The Undertones
The Undertones
Listening to this album made me imagine my Dad careering around the streets of suburbia in his Vauxhall Viva modified with twin carbs; me in the back seat barely secured to the hot, faux leather vinyl that passed as a bench seat, him with his brown Aviators, 'tash, flared trousers and mop of hair blowing in the wind. Then I remembered he was more into Meat Loaf at the time and the daydream was shattered.
Although lyrically, teenage kicks is still relevant today and the album as a whole was not unenjoyable if a little repetitive towards the end, I think this will end up forgotton, like a rusting car with Teenage Kicks as the singular component rescued and remembered in a museum of classics.

Can
Did not know what to expect with this one. There's so much going on here and it gets better with every play through.
Stand out tracks for me are Mushroom and the experimental, brooding crescendo of sounds in Aumgn which transported me somewhere else altogether. Perhaps the wailing soundscape of Peking O goes a little too far into the avant-garde, but overall this is a stunning album, I can't even imagine being hit with this in 1971. So good.
Probably not one to play at a dinner party though, unless your friend Saffron is planning to lace the avocado salad with something.

Alexander 'Skip' Spence
Had never heard of Skip and doing a bit of pre-reading I was ready to dismiss this out of hand.
It's a surprising one, there's a variety of stuff on here and it never felt samey. War in Peace sounds like something Radiohead would produce and there's a range in his voice which adds to the appeal. Seems like Skip had a difficult life and you can feel it in some of these songs. It's not in any way polished but maybe that's part of the appeal. Overall, I enjoyed this.

Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)
Wu-Tang Clan
Do like me some hip-hop, but many of the tracks here have either aged like milk or were puerile to start with, and it's another culprit for pre and post-fixing tracks with skits which add little or just detract completely.
Probably went down better in a cow-hide Chrysler Fifth Avenue, discussing your gang issues, at the time of release.

I realised I was listening to this reminiscing about university days, and even though this album came out quite a long while before I attended, it somehow became part of the soundtrack to those times after being introduced to Nirvana by a friend I met there.
Fired this up and it took me back, being as great to listen to now as it was then.
So yeah I'm probably slightly biased, but the last track notwithstanding which I never got on with (I'm gonna ignore that), it's a solid 5 for me.

I was on the cusp of giving this a 4, Cherry-Coloured Funk has been a favourite for as long as I care to remember with its haunting synth and contrasting range of vocals, some of which are Kate-Bush-like in nature but ultimately all gel together brilliantly as a song that doesn't go on too long (unlike this sentence).
And the rest of the album is, well, alright. But always found myself wishing I was listening to the first track again.

Thursday morning. Nearly the end of the week. Lounging on my velour recliner for a moment of contemplation, it's a sunny day and the light is streaming through the window highlighting the dust in the air. Rising out the seat, I glance in the mirror and my oversize collar is on point with the brown and yellow earth tones in the tie I picked out earlier. Aviators on and quickly check the moustache - nice.
I leave for work, climb into the car and Curtis plays in the background on the 8-track. Sunlight glints on my glasses and I'm feeling the beats, one arm out the window as I drive. It's going to be a good day.

By the time I get to Earlybird, and the banjo kicks in, I'm thinking of Convoy. Y'know, the Movie. Yep, we're in peak flag-waving, soft-rock, 'Murica territory. Which is fine, but there's a limited appeal and audience for that, which I am not in.

Well prepared, forgettable soup.
Didn't hate this. Unfortunately though, it elicited no discernible emotional response beyond apathy. What is music if not to lift the soul?
There's some thought behind the lyrics - but the music they're saddled with is so non-descript it's hard to care less. All the nuance is lost in the cloying do-bops and tsch-bop-bops that smother the record like an unremarkable blanket.
Probably at one point I've heard snippets of this in a hotel lobby but I don't know because I wouldn't remember it; case in point ended up listening to most of the album twice for the purposes of this because it fused with the background noise on the first occasion.
Trying a little harder on the second attempt, the initial chord progressions in the unfathomably beloved Deacon Blues set the scene for a whole bunch of nothing to happen, and as listeners, we're not proved wrong with this assumption.
Music should make you feel alive, this is beige soup for beige people with beige lives and beige ambitions who live in beige houses and drive beige cars to beige stores and ask for a manager when they get there because beige products are out of stock. There's a scene. And Steely Dan is playing in the background, naturally.
So anyway, it was dull. Maybe one day I'll hear it again and not even know. 1/5

Great. Made even better by the memory of the late, great, Sean Lock using samples of Le Freak as a buzzer sound effects on "8 out of 10 Cats does Countdown", accompanied by a completely non-apologetic shit-eating grin.

5 - it reminds me of someone being the best.
Yet also 1 - reminds me of same someone being inexplicably shitty.
It's got to be a 3.

Thelonious Monk
Hello, and welcome to Jazz Club.
Next up, Thelononius Monk with Scuba-dooba-dooba-bal-ue-surrender-panna-cotta-sandwich, with Sonny Rollins, Ernie Henry and Clark Terry. Also featuring Off Kilter chords and Sax that gatecrashed from a whole other song.
Listen out for the smoky bass 10 minutes into Bolivar and get ready for those textured drum beats. Sensational.
Let's listen again. Nice👌🏻

- DO NOT LISTEN TO TRACK 1 FIRST -
It was alright, but nearly lost the will to live after the opening minutes of track 1, and this is coming from someone who usually rates prog rock quite highly. Quite an enjoyable listen once I got past that.

It's good, but inevitably I anticipate a way will be found to not STFU about it even come heat death of the universe, which stops it being a 5.
