Abbey Road

Beatles

4/5

Very nostalgic to listen to this one again. Listened to this one quite a lot about ten years ago whilst gaming with my brother (Call of duty, Ghosts). I really like this album. It's not one I would listen to super often though, therefore the 4 stars.

L.A. Woman

The Doors

3/5

I like the music quite a bit. Very groovy. But I don't really like the singer's voice.

Moving Pictures

Rush

4/5

Some really good songs on this album. Really liked the voice of the singer. Sometimes a bit too busy for me music wise, but otherwise really good. Liked the guitar work!

Superfly

Curtis Mayfield

3/5

Liked the groovy vibes. Didn't like the singer's voice that much, it felt a bit forced.

Pink Moon

Nick Drake

4/5

Very chill vibes. Felt very relaxing.

OK Computer

Radiohead

2/5

Not for me. Too busy for my taste and singing felt forced

Peter Gabriel 3

Peter Gabriel

3/5

Very unique music. Didn't vibe fully with it. Liked the voice of the singer, but didn't like how the voice was altered.

Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs

Derek & The Dominos

3/5

Liked the guitars quite a bit. Voices were just okay. Fun album overall

Face to Face

The Kinks

4/5

This was really fun! Happy and chill vibes. Similar style to The Beatles. Really liked it and would probably listen to it again.

1984

Van Halen

4/5

Really enjoyed this one! Good guitar work, not too much. Like the singer's voice, but didn't love it. Could swing along a couple of times. Would listen to this one again.

Licensed To Ill

Beastie Boys

2/5

Liked some parts of the music. Did not like the singers/rappers at all. It felt like they were just screaming the whole time.

The Psychedelic Sounds of the 13th Floor Elevators

The 13th Floor Elevators

4/5

Fun album! Very happy which I like. Lyrics was sometimes a bit... Questionable maybe? But overall really enjoyed

The Velvet Underground

3/5

Liked the singer's voice and how the instruments were played. Too religious for me though

I’ve Got a Tiger By the Tail

Buck Owens

4/5

I always really like country music, so this was no exception! Recognized some songs, so that was fun. Would probably listen to this one again.

Os Mutantes

1/5

Very much not for me. Very chaotic. Sound was off (maybe because it's older, I don't know). Did not like the voices. They used different languages at least in one song, I really dislike when people do that. Something positive: they used unique instruments?

Pink Flag

Wire

3/5

Solid album. Did not do much for me.

Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots

The Flaming Lips

4/5

Really enjoyed this album! Liked that it had a theme throughout. Liked the vibes and the singer's voice. Think I would listen to this one again.

Haut de gamme / Koweït, rive gauche

Koffi Olomide

4/5

Very fun and happy album, which I really like. Danced along whilst listening. Would definitely listen to this one again!

The Trinity Session

Cowboy Junkies

4/5

Loved the singer's voice (finally a woman!). Really liked the sound of the music and the chill vibes. Thought I would maybe give this five stars, my first. But then the harmonica came in... Which is one of my least favorite instruments.

Synchronicity

The Police

5/5

This was fantastic! Immediately loved it. Liked how weird it was. Could dance along to the music, which is always a plus for me. Liked the voice of the singer quite a bit. Need to listen to it again to make sure it's actually five stars, but loved it! Listened to it again and yes favorite!

The Infotainment Scan

The Fall

4/5

Liked the music. Didn't really like the singer's voice. Still a good album. Some songs I really liked, so might listen to those but won't listen to the whole album I think

The Stooges

4/5

Liked the guitar a lot. Singer was sometimes good for me, sometimes less so. Really liked some songs, some not so much. Overall a solid album and I think I would listen to it again.

Chemtrails Over The Country Club

Lana Del Rey

2/5

Difficult to do a rating for this one. I absolutely hated the first song and even needed to skip it half way through. Which has not happened yet. Other songs were kind of okay, even good. I just did not like the singer's voice. Especially how she sang, it was very breathy. Not for me.

Brilliant Corners

Thelonious Monk

3/5

Liked this one! Swinging along whilst listening. Don't think I would listen to it again, but otherwise really solid.

Treasure

Cocteau Twins

3/5

Just okay

Porcupine

Echo And The Bunnymen

5/5

Loved this! Singer's voice made me think of Bowie a bit. It was very groovy and happy. Need to listen to it again to confirm my rating

The Wall

Pink Floyd

5/5

Another nostalgic album for me. I remember when I was about 10 years old, my dad and I listened to this album. For some reason I cried a lot whilst listening. Can't remember why. I do get it now that I listened to it again. This album has an emotional weight to it and you can really feel that.

More Songs About Buildings And Food

Talking Heads

4/5

Liked the music a lot! I think I could really like this band. Singer's voice was not completely for me, but nice enough to listen to! Will listen to this again

This Nation’s Saving Grace

The Fall

3/5

Just okay

Abraxas

Santana

4/5

Groovy. Would listen again

Tracy Chapman

5/5

New favorite singer! Love her voice. Very powerful lyrics. Music was great as well. Definitely listening to more of her

Butterfly

Mariah Carey

3/5

Liked the vibe. Voice was a bit too whiny for me. Won't listen to it again. Maybe other work from this singer

A Rush Of Blood To The Head

Coldplay

2/5

Sorry, but this guy sings out of tune right? It sounds like it. Don't understand that this band is so popular. Yes, the music is kind of nice. But I really can't listen to this

Third

Portishead

3/5

Really liked it at the beginning. But they added certain sounds that my ears definitely did not like

Duck Rock

Malcolm McLaren

3/5

Did not really want to rate this one. I really liked the music. Very fun and groovy. Could dance along. But the lyrics were... Questionable. First time I have noticed that with an album on here. The use of the word "female" over and over again. Some other lyrics that I'm like... Hmm. And the music feels strange for a white artist to make, but I might be missing something there. To close with something positive: did like that there was a main theme throughout the album and small things kept coming back.

Sticky Fingers

The Rolling Stones

4/5

I really like this band. Not super fan of the singer's voice. But they definitely have an original sound. Would definitely listen to this again

Fleet Foxes

4/5

Really loved this! This is singing! Very nice, chill vibe. Might become 5 stars after second listen
