A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector

All Ratings

She's So Unusual

Cyndi Lauper

4/5

(What's The Story) Morning Glory

Oasis

3/5

Different Class

Pulp

3/5

Fleet Foxes

2/5

I feel like I should like Fleet Foxes, lots of crossover with bands I do like, and yet somehow I've never been able to get on with their songs 😵‍💫

Goo

Sonic Youth

2/5

Didn't love it!

One Nation Under A Groove

Funkadelic

4/5

My first introduction to funk! Loved it :-)

Too Rye Ay

Dexys Midnight Runners

3/5

It turns out there's more to this band than Come on Eileen. But also quite a lot of repetitive filler in there.

Everything Must Go

Manic Street Preachers

3/5

Good angst levels. Enjoyable.

Arise

Sepultura

2/5

Can appreciate it is a good metal album and the angry adolescent that still lives inside me had an alright time, but this just isn't the type of music I enjoy listening to anymore.

Shaka Zulu

Ladysmith Black Mambazo

5/5

Pure gold! This is the reason to have something like 1001 albums. Loved every minute and probably would not have found without this site!

Billion Dollar Babies

Alice Cooper

4/5

Let It Bleed

The Rolling Stones

3/5

Pretty good. Had never given much time to the rolling stones before this, but I enjoyed listening to this. Especially the grimy lyrics.

Here, My Dear

Marvin Gaye

3/5

Mixed feelings on this one. Made for pretty good background music though.

Calenture

The Triffids

2/5

Wasn't hard to listen to, but not really anything special either. Started off with what felt a bit like a Christian rock anthem, and then it was less engaging thereafter

Adele

4/5

Didn't think I was a huge Adele fan, but that voice is so powerful!

There's A Riot Goin' On

Sly & The Family Stone

4/5

Funk has been the highlight of this album generator so far

Slippery When Wet

Bon Jovi

5/5

Absolute sing-a-long classic rock

The Atomic Mr Basie

Count Basie & His Orchestra

2/5

I wanted to like this, but I just don't think jazzy big band music is the one for me 😱

A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector

Various Artists

1/5

Yeuk! Christmas! Make it stop! D:

Tommy

The Who

5/5

Love this story!

Fire Of Love

The Gun Club

1/5

Just bad.

Music For The Jilted Generation

The Prodigy

3/5

Better than expected. Not really my genre, but some good high energy tracks in there that anyone can enjoy.

Revolver

Beatles

4/5

All good, and some really excellent tracks.

The La's

2/5

Britpoppy? Wasn't a huge fan.

Skylarking

XTC

3/5

Really struggled to decide which way to rate this album. Some really interesting and creative sounds, definitely unique but at the same time it felt a bit 2-dimensional and not something I'm in a huge rush to listen to again.

Black Holes and Revelations

Muse

3/5

Catchy big music that's easy to enjoy. Lacking a bit in lyrical depth and maybe suffers a bit from overplaying but still decent. 3.5

Play

Moby

3/5

Porcelain is such a great track will always enjoy listening to it! Not so taken with the rest of the album.

Fuzzy

Grant Lee Buffalo

3/5

This was alright. Inoffensive but nothing that really caught my attention. Not biggest fan of the voice but grew on me over the album.

Aftermath

The Rolling Stones

3/5

Decent songs, some gritty lyrics. Have always preferred the Beatles, sorry D:

Mr. Tambourine Man

The Byrds

4/5

I enjoyed this, a lot of the tracks are derivative though.

Nebraska

Bruce Springsteen

5/5

Sombre, gritty Springsteen. Really enjoy this album. Atlantic City is a favourite.
