Catchy, smart, and sometimes triggering stuff hereLee Morgan Search for the New LandOne of my favorite jazz albums of all time. Wish Morgan and Green had recorded more togetherMarvin Gaye What's Going OnThis album is an anti-depressant for me. As I get older I listen to it less because I want to and more because I need to. If the aliens come and take me tonight and ask me what my species is capable of, I'm putting this LP on. If like me you know this album through and through, listen to the "Detroit mix", it will spin your headPile DrippingRichard and Linda Thompson I Want To See The Bright Lights TonightUnbelievable that this isn't more widely regarded as a classic in the US. In my top 20 of all time. Masterful songwriting, well recorded and mixed. The guitar playing is inventive and interesting, nice full bouncy bass guitar, lots of layers of folk instruments without sounds like a 70s folk album. The songs range across a wide spectrum of emotional color: there are stompers, dirges, the anthemic title track... Little Beggar Girl sounds like a shanty to my ears. And Linda Thompson's voice cuts a groove right into your brain.4.5 superbBrian Eno Another Green WorldFreddie Hubbard Open SesameCould listen all day. Actually I have several timesGene Clark No OtherI'm not a Byrds fan, didn't care for other Gene Clark albums, and GTFO out of here with this cover art. rOnly gave this a chance because I'm listenting through the Dimery book, glad I did. Damn this is goodNeil Young On the BeachMissed this one during my Neil Young awakening because it wasn't on CD. Amazing to find this now, both of us in our 40s. Walk On, Revolution Blues, and Ambulance Blues are standouts. I'll keep going back to this one for awhilePile Magic Isn't RealSo happy i found this band. This and Dripping are on constant rotation in my house the last two years4.0 excellentGram Parsons Grievous AngelRandy Newman Good Old Boys3.5 greatGuided by Voices Surrender Your Poppy FieldIt's inconsistent but hell what GBV album isn't? Even Alien Lanes has alot of stuff you've likely long forgotten about, but the bangers are strong. rThe first two tracks on this are worth investing the 20ish minutes it takes to listen to this album. Year of the Hard Hitter has a great hook. The last two are pretty solid too.Hayden The Closer I GetRobert Wyatt Rock BottomThe Dictators Go Girl Crazy!The NY Dolls were doing it better and before long the Buzzcocks would be too but still this is fun and funny proto punk. Ramones get mentioned alot with them but I hear Television just as much2.5 averageBob Marley and The Wailers Natty DreadSteely Dan Pretzel Logic
