Eagles

5/5

Love the Eagles, such a great debut album. The hits are great, but even the deep cuts are super enjoyable.

Morrissey

Fairly boring. Easy enough listen.

The Village Green Preservation Society

The Kinks

1/5

Boring. All sounds the same. Weird songs, not accessible.

Born In The U.S.A.

Bruce Springsteen

3/5

Decent, perhaps a tiny bit overrated. Dated sounding, but some good songs. Springsteen isn't the best singer.

Shake Your Money Maker

The Black Crowes

4/5

If You're Feeling Sinister

Belle & Sebastian

2/5

Not necessarily my cup of tea, but I can recognize the significance of it. Enjoyable enough songs, but I probably won't listen again.

The Rising

Bruce Springsteen

3/5

Unpopular opinion, but I think it's better than Born in the USA. Enjoyable, but only as a background listen, though.

Pretenders

2/5

Not my cup of tea. Brass in Pocket is a classic, but the rest of the album isn't really for me.

On The Beach

Neil Young

2/5

Eh. Not my favourite Neil Young, though I do like some of his stuff. More of a mellow album throughout. I did like the title track though!

Non-Stop Erotic Cabaret

Soft Cell

1/5

Definitely not for me.

My Generation

The Who

4/5

Doesn't sound like The Who that we know now, but was interesting to hear where they started. Not my favourite genre of music but I can recognize the significance of it. Enjoyable listen!

Maxwell's Urban Hang Suite

Maxwell

3/5

Certainly had some promise, though it fades a bit too much by the end. Not enough energy to finish nicely. But enjoyable background music.

Here's Little Richard

Little Richard

2/5

Once you've heard one or two, you've basically heard them all, but there is value there.

From Elvis In Memphis

Elvis Presley

1/5

Gross

New York Dolls

1/5

Not for me.

Station To Station

David Bowie

2/5

I find Bowie to be overrated. I don't find this really all that enjoyable to listen to, it doesn't make me want to come back to it either. I'm sure I'm in the minority on this one.

Underwater Moonlight

The Soft Boys

1/5

Bad

The Madcap Laughs

Syd Barrett

1/5

Just bad

Call of the Valley

Shivkumar Sharma

2/5

Not really for me. Decent enough I suppose

The Gershwin Songbook

Ella Fitzgerald

4/5

One of the best voices ever. Lovely tunes.

Pink Flag

Wire

4/5

Certainly not the kind of music I listen to normally, but I actually found it somewhat enjoyable for what it was.

The Soft Bulletin

The Flaming Lips

3/5

Not bad

The xx

1/5

Disappointing after the first track. That was all I knew of The xx, and was excited to listen through the album. The rest of it falls short, unfortunately.

1999

Prince

2/5

Honestly, I was hyped for this, but it fell flat. Aside from the couple of hits, it sounded like Prince was experimenting to learn how to produce, and then just released his practices.

Yankee Hotel Foxtrot

Wilco

1/5

Heroes

David Bowie

1/5

I just don't get Bowie. Not for me.

Let's Get Killed

David Holmes

1/5

bad

Junkyard
