2004 - SELF RELEASED
Produced By DAVID POE, ED ACKERSON & KRIG JOHNSON
1. Song For Everyone
2. 4YK
3. Soul Parade
4. Right To Me
5. So Silently
6. Freight Train
7. The Sun Is Signed & Sealed
Kraig Johnson was a member of Run Westy Run, which was one of the lesser known Minneapolis bands from the late 1980’s. They always stood in the shadows of groups like The Replacements, Soul Asylum and The Jayhawks. But Johnson made his way into the Minnesota supergroup Golden Smog…a band that for fans, is somewhat legendary. And so, his name lives on far beyond that of his former band. Smog has been an outlet for members of not only the bands listed above, but also for Jeff Tweedy of Wilco and Jody Stephens of Big Star. Johnson somehow fit in with the Smog, and has been a constant member since they began at the end of the eighties. His songs for that group have always been the weakest…but how do you compete with the likes of Tweedy, Gary Louris and Dan Murphy?
In 2004, Johnson released this mini album on his own (an expanded version was later dropped by Bittersweet Recordings), and it’s interesting, mainly because of his association with The Smog. It’s short (the original version is just seven tracks), and it’s notable mostly for having members of The Jayhawks (with whom he played briefly) contributing. The best song here by far is the last…”The Sun is Signed & Sealed” would have been his best contribution to a Golden Smog album, but otherwise, this self titled mini debut is made up of nice sounding, but unremarkable tunes. Johnson is, without Golden Smog, a minor player in the Minneapolis scene. Don’t get me wrong…this guy is not bad by any means, and you might just dig this record. But overall, he is nothing more than average at best. [First added to this chart: 03/26/2026]

1974 – ATLANTIC
Produced By CROSBY, STILLS, NASH & YOUNG
1. Déjà Vu
2. Helplessly Hoping
3. Wooden Ships
4. Teach Your Children
5. Ohio
6. Find The Cost Of Freedom
7. Woodstock
8. Our House
9. Helpless
10. Guinnevere
11. Suite: Judy Blue Eyes
Pretty much the ultimate description of success would be if you had enough great material after just two albums to release a greatest hits compilation. That’s how good the Crosby, Stills, Nash and sometimes Young supergroup was coming out of the gate. So Far (with cover art by Joni Mitchell) contains four songs from the CSN debut album from 1969, five from the 1970 CSNY album Déjà Vu, and both sides of the 1970 single “Ohio”. But there was a reason for having a compilation album like this one: outside of the live 4 Way Street album, which was recorded in 1970, the group had released nothing. And it would be another three years before CSN would come out. The purpose here was to simply keep the group from disappearing completely.
The material here is not in question. It’s all great stuff. In fact, they could have easily added two more tracks…”Marrakesh Express” and “Carry On” would have fit quite well. But if you’re a fan of their music, you should already have the debut and Déjà Vu in your collection. Which makes it worthwhile for the “Ohio” single and not much more. This was the last album before Stephen Stills decided to become Jimmy Buffett, before David Crosby became a train wreck, and before Neil Young (who appears on only four songs here) continued doing what he has always done best, which is being Neil Young. This is a great listen, and it was a great marketing deal at the time to capitalize on an upcoming tour, but the two original albums are both better. [First added to this chart: 01/14/2026]

1992 – DEATH ROW
Produced By DR. DRE & SUGE KNIGHT
1. The Chronic (Intro)
2. Fuck Wit Dre Day (And Everybody’s Celebratin’)
3. Let Me Ride
4. The Day The Niggaz Took Over
5. Nuthin’ But A “G” Thang
6. Deeez Nuuuts
7. Lil’ Ghetto Boy
8. A Nigga Wit A Gun
9. Rat-Tat-Tat-Tat
10. The $20 Sack Pyramid (Skit)
11. Lyrical Gangbang
12. High Powered
13. The Doctor’s Office (Skit)
14. Stranded On Death Row
15. The Roach (The Chronic Outro)
16. Bitches Ain’t Shit
I freely admit that my relationship with hip hop has not always been a peaceful one. Let’s just say that I understand really well how easy it is to blame the bad behavior of stepsons on the music they listen to. It took me a lot of years to remember that I grew up with that same attitude coming from my own parental figures. At the center of this were a pair of albums by Dr. Dre: 2001 and The Chronic. It’s a pretty easy road to go down, especially when you walk into a room and find the 12 year old listening to “Bitches Ain’t Shit”. That makes it difficult to appreciate what Dr. Dre was doing. It’s taken time to trust this album. But Dre (more a producer than a rapper) made what really is a great record. And it’s important to remember that the 12 year old me would have loved it…and would not have turned to a life of crime because if it.
The Chronic is actually the coming out party for Snoop Dogg, who appears on the first 11 tracks here, and on all but three. He, along with Dre’s production abilities, are what makes this record really work. You may not like what is being said here, but you can’t fault the way in which it’s being said. This is urban LA set to music…the streets, the people, the parties, everything. Dre as a producer proves to be among the best, and this album plays more like a great soundtrack than anything else. The lyrical content is frightening if you’re a parent, sure. But no one said that art has to be pretty and clean…it never has been the case, and it never will be. The Chronic is, after all these years, an album I can finally embrace and appreciate. It has not been an easy journey, but thankfully I still have enough of the young me in there to remember what albums like this are really about. It’s a classic. It’s great, and I’m as at peace with it as I can be. [First added to this chart: 01/11/2026]
