Harvest

Neil Young

5/5

Beautiful. Surprised I'd never listened to it before. It's expansive sonically.

Brothers In Arms

Dire Straits

3/5

The musicianship is enthralling but not quite my cup of tea so not sure I'll keep this on rotation.

#1 Record

Big Star

2/5

Underwhelming lyrically. Some nice riffs.

Stankonia

OutKast

1/5

Not my cup of tea, although found the lyrics interesting. Ms Jackson remains a top banger

Fever To Tell

Yeah Yeah Yeahs

4/5

Definitely will be coming back to listen to this again. Karen O has an incredible energy and there is some great production on this album.

Moon Safari

Air

4/5

Something magical about Air. Deserves all the stars for Sexy Boy which is near to a perfect track. Everything sounds fresh and I was glad to give this a new listen 20.

Eternally Yours

The Saints

3/5

Never heard of the Saints so happy to listen to them. Some nice tracks and lyrics and a sound I can get behind.

Here, My Dear

Marvin Gaye

3/5

Marvin is the king of his genre. Smooth listening experience if not all a bit samey.

Van Halen

2/5

Lyrics are missing as is the emotion in the delivery of the vocals Impressive solos and some nice riffs but nothing transcendal. Listening to Van Halen-inspired the Darkness is more fun Finally quite a dull listen.

Kenya

Machito

4/5

Great to have some variety in this listen. Fantastic in its genre, makes you want to dance!

Truth

Jeff Beck

3/5

Lam Toro

Baaba Maal

4/5

This was so refreshing after a slew of male guitar records from the late 20thcentury.

Peter Gabriel

3/5

Some nice touches. Like the song about the Excellent Birds. Can understand why this album lost out to Graceland by Paul Simon that year. Doesn't really stand out.

Elephant

The White Stripes

5/5

Sort of forgot how good this album is, made me wonder why I took so long to get back to it.

Beach Samba

Astrud Gilberto

4/5

Nice to have a femal artist finally. Love anything by the Gilberto family

Station To Station

David Bowie

3/5

I didn't experience the transcendental listen that others did. After hearing so much about this album I found myself underwhelmed compared to other Bowie albums, perhaps a second listen is needed.

L.A. Woman

The Doors

4/5

Don't think I've ever listened to a full Doors Album. Enjoyed this quintessential and seminal sound
