This is totally my jam
First time listening to a whole Jimi album.
Bit of a snooze fest, wasn't really in the mood for this.
wow, what fun, got a bit weird around born to run but such a nostalgic sound
Ahh memories. This is the album that got me into Grizzly Bear back in 2013.
OK, yeah a bit of fun and a few memories.
This is totally my jam
Feel like I've heard these songs in some shape or form over the years. Really love Sunworshipper which I first heard on a Ministry of Sound Chillout Sessions album in 2007.
Ah yes, music for the Jilted Generation indeed.
I remember listening to my Dad's Deep Purple records (yep, vinyl) when I was a young un. Still enjoy these grooves.
Wow, I really enjoyed that. Wasn't sure at the start, but the short punchy songs really got me going. All topped off with a cruisy come down at the end.
Still such a great album to this day. Great work Hole.
Timeless classic and very enjoyable.
I feel like live albums are better if you are either intimately familiar with the band or have been to an awesome concert. Not sure they're talking about my generation but still a good fun listen.
Wow, that was a really fun listen. I should probably spend some more time with ol' Bob.
I haven't spent much time with this album but certainly enjoyable.
This is right up my alley. Love this band so much and this album has been on high rotation for a long time.
That was a struggle for me to get through on a zoom intensifies kind of day with the only music being this album which I did not enjoy, although it had a few interesting moments.
Just grateful that this doesn't have Hotel California on it. Being their debut, this is a pretty impressive album.
Oh, wow, never listened to these guys before but am a big fan or Spiritualized. What a fun trip.
Totally not what I was expecting from Peter Gabriel! What a fun listen.
Most of my exposure to Leonard Cohen was from the Natural Born Killers soundtrack and newer stuff. This album is incredble and definitely makes me want to dig deeper.
This is the guy you want singing at your wedding. So much fun.
I do very much like this album and well played by the team :hat-tip:
Christmas already? Oh, not a christmas album but feels like one.
Well my Mum was a big fan of The Rolling Stones, so this makes me think of my Mum and that made me happy.
Always been a Kraftwerk fan. This is right up my alley.
Ahh yes, the division of joy. Meloncholy at it's best.
For someone who has not listened to a lot of Taylor Swift this was quite a pleasant surprise.
I've never heard Leonard Cohen like this before. What a groover.
Nothing like a bit of swedish punk from the naughties
I don't really get it.
Wow, most of these songs are completely unfamiliar to me. Very enjoyable!
That was strangely familiar and so much fun.
wow, the 20th anniversary edition is 7 years old. Still a good fun pop rock album.
I love this album, always have.
I still love you Lana Del Rey
What a fun listen, Party Line is a crackup, Sunny Afternoon sure is a cracker.
Wow, what a journey. Krautrock had me from the getgo, The Sad Skinhead gets stuck in your smashed up faces. Giggly Smile is as catchy as all get out. But Lauft.. is the track that stole my heart.
This album slaps in you in the face straight out of the gate but from Helpless onwards reminds me more of Barenaked Ladies than punk :D Fave track: A Good Idea.
I've been a big fan of Fiona Apple for a long time. This album definitely needs a couple of listens. My fave is probably Fetch the Bolt Cutters.
Never really paid much attention to Arcade Fire but have always liked what I've heard. Ready to Start is a fave on this album and Rococo kept catching my attention and might need a few more listens to fully understand. But Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains) is my absolute favourite.
This album feels very reminiscent of it's time. The earlier tracks sound familiar in some way but I found the whole album a struggle.
This felt like one cohesive piece rather than 4 individual tracks. I rather much enjoyed the whole thing.
What a great trip, with the start buying the drugs and the end with a crash.
Such a great album. Jane's Addiction is one of those bands that all my friends were into so I never really dove deep. Really loved Three Days and Classic Girl is a great closer.
Feels like there's one or two good songs on here that get rehashed over and over again. I think African Dance and Jazzie's Groove are standouts for me,
I've got a whole lotta love for the Zep, but I think my fave from this album is Heartbreaker.
Really enjoyed Afternoon Tea and Harry Rag is good fun.
I've probably said this before about live albums but I feel they are better if you have seen the band live yourself. On first listen the screaming fans got to me but by the end of the record I was enjoying the experience so the second listen was more enjoyable. I'd say favourite tracks would be Surrender and Clock Strikes Ten.
A bit much to take in all at once. Standout track is probably Parchman Farm.
Good fun album. Really enjoyed Lazy Sunday, Mad John, and Happydaystoytown.
What a banger. I really enjoyed this and am having trouble picking a favourite track. Walk is most familiar but so many other tracks are just great.
Richard III easily favourite track, also enjoyed the acoustic version of Caught By The Fuzz. Overall an enjoyable listen.
This album sure does take you on a journey through the south. I feel like I'm missing quite a bit of context but I started to get into this album a bit more on the second listen. Favourites are 72, Three Great Alabama Icons, Let There Be Rock, and Dead, Drunk And Naked . The closer, Angels and Fuselage, feels like a good late night song.
Sometimes Blur sounds like Gorrillaz and sometimes Gorrillaz sounds like Blur but this album is pure Blur. Fave tracks are For Tomorrow and Chemical World.
Wow, that was a lot more fun that I was expecting. Fave track is Show Me, really sets the scene as the opener. And the track Theme from "Mantrap" is the perfect closer.
This album starts out so promising with Chich Cheer setting the mood and Le Freak building on that. But rest of the record just kind of fades into the background and doesn't really go anywhere.
A very enjoyable listen. Hard to pick a favourite but Dead Leave and the Dirty Ground really sets the mood. The other songs that caught my attention are just the more well known ones like Hotel Yorba, and I Think I Smell A Rat but the album probably needs a few more listens.
Easy listening. Fave track is Gonna Keep On Tryin' Till I Win Your Love
Raucous fun. Favourite tracks are Trouble and Me, Let the Sad Times Roll On, The Band Keeps Playin' On.
Good fun listen. Faves are the title and I Got Caught.
Very enjoyable album with lots of great tracks. Especially like Jesus, Etc., Ashes of American Flags, Heavy Metal Drummer, and Reservations.
Take on Me is just so well known the rest of the album just kind of fades into oblivion. But I did enjoy the title track and Here I Stand and Face the Rain is a nice closer.
I'm a big fan of Kate Bush and this is a great album. Really enjoyed Sat In Your Lap, Suspended in Gaffa, and The Dreaming.
Big fan, love this album, no favourite tracks, it's all good.
I don't mind the first 3 songs, and the last (instrumental). Was surprised to hear their version of We'll Meet Again.
Yeah, nah. Didn't really get into this one. Fave track Cure for the Itch.
What a groove! Really liked the opener You Ain't The Problem as well as Rolling, the Piano Joint (intro + song), Living in Denial, and Light. But damn, it's all good.
Didn't really get into this one, although by the end of the second listen I started to see some of the progressive elements in songs like The Camera Eye, Witch Hunt, and Vital Signs which are probably my favourite from this album.
So dreamy. Strangely Ivo doesn't really capture me but once Lorelei kicks in I fall in love all over again.
Such a classic album really. A lot of great tracks but Something In The Way is my fave.
One of those bands you know of but didn't really know you knew until Sunshine Of Your Love kicks in.
Wow, just wow. First time round didn't really get much out of this but second time around I started hearing Radiohead and Stereolab. TIL that I heart krautrock. Fave track is totes Halleluhwah
Another one of those bands that one of my friends was deeply into but I wasn't. Reading the history of this album was interesting but I didn't find it overly compelling, Love Bites and Pour Some Sugar On Me got stuck in my head but not sure if that makes them faves.
Spotify says Blue Suede Shoes has 102 milltion plays. This album was good fun to listen to but no real standout for me except for the better known songs.
Another good fun listen but the only standout for me was Tutti Frutti.
This was a lot more enjoyable than I was expecting and probably deserves a bit more exploration. Fave tracks are Parental Discretion Iz Advised, Express Yourself, and I really like the way Something 2 Dance 2 wraps up the album.
I don't think I've ever heard ABBA like this before. Nice surprise with fave tracks being Two For The Price Of One, You Owe My One, and The Day Before You Came.
Good fun listen, I'm sure my dad had a ELO record but can't remember which one. Fave tracks Sweet Talkin' Woman, Birmingham Blues, and of course My Blue Sky is a cracker.
Yeah nah, this is not my jam. I did not look forward to a second listen but I perservered and my faves would be Pyramids and Bad Religion.
Wow, 1971, this is so timeless. The whole album is a great trip but I particularly enjoyed L'hôtel particulier.
Took me a while to get an understanding of this one so I gave it 3 listens. I feel like I need to spend a bit more time with Tom Waits but for this release I liked the title track, Downtown, On The Nickel, and Ruby's Arms is a nice closer.
Good raucous fun. Fave tracks California Sun, Weekend, and (I Love For) Cars and Girls.
I've always been a fan of Talking Heads but never spent much time with this album. I Zimbra sets the mood, Life During Wartime sounds eerily like the Bunnings theme song, and Dancing for Money is a trip. Overall feels just as relevant today.
Standout tracks for me are Answering Machine and Unsatisfied. Androgynous is a well known hit. Overall the album is charming enough.
Maybe I need to be more British to get the full Bragg experience but an enjoyable album all the same. Fave track is Greetings to the New Brunette.
Reminds me a lot of Salif Keita who my dad was really into during my late teens. Very enjoyable bop, a few standout tracks but Salminanam is the only one I remembered the name of.
I quite enjoyed this one but also learnt this is one of 6 in the list! Wow. Anyway, enjoyed 13 Steps Lead down, 20% Amnesia, and Sulky Girl.
Wow, turns out I might actually be a Bob Dylan fan. Really enjoyed this one especailly Outlaw Blues (I might be a bit biased) and Bob Dylan's 115th Dream is a crackup at the start. Definitely keen to get into some more.
Oooh, I really like this one. Nocutnal Me grabbed me from the first listen and I think I like it more than Killing Moon.
First listen I wasn't really getting into this and was thinking 3 but it must of got me into the mood for a second listen because now it's a solid 4. Love the tracks Grounds for Divorce, Hotel Instanbul, and One Day Like This is incredible.
