First listen.

First listen. How many times does the narrator die? This dude has been shot and killed (or hanged) in almost every song. Like bro, give it up.

First listen. It’s ok. I can only take so much white man blues. I’m also not a fan of the sleaze.

Many listens. I love this album. For something that I discovered only a few years ago, it feels so close, like I’ve know it the whole time.

First listen.

First listen. Starts off with a bop and then slides into mediocrity.

Many listens. I still enjoy this album. I can notice the imperfections more now that I've had some time away from this music. That doesn't hurt the album, I think it enhances it. This style of music doesn't benefit from over production.

First listen. It’s a cool morning and I’m floating through the river in my canoe. I am surrounded by mountains. I am small.

I listened to a version that is on Apple Music. I hope it’s the same thing.

It wasn’t the same thing. I found the correct one.

I’m back to floating through this valley and the mountains have returned. I am small once again.

First listen. What an awful vocalist, I love it. I thought I’d hate this after the opening track. Then, the rest of the album surprised me.

First listen. Fun album. I prefer this to their self titled album.

Many listens. I enjoy the singles and the more “Doors-y” songs to the straight up blues tunes. L.A. Woman is one of my favorite songs of theirs.

First listen. All I can think of is the people on social media using the title track on some feel good redemption post, unaware that the song is about oral sex. It’s good and I don’t love it. I prefer the video’s mix of Express Yourself.

Many listens. One of my favorite pop albums.

Many listens and this is the best complete Beatles album. Gold standard record.

Some listens. Fire. A pillar of the golden age of hip hop. The skits don’t age well.

First listen. Not a huge fan. It’s alright.

Many listens. Great singles and mediocre non-singles.

Many listens. My favorites are Backdrifts, Where I End and You Begin, There, There, and Myxomatosis. The album’s mastering isn’t the best and the songs can feel disjointed compared to other Radiohead albums. I still love it and listen to it regularly. The new live album is fantastic as well.

First listen. This is good, not great. The beats are hit or miss. I prefer the back half of the album.

First listen. Absolutely fantastic. I loved all the chord changes. What a beautiful album.
