Michael Jackson
2/5
It holds some of his most known songs and it is very well produced, but it's not for me.
Beatles
4/5
This album is mostly great but the greatness is combined with some annoying experimental songs that left out would make this a solid five star experience. Now it is a mediocre four.
Bob Dylan
3/5
Tangled up in Blue. ..this is great
Simple Twist of Fate...this is also great
Third track...this is not good
Fourth track...goes on forever...boring
Fifth...yes he is back on track
Sixth, seventh and eight...nope this is plain boring
Shelter from the storm...this is good
Final song...nope
The good song are really good, the rest is not so good. His voice can be very annoying, I hate the Hammond organ.
Michael Jackson
2/5
It have some hits.
Besides from that it is not much to have.
Billy Bragg

Nick Drake
4/5
The Smiths
5/5
Yes. This. Just. Yes!
This is one these albums that have defined my taste in music.
It might no be flawless.
It might sound dated to some.
But for me it is a walk down memory lane.
And what a pleasant walk it is.
The Kinks
3/5
Michael Kiwanuka
5/5
What a pleasant surprise, I have read about him but never listened to an album before. Today I listened to this album three times. And shared it with a bunch of people as well.
Frank Zappa
1/5
Al Green
4/5
The Stone Roses
5/5
This one my top five albums, one of the easiest five star reviews ever.
Everthing they wrote and recorded around 88-91 are just magic.
The National
5/5
As good as it gets. Great production, great music and fantastic lyrics.
The Rolling Stones
2/5
Why is this album so highly rated? A bunch of boring songs sung by a man with a lousy voice.
Can

Ramones

29 minutes of pure bliss.
More sixties pop than punk.
Sam Cooke

The Beach Boys

Barry Adamson
3/5
Never heard of him before, but then I read some and found out that I at least had heard him before - in the Bad Seeds.
This record was very uneven, som songs are great other not so much. But I will listen to other records by Adamson, might find some gold.
Sly & The Family Stone
3/5
Perhaps an import record at its time, not a personal favorite.
Mariah Carey
1/5
Massive Attack
4/5
Super songs mixed with not so good songs.
2/5
One star album with one extra star for Starlight.

Baaba Maal

New artist.
After one song...bye
Pet Shop Boys
2/5
Yay..Pet shop boys, I rarely listen to any full album when it comes to this duo. Four songs in I remember why. This has not aged well. If I remember correctly I thought so when the album first came out as well.
