Graceland by Paul Simon
Dec 15 2020

Enjoyed very much. In all honesty, I feel I would need to listen more to give a 5, but I shall be revisiting this album.

Buena Vista Social Club by Buena Vista Social Club
Feb 22 2021

Enjoyable, pleasant - the same way I would describe my Nan's quiche Lorraine. I can see why some people would love it, but it doesn't get me excited. Maybe the magic of this album got lost in translation.

Feb 23 2021

Nice little album with a real range of songs. Worms is a strange ending, but 'The Broad Majestic Shannon' and 'The Streets of Sorrow' are great along with, of course, the timeless 'Fairytale of New York'. A interesting insight into Irish (folk?) music, but not quite enough clicking with me on this album to give it a 4.

Feb 24 2021

A couple of great moments, but a difficult album to get through for me. Sorry Ye - a headache of a record to my ears.

Doolittle by Pixies
Feb 25 2021

Some enjoyable parts, but all in all not my cup of tea. Will probably never listen to this album again.

Feb 26 2021

Almost a four star for me here. Walk and This Love are standouts. Not what I'd listen to each day, but in the right mood I enjoy this. Not quite enough great songs for it to be a 4 though. If I could, it would be a 3.5.

White Blood Cells by The White Stripes
Mar 01 2021

To be honest, I only listened to this once. A few great tracks, but would definitely prefer fewer longer tracks. Didn't blow me away, but would give it another listen.

If You're Feeling Sinister by Belle & Sebastian
Mar 04 2021

I'm getting more lazy with listening to these and with my reviews but I really enjoyed this album and 100% would listen to this again. Maybe this weekend in the sun.

Nebraska by Bruce Springsteen
Mar 09 2021

Enjoyed this one. Definitely want to listen again in order to listen to the lyrics more intently.

Graceland by Paul Simon
Mar 12 2021

Enjoyed very much. In all honesty, I feel I would need to listen more to give a 5, but I shall be revisiting this album.
