Adele
3/5
Incredible voice, produced to 'perfection' but totally bland and made for the masses. It has it's place, which is not on my list.

The Cure
5/5
This album goes into the (very small) pile of albums that are so good I can't listen to them anymore. I still remember the eeriness of listening to the end of the album slowing down as my walkman batteries died.

Brian Wilson
4/5
It can't get a 5 because I feel it is lacking the magic and fun of the original recordings. It's brilliant and beautiful but original flavour is always the best.

Contains possibly the worst song ever written about New York, among other myriad offences against music.
