I'm digging these 90s dance vibes.

dude wtf is this?

Damn okday the title track is a strong start. Rococo has this big booming stadium sound. and then into Empty Room! what a banger! Sprawl I and II are also great. This album is fabulous, I need to relisten to get a full sounding of it.

This album is fine for Headheads. Psycho Killer is a hot tune. Everything else is just kind of forgettable. Maybe worth a relisten?

Cool DJ stylings and the enduring hit Rockafeller Skank. Soul Surfing is good. This is a great get shit done album. Praise You is also a great track. Acid 8000 is pioneering.

Oh shit guess we are in it now with Singapore. Clap Hands sounds really familiar. This one is more snappy and to the point than Swordfishtrombones, which was a good one. Gun Street Girl is killer. Walking Spanish is so evocative.

Black Dog is a song with a lot of history for me. The roots of so much rock that was to follow is here in this album. Rock and Roll is like the proto sound of southern rock and alternative at the same time. Battle Of Evermore is the perfect lead into Stairway. Stairway is pinnacle of Zepplin and that is so strange to think about. Misty Mountain Hop is arguably the worst Zepplin song the band ever made. When The Levee Breaks is the sound of hip hop.

This album sounds so damn dated. The styling and sound is peak 60s. so if thats your thing this probably a 10/10 record. and there are parts I like. Its just that there are more things I am not liking.

Hoover Dam is a good tune. I'm not a huge Huskar Du fan so this sort of leaves me in the lurch. Its a pleasant sound at least.

50 Years After The Fair Sounds like Tom Petty could be the guest vocalist. I am not a huge fan of the guitar sounds, reminds me a lot of country guitar from the 90s. The overall effect of her sound is this feeling of toothlessness.

This is a cool singer songwriter bop of a record. Great and effortless access to her head voice. Lonely Women is a great track. All these tracks are tight and powerful!

Billy Jack immediately has my attention with a bass tone that is just a hook machine. This is such a groovable record, So In Love is a laid back R&B track with a pocket so deep you could fall in it. How do these R&B singers get this damn high?! Great minor colors on Blue Monday People. Fabulous album.

Oh god, what do people see in this guy?! His delivery is so wooden. Thank the lord that this is the last of his albums that I need to suffer through.

Bring The Noise is great. This rap album is incredible. Chuck D's voice is just so damn powerful. Prophets Of Rage is a great song.

I don't really give a shit about Amy Winehouse. After hearing her disasterous cover of A Message To You Rudy, I haven't cared. Great voice on the record, a shame she didn't get a hold of her demons. Wake Up Alone is a B-side I can get behind.

This album is about ripping itself open and exposing all the ugly pieces of love falling apart, through a funk soul lens. This demands a second chance. Sparrow is a good track. This album does require some committment though.

Blue Skies and All of Me are standouts. The arrangement is generally sparse, letting Willie do his thing. On the Sunny Side of the Street is another highpoint.

Butter is the first song that really grabbed me this morning. Their instrumentation and sampling is almost jazz like. I don't really care about their lyrics, a lot of them feel very static, with sort of dead end end rhyming schemes.

This is a sold meh from me.

The bass is in your face, the drums are fast, and the guitar lines are hooky. The vocals are distinctive. This is an album genetically engineered to get a high score from me. I like the harmony on Lust To Love. They Got The Beat is still a fun song, even if it was drilled into me from guitar hero. A great album I had fun all the way through.
