Superunknown by Soundgarden
Jan 19 2022

I tried to listen to it all m, I really did but I got to Limo Wreck and realised I was never going to enjoy it. Black Hole Sun is the high point for me but it stands far above all the other tracks in the album. I’m not averse to grunge, I was heavily into Pearl Jam back in the day, but this was just one long interminable dirge to my ears.

Beauty And The Beat by The Go-Go's
Jan 20 2022

The apostrophe really bugs me. Surprised by how much I enjoyed this one. I lived in Japan when they appeared on the scene so actually missed them first time around, along with a lot of 1981 things. They’ve seeped through to my cultural consciousness over time though. Very poppy and punky, they seem to occupy the same space as The Runaways (Cherry Bomb) and The Bangles, with occasional weird overtones of The Beach Boys. I wouldn’t go out of my way to listen to them, but I’ve not felt the urge to skip a track. Some good road trip tunes in there. The drummer is brilliant. Particularly in Can’t Stop The World. High point: Lust to Love.
