Bought 1987 what the f*CK when it originally came out. Have loved the Justified Ancients of Mu Mu ever since. Great exploitation method.

The Doors
4/5
Classic is the word for this album. From the hypnotic riff of the changeling to the guitar play on been down so long the slow build up of all the songs is mesmerising. Cars hissing. L.a. woman. Crawling King snake and of course light my fire give mr Morrison a chance to use his voice to full effect. Mr Mojo do your stuff.
Frank Zappa
4/5
Classic album. Jazz fusion not to everyone's taste but it certainly grows on you
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
4/5
Not the easiest nick cave album but a very enjoyable one has aspects of earlier albums all rolled onto 2 discs. Some Birthday Party tunes. Takes a lot of the best elements of nicks writing. A grower of a piece of work.
Snoop Dogg
3/5
My first Snoop album ever.....seemed like one continuous tube to me with some radio advertising thrown in. Take out the cussing and it's an instrumental album
Elvis Presley
4/5
Nice early album. Some hits some ballads some rock n roll most famous I think for the fact the clash stole the cover colouring for London's calling
Joni Mitchell
4/5

Classic break up the band album. Been played to death over the years still sounds best MOR.
Blur

LTJ Bukem
4/5
Three and a half hours of some of the best jungle and dnb I've heard for a long time.

Jimi Hendrix
4/5
Classic 3rd album.
KISS
4/5

Keith Jarrett
4/5
First Keith album. Jazzy piano. Not my thing but gave it a listen
James Brown
4/5
Not a lot here that I've heard before but James brown is James brown iconic sound. Very short for a live event. It is 60 years old

First time listener nice tightish sound. A good few classic songs. Worth a listen.
Magazine
4/5
Howard's debut album still has a catch today. Some classic punk anthems here

Bon Scott's last studio album with AC/DC saw them lay down some convincing blues tracks with some memorable riffs. Still sounds good today
Hole
2/5
Would make a really good instrumental album. Courtney's screech get to you after a couple of tracks
U2
4/5

Public Image Ltd.
4/5
Not the best PIL album to introduce you to the band but in its day it was a bit of a game changer
Boards of Canada
4/5
My favourite BoC album. Heard it when it first came out and adored the sound. Listened to a few other albums but this is still my lazy Sunday morning go to.
Lorde
2/5
Sounds like so many of today's albums. Autotuned. Machine driven beat. Nothing stands out here. Would be hard to pick Lorde out of a cast of other singers.
Shuggie Otis
3/5
Had only ever heard the name before this post. Some nice sounds on this album by a talented multi instrumentalist. Will have a look at his back catalogue

Fishbone
3/5
Enjoyed this more than I wanted too once I got past the extreme/ in living colour soundalike
Bob Dylan
5/5
Best early Dylan album by a long way in my opinion 7 of the 9 tracks are classics that 90% of music lovers would be able to name. Desolation row is without doubt one of the best songs ever written
Stan Getz
