I&#8217;ve listened to greater than 300 albums in lower than a 12 months! That blows my thoughts. Listed here are the highlights:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Favourite Discovery:<\/strong>\u00a0<em>Tommy<\/em> by The Who. I\u2019ve listened to a couple albums by The Who on this listing and so they have been first rate sufficient, however the scope and ambition of <em>Tommy<\/em> floored me. <\/p>\n<p>I used to be solely accustomed to their music \u201cPinball Wizard\u201d (I even carried out it with my glee membership in faculty!), and I knew this album was a complete musical, however I didn\u2019t anticipate it to be\u2026taken so critically, if that is smart? <\/p>\n<p>I anticipated this album to be a bunch of songs telling a narrative. I didn\u2019t anticipate orchestral items, repeating musical motifs, and an equally shocking quantity of bombast and restraint. Actually wild, actually fascinating, and only a pleasure to take heed to. My favourite album by The Who for certain!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Different Favourite Discoveries:<\/strong>\u00a0<em>Tha Carter III<\/em> by Lil Wayne, <em>Endlessly Modifications<\/em> by Love, <em>Songs of Leonard Cohen<\/em> by Leonard Cohen, <em>Life After Demise<\/em> by The Infamous B.I.G., <em>Physique Discuss<\/em> by Robyn, <em>Worry of a Black Planet<\/em> by Public Enemy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Favourite Revisited Album:\u00a0<\/strong><em>Brown Sugar<\/em> by D\u2019Angelo. D\u2019Angelo is one in every of my all-time favourite artists and I used to be devastated when he died final month. <a href=\"https:\/\/adventurouskate.kit.com\/c20b2fc7b3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">I wrote in my publication<\/a> about what his music meant to me through the years.<\/p>\n<p>Greater than something, D\u2019Angelo\u2019s music feels supernatural to me. And <em>Brown Sugar<\/em> is the album the place you are feeling this probably the most \u2014 it feels SO acquainted, and but fully unique. You recognize this music inside your soul.<\/p>\n<p><em>Brown Sugar<\/em> was the album that spearheaded the neo-soul motion of the Nineteen Nineties, taking the vibes of basic 70s soul, gospel, and blues, and including on 90s modernity and hip-hop. These songs are extremely clean and luscious. The preparations are stripped down and intimate. And my favourite factor is that the lyrics are so respectful to and loving of ladies.<\/p>\n<p>Give <em>Brown Sugar<\/em> a hear. I would like extra individuals to know D\u2019Angelo.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Favourite Songs:\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cGirl\u201d by D\u2019Angelo, \u201cJoga\u201d by Bjork, \u201cComfy\u201d by Lil Wayne and Babyface, \u201cName Your Girlfriend\u201d by Robyn, \u201cTime After Time\u201d by Cyndi Lauper, \u201cRock Lobster\u201d by The B-52\u2019s, \u201cBurn Hollywood Burn\u201d by Public Enemy, Ice Dice, and Large Daddy Kane.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Get the playlist:\u00a0<\/strong>I\u2019m making a playlist of my favourite songs from the five hundred albums \u2014 most one per album \u2014 on Spotify.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/playlist\/6osX91YrO2uC2LnsXYSMUs?si=94e4d503543d4126\">You possibly can take heed to it right here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Lowlight of the Month:<\/strong>\u00a0<em>Slanted and Enchanted<\/em> by Pavement. I truthfully don\u2019t know why Pavement has three separate albums on <em>Rolling Stone<\/em>\u2018s listing. They&#8217;re a middling-sounding different band from the 90s. Like a bunch of highschool youngsters performing on the native VFW corridor.<\/p>\n<p>And it\u2019s not the style. Smashing Pumpkins and Weezer are each 90s different bands that may not has at all times acquired numerous respect, however their albums on this listing (<em>Siamese Dream<\/em> and <em>Weezer<\/em>, respectively) are FAR higher than something I\u2019ve ever heard by Pavement.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, I really like Otis Redding, however did <em>Rolling Stone<\/em> actually have to incorporate a compilation album with 4 completely different variations every of \u201cShake,\u201d \u201cOutdated Man Hassle\u201d and \u201c(I Can\u2019t Get No) Satisfaction,\u201d together with six completely different variations of \u201cRespect\u201d? Come on.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Random Music Ideas:<\/strong>\u00a0I&#8217;ve been livid at Kanye West since he began saying horrifically anti-Semitic issues, and that anger flares up each time I take heed to one in every of his albums. This month, <em>Commencement<\/em>. <\/p>\n<p>As a result of I LOVED KANYE. His music was the soundtrack to my membership nights in Boston within the 2000s. <em>Commencement<\/em> is a fucking nice album, Kanye is among the finest hip-hop visionaries of all time, and if he wished to wreck his personal life, that\u2019s fantastic, however he ruined his music for all of us.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s value noting that the <em>Rolling Stone<\/em> listing is filled with problematic artists, as a result of, hey, musicians are fairly often problematic. The sheer variety of rock stars who slept with underage ladies, for instance, even when society didn\u2019t see that as a foul factor within the Seventies in comparison with right now.<\/p>\n<p>However critically, Kanye being an precise Nazi within the 12 months 2025 is a really distinctive and plain degree of depravity.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"825\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" alt=\"A hand holding a jar of cashew butter with the name written in Czech, with a market of people and tents in the background.\" class=\"wp-image-39884\" data-lazy-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adventurouskate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Cashew-Butter-Prague-1024x825.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.adventurouskate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Cashew-Butter-Prague-800x645.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/www.adventurouskate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Cashew-Butter-Prague-768x619.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.adventurouskate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Cashew-Butter-Prague-1536x1238.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.adventurouskate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Cashew-Butter-Prague-2048x1651.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/www.adventurouskate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Cashew-Butter-Prague-150x121.jpeg 150w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/www.adventurouskate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Cashew-Butter-Prague-1024x825.jpeg\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"825\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adventurouskate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Cashew-Butter-Prague-1024x825.jpeg\" alt=\"A hand holding a jar of cashew butter with the name written in Czech, with a market of people and tents in the background.\" class=\"wp-image-39884\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adventurouskate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Cashew-Butter-Prague-1024x825.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.adventurouskate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Cashew-Butter-Prague-800x645.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/www.adventurouskate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Cashew-Butter-Prague-768x619.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.adventurouskate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Cashew-Butter-Prague-1536x1238.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.adventurouskate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Cashew-Butter-Prague-2048x1651.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/www.adventurouskate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Cashew-Butter-Prague-150x121.jpeg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><\/noscript><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">This salted caramel cashew butter was SO, SO good.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What I Learn This Month<\/h2>\n<p><strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/480s1kq\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Inform Me Every part<\/a><\/em> by Elizabeth Strout (2025)<\/strong> \u2014 Elizabeth Strout\u2019s newest novel in regards to the residents of Crosby, Maine, asks questions on what makes a significant life.
