Marquee Moon
Television
Very good. Different style of punk than I'm used to. More meandering and romantic rather than rebellious. No anthems but that's to its benefit. Enjoyable overall.

Sound Affects
The Jam
Very much an opposite style of punk from the last album I reviewed (Marquee Moon) but looks be more complex musically and takes from other genres well. That's Entertainment was a hit for a reason. Enjoyable, but something just felt a bit missing for me that's stopping it from getting a higher mark.

Fleetwood Mac
Decade defining album. Every different flavour of 70s pop is in here and they still do it better than everyone else.

Kid A
Radiohead
Sorry, just don't get Radiohead. No matter how many times I try.
I appreciate the departure from typical rock, and if you enjoy music as experimental art this is your bag. I can give it points for that. However an album still needs to be pleasing listening and barring one song (Treefingers) Kid A is just not that.

Pretzel Logic

Perfectly fine. Not the biggest fan of the blend of jazz and rock they were trying as I don't think it suits the vocals, but the album wasn't displeasing to listen to

Band On The Run
Paul McCartney and Wings
For post beatles it's very good, not one skip on there.
However it's not 'All Things Must Pass' so it only gets a 4.

Superb. Express Yourself is an amazing track. The first two songs announce an entire genre into the mainstream perfectly. Some lyrics haven't aged very well, but the significance of this album can't be denied.

Quite bland unfortunately, but enough there to keep you interested. Should be considered the bar to clear for 3 out of 5 albums.
Regardless, if I have to listen to any more brit pop and post punk I'll fucking top myself

Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs
Derek & The Dominos
Better than Eric Clapton's solo stuff. Layla is such a corker it elevates the mediocre tracks in here by association. Would be a 4, but shame he's a cunt

Another dud. Tired tracks with nothing close to anything as iconic or entertaining as their soundalike The Rolling Stones. How Mick Jagger can think this is better than Sticky Fingers is truly beyond me.

The sound feels like punk and pop fighting, but also kinda great. In my uneducated head it feels like a precursor to contemporary alt rock.
