All Ratings

Music for the Masses

Depeche Mode

4/5

Lost Souls

Doves

3/5

actually prefer their follow-up The Last Broadcast quite a bit

Brilliant Corners

Thelonious Monk

4/5

melodic & chaotic, would definitely revisit [first listen]

Strangeways, Here We Come

The Smiths

5/5

you can really see the cracks forming but oh what a swan song

Tapestry

Carole King

5/5

a great singer-songwriter at her peak gets a little help from her friends; an essential pop classic

Roger the Engineer

The Yardbirds

4/5

overall a fairly listenable psychedelic rock classic & worthy Jeff Beck showcase bonus note: "Farewell" piano melody seems to match The Crystals "Parade of the Wooden Soldiers" for a small segment 3.5/5 (first listen)

Different Class

Pulp

3/5

a bit bri-ish innit; couple standout tracks here but HIS 'N HERS clears pretty comfortably 3.5/5

Sheet Music

10cc

4/5

the Dilla samples! 3.5/5

L.A. Woman

The Doors

4/5

probably one of the more drunken albums i can think of 4/5

Melodrama

Lorde

3/5

not really my cup of tea but overall pretty ok i suppose 3/5

Oar

Alexander 'Skip' Spence

3/5

oddball psychedelic meandering from an apparently troubled soul 3/5

At Newport 1960

Muddy Waters

5/5

a mysterious force starts to overtake me, what is that, am i dancing and i don't even realize it 4.5/5

Hms Fable

Shack

2/5

did enjoy the closer, the rest was somewhat forgettable– this one feels like a bit of a sneak 2.5/5

Innervisions

Stevie Wonder

5/5

stone-cold classic, an all-time great at his artistic peak, what more can you say

Darkness on the Edge of Town

Bruce Springsteen

4/5

almost jarring in a way now, to hear something so earnest; also packs a wallop, we stan a champion for the working class 4.5/5

Faust IV

Faust

5/5

a definitive krautrock essential, doesn't get much better for 70s German experimental composition than this genre staple 5/5

One Nation Under A Groove

Funkadelic

5/5

who says a funk band can't play rock? 5/5

The White Album

Beatles

5/5

i can sorta understand why hearing Helter Skelter in 1968 would've fried somebody's mind 5/5

Aladdin Sane

David Bowie

5/5

Murder Ballads

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

4/5

he doesn't really hold back huh 4/5

Off The Wall

Michael Jackson

5/5

The King of Pop at the peak of his powers 5/5

Imperial Bedroom

Elvis Costello & The Attractions

3/5

it's fine, just not really my cup of tea– having so many Costello in the book doesn't make much sense; they're fairly interchangeable for the most part 3.5/5

Yank Crime

Drive Like Jehu

2/5

isn't music supposed to sound good 2/5

Blonde On Blonde

Bob Dylan

5/5

everybody must get stoned! 5/5

3 Years, 5 Months And 2 Days In The Life Of...

Arrested Development

5/5

mostly hits the sweet spot of classic hip-hop for me, combining great backing tracks & samples with compelling verses 4.5/5
