Dummy by Portishead

Steve McQueen by Prefab Sprout

MTV Unplugged In New York by Nirvana

Midnight Ride by Paul Revere & The Raiders

This is an album from 1966 but it sounds like something closer to 56. not a knock its a fun little album.

All Hail the Queen by Queen Latifah

Zombie by Fela Kuti

Honestly this is good stuff, not something I would probably play again but I like it

Protection by Massive Attack

Not the album I was expecting and not as outstanding, but still good

Rumours by Fleetwood Mac

Miriam Makeba by Miriam Makeba

never heard of this before, not my usual thing but wow what a voice

Stankonia by OutKast

Tellin’ Stories by The Charlatans

The Hissing Of Summer Lawns by Joni Mitchell

Surfer Rosa by Pixies

I would have loved this album of I heard it at the time, the opening bass is sublime.

Emergency On Planet Earth by Jamiroquai

For whatever reason, I thought this was good at the time, listening to it back pretty boring

Rattus Norvegicus by The Stranglers

I dont know how to sonically place this. Its all over the map but in a cohesive way rather than a chaotic way. It feels like no genre at all, but also feels like every rock genre. I wonderful discovery

xx by The xx

A few more listens and this will probably be 4, super chill

Heroes by David Bowie

One of my all time favourite songs by my all time favourite and this only gets a three. It would be an easy 4 but it is really only half an album. I appreciate where it stands in the discography and why, but I would never just listen to side b

Behaviour by Pet Shop Boys

The Beach Boys Today! by The Beach Boys

this should probably rate higher, but other than one song I would never listen to it by choice

Hot Fuss by The Killers

week second half keeps this from hitting a 5

Superfly by Curtis Mayfield

some good songs, I might even add a few. but overall not my thing. I wouldnt choose to play the album again

Autobahn by Kraftwerk

repetitive and boring, I know that is the point but...

Ragged Glory by Neil Young & Crazy Horse

Green Onions by Booker T. & The MG's

Instrumental so just 2 stars good vibes though

Hybrid Theory by Linkin Park

couple of real bangers on this pure classics of the area

Honky Tonk Masquerade by Joe Ely

Not my taste but I think its pretty good for its genre

Stardust by Willie Nelson

mostly if not entirely covers of standards, good enough for a once through

Shaka Zulu by Ladysmith Black Mambazo

I was expecting something much more interesting than this.

Stephen Stills by Stephen Stills

I was lost by this album, stylistically varied with no real over reaching themes no great musicianship and only one stand out song. I can only assume this is on the list for some historical reason as it is not a great example of anything. just competent musicianship

Marcus Garvey by Burning Spear

I was hoping to like this a lot more, I enjoyed it but it did not wow me

Aladdin Sane by David Bowie

Really more a 4.5 let down by the cover, but a perennial favourite for the last 40 years and Bowie right smack in the middle of his most important era

Lazer Guided Melodies by Spiritualized

might be a three, but nothing really grabbed me, need to come back to this

Walking Wounded by Everything But The Girl

This is what happens when you listen to Dummy and think we can do that. But you dont have the voice, musicianship, production or understanding of what made that album great. All this album did was make me want to go and listen to Portishead and Underworld. In fairness the remix of Wrong was pretty catchy.

At Fillmore East by The Allman Brothers Band

boring not at all my style

Dusty In Memphis by Dusty Springfield

boring soft country, not even as background
