The Smashing Pumpkins

5/5

Listened many times – great album.

Talking Heads

4/5

Surprised by the album. Some Talking Heads music feels too esoteric and arty for me to really enjoy. This is just joyous and feels like some of David Bowie's fun albums.

Music From Big Pink

The Band

4/5

Pink Floyd feel to it.

Raw Power

The Stooges

3/5

I can see why this was such a monumental album when it came out in the early 70s but it's just not for me. It's too raw and disjointed.

Born To Run

Bruce Springsteen

2/5

No matter the fanfare or lauding I hear about Bruce Springsteen, I just can't get over how it feels like just some guys uncle yelling at a wedding. I feel the same way about anyone with this kind of voice. Benson Boone, Hosier, Mumford & Sons. Stop yelling.

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill

Lauryn Hill

2/5

Long. Lots of filler. Only one or two highlights. I imagine when it came out it was revolutionary but there have been too many new albums that are better to make it worthwhile.

Darklands

The Jesus And Mary Chain

5/5

Our Aim Is To Satisfy

Red Snapper

2/5

Strong, but a bit too maximalist for me. I might've been burned by too many nights spent near trustafarians in Clifton, Bristol to enjoy this music.

Tracy Chapman

4/5

A Girl Called Dusty

Dusty Springfield

4/5

The Stranger

Billy Joel

5/5

1/5

So

Peter Gabriel

4/5

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

Beatles

5/5

Pet Sounds

The Beach Boys

5/5

Berlin

Lou Reed

3/5

Lou Reed's bored lilt might be endearing to some people, but it reminds me of the guys who are trying their best to be aloof and cool. That he was friends with someone as effortlessly cool with David Bowie when he made this album makes that worse. Musically a fun album, but not one that I loved.

Come Find Yourself

Fun Lovin' Criminals

4/5

S.F. Sorrow

The Pretty Things
