Station To Station

David Bowie

4/5

Melodic and magical and full of soul and life and sadness and glee. This was a journey I really enjoyed taking.

Vol. 4

Black Sabbath

5/5

Legendary wails, iconic vocals, funky beats...the song 'Changes'. Absolutely mental that this album came out 50 years ago because if it came out today it would be just as iconic. Trailblazer for the metal genre. What an absolute dream of an album.

One Nation Under A Groove

Funkadelic

3/5

great sound, lots of soul, and overall very funky and enjoyable. butttt i did find the songs a bit repetitive and long at times. long album.

Brothers In Arms

Dire Straits

4/5

Money for Nothing is SUCH a banger but the whole album is really enjoyable

Tapestry

Carole King

3/5

didn't realize 2 songs I knew of were on this album! Wonderful listen.

Disraeli Gears

Cream

4/5

funky and groovy and super cool

Copper Blue

Sugar

2/5

sounds like all of the 90's music I never listened to because I didn't care for it. Technically it's very good, but I don't like the singers voice very much and I didn't find the album very compelling.

Roots

Sepultura

5/5

what an absolute treat to discover 30 years after the fact. Incredible album incredible band. Absolute banger.

Catch A Fire

Bob Marley & The Wailers

4/5

exactly what I needed to lift me up

We're Only In It For The Money

The Mothers Of Invention

3/5

I found this enjoyable in a different way. Very funny and interesting. I laughed out loud several times and really appreciated my time with this album. That said - I don't really see it as a casual listen that I could find myself putting on for normal enjoyment. Overall quite a trip.

Vulnicura

Björk

3/5

Sometimes chaotic, sometimes beautiful, sometimes kinda annoying. But overall a pretty unique and interesting package that makes me want to try out some more Björk.

Smash

The Offspring

5/5

absolute banger of an album and i cannot get enough of it

The Stone Roses

1/5

so boring i could barely get through it!

Who Killed...... The Zutons?

The Zutons

3/5

Lots of fun and energy! Enjoyed it

Moby Grape

3/5

Quintessential old school rock vibes. This album sounds like how a thrift store record smells.

Never Mind The Bollocks, Here’s The Sex Pistols

Sex Pistols

4/5

Raunchy and fun I love it

Hard Again

Muddy Waters

4/5

Classic blues. Just what I needed on a rainy dreary Tuesday.

Oracular Spectacular

MGMT

4/5

Solid. Didn’t expect to like it but it’s good vibes

Hejira

Joni Mitchell

1/5

It sounds great but it’s just not for me. I don’t love how it often felt like one long, boring song.

Power In Numbers

Jurassic 5

4/5

Great flow great beats great album

Penance Soiree

The Icarus Line

3/5

Unexpectedly rips! Never even heard of this band but I dig it

Remain In Light

Talking Heads

3/5

Fun and upbeat I dig it and will try out more of their stuff

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

4/5

This rocked way harder than I was expecting. Not the dad rock I anticipated

1999

Prince

4/5

My stepmom loves Prince so I've heard a lot of his stuff over the years and always thought it was decent enough. I wasn't expecting to enjoy this as much as I did though! Funky and fun, technically impressive, and overall a very good time listening to this.

Space Ritual

Hawkwind

1/5

One single drum beat over and over across an entire album full of 7+ minute songs, with uninteresting vocals, and a few solid guitar riffs. I definitely did not need to listen to this album before I died.

São Paulo Confessions

Suba

2/5

Fine just not for me

The World is a Ghetto

War

3/5

Pretty good, I liked it enough to potentially listen to it again if it comes up in a playlist

Imagine

John Lennon

3/5

As much as I’d like to give it 5 stars, ‘Jealous Guy’ is kinda messed up knowing what I know about John Lennon, and ‘Oh Yoko!’ is a big miss for me.

Desperate Youth, Blood Thirsty Babes

TV On The Radio

3/5

Much cooler than I expected it to be

Bat Out Of Hell

Meat Loaf

4/5

Quite an operatic experience overall, which I always find myself appreciating. There's such a weird dichotomy, though, between the badass cover and album title and the artists name being Meat Loaf and being a guy who does not appear to be badass at all.

Fulfillingness' First Finale

Stevie Wonder

4/5

Delightful

Murder Ballads

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

4/5

It took a couple of songs for this to grow on me, but grow on me it did! Loved the storytelling throughout the album.

Slippery When Wet

Bon Jovi

4/5

Full of classics even if I’m not a huge Bon Jovi guy

Document

R.E.M.

1/5

Some real lame shit if you ask me

Modern Kosmology

Jane Weaver

2/5

It’s not terrible but also not memorable and not really for me

Third/Sister Lovers

Big Star

2/5

Meh, it was fine I guess but kinda boring

Blood Sugar Sex Magik

Red Hot Chili Peppers

4/5

I really enjoyed my time with it but 17 songs felt like a lot at times

Mott

Mott The Hoople

3/5

They’re solid enough but they do also sound like several other better bands all at the same time

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road

Elton John

4/5

This album is like being in a wonderful dream until Jamaican Jerk-Off rips you out of that dream and then you have to spend the next 10 mins trying to fall back asleep

Rock 'N Soul

Solomon Burke

4/5

Classic rock and blues sound

This Is Fats Domino

Fats Domino

3/5

Good vibes classic sound I dig it

Peter Gabriel

4/5

Surprisingly a banger!

Jack Takes the Floor

As a white stripes lover I really enjoyed hearing the influence Jack had on Jack

4/5

Phenomenal voice and vibes

Pills 'n' Thrills And Bellyaches

Happy Mondays

2/5

Just not really for me

Van Halen

4/5

What’s not to love??

Coat Of Many Colors

Dolly Parton

5/5

The voice of an angel!

Fear Of A Black Planet

Public Enemy

4/5

Solid

Sound Affects

The Jam

3/5

It was fine but not super memorable for me

B-52's

The B-52's

2/5

I wanted to like it more than I actually liked it. The vocals can be grating and their shtick wore thin by the end. Overall not a terrible band in small doses, but listening to the entire album is not the way.

Physical Graffiti

Led Zeppelin

4/5

Love Zeppelin but curious why this album is on the list. Are there more? Zeppelin II is better.

Time Out

The Dave Brubeck Quartet

2/5

This is some cocktail hour mingling music. Some conference call hold music. Department store music. Pre-dancing wedding music.

Savane

Ali Farka Touré

4/5

I really vibed with this

Brutal Youth

Elvis Costello

1/5

My Generation

The Who

3/5

Im sorry how many songs was it? 30? Good lord. I enjoyed it for the most part but that’s a bit much for any band

LP1

FKA twigs

3/5

Cool vibes I like it

Real Life

Magazine

4/5

I wasn’t expecting much and I was pleasantly surprised!

Elephant

The White Stripes

5/5

Best Stripes album. Listening to it is like putting on a comfortable old hoodie that smells like home. I can’t possibly count how many times I’ve listened to this album over the years but every time I do I am reminded of how brilliant it is.

Marquee Moon

Television

3/5

Decent

Kimono My House

Sparks

5/5

So good and unexpected! Amazing

Triangle

The Beau Brummels

3/5

Very Beatlesy which is kinda interesting I guess
