HejiraJoni Mitchell

Rated 6/10

It's a good album, it's a Joni Mitchell album. I don't see anything that would point to this being amazing or memorable.

I wish I had gotten this album during a weekday. This is great music to listen to while focusing on a task. For casual listening, not my cup of tea and hard to get into.

Disraeli GearsCream

Rated 8/10

Probably Cream's best album. For me, the thundering drums of Ginger Baker will always stand out over the more high profile guitar work of Eric Clapton. Jack Bruce's masterful bass playing is close behind Baker on this album. SWLABR, Sunshine of Your Love, and Tales of Brave Ulysses are some of the best tracks the band ever put out.

L.A. WomanThe Doors

Rated 10/10

My favorite Doors album. The title track, Riders on the Storm, Love Her Madly, The Changling. Phenomenal album with so many good songs.

Early rock and roll that's well done. I have a soft spot for this genre at this era. Pre-Beatles rock and roll was something special and a very unique sound is captured here.

This album is a great example of a performer not trying to do too much and succeeding. I am not a big fan of country music but I respect the hell out of this album because it's not trying to be anything other than George Jones at his finest.

This is one of the better efforts from the Beach Boys. Not Pet Sounds but something more experimental and bold. I think it shows their talent as it grows.

The music of the White Stripes is refreshingly simple yet also complex. Meg White is a phenomenal drummer, Jack White is a phenomenal guitarist. His vocals turn me off entirely.
