The definition of bluesy rock, descent album just not to my taste 3/5
Extremely dated both thematically and from a production perspective. Doesn't hold up. 2/5
Pleasent noise.
A great surprise, funny and rocking. Love it.
Pure nostalgia trip into my introduction to rock.
Utter nonsense 1/5
Very Energetic
Can't see the appeal.
Some nice stuff, better than Dylan.
Great wee album, Yiu can still hear the influences today.
Stone cold electo pop classic👌🙌
Great funk and soul, too many religious references though.
More enjoyable than than I was expecting. Compitant rapping.
I went back to Harvest. I'll never revisit this.
An amazing live experience. Loved it.
Chicken Dog!
Instantly forgettable
Funktastic
Interesting from a music history perspective but that's it.
Like the Foo Fighters but old.
Spicy👌
A chill classic. Look after your feet.
Great fun, even though joyless people hate it.
A painful listen.
Moments of great beauty offset with moments of pretentious meh.
Decent but not a classic.
Annoying voice and forgettable lyrics.
Not even their greatest hits live. If anything it made me want to revisit their back catalogue.
Enjoyable but nothing standout.
An immersive mix of psychedelic rock and pop.
In a word, nice. Just not standout or memorable.
Magical and amazing. Don't k is why it tooke so long to listen to this
Beautiful warbling.
Three great tunes, the rest is 100% filler. Listening with a critical ear you could have predicted his critical downward spiral due to his anemic lyrics.
Sacherine in the extremes.
<The Strokes, rich and lush riffs make this a winner.
Can't even remember listening to it.
Wonderful flow and a dream like quality make this unmissable.
Load of shite. Can't even be bothered thinking up something less base than this.
Short and lovely.
Like a cross between the Megaman and Doom soundtracks but more metal.
Not offensive but nothing to celebrate either. Why's it on this list?
Rambunctious rock from a bygone era. Good stuff🤘👌
Surprisingly nice, buzz kill party album though.
Nothing stand out or memorable.
A less refined Iggy and album in general. Not great. Bet the Bowie mix was epic though.
Not perfect, there's some filler but still an amazing album. I could feel the California sun on my face at times, Fuck da Police!
Dog shite
Not Bowie's best album but his signage moments of greatness are evident as always.
Bit too redneck/overly long/Christian for me. Still not bad though.
Like a less accomplished mix of Arcade Fire, Vampire Weekend and MGMT. Of course Pitchfork loved them.
Listening to an album shouldn't feel like work.
Wonderful throwback to the camp 80's.
As amazing, fresh and fun as the first time I listened to it 👌🙌
If only we had some kind of human 1001 album app that could have recommended this earlier.
The jazz basics. Important but not unmissable.
Surprisingly bland, this formula has been tweaked and done better by countless other artists.
80's kitch mixed with amazing, lavish and self indulgent production. Enjoyed the listen but probably won't revisit.
An absolute blast! 80's energy melting my face.
Lovely stuff, nice start to the week but bar a couple of standout tracks I'll not revisit. Better than Dylan.
A lot of filler and thematically muddled, this makes for a difficult listen. Not the album I remember it being.
Daft Punk.
Nice guitar noodling. Won't revisit.
Shite album. Formulaic sacherine sweet love songs of triumph and heart break. Like being stuck in purgatory for me. It's a 1 star album, the extra star is for Karen's beautiful voice.
Generic.
Nothing offensive but a bit droning and one note. I'm sure they have hits, just not on this album.
Lovely moments and all the pianos. Again, probably won't go back.
Pink rock for ladies.
In turns bleak, brilliant and hilarious.
Same as last listen;-). Enjoyable enough, just not my bag man. Plus, that album art is nauseating.
80's but sounds like the 60's. A strange album with two distinct halves. Not bad.
Amazing funky perfection. Who else can sing "I honestly want to fuck the taste out of mouth" and still sound credible.
A gorgeous, layered soundscape. Perfect Sunday listen.
Two great tracks = ⭐⭐ review.
Not on my list.
Cut and paste 70's sound with some amazing riffs. Plus Rod Stewart supports Celtic🇬🇧 Maybe being overly negative due to genre fatigue.
Black music for black people.
Brilliant pop/rock start to the bank holiday weekend 👌🙌. Definitely gonna revisit.
Only half way through before fatigue set in. Ray Charles is talented for sure but it's all so samey. Feels longer than 38 minutes.
Dark, complicated and brilliant. Will certainly revisit.
Beautiful production and rhymes. Could do with a trim though. Runs out of gas about half way through.
The auditory equivalent of dog shite.
Live rock album from the 70's. Boring and I hate live albums.
Absolute bollocks, shouldn't be on this or any other list. Well, maybe a list of shite albums.
An important, minimal, almost bare bones effort. The shape of magnificent things to come but just not quite there yet.
A joke of an album, thing is, the joke isn't funny or smart.
A horrible week for albums and two 50's themed efforts in a row. Maybe an unfair reflection but I have to go with my gut.
A complete surprise. Complexly arranged with dark lyrics and uplifting vocal talent. Bit long though.
Couple of good tunes but the pseudo poetry and nonsensical lyrics on the other tracks detracted from the overall album.
A hateful pandering to fans of Bob Marley and terribly forgettable. I struggled with one listen.
Nice enough but extremely bland. Won't revisit.
Smooth sounds but nothing standout. Won't revisit.
Like eating plain rice or cornflakes without milk. Bland in the extreme.
At turns weird and beautiful. Definitely before it's time.
Has its appeal and the guy seems genuinely talented but overall I found it a slog.
Funky, funny and warm. A total surprise and an amazing album.
An enjoyable, competent album. Background music, doesn't belong on this list like so many others.
My favourite Van track on this makes it a winner for me (Moondance). Almost every song eminates warmth.
Astonishingly beautiful. An amazing album and experience.
In your face and annoying as all fuck. Couldn't wait for it to end. A stinking pile of shite from a genre I abhore.
An enjoyable enough album by an overrated band.
Over an hour of meandering guitar and drum solos with no discernible focus.
As the title states; the album is OK🤷🏻♂️
A fun romp through the world of punk pop. Second half is a bit of a slog.
A talentless retarded hobo.
Sounds more recent that it actually is. Chill prog rock I can get behind.
Some lovely moments can't save this country album from mediocrity.
Another album that I can't even remember listening to. Dull.
Still fun but not as good as 1984, bit too old school rock n roll for my taste.
Some really nice stuff but a bit screechy in places. I enjoyed it but unlike Nena Simone I won't re-visit.
Doesn't take long for fatigue to set in when an album is as bombastic as this. Simply too much going on to recommend.
A collection of side project songs that done coalesce into a complete album thematically. Some good stuff but won't re-visit.
A competent album with some nice production. Nothing standout.
Dark synth waves lapping at the shore of a beach of black sand. Absolutely peerless and wonderful.
An attrocious din.
Some amazing tracks but not as strong over all as I remember it. Did make me want to re-visit their back catalogue though.
A great album and an easy listen.
Easy listening for pretentious twats.
Background noise.
Absolutely gorgeous, I especially liked the song about Neil Youngs hair. A strong 4, close to a 5.
Twee and horrible.
A strange album that fitted my Sunday mood. Definitely revisit.
Guitar noodling and bluesy rock. Not my bag.
Another ok album on a list of ones that should be unmissable. Not a bad listen though.
Genuine talent but in a genre and time that I care little about.
A well produced, fun pop album. Friday feels are real.
Absolutely wonderful, a rich futuristic cityscape of an album. Definitely going to revisit.
Could barely tell one track from the next and was never ending.
Interchangeable with any other 60's rock album. Tedious.
A competent album from an artist I have no interest in re-visiting.
A throwback thatbwas only ok in retrospect. Some bangers but overall samey.
Fan of the autobahn? Yes. Fan of this album? No. Tedious.
One good track before it runs out of steam with pseudo jazz vibes.
Some nice psychedelic moments but the rest is cut and paste era specic rock.
Forward thinking in many ways but still of its time. Can't get past a three.
A dark journey though a man's struggles to accept that he's at the end. Haunting.
An amazing pop album with so many hits it's unreal. An artist at the top of her game.
A nice wee surprise of an album. Might not revisit but definitely enjoyable.
One hit single does not an unmissable album make. If you say you're going to revisit this you're a liar.
Masterpiece. A hypnotising, singular and wonderful experience. A one of kind album.
A strange mix of an album. Bit too saccharin for my tastes.
A fun pop/rock album that make me smile with nostalgia.
Some amazing tracks (Blackhole Sun remains one of my all time favourites) however it's overly long and a bit one note.
Like a watered down, female version of NIN. Shallow and disposable.
Smooth jazz and clean rhymes. Nice listen but can't Imagine seeking it out do listen to it again. Also, Delux edition 😑
A nice slice of psychedelia. Like a DJ trance mix with guitars. A total surprise and definitely one I'll revisit.
Barebones production without nuance or flair. One hit single. Not worth a re-visit.
Competent rap album. Hasn't aged well though.
Lovely, but too much at 44 minutes. Trim off ten minutes and it would have been a ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Chill and smooth. I'd definitely give it another listen if the mood hit me.
Lush and atmospheric. A total departure from what I believed Goldfrapp to be.
Flying my freak flag baby.
Starts off strong but increasingly samey and a bit bland.
Simplistic and religious. Boring.
Not as dark as Violator but still an epic album.
Like hearing a cancer diagnosis. Horrendous.
Horrible vocals detract from an electrifying album.
Sounds as fresh as it did the day it came out. Perfect vibes for a sunny Friday.
An absolute joy and marvel of an album.
Nice, chill Sunday listen 👌
A solid 80's album. Fun but probably won't revisit.
Nice but lacking the magic of the previous CSN&Y album I've listened too. Not bad though.
Trite 60's hippy garbage. The album art says it all. Drawn by someone's cousin.
A decent album but wouldn't be drawn back to listen again. Been Caught Steeling is a fucking banger though👌
Three great tracks on an average album. Money for Nothing is worth three stars alone though 👌
An average 70's rock album. That's all.
The 60's
Smooth bluesy jazz to soothe the soul👌. Racist looking album art though 🧐
Two rules, every line must rhyme no matter how nonsensical and every track must end in a harmonica solo. Only slightly better than the live double album that I was forced to skip.
Great quirky, fun fusion album. Definitely revisit both the album and Frank Zappa.
A nice enough listen but bar one standout track it all seems a bit generic.
An amazing album that hits it's strde straight away and never lets down. My 2nd favourite Pink Floyd album.
One note and uninteresting. An irritation. Also way too long.
An amazing milestone album for the Prodigy. Love every track (even the weaker ones). Not quite a five though.
Dreary and forgettable.
Mixed feelings, some worked but most didn't. Maybe deserves another listen.
An average album elevated by two absolutely stunning tracks.
I liked this inspite of myself. I'll never listen again but it was fun while it lasted
White enjoyable although I am a sucker for music with Asian undertones.
Some crackers but got a bit samey near the end.
Bit dull and tedious. Not my Beck
Stronger than the last Siouxsie album on the list but the vocals again can be jarring. Apart from that a good album.
Some absolute bangers but not without its flaws (pace is slow in places). Just shy of a 5.
A good but not great album, my least favourite of the three Metallica albums I've listened to in full. Sandman is a fucking banger though.
A perfect rock album and the one that introduced me properly to the genre. I know and love every song. Absolutely untouchable (well, apart from the other fantastic Radiohead albums).
An alright album before they hit their creative stride. Good for the 60's though and some moments of brilliance.
An amazing opening with three fantastic tracks back to back. The remainder is just a tad samey and unremarkable. Solidified my belief that U2 are one of the most overrated bands in the world.
Not as good as Iggy's solo stuff. Some highlights but a bit meandering and dull.
A difficult album to get through from an artist who can do better.
Outstanding, nom stop bangers start to finish. Also, the best percussion I've heard in ages.
One of my favourite EDM albums of all time. Untouchable from a production perspective, plus, Pearlsgirl is my favourite Underworld album too so 5 stars is a no brainer.
A load of balls. Nothing standout or noteworthy.
Solid enough and full of nostalgia.
Great rock album that just slightly missed the 5* mark. Definitely revisit though🤘
Not as good as American Idiot bit still a fun little pop/punk album overall.
Brilliantly to the point. Rock N Roll caffeine.
Unbearably glum.
A beautiful album I'll never revisit.
My least favourite PF album and one I find mildly irritating. Got a few great times that can't be ignored though.
A brilliantly produced and performed album that makes me want to explore more. A strong four, almost a 5.
Banger from start to finish, an album that means so much to me, learning the running man, first cd I ever bought. Untouchable.
Nostalgic as anything. I bounced around the limelight to loads of the tracks however it hasn't aged gracefully enough do get a 4.
A nice enough dance album with one amazing standout track (Protection). One point deducted for an appalling love track tacked on for no apparent reason.
Interchangeable with any other folk/rock nonsense.
A good album let down by a couple of low light tracks. Still love Mark E Smith though because he's a maniac
An amazing album, every track had a standout moment. Funny, touching and beautiful, I was disappointed when it concluded. Genius.
An average album saved by a much better 2nd half than the 1st. The rapping about the fish though😂👌
An album from the 60's that has no standout moments. Ruined my Sunday morning.
Moody but uplifting at the same time. The epic sound of the 80's bowing out.
Before they became the New Order I love.
A hilarious and extraordinarily produced album. A cracker that apart from a few missteps (The New Workout Plan) stands the test of time.
I liked it more than I thought I would, maybe because I've a soft spot for Buddy.
Lovely but forgettable.
More amazing production and hilarious rhymes. Very few low points.
Filthy baselines👌. Bit long though, my only criticism.
One of my favourite Chillis albums but the back end has some filler. First half is absolutely banging.
A nice album from a band that I've never heard of. Suffers from sounding indistinguishable from everything else from the era. Still, a solid effort.
An adorable collection of brilliant western and western inspired tracks that made me smile from ear to ear. Cheesy as hell but immensely enjoyable.
Simply awful. I struggled with one listen, a mish mash of styles that ape something that's far better.
One of my all time favourite albums. Simply flawless.
Devolves into something that isn't even "music". Experimental to the point of nihilism.
Aged terribly, the skits especially. Shoulda skipped.
Dull and forgettable. A few nice moments but overall disappointed.
Strang mix decisions and questionable vocals male this one I can't recommend. His voice grated after one track.
Visceral, disgusting, disturbing, amazing. An album that makes me feel quezy but exhilarated every time I listen to it.
A wonderful idiosyncratic collection of songs that make me in turns both melancholic and joyful. Definitely gonna revisit this.
Epic tracks on this bit feel a bit basic and samey compared to their more recent work. Still a banger but not a 5.
Bit too heavy for my tastes. Could do with a few more flourishes.
An outstanding album from an amazing artist. Moves like a living, breathing creature and leaves you astounded.
An album that doesn't sound 20 years old. Jay Z's lyrics are on point as always and the sample heavy backdrop is as smooth as silk. Nice wee cameo from Eminem too👌
An amazing album that should score higher however the awful vocals detract from the experience. Could have been a five, at least Bjork's wailing is kept to a minimum.
The unsurprising boring, bland, generic sound of the 60's.
A rap album
Great Dad rock👴🤘. A more consistent album than Brothers in Arms and a total surprise.
Trying hard to be edgy and maybe was back in the day but horribly dated and a bit embarrassing today. Still some good tracks though.
An amazing album that created a zeitgeist and defined an era of music.
Below average in every respect. Sounds like a white cover band trying to sound black, well, apart from Greensleeves which was just embarrassing.
Lovely but very samey. Won't revisit.
Mental and a hell of a lot of fun. I laughed at the vocals while wanting to punch people in the throat. Absolutely class.
Country music that your Mum would listen to. The opposite of everything I like.
A consistently nice album lacking that one amazing track to elevate it to a 5. "Good Neil" to quote Mr Brown.
Background rap
An amazing album in its own right and my favourite by LCD. On rotation at least once every couple of months with James Murphy's trademark idiosyncratic style and attention to detail it always makes me smile/dance.
Not as awful as first feared. Some lovely psychedelia but some sub par stuff too.
So boring Roz though I was listening to the album on repeat. Rinse repeat Dylan.
Started strong but with little variety soon turns to tedium.
As good as the day it was first recommended.
The same as every other Nick Drake album we've had on the group. Some nice bits and pieces but will never think to revisit.
Hates it, dull and overly glam at the same time.
A below average album that does little to set itself apart from every single other release from the era.
Three stars for each of the good tracks on this literal mixed bag of an album.
Another quality album by what must be the most consistent artist on this list.
I enjoyed this more than most 60's albums on this list. Not saying much as I can't stretch to more than a 3. Satisfactory.
Warm, fun and smooth. The excellent drumming makes this a winner for me. Definitely interested in hearing more of their stuff.
An album about God, Stevie Wonder and loving your Mother with some rap and groundbreaking production. Mostly the first three though. The Message is a standout, an absolute classic but can't elevate the album above a 2. Extremely dated.
One note and amateurish. Has its charm but it's not my scene.
A lovely album with limited appeal. Moments of real beauty but I can't imagine a setting where I'd ever listen again.
Another album that made me wonder what they heard to make them include it on this list. Nothing of interest.
Love Pixies idiosyncratic style and energy. Love Doolittle, this is a close 2nd.
I've never heard Notorious BIG before, he's an undeniable talent but this overly long album lacks variety and it's not long before fatigue sets in. Would have been ⭐⭐⭐⭐ if it was shorter.
Simply terrible, it'd be awful even if it wasn't live.
Remarkable, emotional and uplifting. An amazing album that keeps surprising. The ending is a bit too much though.
Cool smooth Bowie with very little lowlights. Fame is an absolute banger👌🙌
No reason for this to be on this list. An average album brought low by awful vocals
Uplifting and funky as hell. Every musician in the backing band is at the top of their game
Sounding dated due to the very 80's style. Still enjoyable and amusing in its own right due to ridiculous bass lines and overly depressing lyrics and delivery.
Absolutely brilliant. An uplifting classic that I'd guaranteed to put you in a good mood despite some of its darker undertones and subject matter.
Surprisingly accessable and not as hard as I thought it would be. When the mood hits right I was enjoying it, feels immature in places though
Bad 80's Coldplay. Added 1 star for Every Breath You Take.
Sounds like a demo tape.
A brilliant breakthrough album that is as good now as it was back then.
Insipid nonsense
