I dig the guitar in this album, very soothing. I think this came at the right time for me. 4* because not in fave album territory, but very enjoyable.

First time listening to a whole Aretha album. Chain of fools already starts so iconic. Incredible, clean voice. 4* only because it's not my type of album, but I have no complaints about it. Added to library.
Highlights: chain of fools

Very meh in ways I can't describe. I'm ok with moaning on a guitar, but this ain't it. 2*
I was glad when I got to the last song, then realized I had the album on shuffle so I have no idea what I did/didn't listen to, so I went back to the top. Bahhumbug.

A snoozefest album, why is this here, pretty unremarkable. Hard to pin down the genre as I went along. I will say, it did get more interesting by tracks 2-3.
2* because I don't hate it.
Ok, I take it back, 3*. It got better as it went along. Refreshing sound.
Highlights: euro child, heat miser (+piano, -breathing)

Ok cool, this will be something different. Confused as to the title not matching the album cover on this page, so I hoped I grabbed the right one. This guy has a massive discography.
Already vibing with the first track. My unaccustomed ears would argue all these songs sound very similar. But I'm glad every time this project introduces me to something not American/British.
Enjoying the sound though, 4*

Finally something a little more different and new after a string of kinda meh albums. Strong 70s vibes, very refreshing, can't pinpoint the genre across the whole album. This whole album is a vibe -- maybe I'm just glad to hear something I enjoyed and therefore giving it a 4*

Tres hombresZZ Top

Rated 8/10

Enjoying the sound of this one. Today I woke up dazed and exhausted from work, so this hit the spot on a Friday morning. 4*
Enjoyed: waitin for the bus, la grange
I feel like I'm no consistent with some of these ratings; a lot gets tied to how that album hits that day.

That description is OOOF. Track 1 (GYAHHHH) and I'm already struggling.
2nd track, all I hear is yelling and power tools.
1*, no question. Another, "oh this is so unique and groundbreaking, you must listen before you die" with no consideration for quality.
FUUUUCK a whole hour of this. I had to keep reminding myself to not skip tracks to power through this.

I see now that this is the lowest rated album here, so I guess I have better albums to look forward to!

I can see this will be a genre/era of my liking.
Digging the intro, but iffy on the falsetto-y singing
Enjoyable sound, 3*
Enjoyed: the fun powder plot, underbelly (ended too abruptly though)

HarvestNeil Young

Rated 6/10

Clean voice, enjoyable, Cool orchestral elements. 3*. I just don't think I'm a Neil Young fan.

Ray of LightMadonna

Rated 6/10

I feel like this album is here in the sense of Madonna's evolution, but on its own it's just ok., feels like a product of its time. I hear some things I enjoy. I also think it's from the time she worked on the Austin Powers soundtrack, a song I adore.
Highlights: ray of light, frozen

DirtAlice in Chains

Rated 6/10

Very 90s grunge, solid sound. 3* because I enjoy the sound, but nothing really blows my mind, no tracks really jump out at me..
Enjoyed: would?

1.5hrs? Woof. Impressive that he did all instruments. I recognize I saw the light. Enjoyed: couldn't I just tell you
Overall ok, just a lot of genres/styles going on, 2.5* rounded up.
