Oh hell yeah, this is the first album where I get to add a star for good after the countless I have had to subtract a star for evil!

Damn it. Why is this soooo good AND misogynist? Why can't the good bands just avoid sexism and the misogynists make bad music? My standard 1 star off for evil.

Rated 10/10

I was surprised when Wish You Were Here was better than The Wall and Dark Side of the Moon, now I think those might just be their worst albums.

Boo Brazilian pop. Hooray Brazilian jazz fusion! More than half five star album, but more than a third three star album

I was skeptical that another Zappa album could be worth inclusion after all already on the list, but this has his biggest hit! This album starts strong and then gets weirder in a not always delightful way. But the five star song lifts this teetering on three star album to a solid four

I'm not sure I get the draw. It was nice but didn't feel like anything I hadn't heard before. Maybe if I understood the lyrics? But I did not.

Rated 4/10

Ugh, Drake? Really? Fine, I'll listen. I am not glad I listened. It was fine musically, with little to no originality, but lyrically misogynistic self-indulgent drivel. The best moment of the album was Niki's verse, but that is not enough to bring the album to four stars alone. So three stars with a point off for misogyny.

Rated 8/10

I knew this album as the did you know... 'fun fact' album, so I was surprised when I had heard half of the songs already and liked them. I had a great time, and the antiplutocracy scores a point, but point off for misogyny.

The Complete album wasn't available on youtube music but it didn't matter, Supertramp is the best parts of the BeeGees and Scissor Sisters mashed together. The epitome of the genre.

VoodooD’Angelo

Rated 6/10

The layered vocal at all times was a poor choice, it made it seem like a poor singer relying on a crutch, and that cannot be true. It felt muddy as a result. Also coming to realize maybe I just don't like R&B yet.

Rated 10/10

Hair rock meets heavy metal. I expected to find it hokey, it was not, it was gloriously cool.

Rated 8/10

Point off for the cingest lyrics ever presented as profound, but good metal, excellent orchestral, and very decent emo
