Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
Beatles
There’s an argument for this to be the best album of all time. Certainly not my favourite but it’s perfect pop rock. Every track is genius and together they make an unbelievable album.

Straight Outta Compton

Absolutely brilliant. 4-5 tracks on there that are timeless bangers. The rest sound a bit dated, I’d have to say but still one of the great albums and arguably the most influential in rap music.

3/5 or 7/10
Great listen first time through.
Loved how they made acoustic music sound quite punk like.
Vocals a bit prepubescent at times.
Blister in the Sun = A masterpiece song

Lovely listen for a Sunday evening. Incredible voice, and a rare treat to hear the live audience mutterings, which adds a lot to the vibe of the record.

Pantera
Not for me. I had to listen to it one track at a time. I can appreciate a song at a time to a degree, but listening to the full album is incomprehensible to me.

A big improvement on last week’s Pantera album but not something I’ll likely ever listen to again. Pleasant enough though.
