The Blueprint by JAY Z
Feb 23 2024

Like the beats and rhythm, some of the harmonies are great. Just don't connect to the lyrics.

Murmur by R.E.M.
Feb 27 2024

Majestic pop. One of the finest albums of all time. Great debut album from R.E.M with the main highlights being Peter Buck's guitar.

Medúlla by Björk
Feb 29 2024

Really enjoyed her first 2 albums, and the reminded me why I stopped listening to her. Just a bit screechy vocals in too many of the songs. Gave up half way through.

Aha Shake Heartbreak by Kings of Leon
Mar 01 2024

Confirmed what I remember that there are several good songs but his high pitch vocals on this album leave me cold. However that new single 'Mustang' is a belter

Bat Out Of Hell by Meat Loaf
Mar 04 2024

If I ever have to hear this album again it will be too soon. Pomp musical rock drama is awful, pretentious nonsense.

Damaged by Black Flag
Mar 07 2024

OK. Bit too shouty for my taste

Mask by Bauhaus
Mar 08 2024

Couple of classic Goth tracks but the rest were a bit ruin of the mill.

Mar 09 2024

Absolute Classic. One of the finest albums released in the last 50 years. This has everything. Supreme

Dummy by Portishead
Mar 10 2024

Absolute stone cold classic album. They created their own distinctive sound with this album that so many artists tried to copy. Berth Gibbons vocals are sublime.

Suede by Suede
Mar 11 2024

Cracking debut album from Suede which highlighted what a force they were going to be. They were the perfect sound for Britain at the time of release and completely hooked a generation with their pristine lyrics. This album has travelled well over the decades and still sounds as relevant today.

Mar 13 2024

Great little debut album. Couple of classic tracks that totally sum up that moment in time.

The Visitors by ABBA
Mar 14 2024

A more mature sound for one of the most highly rated ABBA albums. Sounds like lyrically they were getting ready to write musicals. The Day Before We Came is the stand out song.

Remedy by Basement Jaxx
Mar 15 2024
21 by Adele
Mar 16 2024
Oar by Alexander 'Skip' Spence
Mar 17 2024

Not really a lot to say except it was dull

Murder Ballads by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Mar 18 2024

Couple of great tracks followed by too many paint by numbers Cave songs

Mar 22 2024

Surprisingly better than I anticipated. Lots more to Devo than the Whip It single. Will come back to this again soon.

Electric Warrior by T. Rex
Mar 24 2024

Timeless. Great production from Tony Visconti.

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Mar 26 2024

Too bland for me.

The Yes Album by Yes
Mar 28 2024

Twaddle. Everything I don't like in music.

Lost In The Dream by The War On Drugs
Mar 31 2024

Cracking album. Well worth sticking with and then it'll be hooked into your brain.

Aftermath by The Rolling Stones
Apr 02 2024
The Stone Roses by The Stone Roses
Apr 03 2024

Sublime album. Soundtrack of it's generation

Brothers by The Black Keys
Apr 05 2024
Junkyard by The Birthday Party
Apr 08 2024

Nope. Like Nick Cave solo but not The Birthday Party
