A very fun listen. Some nice, scuzzy rock that doesn't require you to think too hard about it while listening. It is full of energy and rather rambunctious, but it's not overbearing.

A nice, mellow folk rock album. This has beautiful piano playing and instrumentals, and Mitchell has a good voice. This album has a nice vibe and good lyrics. Raised on Robbery was pretty fun.

I don't have much to say about this except that it's competent but boring. I'm pretty sure I don't need to hear grocery store music like this before I die. I absolutely hated listening to this, in fact.

This isn't the funky disco music most think of when they think of the Bee Gees. Instead, it's some rather vapid 60s pop/rock. Pretty boring album without much of note. Some songs veer towards country, others are orchestral chamber pop.

This gives me one question: how the fuck did we go from this to the modern radio dog shit that we all call country nowadays? The songs are sung with talent and passion, something sorely lacking in modern country. They all have very down to earth lyrics retelling tales of life in America.

This wasn't the funky Stevie I was expecting, for the most part, but rather a lot of ballads. I don't know how I feel about those ballads. The one undeniably good thing, here, are his vocals.

Some rather vapid soft rock. Heavy use of piano interspersed with some guitar and organ. Nothing here really feels that good or
interesting, it's just meh.

The musicianship here is solid but not outstanding, which is a problem when your album has one original song. Why did I need to listen to this over the many albums snubbed that were more deserving of a spot? The one original song, "Tell Me" was rather meh.

Some really good socially conscious hip hop. The songs all have great beats and flow, and the lyrics are good. I enjoy the samples and the wide variety of voices on display.

Some pretty cool pop punk. For the most part, the tracks outside of the hits are just solid, but the hits are great. The drumming is great, and the guitars and vocals serve the songs well.

A nice folk-rock album. Full of beautiful, dramatic songs with great vocals and instrumentals.

Some very fun instrumental jazz. Sounds like pure, distilled spirit of the 50s. The playing is top tier, and I enjoy hearing it.

Some fairly entertaining British rap. Not much to actually care about here, but the arrangements are good.

Some neat instrumental sitar music. This album is a vibe, and a nice relaxing one. The sitar covers of popular songs are certainly novel, and the lengthier pieces feel classical in composition and playing.

A very weird garage rock album. I didn't hate this, aside from the opening screams, but I don't know that I liked it, either. The songs are short and kind of pass by you, and the vocals are very garagey. Either way, this isn't blues music.

A great post punk album with many strong tracks. Knopfler's vocal style suits the sound quite well, and "Money for Nothing" is iconic for a reason. The other songs are all bangers, too.

This album is just generic new wave. There is absolutely nothing notable here, except for the singer sounding like John Lydon on a couple tracks. He then proceeds to sound like generic new wave singer #653 on the rest of the album.

This is a rather soft acoustic pop album with pleasing vocals and arrangements. The lyrics have a healthy bit of social commentary, but are sugar coated with good pop hooks and soft acoustic guitar.

Some rather calm folk music. Nowhere near as loud as Highway 61 Revisited, which makes Dylan's vocals more palatable. Otherwise, the songs are as good as ever, and the lyrics are top notch as always.

Some light country-tinged pop rock. The songs are not bad, but they are rather boring. I wanted a cool metal album to be my birthday album, but I got this grocery store pop album instead.
