Dirt by Alice In Chains

The grungy sameness of it all makes for difficult listening.

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens

Not my cup of tea, too plinky-plonky!

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
Feb 26 2021

Not my cup of tea, too plinky-plonky!

The Atomic Mr Basie by Count Basie & His Orchestra
Feb 27 2021

Pleasant background music, like the soundtrack to every '50s crime B film. Listenable but nothing to write home about.

Pretenders by Pretenders
Feb 28 2021

OK, good for what it is. Catchy singles and interesting tunes.

Music for the Masses by Depeche Mode
Mar 01 2021

Its alright, like most 80s synth pop its a bit limp wristed, lacking depth and excitement.

Heaven Or Las Vegas by Cocteau Twins
Mar 02 2021

Fairly standard synth pop with a good voice on top. Need to work on their lyrics though. Songs don't really go anywhere or not anywhere I want to go. Singer elevates them to 3 stars.

Songs In The Key Of Life by Stevie Wonder
Mar 03 2021

Good album if you like this sort of thing...however I found the sameness of the singing a bit tedious and some of the songs inordinately long. At 21 tracks its just too much boredom for one sitting.

Tres Hombres by ZZ Top
Mar 04 2021

At last, an album I can enjoy, energy, variety whats not to like!

Thriller by Michael Jackson
Mar 05 2021

Not my thang! The clinical production robs the songs of character leaving it a bit dull.

Dirt by Alice In Chains
Mar 06 2021

The grungy sameness of it all makes for difficult listening.

Marquee Moon by Television
Mar 09 2021

Not to bad actually! Bit characterless- something missing.

Nothing's Shocking by Jane's Addiction
Mar 10 2021

Interesting sounds, could do with some better material

Oxygène by Jean-Michel Jarre
Mar 11 2021

Great record, still got the vinyl somewhere.

Something/Anything? by Todd Rundgren
Mar 12 2021

Proficient soft rock, listenable but not too exciting.

Rejoicing In The Hands by Devendra Banhart
Mar 14 2021

Bit samey, tunes aren't bad but the voice is a bit annoying.

On The Beach by Neil Young
Mar 15 2021

Not his best, but a nice range of music

Parklife by Blur
Mar 16 2021

Not bad, too much for one sitting. Obvious standout songs but the B material is OK.

Let It Bleed by The Rolling Stones
Mar 17 2021

Three standout tracks, some mediocre and a couple of fillers. Good album

Headquarters by The Monkees
Mar 18 2021

Lightweight pop dross

Bat Out Of Hell by Meat Loaf
Mar 19 2021

Typical American pop/rock, musics over produced and I just can't stand his voice!

Low by David Bowie
Apr 06 2021
Odessa by Bee Gees
Apr 18 2021
Tommy by The Who
Apr 25 2021
Led Zeppelin III by Led Zeppelin
May 24 2021

Why can I not give this six stars!

Mott by Mott The Hoople
