Popular Reviews

A fantastic sophomore album from Bob Dylan with several classic songs in the protest/folk vein. On this album you will listen to what was about to come on his ensuing albums of the 60s as far as song content. Reflections and commentary on social injustices. More importantly a continuing running theme of lost love songs.

The Velvet Underground by The Velvet Underground

They are pretty boring without Nico and JJ Cale. Pale Nlue Eyes and I'm Beginning to See The Light standout.

Great musicianship by this band blending rock pop soul RnB and jazz genres. Cool soul singing capturing city life and the streets of America.

Live! by Fela Kuti
Jun 21 2026

Great album

Juju by Siouxsie And The Banshees
Jun 23 2026
White Light by Gene Clark
Jun 24 2026

Gene Clark is a fine writer. Some nice tunes on here. Nothing that made the charts in it's time but his songs are what they call adult contemporary.

Black Sabbath by Black Sabbath
Jun 25 2026

A fantastic debut album from Ozzie and the band. Great musicianship well written songs and Ozzie is at his best as lead singer.

Wild Gift by X
Jun 26 2026

A solid opening release showing promise and potential. A ez listening album with a variety of musical genres.

Jun 27 2026

A fantastic sophomore album from Bob Dylan with several classic songs in the protest/folk vein. On this album you will listen to what was about to come on his ensuing albums of the 60s as far as song content. Reflections and commentary on social injustices. More importantly a continuing running theme of lost love songs.

Happy Sad by Tim Buckley
Jun 28 2026

Different from previous albums. Jazzy and experimental for the era. Stretching out into avant-garde and not as lyrically strong. Nice listen on a quiet evening.

Fishscale by Ghostface Killah
Jun 29 2026

Some great stuff on here. Good mix of rap hip hop and storytelling.

Reggatta De Blanc by The Police
Jun 30 2026

A solid sophomore effort. 3 great songs and some nice musical numbers.

Soul Mining by The The
Jul 02 2026

Surprisingly good album. Diverse songs covering many musical genre. Some songs I thought I was listening to Bowie.

Rust Never Sleeps by Neil Young & Crazy Horse
Jul 04 2026

An excellent album by Neil n Crazy Horse. Some nice ballads a homage to rock n roll and his grungy Powderfinger. Always singing about social issues too.

The Velvet Underground by The Velvet Underground
Jul 06 2026

They are pretty boring without Nico and JJ Cale. Pale Nlue Eyes and I'm Beginning to See The Light standout.

Dog Man Star by Suede
Jul 08 2026

I liked this album. Very listenable with soft tender melodies with an edge to them. Some sound Bowie like. They keep it edgy with some of their longer pieces.

Jul 09 2026

This album started out with what I thought would be potentially at least interesting but turned out to be a completely boring production. Nice cover though.

Sea Change by Beck
Jul 10 2026

Chilled depressed out break up album.

Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys
Jul 11 2026

A classic with my favorite song of theirs' Sloop John B. Quite possibly the most perfect album ever.

Pearl by Janis Joplin
Jul 13 2026

This was her crowning glory and unfortunately she didn't get to bask in it for one second. Highlights are Me n Bobby McGee Mercedes Benz Move Over opening track and the closing track Get It While You Can. She can really belt it out on some tracks usually the better known tunes. On the others it sometimes sounds like cauterwaling. I like her though.

Tarkus by Emerson, Lake & Palmer
Jul 15 2026

A solid release from this group extending their innovative style of classical/jazz/rock blended with intelligent thought provoking lyrical styles of Lake/Sinfield.

Jul 16 2026

How innovative thus album was. Great sounds coming from the studio as the band members explore different techniques on reverb and recording methods. Sound playing from the band too.

Trafalgar by Bee Gees
Jul 17 2026

I was very disappointed with this album. All it had was the great single release How Can You Mend....

Doggystyle by Snoop Dogg
Jul 18 2026

I like Snoop Dog and his style

Coat Of Many Colors by Dolly Parton
Jul 20 2026

Some well written songs on here some with a twist of humor. Dolly has a great voice with that classic country flavor to it.

Life's Too Good by The Sugarcubes
Jul 23 2026

Bjorks voice is phenomenal. Their music is so interesting compared to what was going on in this time frame.

Brilliant Corners by Thelonious Monk
Jul 25 2026

What a style he had. Not a big piano lover but T. Monk was as kool as Miles. Might go get me a beret and some hip glasses.

Shalimar by Rahul Dev Burman
Jul 26 2026

Some nice songs on here. Popular Indian music is overlooked in the west. They have some really good singers on here.

Let England Shake by PJ Harvey
Jul 27 2026

I liked the musical atmosphere created on this album. Lyrics are simple but thought provoking and PJs voice is eerily angelic.

The College Dropout by Kanye West
Jul 29 2026

Despite all the help it's only a mediocre debut album perhaps he grows with his future releases.

Beautiful Freak by Eels
Jul 30 2026

I really liked this album very chill. Nice atmospheric music.

Jul 31 2026

This is a solid effort by a great American singer and songwriter. An album full of love songs some covers and some self penned. A very nice listen.

Mothership Connection by Parliament
Aug 01 2026

Get out the funk. Great music grooves with a concept so original it's outrageous. Get up and dance with WFUCK!!

The Only Ones by The Only Ones
Aug 03 2026

Well they certainly have a unique sound remind me of the Kinks. Nothing really jumped out though on their debut album.

Hot Fuss by The Killers
Aug 04 2026

Really liked this debut album. Good solid rock with that pinky feel to it.

You're Living All Over Me by Dinosaur Jr.
Aug 05 2026

They have a grungy sound and you can hear their influence on the 90s grunge scene.

Pink Moon by Nick Drake
Aug 06 2026

I feel his 3rd release is not as good as his 1st 2 albums. Still a good listen and it was very daring to go it alone just him b his guitar.

Aug 07 2026

Th8s man has a great voice full of soul and emotion. Some great covers here and he performs them well.

Endtroducing..... by DJ Shadow
Aug 08 2026

This album was surprisingly enjoyable. It creates a nice relaxing chill out atmosphere. Done without instrumentation which is amazing

Graceland by Paul Simon
Aug 09 2026

An excellent album from a master songwriter. A diverse cultural adventure with a tongue in cheek sense of humor. Beautiful singing and excellent musicianship.

What can you say about this British group who are the ultimate songwriters of English life. Very underrated and yet they consistently charted with one hit after another. How can you not like a rick band who were banned from America.

Aug 11 2026

Very possibly the greatest rock album ever made. Innovative unique recording techniques and excellent musicianship. Thoughtful sensitive lyrics and a nice psycedelic sound. Alan Parsons as the engineer was a big plus.

Histoire De Melody Nelson by Serge Gainsbourg
Aug 13 2026

This was very interesting and I enjoyed it. Sets a mood for being in 60s Paris. He is very talented. Sure I have heard some of his music on French movie soundtracks.

Rumours by Fleetwood Mac
Aug 14 2026

A stacked album with hit songs from the opener to the closer. The Mac were a finely tuned musical group on this one.

Channel Orange by Frank Ocean
Aug 15 2026

Never heard of this guy but this is a lush album well produced. A nice chill out LP for after work or a slow weekend. It helps to have Pharrell Williams assisting you too.

Le Tigre by Le Tigre
Aug 16 2026

An enjoyable listen with a refreshing delivery of basic rock n roll songs some with a twist of humor. Very likable.

Aug 17 2026

This is a solid effort from this English band. Some well written songs.

A Love Supreme by John Coltrane
Aug 18 2026

A fantastic album. One of the best jazz albums ever.

Aug 19 2026

I like 50 cent body of work on this LP. He has a good delivery and some decent lyrics. Nothing going on here but gangsta. I'm sure it helped signing onto Eminems label and his experience helped.
