Talking Book
Stevie WonderNot a fan of soul/R&B and the cheesy schmaltz of the opening track ‘you are the sunshine of my life’ was a terrible start. Sorry Stevie, not for me

Crooked Rain Crooked Rain
PavementOne of the best low-fi bands and one of their best albums, Malkmus is a genius with the guitar. Range Life, Cut Your Hair & Gold Soundz all superb tracks

This Year's Model
Elvis Costello & The AttractionsEnjoyed this more than My Aim Is True, maybe because of the addition of the Attractions which gives the sound more power, Pump It Up the best track

Is This It
The StrokesDespite the band all being entitled art school types with rich parents this still sounded amazingly fresh when it was released. I saw them perform the album in order in Sheffield just after it was released and they were fantastic. A classic album

Happy Trails
Quicksilver Messenger ServiceThere are times when bands jam with each other which is fine, however there’s no need to record and release their dicking about to inflict on innocent passer-bys
