The Wall

Pink Floyd

5/5

Garbage

4/5

Aftermath

The Rolling Stones

3/5

EH, some good stuff but I don't see it as ground-breaking like some seem to feel.

Amnesiac

Radiohead

5/5

Highway 61 Revisited

Bob Dylan

5/5

This is an absolute classic top to bottom.

Sticky Fingers

The Rolling Stones

3/5

Definitely some great songs on here and I know many people think this great, but to me some of the stuff is filler. Or maybe better to say I can take it or leave it.

Ritual De Lo Habitual

Jane's Addiction

3/5

Revolver

Beatles

5/5

Some say it's the best album ever.

Marcus Garvey

Burning Spear

5/5

They're very good at what they do and it's very enjoyable.

In The Court Of The Crimson King

King Crimson

3/5

Rum Sodomy & The Lash

Wonderful stuff, they’re in a genre of their own un many ways.

Not for me.

Born To Run

Bruce Springsteen

5/5

Do I even need to rate this one? I'm not a big Springsteen person, but this is lightning in a bottle.

Duck Rock

Malcolm McLaren

4/5

I Never Loved a Man the Way I Love You

Aretha Franklin

5/5

Superlative.

Hysteria

Def Leppard

3/5

This may have been the first time I listened to this all the way through. Pretty ok to good. Not Quite my cup of tea though.

Let It Bleed

The Rolling Stones

4/5

Dear Science

TV On The Radio

3/5

It's got a lot of elements I love (horns, funk with the rock groove) but just doesn't come together into something I love.

Ladies And Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space

Spiritualized

4/5

Fulfillingness' First Finale

Stevie Wonder

5/5

Stevie was at the top and this album is one of the tops, so tops of the tops.

The Dreaming

Kate Bush

4/5

Desperate Youth, Blood Thirsty Babes

TV On The Radio

2/5

Steve McQueen

Prefab Sprout

4/5

Good, I can see why at the time it would have been a classic, cult or otherwise. Like other Prefab Sprout I've listened to I found I liked it but didn't need to repeat.

Red Headed Stranger

Willie Nelson

5/5

Willie

Sincere

Mj Cole

Just not my thing, starts to sound all the same.

Headquarters

The Monkees

4/5

A decent proto-country rock album of its time.

Talking Book

Stevie Wonder

5/5

The Seldom Seen Kid

Elbow

4/5

I liked their early stuff and then mostly fell out of touch before this one. Nice.

The Chronic

Dr. Dre

5/5

Achtung Baby

5/5

A classic from my high school days.

Hejira

Joni Mitchell

5/5

Canada's greatest songwriter.

The Joshua Tree

5/5

Low

David Bowie

4/5

I'm not sure I had ever heard this all of the way through. Giving it 4 instead of 5 since if it wasn't Bowie I'm not sure I would have been quite as enthusiastic but I can seem myself returning to this one.

Joanna Newsom

3/5

Ace of Spades

Motörhead

3/5

Not for me but I can see the appeal for some.

5/5

Whatever

Aimee Mann

4/5

Peak Jon Brion and very enjoyable.

Lost In The Dream

The War On Drugs

I like all of the parts but it just doesn't add up to as much as I want. Really between a 3 and a 4 for me.

Just not for me. Didn't listen all the way through.

3/5

White Light / White Heat

The Velvet Underground

4/5

If You Can Believe Your Eyes & Ears

The Mamas & The Papas

5/5

Somewhat a nostalgic rating in that I heard this in both of my parents' households growing up, it also captures a certain sense of California that I felt growing up in the state.

Thriller

Michael Jackson

3/5

5 for musicality, 1 for personality.

Connected

Stereo MC's

ABBA
