The Score

Fugees

5/5

Masterclass in tasteful sampling

Court And Spark

Joni Mitchell

5/5

Incredible spring album — “like a church like a cop like my mother you wanted me to be truthful” wow

Rust Never Sleeps

Neil Young & Crazy Horse

3/5

I love 70s music — storytelling unmatched really. This wasn’t totally my cup of tea but I can see how it was popular when it released

All Directions

The Temptations

3/5

“Papa Was a Rolling Stone” was so long, but generally I like Motown

Automatic For The People

R.E.M.

5/5

Obsessed with this honestly

Pretenders

2/5

I did not like this very much; this is one of the 80s vibes that made me say I hated 80s music when I was younger. The rage I felt when “Brass In Pocket” started (one of my least favorite songs of all time) was incredible. The last track, “Mystery Achievement”, did some heavy lifting for that second star. I skipped listening to the entirety of the deluxe version that Spotify offered, nay, threatened, me with.

Siamese Dream

The Smashing Pumpkins

4/5

Used to not love The Smashing Pumpkins but I think I get it now — will re-listen.

Club Classics Vol. One

Soul II Soul

2/5

Didn’t love this

Home Is Where The Music Is

Hugh Masekela

3/5

I famously dislike jazz

Catch A Fire

Bob Marley & The Wailers

5/5

I famously love reggae

Beautiful Freak

Eels

4/5

Loved this — scratched the Death Cab itch

Transformer

Lou Reed

1/5

Not only was this annoying to listen to but he was also kinda a terrible person and it bleeds though here

Bitches Brew

Miles Davis

1/5

Again a jazz hater till I die

Crossing the Red Sea With the Adverts

The Adverts

3/5

This was okay — regular old British punk

m b v

My Bloody Valentine

5/5

Loved this — shoegaze is my bread and butter

B-52's

The B-52's

4/5

Soft spot in my heart for this band

Music From Big Pink

The Band

4/5

70s rock strikes again and hits a home run

Apple Venus Volume 1

XTC

4/5

Pleasantly surprised, the instrument choices were so interesting. I’d never listened to anything like this before! Helped change my mind on some of my negative opinions toward British post punk

Hot Buttered Soul

Isaac Hayes

4/5

I really enjoyed this, I was daunted by how long each track was initially but they didn’t sound like they went on forever through the listen

Third

Soft Machine

1/5

“There’s no option to give you a zero so I give you a one”. Dissonant, unsettling, lost the plot

Live 1966 (The Royal Albert Hall Concert)

Bob Dylan

3/5

I know he’s an icon but I can never get over the cadence of his vocals, but it was still cool to hear everyone having a good time in the background - additionally the choice to leave the post-show music playing for a few seconds after he finished his set was so cool

Off The Wall

Michael Jackson

4/5

Had a great time!

Queens of the Stone Age

Queens Of The Stone Age

5/5

Great classic rock album

Unknown Pleasures

Joy Division

5/5

One of my favorite albums of all time, and the first album I’d already listened to before!
