JANIS JOPLIN: I GOT DEM OL' KOZMIC BLUES AGAIN MAMA! (January 19, 2023)

JANIS JOPLIN: I GOT DEM OL' KOZMIC BLUES AGAIN MAMA! (January 19, 2023)

I was semi-recently told by a family member that I have a strong resemblance to Janis Joplin, being called a "mini Janis Joplin" and being told that I'm similar to her in nearly every fashion, from way of speak to the tone of my voice. It was a really interesting thing for me to hear, and I think I'll always be reminded of it when it comes to her and her music.


SCORE: 81/100

The vocals and instrumentals are both strong on this one. I think that this album sounds ahead of its time, and I found it to be very enjoyable. This album, with only 8 tracks, is short but sweet, with each track being pretty good. I would recommend this album if you are already a fan of psychedelic rock or blues rock.

FIRST EVER REVIEW AS @vivi (January 19, 2023):

FIRST EVER REVIEW AS @vivi (January 19, 2023) My first ever review to albumoftheyear.org was published on January 19, 2023. Never in my life would I have guessed the journey it would take me on - but I am forever thankful for this ignition of a writing spark I never knew I had in me until discovering the art of the music review. Since I uploaded that first review, my life has changed drastically - I'm older, more matured, and an even better writer than I could've ever imagined. I've always had a knack for vocabulary and reading comprehension, but I would've never guessed that it would lead me down a brand new path of wonderful opportunities.  My earliest reviews were nothing to marvel at by any means, but they're such an interesting thing to look back on - to see how much I have grown as both a person and a writer. I want to use this blog to chronical more than just music reviews - and I feel as if I can be more casual here on an informal blogging service rather tha...

JANET JACKSON: DAMITA JO (January 19, 2023 & February 4, 2023) ORIGINAL SCORE (January 19, 2023): 72/100 A pretty good album, I personally really liked this album, I thought a lot of the songs were very well done and overall I just really enjoyed it. There isn't a ton I can say about it, but I can say I liked it and I would recommend it, the R&B sound of the album was really well done and I think all of the production was perfectly matched to Janet's voice EDIT (February 4, 2023):  SCORE: 91/100 Edit: 72-91, MAN was I bad at reviews at this time, good god. I re listened to this album recently and now that I'm capable of writing reviews here's a bit more: Damita Jo is a lovely album, the lyrics are (mostly) sweet and loving and the production is infectiously amazing. For such a long album everything flows so well and it's really consistent and amazing, most of everything was good but there was a couple weak points here and there, still a really solid and well...

PRINCE AND THE REVOLUTION: AROUND THE WORLD IN A DAY (Jan 19, 2023)

PRINCE AND THE REVOLUTION: AROUND THE WORLD IN A DAY (January 19, 2023) SCORE: 94/100 What an interesting switch up in styles from Purple Rain, but still a lovely album. Prince seemed to be able to effortlessly change his musical style again and again and make it sound amazing in the process every time. I find this album to be somewhat underrated, since I don't really seem to hear about it when people talk about Prince much. I think the experimental style of this album is stunning and it is yet another work of art from Prince, definitely would recommend to any Prince fans that have not already heard it before
