TruthJeff Beck

Rated 6/10

Some cool guitar playing and tones. Otherwise, pretty run of the mill 60s white boy blues.

Oh, yeah. It was alright. Never really into the Oet Shoo Boys, but they’re OK. I’m glad they make music people like.

This had some really good, classic songs. And some songs that aren’t quite as iconic, but a little better than “filler.” Feels like that’s the textbook definition of a 4.

I’m a Stills guy. I like him quite a bit. And moments on here were great. However, there’s a lot of filler, and overall, I’d rather listen to CSNY, or The Band.

Pink FlagWire

Rated 8/10

It feels like there was a lot of very similar British punk back in the day. Some of it is better than others and some of it is really great. I’m getting the sense that a lot of it just the same ol’ schlock.

I actually liked this one more than a lot of others. I’d listen again.

RootsSepultura

Rated 6/10

I am really not a fan of this type of growling metal vocal.

But the rest of this band was fantastic and, musically, they ripped hard.

I enjoyed Ratamahatta and the throat singing stuff.

Like so many albums that I don’t inherently enjoy, I thought this was too long. The jam at the end was cool, but unnecessary.

If you took the best 30 - 40 minutes of this and made an album, it might’ve gotten a 4.

Night LifeRay Price

Rated 6/10

Not bad. A lot of this type of 50s/early 60s country-ish music is stuff I like. I don’t think Ray Price is the best of the bunch, but it was a nice listen nonetheless.

I really liked it! I was expecting EDM, but it turned out to be the good kind of electronica music.
