Sticky Fingers

The Rolling Stones

2/5

Not really a fan. There are a few stand-out songs on here like Brown Sugar & Wild Horses, but other than that, it feels kind of samey and overall uninteresting to me. Not something I hate, but probably wouldn't listen to it again.

Fragile

Yes

4/5

Very much enjoyed the instrumental interludes and the heavy focus on instrumentals throughout, even in the longer songs. Very pleasant to listen (and of course, Roundabout is a classic!)

The Bends

Radiohead

4/5

Something that I probably wouldn't listen to regularly, but I feel the music's emotions very heavily. I like it when things can invoke that kind of feeling in me. Good album.

Head Hunters

Herbie Hancock

5/5

First of all, Jazz Fusion is one of my most cherished genres, if not my absolute favorite genre of all time. The second I pressed play, I knew I was in for a TREAT. Chameleon was quite a long song. I've seen some more modern jazz fusion albums have songs spanning from 6 to 10 minutes, but 15 is pretty long. That's never an issue for me in these types of albums though. The flow and the continuously changing "sound" of the individual song keeps it captivating enough to not become boring or overstay its welcome. And honestly, I think it's a great talent to have to be able to make a 15 minute song without making it too repetitive or boring (though I may be a tad biased). Last few minutes made me think of "Raisins" by Ryo Kawasaki, and honestly, probably just because of the uptick in sheer funk. My favorite jazz fusion albums are ones where you can't tell where one song ends and another starts. I feel like this has some pretty clear boundaries, but don't get it twisted---there are very few instances where I would ever give a jazz fusion album less than a 10/10. Also, first few minutes of Vein Melter sounds like LA Noire main menu music? I like.

Band On The Run

Paul McCartney and Wings

3/5

It's... interesting? Band on the run is still a great song though.

Green Onions

Booker T. & The MG's

4/5

Woah I think I do like instrumentals quite a bit. This was very pleasant to listen to.

Paul's Boutique

Beastie Boys

5/5

Peak from start to finish, and I found myself bopping my head to the songs quite a bit throughout. The beats and the lyrics are just absolutely splendid. Can't go wrong with some boys from the city!
