Great. A guy going straight to AAA and a guy on the DL. What a “blockbuster”…

It was the height of the Britpop movement and the height of global success for Oasis.

Now Listening:

(What’s the Story) Morning Glory?
Oasis
Label: Creation
Released: October 2, 1995

Their second album features a bigger sound with a wider range of instruments. It’s a peek into “what was” and unfortunately “what could’ve been” for a lot of fans.

This one is steeped in a sentimentality or wistfulness that’s very soothing. Sinatra had just turned 50 and he was reaching a new level of popularity capped by this album. Sinatra won Grammys for Album of the Year and Best Vocal Performance.

Sixty years ago (or thereabout) Thelonious Monk released one of the great jazz albums. Each time I listen I find myself drawn to something new. This time it was Frankie Dunlop’s drumming. Take a listen to this classic.

A classic from beginning to end. The third album from A Tribe Called Quest confirms their place among the best rap groups of all-time. The production is perfect, with great beats underneath the incredible lyrics. Take a listen and thank me later.

I think this is an underrated album from a pop star who was desperate to be seen as a serious artist. I love the contrasting sounds he brings to the different tracks. With a few exceptions, this album has aged beautifully.

Death Cab’s fifth studio album is a lesson in intimacy married to a big sound. There’s a movie soundtrack quality to this one, with lyrics and music creating an emotional experience.

Happy Release Day to Death Cab’s sixth studio album. This one mixed in their typical melancholy vibe with something a little more serious. It’s a good one.

This was my introduction to Iron Maiden and it’s still my favorite album of theirs. Melodic and high octane, it’s a good one for driving fast.
