Reply to two of your peers. One who listened to the same record as you, and one who didn’t. For the peer who listened to the same record as you, mention something you noticed they did not mention in their description of the record. For the peer who listened to a different record than you, listen to the track they said was their favorite from the record and tell them what you heard (song form, order of solos, energetic intensity/your emotional response) and how what they wrote helped you understand its context.
