American Beauty by Grateful Dead
Jan 20 2021

Bland plodding folk rock, most of it sounds like it should be montage music for 70’s American TV shows.

Marquee Moon by Television
Jan 21 2021

Great album, some great punchy songs and their influence can be heard today still.

Jan 22 2021

This man could sing The Times Obituary and make it feel uplifting. 11 great songs, averaging about 3 minutes in length each. Would Otis have been able to do this in the modern music Industry?

Heaven Or Las Vegas by Cocteau Twins
Jan 25 2021

Unremarkable, inoffensive and over produced. Alright background music.

Scott 4 by Scott Walker
Jan 26 2021
Daydream Nation by Sonic Youth
Jan 27 2021

Heavy,gloomy guitar based music, not something I would seek out but glad I listened to it. Interest guitars that remind me of some of Radiohead/smashing pumpkins used in later albums.

Ananda Shankar by Ananda Shankar
Jan 28 2021

Maybe groundbreaking at the time but now seems like Muzak I”ve heard before a 100, mainly inIndian restaurants.

Dig Your Own Hole by The Chemical Brothers
Feb 01 2021

An amazing album for me with its music mixed up emotionally with a time in my life when every weekend was spent off my tits.

The Wildest! by Louis Prima
Feb 02 2021

Excellent, a good discovery I can see myself listening to this again in the future.

Murmur by R.E.M.
Feb 03 2021

A bit samey and not any stand out tracks makes this monatanous.

Hounds Of Love by Kate Bush
Feb 05 2021

Unique but not my cup of tea, a lot of fillers between the thrillers.

The Stooges by The Stooges
Feb 08 2021

Great, its like I found the missing link between rock and punk.

Rock 'N Soul by Solomon Burke
Sep 06 2021

Great voice, good tunes

Seventeen Seconds by The Cure
Sep 27 2021

A great band who I have not listened much to beyond the hits, an album that washes over you, melancholic but not sad, I will listen to more.

Sunshine Superman by Donovan
Sep 28 2021

Much of it sounded like a music from a kids tv show or a music teacher making music up off the cuff. A couple of good tracks though.

If You're Feeling Sinister by Belle & Sebastian
Sep 29 2021

A band that should have been part of my youth, luckily I discovered them later in life and love them, first time I have ever listened to an album of theirs from start to finish and what a great one.

Sep 30 2021

I wanted to hate it but I couldn’t, Great pop with a bit extra with the confidence to rip influences from other songs and make them his own (ish)

Tres Hombres by ZZ Top
Oct 05 2021

A previously dismissed band by myself due to tge crap tgey produced in the 90’s, pleasantly surprised by this.

Let's Get It On by Marvin Gaye
Oct 07 2021

Great voice soulful tunes, I love him more than his dad.

Darklands by The Jesus And Mary Chain
Oct 08 2021

An album with a proper start middle and finish. Came to love the Jesus and Mary Chain in the last few years bug never got to hear it when its contrast to Kylie and Jasons shite was the mainstay of popular music in the UK

1984 by Van Halen
Oct 11 2021

I hated it
