Black Sabbath
4/5
First Black Sabbath album I've ever listened to... somehow... which I guess is the whole point of this project! Banging album! More accessible than I expected. And always nice to hear a bunch of 20-somethings finding their way in music.
Jorge Ben Jor
3/5
Took me back to our honeymoon in Brazil. Enjoyable but unremarkable.
Elton John
4/5
Plenty of timeless classics and not too much filler on a double album for the ages.
Public Enemy
4/5
It's good. Really very good. Looking back it's amazing what an influence it had, and how sampled it was. Took me on a tour back through Tricky's albums too as I remembered Black Steel was actually a cover on Maxinquaye.
Kendrick Lamar
3/5
Billy Bragg
3/5
First one I've pressed play on again. Fascinating collaboration.
Destiny's Child

Waylon Jennings

27 minutes. More albums should be 27 minutes. Not my thing. But doesn't make it not good.
Aerosmith
2/5
Not aged well.
Television
4/5
Not as great as I remember. But still such an important and inventive album.
Metallica

Loved this back in the day. And it still stands up. But it is more monotonous than I recall.
Suede
5/5
Listened a week after seeing them live, and 30 years after its release. So colour me biased but yeah - 5 stars. Probably 4.5 as they've done better but still what a debut.

One of the greatest albums of all time. Pure acid house tinged joy. Andy Weatherall + Bobby Gillespie & co was a match made in heaven. Best listened to at 6am with friends after a big night out.
