Beastie Boys

4/5

Love it, old school fun. I remember recording “Fight for Your Right” from the radio when I was a kid! This began a love affair with The Beasties!

Decent album

Not for me

4/5

Some of these songs haven’t aged well, but, as a fan of the Beatles, I still enjoyed it

4/5

Really liked this one! Bluesy and fun!

Decent record… for disco. Not a fan of disco in general.

Deep Purple In Rock

Deep Purple

4/5

Liked it overall, a little less screaming maybe, but musically great.

Title track is a classic, the rest was a little underwhelming. Okay, but overrated

1/5

I really disliked this album. I have no other words

British Steel

Judas Priest

4/5

Classic album, I knew more of this album than I remembered. It was great

Crazysexycool

TLC

2/5

With the exception of the nostalgia I hold for Creep and Waterfalls, and despite not knowing that Phife was in the Intro, this album kinda sucked

White Blood Cells

The White Stripes

5/5

I love this album, I love The White Stripes and Jack White. I have listened to this album so many times.

Queen II

Queen

2/5

I like Queen, but this isn’t the Queen I like

Histoire De Melody Nelson

Serge Gainsbourg

3/5

Musically pretty good. I don’t speak French, so it loses something, I’m sure.

Ágætis Byrjun

Sigur Rós

3/5

Good for background music. Not at all what I was expecting!

Teenage me probably would have liked this, as it stands, just ok.

The Psychedelic Furs

2/5

Meh

Classic album! Loved it

Pearl

Janis Joplin

5/5

Another classic album, containing, imo, the very best version of Bobby McGee recorded

1/5

Weird, I am not sure who this is for. Singer’s voice is strange, the songs are long and overall it just kinda sucked

In Utero

Nirvana

4/5

Great album, wasn’t listening to Nirvana as much when this came out, so I was pleasantly surprised

Weather Report

3/5

I love Birdland, but the rest of the album really didn’t do it for me

Heaven Or Las Vegas

Cocteau Twins

1/5

Not my jam at all!

1/5

Not a fan

I think this is severely overrated. I kind of hated it

Beauty And The Beat

The Go-Go's

3/5

Nothing offensive to my musical senses, a little pop, a little punk, a little experimentation. Okay

Me Against The World

2Pac

3/5

Personally, I’ve always thought 2Pac was overrated. That said, it’s not bad. Just not the 5 stars I’m sure it gets.

3/5

Never heard of them, took way too long to realize Rod Stewart was involved. Not bad
