Low by David Bowie
Aug 17 2026

Lots of instrumentals on this album. Very mellow vibe. Good for background if meditating or something. The one or two songs with vocals I added to my playlists.

Tapestry by Carole King
Aug 18 2026

I never understood the appeal. There aren't any bad songs here, but they're all pretty boring. I would choose any Paul Williams album over this.

Beggars Banquet by The Rolling Stones
Aug 19 2026

I've never cared for the Rolling Stones. Some pretty boring, pretty standard rock music.

Elephant by The White Stripes
Aug 20 2026

Great album. Borrowed this from the library and played it on repeat the whole time it was out.

Mothership Connection by Parliament
Aug 21 2026

Eh. It was OK. All of the songs were too long and repetitive, though.

Moving Pictures by Rush
Aug 22 2026

A good album. Songs were long but not repetitive. I've heard all but maybe the last two songs before. I do most of my listening in the car, though, and this would stress me out in traffic.

So by Peter Gabriel
Aug 23 2026

I owned this at the time it was released. Didn't everybody? I remember liking it at the time. It's a good album, but was overplayed. Not something I feel like I need to hear again.

La Revancha Del Tango by Gotan Project
Aug 24 2026

Another okay, mostly instrumental album with overly long songs. Is this the only type of album this platform promotes? At least it was one I hadn't heard or heard of before. Although I don't really care for Latin music. And while it wasn't very traditional (a plus), the other, previously stated downsides made it a no.

Live! by Fela Kuti
Aug 26 2026

The first two songs were great. Then they got long. Although, I still didn't realize the third song was 13 minutes long until I looked. The drum solo I turned off early. Overall, would listen again.

Trio by Dolly Parton
Aug 27 2026

This was good, but sad, album to listen to the day after Dolly passed. Several of the songs referenced death and dying, and overall, the most of the songs felt like hymns. The voices were balanced, and none of the ladies stood out alone. It made me want to listen to more of her solo albums.

Fear Of A Black Planet by Public Enemy
Aug 29 2026

Wow! I'm ashamed to say I've never listened to any Public Enemy, other than anything I might have heard on the radio/tv. This is fantastic. The best album I've been served up so far.

Aug 30 2026

Only listened to a couple of songs. Take On Me is still fun. The rest that I heard I thought should be classified adult contemporary rather than pop. I didn't feel compelled to keep listening, although I enjoyed it well enough.

Darkness on the Edge of Town by Bruce Springsteen
Aug 31 2026

Ugh, Springsteen. No. (Ok, I'll probably listen, since it's one of his early albums, and I hear he's quite poetic, if you can get past his overplayed patriotic pap.) Edit: How is it even possible for a song about racing to put you to sleep? Everything is so slow paced.

The Man Machine by Kraftwerk
Sep 01 2026

A full album of mostly instrumental background music for sci-fi films. I don't think I'd listen again outside of that context. Was this groundbreaking at some point? It doesn't hold up.

Disintegration by The Cure
Sep 02 2026

What a great album. I thought the first song sounded a little dated, and could use some freshening up. But after that, the sound is integral to each piece, and freshening would not improve it.

Close To You by Carpenters
Sep 03 2026

It opens with Paul Williams, of course it's great. I enjoyed this MUCH more than Carol King's Tapestry.

Street Life by The Crusaders
Sep 04 2026

Enjoyed. Was surprised to hear a woman singing, as only the men were featured prominently on the cover.

Songs In The Key Of Life by Stevie Wonder
Sep 05 2026

A classic. Jamiroquai owes a huge debt to him. Everything I've heard from them sounds ripped straight from Stevie Wonder.

Stardust by Willie Nelson
Sep 09 2026

Probably one of the best albums ever recorded.

Go Girl Crazy by The Dictators
Sep 10 2026

Pretty good, not fast or hard enough. Sometimes kind of remind me of someone else. Maybe Jim Carrol, but I'm not sure. Subject matter is very different, though.
