Cheap Thrills

Big Brother & The Holding Company

2/5

some enjoyable tracks but mastering/production rubbish in parts with balance of instruments and vocals

Endtroducing.....

DJ Shadow

4/5

Enjoyed this, for something 26 years old it doesn't sound particular dated. Pretty phenomenal for a debut record.

Electric Warrior

T. Rex

4/5

I quite enjoyed this whole album. While I'd heard one or two songs off it, overall it's got great guitar and rhythm and the vocals were great too.

GREY Area

Little Simz

3/5

Wasn’t sure what to expect from this. Not a genre I frequent. Ended up listening to most of it twice, couple of tracks I really wasn’t into (2nd) but some I quite enjoyed. 3rd, 4th, 9th. Quite interesting Rhythm/beats, with mixture of instruments/sounds (strings etc) etc.

The Blueprint

JAY Z

3/5

The whole rappers feuding with other rappers and dis track thing doesn’t really do me. Never the less, nicely produced with some good tunes in there.

Tigermilk

Belle & Sebastian

4/5

Quite enjoyed this, might be the album, might be because I’m at the beach on holiday…

Play

Moby

5/5

I love this album, played heaps when younger, the dudes a bit crazy but putting that side, great album.

Born In The U.S.A.

Bruce Springsteen

2/5

Meh. The ‘America’ ness is a bit heavy handed for me. Couple of decent tracks.

Transformer

Lou Reed

3/5

Couple of excellent tracks on here. But some really odd lyrics on others. I will say that the production quality is excellent, Bowies hand showing.

Californication

Red Hot Chili Peppers

3/5

Some genuinely good stuff on here. Bits I’m not into as well. Dunno if just the Apple Music mastering but wildly different volumes across a couple of tracks.

Crime Of The Century

Supertramp

4/5

Some high points on this album, but some bland bits too. Definitely a 70s sounds palate, bit of prog rock, ballad etc. Almost gave it a 4 but ultimately decided Better music albums from the mid 70s.

good kid, m.A.A.d city

Kendrick Lamar

2/5

I know it’s critically acclaimed but I find it hard to connect with and then appreciate the lyrics and writing. It’s not unlistenable but not something I’d chose.

Neon Bible

Arcade Fire

4/5

Great album even 15 years on. Taking into account when it was written 2006/7 the messaging around the commercialisation and exploitation of Religion makes more sense in that context. The gloomy tone is helped by the usage of organ etc throughout the album. Intervention, no car go, my body is a cage, keep the car running some of my favourites off this album. Doesn’t get as much credit as it should, probably not helped by being the follower to one of the most acclaimed indie debuts ever.

Songs For Swingin' Lovers!

Frank Sinatra

3/5

It’s of a time and of a style. Feel like I’m in my grandparents living room after dinner and a full dessert, sitting on the couch.

Elvis Presley

3/5

Undoubtably a important album. Find it hard to appreciate how unique this must have sounded upon release.

Trafalgar

Bee Gees
