5/5

The Pixies are one of my, and always have been, favorite bands since HS and I’m 55yrs young. This may not be their best album yet it still has some bangers.

Giant Steps

The Boo Radleys

3/5

This band got by me in 90’s. I would imagine if you attended any engineering school during that time period you listened to this band on college radio. Singer puts me in the mind of Elliot Smith, however this is not that.

Highway to Hell

AC/DC

5/5

It’s AC⚡️DC… With Bon Scott no less. Just banger after banger

This Is Fats Domino

Fats Domino

1/5

Not my era. This music is just silly. Obviously inspired by the environment this generation grew up in, post WWII when everything seemed to be on the up and up. No Cold War vibes just money, drink and women. Makes me feel sad.

Ramones

2/5

They sniffed all the glue and left none for you. One noteable track Blitzkrieg Bop and the rest is over produced bubble gum punk. I mean if you like familiar… This is for “safe dangerous” punk rockers.

Paul Simon

2/5

Nice background music for a doctors office waiting room.

Getz/Gilberto

Stan Getz

3/5

File under jazz or relaxing Classic Track 1 The Girl From Ipanema

Francis Albert Sinatra & Antonio Carlos Jobim

Frank Sinatra

3/5

Listened while installing window blinds. Girl From Epanema again. Stan Getz is better.

The Sun Rises In The East
