Paris 1919John Cale

Rated 6/10

An unagitated album that played in the background without any conspicuous features. Not bad, but not remarkable either. At two points, John Cale's voice reminded me of John Watts from Fisher-Z.
3/5

TapestryCarole King

Rated 8/10

A great album. Carole King has a great voice and makes cool music. The album isn't one of my top favorites, but it's worth listening to again.
4/5

It's nice to hear that raggea can be made by more than just Bob Marley. I listened to the album, but I wasn't very interested in it. The track Legalize caught my attention though, because after the legalization of cannabis, the discussion on the subject continues to be big, fierce and emotional.
3/5

I was very interested in the band. The genre appealed to me. I liked the cover. I also liked the first track. It may be that the music on the album is quite exciting. It got on my nerves towards the end of the album. I probably won't listen to it again.
2/5

The music is so sweet that I got a toothache after 2 songs. I don't like German Schlager. Why should American soft pop be any better?
1/5

Hot RatsFrank Zappa

Rated 6/10

Frank Zappa as a horror clown? The album is much older than Pennywise. I like some of Frank Zappa's stuff. Some of it is certainly brilliant, but too exhausting for me. That's how I felt about this album. I listened to it all the way through. Some things were great. In the end, I was glad I'd finished it. I probably won't listen to the album again so soon.
3/5

Yes, the Chemical Brothers. I haven't listened to the album for a long time. It's time to change that. I can still remember the songs well. However, they are currently too hot and sweaty for me in this hot weather.
4/5

I've never heard of Happy Mondays. The album has a great title. Very funny. I really enjoyed the music. Maybe it won't be one of my top albums, but I can well imagine listening to it again. If there were 4.5 points, I would give it. So 9 out of 10.
4/5

Surfer RosaPixies

Rated 8/10

A great album. Where is my Mind is one of my favorites. It's amazing that it was reissued for Fight Club. But it also goes really well with this great movie. Unfortunately, I'm not in the mood to appreciate the album properly today. It's due to the current stress and insane noise from a building site outside my apartment. Therefore only
4/5

I didn't know we needed any more of this pop crap. I found the music completely boring. Even as background droning it was hardly bearable. I stopped after two tracks.
1/5

I found the music quite interesting at first. From the middle of the album onwards, it got on my nerves, so I stopped listening. I'll probably never listen to it again and won't miss anything.
2/5

Pretty cool pop. The voice reminds me of Annie Lennox. I really liked downtempo for a while. My taste has changed in the meantime. But maybe I'll listen to it again now.
4/5

Miles Davis' jazz may be brilliant, but sometimes I don't understand it and then it's too exhausting for me. It was the same with this album. I couldn't cope with the first track. I thought the rest of it was really cool. I think I'll listen to it again.
4/5

I have heard Bruce Springsteen live again and again at the continental Nights of the Proms. That was always thrilling. This album contains some of his greatest hits. Nevertheless, I can't do that much with it. I probably won't look for this album on purpose.
3/5

I had a song by Public Enemy in the back of my mind, but I can't find it anymore. The background music to the aggressive chanting was quite interesting at times. But it didn't encourage me to listen to more of the album than short snippets of a few tracks. Hip hop is not my genre (is it music?)
1/5

The album was fun. Janis Joplin has a characteristic and great voice. The old rock tube. I had almost forgotten Piece of My Heart. I didn't know the version of Summertime yet and I really liked it.
4/5

A great album. I've never heard it in its entirety before. I already knew some of the tracks, just from the concerts I've attended. I didn't realize that this was the follow-up album to Black Celebration, which I've always enjoyed listening to. It's great to have heard the whole album now.
5/5

HomeworkDaft Punk

Rated 4/10

I tried listening to the album. I found it quite interesting at first. Then Around the World was the end. The constant and monotonous repetitions got on my nerves. I then abandoned the album.
