Catch A Fire

Bob Marley & The Wailers

4/5

eventhough I've listened to a lot of Bob Marley, I never listened to this particular album. I enjoyed it very much, easily a timeless classic.

American Idiot

Green Day

4/5

used to listen to it as a pre-teen so it took me back to those times. I don't listen to music like that anymore but I realized that I still enjoy it. -1 star because I couldn't listen to it again today or the next few weeks ;)

A Night At The Opera

Queen

3/5

Never listened to the full album - I liked it but also because I have a lot of respect for Queen's legacy. I guess it's not my favorite genre, but good to know!

Green River

Creedence Clearwater Revival

4/5

I can really feel my music knowledge expanding, it's amazing! I probably would've never found that group, don't know if my parents even listened to them. I liked the mix of country, rock and funk elements, but sadly "Susie Q" is not on this album - I discovered it afterwards!

Frank

Amy Winehouse

5/5

Beautiful album, I like it even more than Back to Black because it sounds a little more raw. I realized that I always had people in my life that would introduce me to really good music. I think I first heard this album on vacation with my friend and her parents, good memories!

Stardust

Willie Nelson

2/5

It's a no for me.. I know he has a legacy, but I couldn't get into the music.

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road

Elton John

4/5

Forever Changes

Love

3/5

did not listen entirely but not my favorite, although I can imagine they were important in their days!

Hot Fuss

The Killers

3/5

Untitled (Black Is)

SAULT

4/5

Merriweather Post Pavilion

Animal Collective

2/5

liked the second half more but it’s still a kind of indie music I‘m not a big fan of

Call of the Valley

Shivkumar Sharma

4/5

yess! instrumental albums for the win!

Inspiration Information

Shuggie Otis

5/5

I didn‘t know I knew his music! Beautiful, soulful and loooved the instrumentals!

Different Class

Pulp

3/5

Blackstar

David Bowie

1/5

glad I‘m not alone with my thoughts.. I don’t like Bowie‘s singing and listening to the album felt like hard work for me. I respect Bowie‘s legacy and the story behind Blackstar released like a goodbye-present is fascinating, but this album isn’t for me.

Ready To Die

The Notorious B.I.G.

2/5

I agree to a lot of the existing reviews I read. This album didn’t age well and while I can still acknowledge Biggies legacy I found the lyrics very disturbing. Also in 2026 I can’t ignore his close relationship to Diddy which leaves at least a weird feeling. I stick to my rap queens of this time Lil Kim, Queen Latifah, Foxy Brown, Missy Elliott….

Faith

George Michael

3/5

very 80s and I like it! Not every track is a #1 hit but overall it’s fun to listen to

Common

4/5

Kanye and Dilla produced this, so there’s no way this could be bad. (I know Kanye is a menace but he produced amazing music in the early 2000s)

Black Sabbath

1/5

I hate it. Whining men who can’t sing and just scream/talk 😒 ok the music gets better but it would be even better as an instrumental

Live At The Regal

B.B. King

3/5

yes, but the audio quality is poor, which is probably an age thing. but Blues will always speak to me, melancholic, heavy but still melodic

Illmatic

Nas

5/5

this wasn’t even the album that introduced me to Hip Hop but it shows me all the reasons why I fell in love with this genre. I feel weirdly connected to it because 1994 is my birth year, but I have no idea how New York City was in that era, thanks to Nas I get a feeling for it combined with creative lyrics and amazing samples.

Queen II

Queen

3/5

Qui sème le vent récolte le tempo

MC Solaar

3/5

Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea

PJ Harvey

2/5
