Green Onions by Booker T. & The MG's
Sep 01 2026

Instrumental album. Melodies that are so famous I had heard them a million times and never knew they came from that album! Something to keep handy for dancing sessions. Love it!

Back To Black by Amy Winehouse
Sep 02 2026

Amy was certainly a very talented singer. That album sounds a lot older that it actually is. Perfect for a lounge or a bar but not the kind of music I would enjoy listening at home.

Black Metal by Venom
Sep 03 2026

What can I say... it's hard metal. With the right mood it is a perfect addition to a gloomy ambience. I loved that kind of thing as a teenager, maybe not so much today (not so gloomy?).

Hot Fuss by The Killers
Sep 04 2026

Nothing original or interesting in that album unfortunately. I must have listened to a million similar albums in my life, this didn't surprise me as something worth it. No memorable melodies, the instrumental parts are what you would expect, no virtuoso. Good to use as background music to not be distracted.

69 Love Songs by The Magnetic Fields
Sep 05 2026

Not a fan. Need to listen to other albums from the same band.

Ys by Joanna Newsom
Sep 06 2026

Wonderful! Very original, full of life. Love it.

Swordfishtrombones by Tom Waits
Sep 07 2026

Big fan of Tom Waits and yet I never heard that album. Does remind me of German cabaret. Good Tom Waits stuff.

Sep 08 2026

That's what I call mechanical music. A strong rhythm line that goes on forever, with a minimal jingle repeating ad nauseam, some slight variations every now and then, sometimes voice over. Good for repetitive tasks that don't need chatty music but just beats.

Moby Grape by Moby Grape
Sep 09 2026

Big fan of the 1960s sound, and yet I somehow missed that band and album. It does sound very much like 1967 but I could not find anything remarkable about it: no melody that would live inside your head for the day. Not bad but there are better albums from that period.

Henry's Dream by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Sep 10 2026

Nick Cave, that's solid rock. Keeping that for days when I wanna feel like a bad boy.

Meat Is Murder by The Smiths
Sep 11 2026

Uninteresting commercial music from the 1980s.

En-Tact by The Shamen
Sep 12 2026

Pure dance music with strong and pleasant beats, good for dancing your soul out when drunk.

Guitar Town by Steve Earle
Sep 13 2026

Love it! Good guitar tunes.

Pearl by Janis Joplin
Sep 15 2026

Love it! JJ had so much energy, those tunes are just brilliant.

Moon Safari by Air
Sep 17 2026

Sounds like TV series soundtracks from the 1980s, pleasant to listen to.

Sep 18 2026

Good background music, some solid beats and very pleasant phrases.

Country Life by Roxy Music
Sep 19 2026

Roxy Music always good. Hadn't listened to them in a while.

Cafe Bleu by The Style Council
Sep 21 2026

Jazzy tones with very strong bass slaps, energetic, very good discovery.
