1989 by Taylor Swift

Not aimed at me. If I was a 13 year old girl then maybe! My idea of music is something more than squawking along to a computer backing track. Listened to about 6 'tunes' before wasting my life was no longer an option. 1 star

Songs From The Big Chair by Tears For Fears
Feb 22 2022

Always slightly put off listening to this album as the singles , especially Shout and Everybody Wants To Rule The World were a source of constant irritation back in the day due to seemingly never being off the radio! I much preferred the later Sewing The Seeds Of Love album featuring the great Oleta Adams which had less of an 80s production ( to these ears at least). However it's hard to deny the brilliance of the songwriting and the arrangements and I was surprised by how much of it I'd already heard. Favourite tracks have to be The Working Hour and I Believe. 7/10

KIWANUKA by Michael Kiwanuka

Love it. 60s influenced psychedelic soul.

Siembra by Willie Colón & Rubén Blades

Not my thing

Teenager Of The Year by Frank Black
Mar 04 2022

Better than expected. Heard the Pixies decades ago and wasn't keen. Varied influences from the 50s through the 90s. Great songwriting and some lovely guitar. Maybe a bit manic in parts.

Sign 'O' The Times by Prince
Mar 05 2022

The only artist to get the funk out of a drum machine!

Music in Exile by Songhoy Blues
Mar 08 2022

Great music but language barrier makes it difficult to listen to easily
