Loved this, can't believe I've never heard of her before. Not a fan of the weird duet.

Love this album. Fun to listen to while cooking....bopped around the kitchen like I did when I first listened to them as a teen.

Led Zeppelin

3/5

I liked it more than I thought I would. Listened with hubby and it was very nostalgic for him. My mom saw them at a tiny hall at Harvard on this tour and she met the band. It was fun talking to her about that experience.... She remembers what she wore and where she sat. It brought a big giggly smile to her face.

Tres Hombres

ZZ Top

1/5

So repetitive. Lyrics felt like an afterthought attached to a bunch of guitar jamming.

Apocalypse Dudes

Blah.

Rio

Duran Duran

1/5

Ok, so I loved this album when it came out. I could barely stand to listen to it now. Some of the music is pretty interesting but the singing and lyrics are so awful. I wondered if I liked them because everyone else did or because they were cute it I was a stupid teenager.

Strangeways, Here We Come

The Smiths

4/5

This was an album that was very important to me in high school. My brother loved the Smiths and had already seen them on tour. I remember a lot of sitting in my room listening to their songs and wallowing in my depression. It was actually great for me to listen to right now again and not feel that way about it. I really loved Unhappy Birthday. I also have vivid memories of seeing them on tour at some point at Great woods. I even remember what I wore. I wish Morrissey hadn't turned out to be such a douche.

Hybrid Theory

Linkin Park

Enjoyed this. Some songs a bit too long for me .. Eleven minutes! 😬

S&M

Metallica

Yuck. No more metal please.

Smash

The Offspring

1/5

I was only familiar with one song which I had never liked. Still sticking by that opinion. Not a fan of the rest either. They all sound the same to me. I felt like I needed to get out a skateboard and be angry.

Boston

2/5

Fulfillingness' First Finale

Stevie Wonder

3/5

Led Zeppelin IV

Led Zeppelin

5/5

I'm absolutely shocked that I love this album as much as I did. I've never really been into Led Zeppelin but this really resonated with me and fit perfectly with my mood. I love how each song sounds so different but still carries their sound. This had me wishing I had a much better way to listen to music other than a Bluetooth speaker for my phone.

White Light / White Heat

The Velvet Underground

1/5

Blah. Find out annoying at best

Miriam Makeba

5/5

Loved this, can't believe I've never heard of her before. Not a fan of the weird duet.

Surf's Up

The Beach Boys

1/5

I didn't enjoy this at all.

Red Dirt Girl

Emmylou Harris

3/5

New Wave

The Auteurs

1/5

The Doors

2/5

Another album I felt like I was supposed to love. His voice is beautiful but I found the lyrics mostly uninteresting and the music repetitive.

The Man Machine

Kraftwerk

3/5

I like the first couple of songs and enjoyed reading about their immersive art concept. I had only heard one or two of the songs before. Seems like they were very much ahead of their time

1999

Prince

5/5

No surprise to anyone who knows me... I love this album. It's not my favorite Prince album but it's a great one. My only note would be that the songs are too long but that might be because I have no patience these days. I discovered something new that I didn't notice when I was 11... The cover, designed by Vanity, uses a big dildo for the number one. The things you learn as you age...
