All Ratings (91)

The Wall by Pink Floyd
Apr 30 2026

Rating:★★★★ Good concept album, lots of angry and scared lyrics, and the main character trying to escape and blame others for everything until it is no longer possible.

May 01 2026

Rating:★★★★ Never heard of this band before, but I dig the Irish folk/punk thing they have going. Music that makes you want to dance and think about what they're saying at the same time.

Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere by Neil Young & Crazy Horse
May 04 2026

Rating:★★★★ Nice Classic Rock album. Easy listening. I enjoyed the guitar solos.

Deep Purple In Rock by Deep Purple
May 05 2026

Rating:★★★★ Good classic rock. Lots of long solos, which are a favorite of mine. Kinda reminds me of Led Zeppelin, which is one of my favorite bands, so safe to say I enjoy the sound of this album.

The Atomic Mr Basie by Count Basie & His Orchestra
May 06 2026

Rating:★★★★ very nice jazz, I enjoyed listening to this album. great big band sound. also Count Basie has some early career roots in KC, which is known for very nice jazz music.

Definitely Maybe by Oasis
May 07 2026

Rating:★★★ Surprised me. Not bad at all. Most songs to me were nice to listen to and catchy. Nothing too crazy though.

May 08 2026

Rating:★★★★ Masterful example of rhyme, flow, and lyricism. The way they make these words tie together is astounding. Some of the lyrics make me think "why??", but those examples are few and far between. This is a great album, and you can really hear how this album inspired the future of hip hop and rap.

21 by Adele
May 10 2026

Rating:★★★★ Lots of hits. I remember half these songs from the radio growing up. Good, solid album overall

Mama's Gun by Erykah Badu
May 11 2026

Rating:★★★ Idk man, not my favorite. There were some great beats but I didn’t really dig the voice.

Maggot Brain by Funkadelic
May 12 2026

Rating:★★★★★ Legendary start to an album. Maggot Brain is a wild album. The titular song Maggot Brain was a wild ride, full of emotion. Big fan of the whole album, and I've only listed to it one time. Classic sound. Funkadelic.

The Doors by The Doors
May 13 2026

Rating:★★★★ Good album. Songs sounded a bit repetitive sometimes with the organ sound. Classic hits and a few new one's I haven't heard. Overall good.

Run-D.M.C. by Run-D.M.C.
May 14 2026

Rating:★★★ Most classic sounding rap I've ever heard. I assume this is where the beastie boys get their flow from. It's kinda cheesy to listen to nowadays but I bet back in the day it was the jam. I can respect that this changed a lot culturally. There were some rhymes in there that were pretty nice, and messages that are timeless in their meaning. Overall, decent album.

Fear Of Music by Talking Heads
May 15 2026

Rating:★★ Kinda forgettable. Liked Life During Wartime but otherwise a bit strange.

Dusty In Memphis by Dusty Springfield
May 16 2026

Rating:★★ ZZZ. Couple good songs. album must’ve caught me on a bad day, but I tried to listen to it two different days so maybe it’s just kinda boring.

War by U2
May 17 2026

Rating:★★★★ Classic Album. So many great songs that I find myself coming back to, so once I saw this album pop up, I knew I was in for a treat.

Faith by George Michael
May 18 2026

Rating:★★★ It's alright. A couple of songs like Father Figure and Faith were decent, the rest were a bit too much for me.

Illmatic by Nas
May 19 2026

Rating:★★★★ Poetry

The Sensual World by Kate Bush
May 20 2026

Rating: ★★ It's alright. not my style of music. random AH mention for some reason. otherwise, just some 80s piano pop that I find a little too slow for it to catch my attention in a way that makes me want to listen. she has an interesting way of singing.

No Other by Gene Clark
May 21 2026

Rating:★★★★ I liked this album. Nice classic rock.

The Suburbs by Arcade Fire
May 22 2026

Rating:★★★

Sound of Silver by LCD Soundsystem
May 23 2026

Rating:★★★ I liked this album ok. Might listen to a few songs again.

May 24 2026

Rating:★★★★ Loved it. I understand people being mad at some of the lyrics, and there were a few that make you scratch your head. Still a good album.

The Band by The Band
May 26 2026

Rating:★★★

Car Wheels On A Gravel Road by Lucinda Williams
May 27 2026

Rating:★★★ Finally, some country on here. Never heard this album before. Nice Writing, sometimes a bit boring in my opinion but otherwise I enjoyed it.

Happy Sad by Tim Buckley
May 28 2026

Rating:★★ Big fan of his son, glad they only met once so that this guy didn't rub off on Jeff.

The Cars by The Cars
May 30 2026

Rating:★★★★ Really good! Classic songs I remember listening to when my dad played them. Still as good as I remember!

The Slider by T. Rex
May 31 2026

Rating:★★★

C'est Chic by CHIC
Jun 02 2026

Rating:★★★★ Man lots of fun songs here. le freak is a classic, and the follow up in savoir faire surprised me. It wasn't as fun down the stretch in the last few songs but otherwise solid album.

Pacific Ocean Blue by Dennis Wilson
Jun 03 2026

Rating: ★★★★ Some nice songs here, surprised I'd never heard of this album. Really liked Pacific Ocean Blues, Dreamer, and Thoughts of You. Thoughts of You kind of reminded me of an early Coldplay song, which I am a big fan of. Overall solid. There were a couple points on the album where I found myself waiting to get to the next one, one example being Time. The wikipedia article on Dennis Wilson is interesting, but I don't really take any of that into my rating of the album.

Hotel California by Eagles
Jun 04 2026

Rating:★★★★ Classic. Lots of great songs here, not to mention the intro title track that everyone's heard on the radio. a great group of songs.

Nebraska by Bruce Springsteen
Jun 06 2026

Rating:★★★

Life's Too Good by The Sugarcubes
Jun 07 2026

Rating:★★★ Some good moments, some weird stuff, but who doesn’t like some weird stuff sometimes. This isn’t one of those times for me. Ok though.

Konnichiwa by Skepta
Jun 08 2026

Rating:★★★ A bit different than I am used to but that is the reason why I'm doing this whole One Album A Day thing. I liked a lot of the beats, and some very funny lyrics at points. Pharrell song made me laugh so that's probably the highlight of the album for me. Mid overall.

Five Leaves Left by Nick Drake
Jun 09 2026

Rating:★★★ Ok Album. I liked some of the songs, but I really liked the last song. Otherwise, lots of same sounding songs that made me zone out a bit.

Rock 'N Soul by Solomon Burke
Jun 10 2026

Rating:★★★ Pretty good old time soul music. Reminds me of some Fallout type music. Not to shabby at all.

Shaft by Isaac Hayes
Jun 11 2026

Rating:★★★ Nice Funk. Liked the guitar solos, and the sax solos were great! The end of Cafe Regio's was probably my favorite solo. Do Your Thing is my favorite song, I'm a sucker for long drawn out solos and the entire song is just a big jam session. Not sure why the other songs didn't resonate with me the same.

Aladdin Sane by David Bowie
Jun 12 2026

Rating:★★★ I liked Time and Aladdin Sane, and the rest had its moments. I don't dislike the album but it isn't great for me either.

Music in Exile by Songhoy Blues
Jun 13 2026

Very Nice! Some good blues mixed with some sounds I haven’t experienced before, but I can dig it!

Van Halen by Van Halen
Jun 16 2026

One of the best albums I've heard so far this experience. Loved the high voltage rock and roll.

Blood On The Tracks by Bob Dylan
Jun 19 2026

time to go listen to "Bob" by Weird Al Yankovic again...

Exodus by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Jun 20 2026

great album, three little birds best song

KIWANUKA by Michael Kiwanuka
Jun 21 2026

great surprise! liked the instrumentation

Iron Maiden by Iron Maiden
Jun 23 2026

It was good but not super good, I liked it for the most part but the day after listening to it, I cannot for the life of me remember any of the songs on the album except for Phantom of the Opera, so...

Frank by Amy Winehouse
Jun 24 2026

SIGH.... It was ok. Nothing too crazy. Hope I get something better soon, been serving me mid the last week or so

Tuesday Night Music Club by Sheryl Crow
Jun 25 2026

gotta give Mizzou legend Sheryl Crow her due, its a pretty decent album. got a classic with "All I Wanna Do", and a few other nice songs that I enjoyed.

Lady In Satin by Billie Holiday
Jun 26 2026

always wonderful to listen to. such an easy listen, soft jazz and beautiful singing.

Jun 28 2026

This album is hard to find, very few of the songs are on streaming, had to rely on good ol' YouTube for them. Overall, not as good as Maggot Brain but still awesome.

S&M by Metallica
Jul 01 2026

better than I thought, but not quite good enough for 5

Street Signs by Ozomatli
Jul 06 2026

So good, didn't know what to expect going in but I enjoyed it a lot!

You Want It Darker by Leonard Cohen
Jul 07 2026

you can tell it's his last album. It is fairly somber and melancholy sounding. Beautiful music but honestly I could not stand his "singing" voice. I can respect the art though.

Forever Changes by Love
Jul 09 2026

Classic Rock, little bit of Beatles style harmonizing and junk like that, fairly vanilla sounding rock for the 60s. Not bad, not amazing either.

Nixon by Lambchop
Jul 10 2026

milquetoast

Aftermath by The Rolling Stones
Jul 11 2026

MIDDD and besides the first song, don’t really appreciate the couple songs that have outdated views on women and they were boring too so

Melodrama by Lorde
Jul 14 2026

Surprised me on how much I enjoyed some of the songs. Almost all of them I can imagine being sung by another similar artist like Taylor Swift.

McCartney by Paul McCartney
Jul 15 2026

I enjoyed the homemade sound that this album has. A few great songs on here like That Would Be Something and Maybe I'm Amazed stood out to me. A few other songs that kind of resonated with me was Glasses, Man We Was Lonely, and Momma Miss America.

I enjoyed the flip from acoustic to electric halfway through. It is interesting reading about how audiences reacted back in those days when he started doing that. Unfortunately, streaming services these days took out a lot of the in-between crowd noise that was present on the physical versions of this album.

Future Days by Can
Jul 24 2026

Very Abstract and Calm. Moonshake was the standout to me on this album. Overall Solid but maybe a bit abstract for me at times.

Black Sabbath by Black Sabbath
Jul 25 2026

Amazing. I had heard the title track "Black Sabbath" before, and knew it was great, but the rest of the songs blew me away.

Chirping Crickets by Buddy Holly & The Crickets
Aug 03 2026

What a nice blast from the past. Some important tracks on here for the future of rock and roll, and just some nice, easy early rock listening.

Dire Straits by Dire Straits
Aug 10 2026

Loved this one, Second half is amazing.

16 Lovers Lane by The Go-Betweens
Aug 12 2026

There are a couple good songs on this album, but nothing groundbreaking for me. A lot of this album is songs that do not catch my interest or are just slow and plodding, all while saying nothing about anything.
