Popular Reviews

Abbey Road by Beatles

Their masterpiece, highlights how different the individual members had become but at the same time their individuality compliments the album. McCartney at his most creative (the final medley from golden slumbers to the end especially , George with possibly the 2 best songs on the album and Lennon throws In his usual quirky genius (I want you and come together

Red Dirt Girl by Emmylou Harris

It was nice, I enjoyed it kinda, she has a great voice. But pretty much every track becomes indistinguishable from each other and found myself impatient for it to finish in the end

Led Zeppelin III by Led Zeppelin

gets a 5 for immigrant song alone.. brilliant and not even in my top 2 LZ albums

Roxy Music by Roxy Music

Some sort of mix between Bowie and Pink Floyd. First half was very good, second half reminded me of The Wall.

Diamond Life by Sade
Jan 18 2021

Started off well and faded off. Your love is king is a brilliant track. She's a great voice

Rust Never Sleeps by Neil Young & Crazy Horse
Jan 19 2021

A classic from the opening chords of hey hey my my. Especially like the electric side.

Dummy by Portishead
Jan 21 2021

Grand. Every track is the same. Nice easy to listen to but wouldn't be in a rush to play it again

On The Beach by Neil Young
Jan 26 2021

Not my favourite Neil Young album but still enjoyed it.

Sister by Sonic Youth
Jan 29 2021

Meh

Too Rye Ay by Dexys Midnight Runners
Feb 01 2021

A unique sound. Enjoyed it

American Idiot by Green Day
Feb 02 2021

Some great tracks. Good album

Floodland by Sisters Of Mercy
Feb 03 2021

Actually really liked it, had never heard of them before. Some strange resemblance to Bowies 80s stuff

Boston by Boston
Feb 04 2021

Unbridled classic Rock. Brilliant

Pretenders by Pretenders
Feb 08 2021

Enjoyed it. Couple of classics in there. Prefer their ballad stuff to their punk stuff

Dire Straits by Dire Straits
Feb 10 2021

Not as good as some of their later albums but still love that sound that's unique to mark knofler

S.F. Sorrow by The Pretty Things
Feb 11 2021

Some of it was very good, just dragged on a bit

Go Girl Crazy by The Dictators
Feb 17 2021

The guitar licks and riffs make it a 4. Enjoyed it, fun album

Thriller by Michael Jackson
Feb 18 2021

Anyone who doesn't give 5 is just ignorant...

Hot Rats by Frank Zappa
Feb 22 2021

Hilarious and brilliant

Tusk by Fleetwood Mac
Feb 23 2021

Some brilliant songs, Sara in particular but a lot of over worked stuff by Buckingham and a double album was a bit self indulgent. Could have had a super album with half the tracks

Rocks by Aerosmith
Feb 25 2021
Technique by New Order
Mar 04 2021

Enjoyed it

The Coral by The Coral
Mar 05 2021

They had a good sound. Dreaming of you takes me back to 1st year in college.

The Slider by T. Rex
Mar 09 2021

Brilliant. Some great tracks like Buick mackane, telegram Sam, ballroom on mars mixed with nice catchy guitar songs

Roxy Music by Roxy Music
Mar 10 2021

Some sort of mix between Bowie and Pink Floyd. First half was very good, second half reminded me of The Wall.

Red Dirt Girl by Emmylou Harris
Mar 11 2021

It was nice, I enjoyed it kinda, she has a great voice. But pretty much every track becomes indistinguishable from each other and found myself impatient for it to finish in the end

Born In The U.S.A. by Bruce Springsteen
Mar 16 2021

Packed with classics. The title track, I'm on fire, no surrender, glory days, dancing in the dark, my hometown. One or two weaker tracks but overall brilliant

Dare! by The Human League
Mar 17 2021
Fear Of Music by Talking Heads
Mar 22 2021

Always liked talking heads. Weird at times but a great sound

Dry by PJ Harvey
Mar 24 2021

3.5 very good, some absolute belter but knocked off .5 for some songs that were just her whining

Locust Abortion Technician by Butthole Surfers
Mar 26 2021

Just awful. Maybe one track that could be described as an actual song, human cannonball. Oh and the other song where they just said cunt the whole time. Painful

Mar 29 2021

Nice , couple of great tracks, grounds for divorce is my favourite on it. Stars off well but a big lull in the middle before ending well

Heaven Or Las Vegas by Cocteau Twins
Mar 30 2021

Enjoyed it even if the lyrics were nonsense, the music was good!

Franz Ferdinand by Franz Ferdinand
Mar 31 2021

First half really good, shirt snappy rock tunes. Tails off towards the end bit overall enjoyed i

Fisherman's Blues by The Waterboys
Apr 01 2021

Brilliant. The title track is a classic, stolen child, bang on the ear, their version of sweet thing all brilliant. Overall enjoyed it a lot

Unknown Pleasures by Joy Division
Apr 05 2021

I really like the soun although, it's very very dark, almost like a soundtrack to a futuristic sci fi movie. Prefer side 2 to side 1, especially tracks like shadowplay, she's lost control and interzone. Not an album I'd just throw on to listen to music, and perhaps slightly monotone but no denying it's brilliance.

Celebrity Skin by Hole
Apr 06 2021

That sort of ok if semi-bland mid to late 90s American rock that you would find in every teen movie/tv series of the time. Nothing awful, nothing great. The kids hanging outside Todds in their black hoodies and pink hair would love it

Apr 07 2021

Sound is cool, can see it's influence on lots of other bands and genres. Lyrics are a tad one dimensional, they love singing that they have the funk. Enjoyed it.

Dirt by Alice In Chains
Apr 09 2021

Opens up with a classic in them bones, and liked the first few tracks but then it just got a bit more sludge and wasn't too gone on second half

Rust In Peace by Megadeth
Apr 13 2021

Shredding guitar virtuoso from mustaine and Friedman. Really good, great sound but tracks can blend into each other.

Led Zeppelin III by Led Zeppelin
Apr 14 2021

gets a 5 for immigrant song alone.. brilliant and not even in my top 2 LZ albums

Shadowland by k.d. lang
Apr 15 2021

Nice easy listening country

Hypnotised by The Undertones
Apr 19 2021

Some cracking tracks, always really good snappy hooks. But quite a lot of filler tracks that sound like a 14 year old wrote them. And what were they thinking with the under the board walk cover...told you so, my perfect cousin, there goes Norman are the standouts

Here, My Dear by Marvin Gaye
Apr 20 2021

Enjoyed parts, music is good but an hour and half of Marvin complaining about his ex wife was just too much

Machine Head by Deep Purple
Apr 26 2021

Ritchie blackmore at his finest

Picture Book by Simply Red
May 10 2021

First side was pretty poor, few good tracks on side 2 but overall a forgettable experience

Nilsson Schmilsson by Harry Nilsson
May 11 2021

5 for the name of the album alone.. really really good.

Paul Simon by Paul Simon
May 14 2021

Brilliant..

Abbey Road by Beatles
Jul 06 2021
