#1068 Songhoy Blues – Music In Exile

I have never heard of Songhoy Blues. It is strange that there are artists you cannot heard about in this digital age we live in. They released their debut album Music In Exile in 2015. None of the songs entertained me. I was not interested in it at all. Overall, this is not my type of […]

#1049 The Black Keys – Brothers

The Black Keys so far have not been a favourite of mine. Maybe their sixth album Brothers will change it. The album cover is kind of interesting. This is an album by The Black Keys. The name of this album is Brothers. I wonder what they were thinking when they created it. Wait. I am thinking […]

#1014 Ali Farka Touré – Savane

Ali Farka Touré released his final solo album Savane in 2006. Touré’s died at age 66 from bone cancer, but he was able to finish the album and approve it before he passed. Funny trivia: Farka means donkey. In Africa it is custom to give a child a strange nickname if you have had other […]

#948 Norah Jones – Come Away with Me

Norah Jones is one of the artist that even I heard of in Hungary. I knew someone who liked her, but I cannot remember who. Her debut album Come Away with Me is one of the best selling albums of all time. I am not a huge fan of her voice. It sounds the same […]

#808 Screaming Trees – Dust

Screaming Trees were on a commercial rise in the beginning of the 90s with their album Sweet Oblivion, but they waited too long for their 1996 follow up album Dust. I vaguely remember the former, but I do not remember the latter at all. Out of sight is out of mind when it comes to […]

#773 G. Love & Special Sauce – G. Love & Special Sauce

I have heard of G. Love & Special Sauce, but i have never heard their music. I think it is the case of me judging the book on the title. I did not like the name of this band. It sounded stupid. They never achieved much success beyond their debut album G. Love and Special […]

#638 John Lee Hooker – The Healer

John Lee Hooker‘s The Healer is an album I have never heard. I barely heard of Hooker. I know that he played the blues. I cannot see a reason for this album to be on the list, except that it is filled with many special guests. The first song “The Healer” kind of sucks. Carlos Santana […]

#375 Muddy Waters – Hard Again

Muddy Waters’ Hard Again came out in his mid-60s. It is a live album so I probably will hate it. I did like one live album on the list so anything is possible. He has had one album on the list, it was in 1960 and it was live. I did not really like it. After listening […]

#319 Neil Young – On the Beach

On the Beach is another entry from the great Neil Young. He does not have the best voice in the world, but he knows that and he knows how to write songs that are relatable by the above average music consumer. This album has been accused of being the most depressing of the decade, but […]
