Back To Black

Amy Winehouse

5/5

This album reminds me of having dinner at the cottage with my parents over a nice glass of wine. It was the perfect start for me

The Seldom Seen Kid

Elbow

3/5

I am super vibing with Grounds for Divorce. It's giving Radiohead meets Gordon Lightfoot. Not a bad album. Very soothing. I might have needed it today. But not one that I am going to keep in my favs.

The United States Of America

1/5

This is not a good start and also not the band I want to listen to on Canada v. USA day. It's giving American Sargent Peppers. I'm gonna need to DNF this guy.

The Gershwin Songbook

Ella Fitzgerald

3/5

Ok I can tell yo right now that I am going to love this but also I am absolutely not going to finish the whole thing. My Poppa always played Ella Fitzgerald at the cottage and over the holidays. And I played Gershwin all the time in band when I was in high school (nerd alert). I got through to the middle of disk two before I tapped out because it is too long but I definitely think that there is a time and a place for me to play this and enjoy it

Back At The Chicken Shack

Jimmy Smith

3/5

Jesus these are long songs. That's a cute dog tho. This is another one I could see myself playing in the background at a family gathering. My Nana & Poppa would have (and probably did) love this.

Homework

Daft Punk

2/5

This is starting off v funny. Hit Da Funk and feeling a little more up my alley. And now we are starting to get a little too repetitive for my taste. I can see how this would have been very different at the time. I'm surprised to say I'm not going to save this one. I know "techno" is my genre, but I think it's just not got the grit I normally go for. It's not angry enough :D

A Walk Across The Rooftops

The Blue Nile

3/5

I don't think that this album could be more 80s if it tried

Get Rich Or Die Tryin'

50 Cent

4/5

Who's Next

The Who

3/5

Not the theme for CSI Miami... This is real peak dad rock. I know the big three on this album for before. I don't think it has the appropriate nostalgia for me to keep in my library and play again, but I did enjoy myself

In A Silent Way

Miles Davis

3/5

"What a short album! Oh...." This is really what I needed this morning to settle me down after a chaotic drop off. I'm just curious about how he performed these songs! Did he just never take a break? I knew he was impressive but damn.

Giant Steps

The Boo Radleys

5/5

I actually really like this. I could see myself listening to this on a rough day at work just to settle myself and lock in. Tune the world out. I like it. Love the clarinet in Best Lose the Fear.

Cross

Justice

4/5

This is bringing me back to a very specific time in high school that honestly I kind of loved (aside from hating most of high school). That being said, I think I only know three of these songs. I feel like I am right on the precipice of indie sleaze.

Blonde On Blonde

Bob Dylan

3/5

Oh right off the bat I am happy. This reminds me of a cottage night. But also fuck these songs are long. And can I be honest? Having trouble discerning the difference between songs. Is this because I am not generally a fan of this genre? Or do they actually all sound the same?

In The Court Of The Crimson King

King Crimson

3/5

DOES EVERY ALBUM HAVE TO HAVE SUCH LONG SONGS! I DON'T HAVE THIS KIND OF ATTENTION SPAN! I HAVE A TODDLER! Ok but I do remember Moonchild from when I was young and I thought I was so cool and ethereal listening to it. Definitely a save.

One Nation Under A Groove

Funkadelic

2/5

Dirty

Sonic Youth

2/5

I'm not so sure I'm into it. I don't hate it. I don't love it.

Beggars Banquet

The Rolling Stones

3/5

As a person who grew up in a Beatles house, this is going to be interesting. I do love Sympathy for the Devil though. Also I know Street Fighting Man. I guess that was played in my house

Time Out Of Mind

Bob Dylan

3/5

I didn't know that this is where Make You Feel My Love comes from. I like Adele's version more, of course. I liked this album. I'm probably not going to re-listen, but I understand why it's included on this list
