Green Day

3/5

Crisp and excellently written pop-punk. I made fun of this kind of music so relentlessly when it first came out, and now I really just appreciate “good tunes.” I do think some of the political/concept album stuff is still pretty cheesy and think the horrible musical nullifies some of its legacy. The gulf of quality between singles and the rest is pretty noticeable for me, too.

James Brown Live At The Apollo

James Brown

2/5

Somehow, this record makes James Brown seem kind of "generic and boring"! What in the world!

Elvis Presley

4/5

Yes, I totally get it

Different Class

Pulp

1/5

Not for me!

Tracy Chapman
