The album together with the year 1995 had me dreading what was about to come. But I was quite surprised. Didn't know Tricky was a collaborator of Massive Attack, but it makes sense. It's pretty good, but I won't return to it anytime soon probably.

Moss Side Story
Barry Adamson
This is the album I have been most excited about until now. I love everything about the album cover and it makes me so intrigued! Is this som dark noir crooner with an 80's production? What is it? I'm so excited and I'm really setting myself up to be severely disappointed.
But I'm not! It's quite good. A trippy homage to neo noir soundtracks. And actually some accidental dungeon synth sprinkled in there.

No. No. No. I get the idea, I do. But it just doesn't work that well. The early Metallica stuff isn't made better by the orchestra and the newer stuff becomes cream on cheese, as the material is already cheesy stadium hard rock. And then it's two hours with hetfield on vocals. There are some moments of goodness sprinkled around that saves the project from the lowest score.

Exile In Guyville
Liz Phair
I'm trying to listen to most albums through a retrospective lens at the same time as I try to imagine how the music would have sounded when it was released. The matter part is really hard, but I think it's pretty safe to say that not many women at the time were doing what Liz Phair did on her debut album. Sonically it's not always my cup of tea, but the lyrics and the vision make up for it. I'm not surprised if many modern acts of female oriented indie pop and rock are influenced by Phair.

Songs For Swingin' Lovers!
Frank Sinatra
I haven't been writing that many reviews, because I'm pretty crap at it. But doing it might lend more meaning to this whole project. I have already listened to over 700 albums so might be weird starting with reviews now, but better late than ever.
Apparently this album comes directly after the legendary album In the Wee Small Hours. And seen as a companion to its bluer, mellower predecessor, Songs for Swingin' Lovers! is also a cohesive (for it's time) listening experience, albeit more... um... swingin'. From the first trumpet fanfares and the Sinatra's first crooning lines of "you make me feel so young, you make me feel so Spring has sprung" to the fading lines of "I like it, how about you?" before the last easy going chord, the album is filled to the brim with smooth and happy melodies that sets at least me in a good mood. Almost 70 years removed from the album's release the nostalgia factor is of course extreme, and I guess it's up to each and anyone if that's good or bad.
I don't have much else to say for now, but coupling this album together with In the Wee Small Hours is a great double entry into Frank Sinatra's music, to get what he's all about, and discover why he's such a legendary artist.

Heaux Tales
Jazmine Sullivan
I'm not really a fan of them adding albums from 2021 in the book. To me it's impossible to decide on must listen albums after such little time has passed. I can definitely see why someone would have it as a must listen for 2021 though. Although I listened to a lot of new music last year I never heard this. I'm not that well traveled in the world of rnb, so it's pretty natural. I am glad that I was introduced to the album though. So even if I don't agree on it being here, I still found a lot to like about the album. It's a simple but effective concept with small spoken word stories fleshing out the songs following them. I really like her voice, the songs are mostly great and she has some really good collabs on here. A solid album experience. But will it stand the test of time enough to be kept in the next installment of this book? We'll see!

White Ladder
David Gray
There's something about his singing style that seems so typical for its time: late 90's early 00's. Or maybe he just sounds a lot like Ryan Adams who I remember was pretty popular back then (born in the 90's I could easily misremember). I discover that I like the album best when there's little guitar in the arrangements. Example is the opening track and This Year's Love. This being called Folktronics I guess I prefer the tronic part of it, as well as rhe piano. On many songs, something about the guitar cuts against the other instruments when it's in the foreground, in a way that mostly doesn't work for me.
It really does sound like folk pop taken into a more modern time. Which does not make it timeless in any way, rather the contrary. And that has its certain charm. What makes it work and what makes it popular is the song writing. I have no trouble understanding this album being so popular when it was released.
The first and biggest hit from White Ladder, Babylon, is probably one of my least favourite songs on the album leading myself to believe that I wouldn't like this album. It's so uncool, but I find myself unable to resist this cheesy, urban sounding folk pop.

Vento De Maio
Elis Regina
I have slowly been working my way through popular MPB artists the last couple of years and haven't gotten to Elis Regina yet. I had a hard time finding any information about this album. It says that it's from 1972 in the generator, but the album from 1972 in her discography is another one. Apparently it says 1978 in the book, while some blog says that the album was released in 1983. The album known as Vento de Maio seems to be a posthumous compilation release.
I dis find this album to be a great introduction into the artist that is Elis Regina. As a listening experience it wasn't especially cohesive mixing songs from different projects. About Elis Regina herself: She's fiery, direct and a performer to the fingertips. Being annoyed that the editors ignorantly didn't include a real studio album by Elis Regina I went and listened to some of her albums. Among them her self titled album (the one from 1972) and Elis & Tom, an album she recorded with Antônio Carlos Jobim. Both amazing albums and worthy of an entry in the book.
I want to give this entry a one star because of the editors of the book. But I can't give Elis Regina a one star review. I have fallen in love with her.

I have been disliking most grunge entries uptil now, but this is a really solid album. Not only because of the songwriting, that I found to be inspired and varied, but also of course because of Cornell and his voice.

A Girl Called Dusty
Dusty Springfield
There are some classic hits on this album that are lovely and timeless. Dusty's voice is captivating and amazing when coupled with the right songs and arrangements. There are some duds on the first half of the album that doesn't make her voice justice imo. But overall a good listening experience. Especially during the spring I would guess.

Legalize It
Peter Tosh
Don't be fooled by the simple and clear message (agreeing or not) at the beginning and in the album's title. There's a lot going on and to me this album just gets better the longer it runs. Especially Tosh's feeling for melody and the guitar play makes this a great listen.

Foxbase Alpha
Saint Etienne
I really like the sound of the album and I guess St Etienne may have influenced a lot of the 00's dream pop acts like Beach House or indie pop acts like The Radio Dept. But it's a bit long and a bit too unfocused when it comes to song writing. It's an OK experience and the influentialness is definitely showing.

Hail To the Thief
Radiohead
I've been a fan of Radiohead since I was a teenager, and I know this album in and out. I love it! But I am sceptical to including it in the book. I can see the reasoning; Hail to the Thief showcases a certain mix of different aspects of the band's music. But there are five albums that I think are more influential and better album experiences than Hail to the Thief. In my opinion you don't need to hear more than half of Radiohead's discography to get what they're about and why they have legend status. But as I said, this is an amazing album.

Hybrid Theory
Linkin Park
I never were especially interested in Linkin Park when I was young, so I don't really have much nostalgic feelings for the act. I will admit that the hook/chorus to In the End is pretty good, but the song is, like everything else on the album, destroyed by the rapping and the atrociously aged production choices.

It's always the same with Dylan for me. I don't know what to say. The craft is impeccable and everything has been said already. His music fills me with calm and warmth. It's truly comforting on the outside but below the surface there's an ocean of depth with the lyrical work. Lovely album!

At Budokan
Cheap Trick
I get why they included this album, even though it's a live album. It's their breakthrough album and was a massive hit. There are a couple of good songs on here, but as with many other live albums a lot of the songs are expanded upon and drawn out. Which isn't necessarily a good thing if this is your introduction to the band. The Fats Domino cover is really not for me. Cheap Trick are competent, but often uninspired hard rock. They aren't exceptional but they are better than many others in the rock genre that were big at the time and that was also included in this book. If that says anything at all.

Otis Blue: Otis Redding Sings Soul
Otis Redding
No, Redding hasn't written more than three songs on this album, which is comprised of many cover versions. But Redding's delivery is really special and although the music have different songwriters and styles, he makes the album sound consistent. He restructures and rearranges the music to fit his own style. And together with the amazing backing musicians like Booker T & the MGs, and Isaac Hayes, Redding creates soul magic.

Kanye West had his fingers in a lot of jars during the 00's and most of what he touched was gold. The production sticks out on this album, but it fits really well with Common's rap style and lyricism. To me it's a very 00's sounding, accessible hip hop in all the good ways.

Iron Maiden
Iron Maiden
This is that kind of debut where it's really amazing, but at the same time it's not definitely clear how the band will progress onwards; will it be heavier, faster and meaner with winding solos or will it be proggy, slow and epic with winding solos? Now we know Iron Maiden leaned heavily into the former, and they did it impeccably. They do show here that they are a band with many talents and qualities. And that's probably why they have managed to release such engaging music throughout their career.

Iron Maiden yesterday and Motörhead today! Does the metal gods smile on me? Yes they do! There aren't much good extreme metal included in this here book, but some of the original classics are here at least. The pummelling is endless, it's like a bulldozer going on and on, riff after riff, while Lemmy shouts on top of it. It's simple really. But also very effective.
