Sorry for the Break

Sorry for the break in posting. With exams and a new semester, well you know how it is. Well without any further ado, tonight's topic; album reviews. This is not something I have always wanted to do so bear with me. I won't only stick to music, I will also start reviewing movies and other assorted entertainment outlets. Tonight I'm going to give the names of 3 older albums that anyone should listen to. Hopefully there will be something on here for everyone.

For the classic rock lover in some of you we have Loverboy's Loverboy. One of the greatest Canadian rock albums of all time, 1980's Loverboy brought out the world the best new Canadian rock band since April Wine. With great tracks like Turn Me Loose and The Kid is Hot Tonite this album shows off Loverboy's musical chops extremely well. This album's has had such a lasting impact that many of the songs from it are still played at sports games across the continent. I give it 1 8.5 stars out 0f 10.

For the soft spoken out there, we have Jeff Buckly's only full album, Grace. This album a definitive contender for the greates album of all time. With hits like Grace and Last Goodbye, and the mega hit Halelujia, this album delivers all the goods. With Buckly's beautiful voice this album can bring almost anyone to tears. I give it a 9 stars out of 10.

For the hard rockers out there we have Guns N' Roses' Appetite for Destruction. In my opinion, the greatest album of the 80's. It has everything you need in a good rock album. The heavy riff driven head bangers (Welcome to The Jungle), the sweet love songs with that necessary kick (Sweet Child O' Mine) and the arena rock staples (Paradise City). This is one of my top ten albums of all time and possibly the greatest virgin album ever made. 9.5 out of 10.
