Parachutes by Coldplay
Oct 26 2022

This album was my childhood

Raising Hell by Run-D.M.C.
Mar 12 2026

A couple of classics on here, very representative of early hip-hop.

Live And Dangerous by Thin Lizzy
Mar 13 2026

Classic rock, first couple weren't really my speed, but it gets better as it goes on.

Eagles by Eagles
Mar 15 2026

Meh. 70s rock isnt my fave, and this album doesn't even have any of their classics

Basket of Light by Pentangle
Mar 16 2026

Not really my thing because I am neither a hick nor high on psychedelics

Neon Bible by Arcade Fire
Mar 17 2026

I want to like arcade fire but there's not enough here for me

Honky Tonk Heroes by Waylon Jennings
Mar 18 2026

I didn't expect to enjoy this but was happily proven wrong. His voice is great and that swayed it for me

Mar 19 2026

It just as well I agree with his politics because I don't think his music is particularly good. The exception I've found is Home Front. IDK, I understand why the man is important, but I don't particularly care to listen to his music.

Dance Mania by Tito Puente
Mar 20 2026

They just don't make them like they used to huh? Impossible not to feel summery when you can listen to this in the sun. I've never wanted a Pina colada more than when I listen to this at work.

Country Life by Roxy Music
Mar 22 2026

Gets an extra mark just for the album cover

The Atomic Mr Basie by Count Basie & His Orchestra
Mar 24 2026

Chill jazz, can't fault it really

Head Hunters by Herbie Hancock
Mar 25 2026

Not my kind of jazz, a bit all over the ye place

Bad by Michael Jackson
Mar 27 2026

Its the King of Pop at his zenith. This album might not have sold as many as Thriller, but its still damn good.

Blur by Blur
Mar 28 2026

First couple of tracks are classics, I need another run at the rest to properly review the album

The Clash by The Clash
Mar 29 2026

The other Clash album was better, but its still half decent

From Elvis In Memphis by Elvis Presley
Mar 31 2026

They called him the king for a reason, and he's pretty damn good.

Nick Of Time by Bonnie Raitt
Apr 01 2026

Quite fun actually, one I'll come back to

Happy Sad by Tim Buckley
Apr 02 2026

Good voice, but a 12 minute song should be a crime

Urban Hymns by The Verve
Apr 04 2026

Pretty great, shame about the copyright

The Band by The Band
Apr 07 2026

Nothing really stood out, nothing wrong per se, just not very inspiring

John Prine by John Prine
Apr 08 2026

Mid country

Parklife by Blur
Apr 11 2026

A couple of classics on here, but I still don't get the hype around Blur

Immigrés by Youssou N'Dour
Apr 12 2026

Kinda fun, not what I'd usually listen to but it has its place

Sulk by The Associates
Apr 13 2026

Very shrill, not my bag

2112 by Rush
Apr 14 2026
Buena Vista Social Club by Buena Vista Social Club
Apr 15 2026

I'm starting to realise I'm a sucker for latin music

Tragic Songs of Life by The Louvin Brothers
Apr 16 2026

So this is what happens when white americans make music with zero black influence huh

Apr 17 2026

Gets an extra star for patriotism, but this album doesn't grab me sadly

Pearl by Janis Joplin
Apr 18 2026

Not bad actually, Janis I was not familiar with your game

B-52's by The B-52's
Apr 19 2026

Kinda wack but I can understand the appeal at the time

The Specials by The Specials
Apr 20 2026

I wish i could give a half star

Apr 21 2026

This would go so hard if I was driving a truck through Texas after divorcing my wife. But I'm not, so it doesn't.

Talking Book by Stevie Wonder
Apr 23 2026

Stevie Fricking Wonder

Feast of Wire by Calexico
Apr 24 2026

This album is all over the place. I can't place its style or themes. It's not intrinsically bad, but its pretty strange.

Tommy by The Who
May 20 2026

I'm starting to question this list. Pinball wizard alone doesn't qualify this album as one of the greats.

Ctrl by SZA
May 21 2026

She says pussy a LOT

NEU! 75 by Neu!
May 22 2026

Yikes

What's Going On by Marvin Gaye
May 23 2026

More religious than I would've thought, but hell, its good music

Green by R.E.M.
May 24 2026

Meh af

Kenya by Machito
May 25 2026
Tusk by Fleetwood Mac
May 26 2026

It's classic fleetwood Mac, cant complain really

Garbage by Garbage
May 27 2026

Not bad I guess. Wouldn't queue for them

Hot Fuss by The Killers
May 28 2026

This was the most formative album of my childhood. It's perfect, no notes.

Tapestry by Carole King
May 30 2026

Pretty good actually

Oxygène by Jean-Michel Jarre
May 31 2026

This is terrible. Where's the progression?

Lost Souls by Doves
Jun 01 2026

Doves have better albums

Definitely Maybe by Oasis
Jun 02 2026

Damn what an album. They aren't the best for nothing

Pretzel Logic by Steely Dan
Jun 03 2026

Gentle enough, nothing exceptional

Scream, Dracula, Scream by Rocket From The Crypt
Jun 12 2026

Brass was interesting, but the rest of the album isn't.

Tank Battles by Dagmar Krause
Jun 14 2026

Isn't in Spotify, so too bad

Exodus by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Jun 15 2026

Very chill, I like.

Clube Da Esquina by Milton Nascimento
Jun 18 2026

All over the place but kinda fun
