Quiet Life
Japan
Pretty good! I was surprised! Remember these from being a kid but never really knew much of the their music but I enjoyed it. Like a cross between Duran Duran, Depeche Mode and the Cure

Songs Of Love And Hate
Leonard Cohen
This is one of those albums that you have to be in the mood to listen too. Like on a comedown or when you’re feeling low. Today wasn’t one of those days so whilst it’s a great album, it’s only 3 stars today

Mixed bag. Some great choons like Freak Scene but some average ones. This album could be better with a few more good songs

Ready To Die
The Notorious B.I.G.
Wow! A pure, solid punch of hip hop!
Gangsta at its best, only play this to your granny if she’s hard of hearing as the expletives roll out every few seconds.
Classic!

My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy
Kanye West
Don’t believe the hype.
Disappointed. Heard this was a modern classic, a piece of genius that has influence so many. Pretty average and garbage in places. Won’t be listening again.
An embarrassment to hip hop

Electric Ladyland
Jimi Hendrix
Brilliant! An album that takes you on a bluesy, psychedelic journey of riffs and distortion. Some
Classic choons and some of Hendrix’s biggest and best known. Sadly didn’t have to time listen to all of it so a second run is welcome

Decent album. Some great choons but all gets a bit samey, bit dates, heard it so many times. Not one I’d keep going back to

Garbage. Didn’t like this. Was never a fan of Blur and Damon Albarn’s voice just grates on me.
Nil point. (Said in a French accent France 🇫🇷)

Loved this! I knew of Goldfrapp but never really took much notice. Great vocals, lovely, airy music and fine melodies. Definitely worth more listening time!

Meat Is Murder

Clasicc Smiths. Their sound is unique and with Morrissey’s lyrics and Marr’s jangling guitars it a perfect combination. One of Manchester’s finest

A really nice album, great for a late listen with a couple of beers. Some amazing songs and topped off with that sublime oboe solo on Walk in the Wild Side

Everything Must Go
Manic Street Preachers
Yeah, it was ok. Some banging choons individually to be fair but as an album I thought it was all a bit samey. Not one I’d be reaching for too regularly but would give the odd song a listen.

The Lexicon Of Love

Classic 80s pop! Some brilliant choons, reminds a of my big brother and people who I’ve come to know living in my adopted city of Sheffield.
Great bass lines, quality synth and some really sublime vocals from Martin Fry.
Excellent.

Really enjoyed this. Sublime, dreamy and trippy electronica that sometimes made me feel I was watching some sort of sci fi film.
Must try more of their music

Queen Of Denmark
John Grant
Hmmmm…
Quite liked the choons and musical arrangements, some great solos and well put together but I felt like he was constantly singing using auto-choon which spoiled it for me. Like a male version of Cher

Berlin
Lou Reed
Not really enjoying this. Disappointed. Thought it would be a blinder, but average at best. Lou Reed sounds bored mist of the time. Some half decent choons but generally pretty dull and body

Ok. Always thought Pulp were overrated TBH, which is a bit controversial when you live in Sheffield but they only had a couple of good tracks really. The rest got on my nerves a bit.
Average.
