Feb 01 2021

Few well known classics on this record with some great easy listening album fillers. Convinced myself this was a strong 4/5 album until I heard the song ‘Roy Rogers’ towards the end of the record. The country music vibe didn’t sit well with me and I then failed to listen to the remaining tracks. 3/5 stars. At a push.

Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & The Holding Company
Feb 02 2021

Great musicianship from the band but still somehow flat, boring and hard to enjoy. I am a huge fan of Janice and her voice, but this is not her greatest work. Overall a poor record.

Zombie by Fela Kuti
Feb 03 2021

Easy listening World Music that’s well suited for happier sunny days. Not particularly mind blown by it but overall a decent album.

Talking Book by Stevie Wonder
Feb 04 2021

Amazing vocals, interesting song writing and nice grooves from start to finish. Will definitely be revisiting for another listen in the future.

S&M by Metallica
Feb 05 2021

Great live album. Love this band, love James Hetfield, love the orchestra. Interesting listen, wish I’d have been there to see it.

Solid Air by John Martyn
Feb 07 2021

I can only describe this as psychedelic country/folk music. He has such an interesting way of playing guitar, but it makes it very worth listening to. I loved this album!

Vento De Maio by Elis Regina
Feb 08 2021

A really nice Brazilian jazz album with some great bass licks throughout. It has a calm lounge feel that would sound even better spinning in my living room. A great record that I will revisit over and over again.

Queen II by Queen
Feb 09 2021

Average album to say the least. Not something I would revisit by choice, but it’s definitely listenable nonetheless.

Are You Experienced by Jimi Hendrix
Feb 10 2021

A real early classic rock album that inspired many artists and bands over the years. Very repetitive however, and didn’t have the same effect on me as it had on so many other listeners clearly.

Ready To Die by The Notorious B.I.G.
Feb 11 2021

One of the greatest Hip Hop records of all time in my opinion. I was blown away by this masterpiece.

Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Feb 12 2021

Decent jazz album for background music.

Surrealistic Pillow by Jefferson Airplane
Feb 13 2021

Great psychedelic album that I will revisit again.

The College Dropout by Kanye West
Feb 14 2021

What. An. Album. Literally one of the best things I’ve ever heard.

Synchronicity by The Police
Feb 15 2021

So boring to listening to. Would go down as terrible if it wasn’t for a good tracks

Too Rye Ay by Dexys Midnight Runners
Feb 18 2021

Loved this, nice bass, nice strings, vocals - everything. A real party record

Rocks by Aerosmith
Feb 19 2021

Not really done it for me at all, but it’s obviously listenable

Immigrés by Youssou N'Dour
Feb 21 2021

Not trash, but doesn’t stand out from any other world record I’ve heard in the past

Metallica by Metallica
Feb 22 2021

A classic one. Reminds me of being a kid

Tidal by Fiona Apple
Feb 23 2021

Awful
