Blood On The Tracks

Bob Dylan

4/5

Big girl now is a favourite of mine. Unpopular opinion I know, but it’s background music for me.

Live At The Regal

B.B. King

5/5

Yes yes yes! Love this album. All the blues you’ll ever need.

A Rush Of Blood To The Head

Coldplay

5/5

Fantastic album, totally listenable. All bar one song which is pretty impressive.

C'est Chic

CHIC

4/5

Great album. Easy listening, two classic hits.

Untitled (Black Is)

SAULT

3/5

Musically I’m not there with this album but I appreciate its political importance

Channel Orange

Frank Ocean

2/5

Am I missing a backstory? I’m not sure why this has made it on the list. A mix of pop/soul and high school musical/Riverdale. Doesn’t really go anywhere. It’s not unbearable however.

Dry

PJ Harvey

3/5

Was alright. Not a genre I’d normally listen to, some bearable tracks but all took a while to get into, some I scanned through. If you like a bit of whingy grunge rock full of hate and loathing then you might like this.

Hot Rats

Frank Zappa

2/5

Not my bag

Off The Wall

Michael Jackson

5/5

Phenomenal album. You can’t not move to these tracks.

The Atomic Mr Basie

Count Basie & His Orchestra

4/5

Lovely. Warm, nostalgic, and classy jazz, easy listening (nothing too off beat or overly clever)

Locust Abortion Technician

Butthole Surfers

2/5

Heavy punk…horror movie type music. Unlistenable unless you’re either super super angry and/or demonic.

Rust In Peace

Megadeth

3/5

Classic head banging heavy metal. Fantastic guitar riffs and double pedal drum thrashing. I don’t find this type of music easy to listen to and wouldn’t choose it but totally appreciate the skills.

Get Rich Or Die Tryin'

50 Cent

5/5

Great album.

Vespertine

Björk

5/5

Superb album. Unique and wonderful.

Don't Come Home A Drinkin' (With Lovin' On Your Mind)

Loretta Lynn

4/5

It’s like an idiots guide to country music, tells it as it is, all the country rhythms and southern sounds. Did make me feel a bit sad as she’s obviously been with quite a few drunks in her life. I liked it.

The Doors

2/5

Not sure when I’d listen to this album. It’s not background, dinner music, not party music, I wouldn’t have it on whilst out walking. I don’t get high and I think it would probably be good for that.

Endtroducing.....

DJ Shadow

5/5

Phenomenal album

World Clique

Deee-Lite

2/5

One fantastic song, the others just merged into one and I lost interest

Nevermind

Nirvana

5/5

An east one for me as I know this album pretty well and love it. There are of course a few tracks which I’m totally not bothered by but on the whole a fantastic album full of teenage grunge despair.

Shaka Zulu

Ladysmith Black Mambazo

5/5

Beautiful soothing sounds. Really pleasant relaxing easy listening.

This Is Hardcore

Pulp

3/5

It’s hard to listen to seriously, it’s full of sarcastic wit and comedic observations of society. I’m not a huge pulp fan but get their appeal.

The Hangman's Beautiful Daughter

The Incredible String Band

2/5

I’ve seen too many horror cult movies where someone ends up as the sacrifice, burnt or slaughtered with this type of folk music gently playing over the top…..so as you can imagine not an easy listen for me.

Playing With Fire

Spacemen 3

2/5

No not for me. Semi melodic noise with faint vocals, didn’t listen to the whole album so could of been more ‘singing’ I think you’d have to be proper stoned to enjoy it fully.

2112

Rush

3/5

Quite liked the cheesy rock in this album, I wouldn’t choose to listen to it but it now makes sense of all the other slash metal/rock bands that have mimicked them.

Crosby, Stills & Nash

2/5

Yeah I’d just rather listen to the Beatles

A Seat at the Table

Solange

4/5

Lovely vibes, chilled. Great album.

Fever Ray

3/5

Kinda hypnotic sounds, well, they would be but I found the singers voice to grate on me after a while. I appreciate it but it’s just not music that I would listen to, unless I was like invoking spirits or trying to be mysterious.

Pornography

The Cure

3/5

I’m a ‘best of’ listener of the cure and none of these made that album. Not quite sure why this album made it when they’ve done so much better.
