Apple Venus Volume 1

XTC

It's A Shame About Ray

The Lemonheads

I never really got the Lemonheads; had friends who were super into them, but they always seemed a very generic and not particularly interesting iteration of late 80s-early 90s college rock. Hard not to think the tenuous Harvard-MIT links did a lot of heavy lifting in giving them greater prominence than they deserved. Having said that Mrs Robinson is a banger, one of the best covers of all time (but wasn't originally even on the album). Title track is good. The rest totally forgettable.

Truly an awful album. Some of the worst singing I’ve ever heard.

20 years on I now much prefer Speakerboxxx to The Love Below, which just seems weirdly retrogade and misogynistic on a lyrical level (especially 'Roses'). Too many skits and interludes. And instead of 2 separate albums this could have been one stellar album. Still 4 stars, though, I think?

Live 1966 (The Royal Albert Hall Concert)

Bob Dylan

Obviously this is a very important album to hear, given the pivotal moment of Dylan 'going electric' in the history of music. Honestly, this is not a really interesting album, and what stands out is how much *better* electric Dylan is, because (1) way less harmonica and (2) Dylan's frankly awful voice is less centred. Dylan's a great songwriter, the Nobel was a travesty, this is an essential album to hear, but not a very good or interesting one: all of these things are true and not incompatible with one another.

Rain Dogs

Tom Waits

My third TW album off this list, and head and shoulders above the other two (Nighthawks and Bone Machine). Not saying I'd choose to listen to this on the regular, but listening to this I get him in a way I didn't with the previous albums; weird in a good way

A very good album, but not exactly innovative, or so outstanding that it's more memorable than many other albums that aren't on this list... I like it a lot, I bought it when it came out and listened to it a bunch then, but probably haven't heard it in 20 years. Still holds up, but I don't really understand why it's on this list.

A great great album and another one I heard at a young & important age (still remember staying up late to tape their 1996 concert at the Point off the radio). 5 stars for me for sure. Slightly doubting whether it should be on this list (question how influential it's been) but it is a way better and more polished piece of work than probably half the stuff on this list. And they were *so* young. This album is teenage potential and teenage possibilities in a bottle. Favourite songs: Goldfinger, Angel Interceptor, Darkside Lightside.
