Born To Run by Bruce Springsteen
Apr 06 2026

First time ever listening to this album. Pretty easy listen. Liked the last song.

Celebrity Skin by Hole
Apr 07 2026

So, I knew nothing about Hole. We played celebrity skin on either guitar hero or rock band. Celebrity Skin is pretty good but the rest of the album is just not that great for my listening tastes.

The ArchAndroid by Janelle Monáe
Apr 08 2026

Wow. Wasn’t sure what to expect with this album. Janelle Monae has a beautiful voice. This kind of reminds me of Yes when they were in concert. I’m writing this before I check on who Janelle is and what this album is all about. Kind of a cool sound to keep in the background when you are working or playing a game.

2112 by Rush
Apr 09 2026

I didn’t appreciate Rush until I went to a concert. They blew me away.

Play by Moby
Apr 10 2026

Pretty cool that Moby did all the music by himself. Kind of a long album but nice to hear the different sounds and songs.

Songs For Swingin' Lovers! by Frank Sinatra
Apr 11 2026

I’m not a big Sinatra fan. He has a great voice and it was a good time growing up when he and the rat pack were together. Just because I don’t like him shouldn’t affect how I feel about his music in general.

Exit Planet Dust by The Chemical Brothers
Apr 12 2026

Great sound. I’ve never listened to them before.

1989 by Taylor Swift
Apr 13 2026

Taylor swift is her own person and doesn’t care what others think about her. She seems to take care of the people around her. Her music is not for me but it’s since it’s geared to a younger audience.

The Velvet Underground by The Velvet Underground
Apr 14 2026

The last song was the best. Didn’t realize Lou reed was in the band.

The Doors by The Doors
Apr 15 2026

Great album with great songs. I love the organ music and play this when I was to take a nostalgia trip.

Bright Flight by Silver Jews
Apr 16 2026

Interesting, never heard of this band.

Fragile by Yes
Apr 17 2026

Saw them in concert when they were older but the sound was still there. Great voices and great musicians. I had an album by Rik Wakeman and didn’t realize he was with Yes until years later.

After The Gold Rush by Neil Young
Apr 18 2026

Great album. I like Preludes version of after the gold rush. Heard it before I know Neil sang it.

Dirty by Sonic Youth
Apr 20 2026

It was ok. Kind of a punk sound.

Unknown Pleasures by Joy Division
Apr 21 2026

Joy division did not bring me much joy.

More Specials by The Specials
Apr 22 2026

Reggae and ska mixed with a little punk.

American Idiot by Green Day
Apr 23 2026

I remember the boys listening to this album. Pretty good listen.

Blackstar by David Bowie
Apr 25 2026

It’s Bowie. Different but cool sound.

What's Going On by Marvin Gaye
Apr 26 2026

One of the greatest albums ever. His words meant a lot then and still do to this day.

Hard Again by Muddy Waters
Apr 28 2026

A lot of modern music came from copying Muddy Waters style. Thank goodness as he created a great sound.

Apr 30 2026

The album reminds me of Saturday Nights in Cambridge City when it was late in the bar and people would be dancing to this sound. It was depressing. Some of the lyrics were interesting but I still don’t like twangy country music.

Hotel California by Eagles
May 02 2026

1977 I was a senior in high school dating the leading lady in the play. We went to the prom together. Hotel California came on the radio when we were in Doug Huntsman car. Come to find out she wanted to go with him. I wasn’t mad about her being with him but I was mad because it blew my chance with Sherry Williams. Found out she said she wanted to go with me. I still get angry when this song comes on. The album was great and is a good listen even if it reminds you of Terry Hetismeir and her cigarette smoking self. LOL

Actually by Pet Shop Boys
May 04 2026

I like the Pet Shop Boys sound. You can beat West End Girls and What Have i Done to Deserve This. It was nice to hear the entire album.

OK Computer by Radiohead
May 05 2026

Good album for a rainy Monday morning. It’s kind of depressing music. It was not that enjoyable.

Fire Of Love by The Gun Club
May 06 2026

What a nice surprise with this album. Nice punk roots along with the jazz sound. Would have been fun to see them in a small club.

Armed Forces by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
May 08 2026

Not a bad album.

The Clash by The Clash
May 09 2026

I imagine it was cool to watch them in the clubs back in the 70’s. I like the shorter songs and the speed. Great album.

Boston by Boston
May 10 2026

This is one album where every song was a hit. One of the greatest albums of all time.

Suede by Suede
May 11 2026

Sorry didn’t like it.

The Rising by Bruce Springsteen
May 13 2026

Nice album by Bruce.

Aftermath by The Rolling Stones
May 14 2026

Nice to hear the early stones. I like the bluesy mix on some songs.

Nilsson Schmilsson by Harry Nilsson
May 16 2026

Nilsson was a troubled man. I don’t understand how so many people in this profession are so unhappy. Seems like a great way to make a living. Maybe they take things too seriously for their own good. It’s a good album but is it a great album?

Wild Is The Wind by Nina Simone
May 17 2026

Didn’t quite make it through it.

May 18 2026

Great album. Made country rock what it is today. Free Bird was a great song to slow dance to in High School. The only bad thing about that song is that Jen-nay almost jumped from the hotel room balcony.

Birth Of The Cool by Miles Davis
May 19 2026

As a trumpet player myself you gotta love Miles Davis. His music is very cool. It must have been fun seeing him in the clubs and chilling with the music.

Vivid by Living Colour
May 22 2026
Innervisions by Stevie Wonder
May 23 2026

Excellent album.

The Message by Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five
May 24 2026

Good album.

Back In Black by AC/DC
May 25 2026

One of the best albums ever.

Next by The Sensational Alex Harvey Band
May 28 2026

Did not like it.

Debut by Björk
Jun 06 2026
Strange Cargo III by William Orbit
Jun 07 2026

Good background music when working on something.

The Wall by Pink Floyd
Jun 09 2026

Never listened to this album when I was growing up.

LP1 by FKA twigs
Jun 11 2026
California by American Music Club
Jun 15 2026

Did not like it.

Blue by Joni Mitchell
Jun 16 2026

Great singer great songwriter.

Low-Life by New Order
Jun 21 2026

Not bad.

Dirt by Alice In Chains
Jun 23 2026
Liege And Lief by Fairport Convention
Jun 24 2026

For some reason this album was a nice mix for me. I like a good folk kind of sound.

Beggars Banquet by The Rolling Stones
Jun 26 2026

Good album, not a great album.

Funeral by Arcade Fire
Jun 28 2026

Ok album.

Odessa by Bee Gees
Jun 29 2026

Different vibe for The Bee Gees.

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
Jul 07 2026
Dance Mania by Tito Puente
Jul 17 2026

“and than you play those stupid Tito Puente albums until 2 in the morning.” Tito Puente’s gonna be dead and you’re gonna say “Oh I’ve been listening to him for years and I think he’s fabulous.” Great Album

Siembra by Willie Colón & Rubén Blades
Jul 21 2026
D by White Denim
Aug 03 2026
Bongo Rock by Incredible Bongo Band
Aug 13 2026

Didn’t really like it
