Popular Reviews

The Man Machine by Kraftwerk

Great album. Still sounds surprisingly fresh and modern, highlighting how far ahead of their time kraftwerk were at the time of release.

Urban Hymns by The Verve

Excellent album, some classic 90's indie rock. Stand out tracks are the singles but the album tracks are strong also, good riffs and vocals throughout.

Very good album. Expected to only enjoy brimful of asha but, some very eclectic songs, great variety of sounds and rhythms mixing electronic, bass and Indian instruments to great effect.

L'Eau Rouge by The Young Gods

Interesting album. Some great sounds and very experimental. Liked the mix of French and English and the different styles put together.

C'est Chic by CHIC

Classic disco album, great for getting up and dancing to and singing along to.

Highway 61 Revisited by Bob Dylan
Jan 18 2021

Standard Dylan. Album was catchy but some pretty random lyrics.

Loveless by My Bloody Valentine
Jan 22 2021

Some good sounds, slightly phsycadelic guitars. Enjoyed the album, vocals fairly non descript but sound good and atmospheric.

Vento De Maio by Elis Regina
Jan 25 2021

Foreign language, not a problem. Energetic, Latin style music. Good to listen to in background. Didn't engage hugely with this one.

Jan 26 2021

Great album. Some classic hits that are great to sing along to. Otis has such a distinctive voice and the tunes are fantastic. Also great to hear some slower numbers that are less well known.

...Like Clockwork by Queens Of The Stone Age
Jan 27 2021

Definitely a grower. Not my favourite album when I first heard, was expecting bombastic anthems like Songs for the Deaf. However, Josh Hommes voice is amazing, the vocals varying wildly at times creating different moods depending on the song. Will take a few listenings to really get, but another good album by one of my favourite bands.

Everything Must Go by Manic Street Preachers
Feb 01 2021

Excellent album. Some great singalong hits. Varied in pace too, some songs show more energy than others to keep it interesting.

Ritual De Lo Habitual by Jane's Addiction
Feb 02 2021

Great track in 'Been caught stealin', however, the rest of the album is fairly forgettable.

Urban Hymns by The Verve
Feb 03 2021

Excellent album, some classic 90's indie rock. Stand out tracks are the singles but the album tracks are strong also, good riffs and vocals throughout.

Court And Spark by Joni Mitchell
Feb 04 2021

Excellent so gwriting accompanied by a unique voice. All her songs tell a story making these songs a little more meaningful than most. Guitars reflecting the sounds of the time but mostly sound modern. Enjoyed this album and will listen to more from Joni

Da Capo by Love
Feb 05 2021

Better than expected. Some good guitars and vocals. Pyscadelic riffs and licks in there but entertaining. Great harmonicas too.

Brothers by The Black Keys
Feb 07 2021

Great album, lots of powerful guitars, bold drums and distinctive vocals. Howling for you is by far the best track but generally, a great, powerful album

Berlin by Lou Reed
Feb 08 2021

Okay album. Vocal heavy, nice guitars and piano.

Feb 09 2021

Chilled out album. Some nice strings and easy vocals. Creates a dreamy kind of atmosphere when listening. Some interesting arrangements with different instruments lending each song a slightly different character

The Man Machine by Kraftwerk
Feb 10 2021

Great album. Still sounds surprisingly fresh and modern, highlighting how far ahead of their time kraftwerk were at the time of release.

Feb 11 2021

Very nice album. Charming and heartwarming. Could imagine hearing them in a cosy pub with a beer and an open fire. Some very emotionally charged tracks, slightly haunting in places. Very well written and arranged.

Emperor Tomato Ketchup by Stereolab
Feb 12 2021

Eclectic mix of songs on this album. Chilled out so easy to listen to but some lovely vocals and interesting arrangements make this a lovely album to listen through.

Feb 14 2021

Not bad. Very sixties vibe, a good mixture of songs but none I recognised. Entertaining enough to listen to but not one I'll keep going back to.

Feb 15 2021

Very good album. Expected to only enjoy brimful of asha but, some very eclectic songs, great variety of sounds and rhythms mixing electronic, bass and Indian instruments to great effect.

In It For The Money by Supergrass
Feb 17 2021

Enjoyable album. More tracks I recognised than I thought I would, good guitars and blends of instruments arranged very nicely. Very good album.

The Stooges by The Stooges
Feb 18 2021

Good album. Driving guitars and that distinctive lead vocal. I wanna be your dog by far the best rack but others have their merits too and I enjoyed the album.

Billion Dollar Babies by Alice Cooper
Feb 19 2021

Good album with strong vocals and varied styles and instruments.

Deep Purple In Rock by Deep Purple
Feb 20 2021

Alright album. Lots of guitar driven songs, minimal vocals meaning lots of so gs sound very similar.

C'est Chic by CHIC
Feb 21 2021

Classic disco album, great for getting up and dancing to and singing along to.

Purple Rain by Prince
Feb 22 2021

Classic 80's album. Some excellent so gwriting with great melodies and arrangements, very much enjoyed.

Tracy Chapman by Tracy Chapman
Feb 23 2021

Very good album. Lots of emotion and every song telling a story. Tracy Chapman has a great voice and great skills as a songwriter.

Greetings From L.A. by Tim Buckley
Feb 24 2021

Quirky album with some real Sing-along tunes. Great for a sunny afternoon listening. Reminds of Jerry Reed in song composition and sound.

L'Eau Rouge by The Young Gods
Feb 25 2021

Interesting album. Some great sounds and very experimental. Liked the mix of French and English and the different styles put together.

Rattus Norvegicus by The Stranglers
Mar 01 2021

Good album. Great vocals and variety of arrangements. Some songs I didn't know I knew too.

Heaven Or Las Vegas by Cocteau Twins
Mar 02 2021

Lovely album, very 80's synth pop feel but also beautifully arranged vocals and mixture of sounds. Very enjoyable album

Sound Affects by The Jam
Mar 03 2021

Good album, pop punk with great lyrics Representative the era. Some songs I knew already also. Very enjoyable

Future Days by Can
Mar 07 2021

Interesting album, mixture of sounds and styles. Tracks not likely to stick in the mind but enjoyable and entertaining to listen to in background.

Mar 08 2021

Almost the definition of 80's synth pop. Such a distinctive voice over some of the most iconic electronic sounds ever to come out of the 80's. Great lyrics and structures too, each song having there own feel, although some recycling of sounds does occur. Great pop album
