Blackstar

David Bowie · 1 likes

4/5

Hard to compete with happy nostalgic memories of earlier Bowie songs. Another album elevated by its place and moment in time. My favorite parts here are the moody saxophone parts

All Things Must Pass

George Harrison

4/5

Long and varied, like going on an adventure. Doesn't have any really strong singles

Dummy

Portishead

5/5

One of my favorite albums. Feels like being alone in the night. Never realized it was categorized as trip-hop

The Velvet Underground & Nico

The Velvet Underground

4/5

Good, but I couldn't shake the feeling that it sounds dated and that I "should" enjoy it more. Actively unpleasant at times, but kind of the point of the art message

My Generation

The Who

4/5

Fun. I'd never heard the title track with the vocals stuttering before

In The Court Of The Crimson King

King Crimson

4/5

Interesting mix of casual and homey with complex anthems

In Rainbows

Radiohead

5/5

Jigsaw falling pushes this one past a four

The Undertones

3/5

Fun. Sounds like a skateboarding album, but nothing I'm eager to revisit

Paul Simon

2/5

Just ok; was the first album in this journey that didn't keep my attention. The parts straying into other genres are what did stand out

Songs Of Leonard Cohen

Leonard Cohen

3/5

I'm not really interested in scrutinizing the lyrics, might be higher or lower

Bringing It All Back Home

Bob Dylan

4/5

Given the pop culture image of Dylan being incomprehensible, him squeezing in so many words while still being melodic is amazing. I shouldn't have put off listening to his work for so long

Deep Purple In Rock

Deep Purple

3/5

Solid rock album

Machine Head

Deep Purple

5/5

Despite how familiar I am with highway star it gave me goosebumps this time, so gotta go with five even if there's some downtime in this album

Bookends

Simon & Garfunkel

3/5

Some classics but also some strange parts

Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo

Devo

2/5

Concepts that I like put together in a way that just didn't click at all with me
