People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm

Popular Reviews

New Wave by The Auteurs

It's a pleasant album. There's no surprises or fluff. Nothing exciting. This is an album that exists.

Songs From The Big Chair by Tears For Fears

The hits were blatantly the best songs on this album. It was too New Wave, too synthy and too digital for me. This was not awful but I am not a fan.

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens

3/5 because it's not something I would normally go for. It was just too mellow for me. This was an entertaining album and was well crafted. The songs all paint a wonderful picture. This was my first dive into Sufjan Stevens and while it's not my cup of tea, it was quite enjoyable.

Green Onions by Booker T. & The MG's

Songs From The Big Chair by Tears For Fears

The hits were blatantly the best songs on this album. It was too New Wave, too synthy and too digital for me. This was not awful but I am not a fan.

Boston by Boston

I knew more of this record than I thought I would. Since getting away from classic rock radio, this record hit way harder than I expected. The mix and master are fantastic. A lot of it is up tempo and driving. This album exceeded my expectations.

Band On The Run by Paul McCartney and Wings

There's a reason Paul has been writing songs for damn near 70 years. He's a master at it. This album is fun and there's more hooks than a bait and tackle shop. Loved this one.

Bossanova by Pixies

Great album. I somehow missed the Pixies while growing up in the 90s. This record is a vibe. I certainly enjoyed it.

Tidal by Fiona Apple

I love Fiona Apple. This album is great. She's sharp and has a way with words. She was an angry young woman and I'm here for it. She sounds like nothing else.

The Velvet Underground & Nico by The Velvet Underground

A classic.

James Brown Live At The Apollo by James Brown

A rowdy early show from The Godfather. You can hear the Hardest Working Man in Show Business putting in the work. Everything was up tempo and raucous. Loved it.

Buffalo Springfield Again by Buffalo Springfield

All Directions by The Temptations

Nice vibe. Great songs. It was a great album. Some of these tracks snuck up on me. This was a deeper dive into the Temptations than I ever done before.

Music From Big Pink by The Band

New Wave by The Auteurs

It's a pleasant album. There's no surprises or fluff. Nothing exciting. This is an album that exists.

Screamadelica by Primal Scream

Rubber Soul by Beatles

It's the friggin Beatles. This is a fantastic album by the most influential group of all time. Love this one.

The Undertones by The Undertones

Fun little record. Great sound.

Bayou Country by Creedence Clearwater Revival

The Score by Fugees

This is a great album. It's the Fugees at their best. The track segues range from frightening to hilarious. The songs are all fantastic.

Bridge Over Troubled Water by Simon & Garfunkel

Another Green World by Brian Eno

Faust IV by Faust

This was a weird one. Did not like it.
