Warren Zevon
5/5
Really glad this list can still turn up a gem like this occasionally, i really enjoyed this. My pre-listen scan didn’t bode well, 70s American, cover looks like a young Deirdre Barlow, nominated by somebody who rated The Bends as a 1. First song didn’t grab me at first but by the end I was won over

3/5
Good to have a change from the UK/US core of the list. Probably the first Portuguese album I’ve knowingly listened to. Can’t make out a word of the lyrics and but it did suit the music well drifting from smoother Spanish sounding to a harder more Eastern European vibe. Personal view decent but probably won’t be revisiting but glad to have heard it and a good addition to the list
