In one ear and straight out the other, yawn.

I've already forgotten this, yawn.

Like the other MJ albums, this one is chock full of classic singles and completely forgettable album tracks, but the singles are so good it makes the whole thing incredible.

As if I didn't think Radiohead were bad enough before I heard this, Jesus Christ, what is this shit!?

Great album, honestly don't think there's a bad song on, I don't love all of them, but the overall quality is undeniable, with Jack White's particular sensibilities easily heard all the way through.

Good, easy to listen to album, but not much in it to make me want to come back to it again. It's interesting to hear how this album would go on to influence other post-punk music.

An exquisite listening experience from start to finish, grand & bombastic, soft & sweet, an essential listening experience for everyone, both Queen and music at its peak.

I went into this expecting to not enjoy it, I was aware of this album's reputation and thought it was going to be too retro and naff to enjoy. However I'm very pleased to say that it is good, yes, it's over the top and ridiculous, but in a very fun and theatrical way, when you take it for what it is, it's an hour of camp nonsense.

It's good classic rock, a bit self indulgent at times, but still a band in their prime absolutely flying. Putting three encores at the end of this version of the album is an odd choice, especially when they're all the same song, but the core of the album is still good.

Fine, just fine.

The classic tracks on this are what raise it from being a fairly dull affair to the iconic work that it is.

It might be a classic, but it's a slog to listen to, won't be revisiting this one.

With editing this could be a pretty good album, but it's long and self-indulgent as it stands, so fails to live up to its full promise.

Really odd album, quite boring for large parts, a few glimmers of quality but they don't last long, would very happily never listen to this again.

An album of two halves, side one is back to back classics, some of the best songs written in rock music. Side two is objectively quite boring, both generally and in comparison to side one. Turn of after Limelight and it's one of the best EPs ever made!

If you don't like jazz rock, I don't see this changing your mind.

Went in one ear and out the other, fine but forgettable.

Not my cup of tea, the singles are good but the rest left no impression.

Fine, but not particularly memorable.

Pretty good, nothing particularly ground breaking, but overall very enjoyable

Better than I expected, Mark E Smith was the boss of post-punk, I need to listen to more Fall for sure.

If the track list was pared down it would be a lot more Killer, but the Filler drags it down.

Very plinky plonky and twee, if you like that vibe then happy days, but it's not for me.

Had never heard k.d. lang before this, and this album hasn't put me off but also hasn't inspired me to check put more, not my thing.

It's early Queen, you know it's amazing.

I like Nirvana best when they're loud, intense and raw, this album doesn't really tick those boxes so I can't say it's my favourite Nirvana album. Good but lacking.

Big beats are the best, get high all the time.

Prog rock? More like slog rock, because it was a slog getting through this snoozefest.

I hate yacht Rock. I hate Steely Dan. I hate the music of Steely Dan's individual members. I hate most popular music from the USA in the 80s. I hate this album.

Going from Illmatic to this in 24 hours is quite the contrast. Illmatic is an undisputed classic, fresh and ground breaking. This is not Illmatic. It's overall fine, but by the end I was bored and waiting for it to be over, not one I will return to.

I like techno, but I don't think ambient techno is quite my thing, dull and overly repetitive in many places.

Maybe one day I will like Talking Heads, but today is not that day.

Loud, raw, unapologetic, this is brilliant

Fine for a live album, sounds good but the tracks are pretty samey. Motorhead overcome this by being an inherently great band though.

Can't believe I'd not listened to this before, good Mersey beat inspired Britpop, shame they never made another album.

Lots of gems, but so much drawn out, long-winded waffle that doesn't feel like it's elaborating a point, more belabouring it.

If this wasn't a Stevie Wonder album, it would be pretty sub-par, but he brings a quality that can't be denied, so it gains an additional star.

I preferred it when they were making plans for Nigel

Great early punk, rowdy but melodic enough to be catchy, need to listen to more of The Clash

Good, easy to listen to reggae album, will definitely check out more Peter Tosh, especially in summer!

Great album, honestly don't think there's a bad song on, I don't love all of them, but the overall quality is undeniable, with Jack White's particular sensibilities easily heard all the way through.

We all know Thriller is a great Album, and MJ is at his peak here, his voice is absolutely the best thing about it. Frankly the worst thing about the album is the instrumentation, a lot of it has aged poorly, cheesy 80s synths abound. Other than The Girl is Mine (hang your head in shame, Sir Paul) all the songs are classics, however pop is not my preferred genre, so it doesn't get a 5.

Nice, nothing particularly amazing or ground breaking, just nice.

Not my favourite Rufus Wainwright album, but still very.

Singles are bangers, album tracks are kinda mid.

Not heard much Sonic Youth before, and this has really impressed me. I really can't believe that it's 35 years old this year, it could have dropped yesterday. A cohesive soundscape from beginning to end, although it does feel a bit repetitive at times.

Wow, this is a Southern-fried banger, each song feels fresh and groovy, and it's packed with classics, really enjoyable.

Fine, but not very memorable.

It's good, but I feel like a lot if the hype around it is of the "you had to be there" variety, because I personally don't get it.

Fine, but not my thing.

Dull, run of the mill new-wave, yawn.

Can't go wrong with some classic CCR

It's a'ight

Good singles, boring album tracks, never again.

As if I didn't think Radiohead were bad enough before I heard this, Jesus Christ, what is this shit!?

Perfectly fine in a "mid" kind of way.

Absolute classic, banger after banger.

Amazingly fresh sounding, has aged very well, really enjoyable listen.

Very good.

Is it influential? Sure. Is everything that it influenced way more interesting? Absolutely.

Great album, balances sounds grand and intimate, retro and new, joyful.and melancholy, all at the same time.

Not my usual thing, but pretty good.

Dull by Depeche Mode standards

Definitely suffers from being overly long, a good album, but definitely not Blur's best.

A solid 2/5, but the singles, which are undeniably well crafted and catchy, drag it up a star. The album tracks are dull and forgettable though.

These tracks sound better live than in the studio, so Made in Japan has to get a higher rating than this.

Solid proto-metal blue rock, interesting from an academic point of view, but little other reason.

Probably an album and artist that takes a few listens to to "get", but a good first experience, one to check out again.

I enjoyed the bits with the church organ, even more and it would have been amazing.

Pretty good my Aerosmith's standards.

Really good, a band clearly well into their creative flow.

A flawless album to satisfy your Retro Christmas needs. Never mind who produced it, every performer on here gives it their all and you can absolutely tell. A must play for the Christmas period.

Great singer, fantastic songwriter, shame the album doesn't finish on the same strong foot that it starts, but I need to check more Tracy C in the future.

Perfectly pleasant Latin groove rock, not my thing, but very nice.

First Bob Marley album I've ever listened to, and it's obviously really good, his status as a legend is as clear as can be.

Not my favourite Springsteen album, all a bit slow and plodding. Still plenty of the Boss' swagger and emotion, but I'd rather listen to other BS albums.

Dull, ponderous Alt Rock that Screaming Trees, Morphine etc did better.

I've not listened to a Billy Joel album before, and wow this guy can write a hell of a song, what a great Album!

It's very 60s, it's very Brazilian, and it's not for me.

A modern classic, flawless from start to finish, and an album I would recommend everyone listen to at least once.

Soso proto-punk/psych-rock with one of the whiniest singers I've ever heard. Roadrunner is good, the rest, totally forgettable, and Girlfriend is one of the worst songs I've ever heard.

Soso indie Britpop, absolutely fine but nothing in it to draw me back.

Interesting but didn't really stick in my mind.

It was going so well until Thom Yorke showed up...

My first Jam album, unbelievably solid and consistent, no weak links and so many classic hits.

Some PiL albums are good. This is not one of them.

She's got a great voice, but the song writing is immature at this point and her lyrics even more so

There's a lot of folk in this folk rock, I like it.

I've heard this album enough times to have made my mind up about it a long time ago: a stone cold classic, a band at their peak. RIP Cliff Burton

Great album that is let down by how self indulgently long it is. With a good prune it is an easy 5, but the padding let's it down.

Nothing particularly interesting or noteworthy, 100% fine.

My first Kings of Leon album. It's not bad, not particularly memorable, but they do their thing well.

I really don't care for Neil Young's reedy voice or plinky plonky music, so this album couldn't do anything for me.

Singles are great, albums tracks are fairly generic disco.

This is better than On The Beach, but Neil Young still sucks.

Some good Springsteen cuts here, but not his favourite work of mine.

Heroes is a great song, the rest went in one ear then out the other.

I am fond of Pet Shop Boys, but not really this album and it's sound.

Great album, but you forget how long some of the songs are, especially the ones that shouldn't be that long.

What a boring album, you can hear the lack of passion echoing around it.

Very nice songs

Forgettable, no idea how this is on this list.

Man, I wish I could suck myself off the way Radiohead do after making the MOST boring music that gets constant universal critical acclaim.

Great song writing, but the rambling, jam-band improv sessions take a lot of wind out of the sails and make this album struggle to shine.

Fine, nice songs performed well, but nothing to come back for.

A fine album that only has a few standout moments, showing a clear reason why Anthrax are definitely 4th amongst the Big Four of Thrash.

I've already forgotten this, yawn.

Starts out a bit weak, and the dread set in, but is it goes on it gets a lot better, ended up really enjoying this one.

Fine but forgettable

Apart from the two well-known singles, it's middle 60s pop, nothing to be excited by.

She's a great singer, but the voice I know and love is slightly wasted on these slow, crooning ballads.

George Harrison was the best Beatle and this is an incredible album, frankly, I wish it was longer.

Probably the weirdest thing I've had yet on this list; funky, alt-hip-hop rock which is so INCREDIBLY 2000s. I didn't love it, but i was definitely along for the ride.

Crushingly boring, why oh why?

Holy pretentious nonsense, Superman!

I'm sure it's great if you know the context these songs play in during the movie, but for the uninitiated, it's not very engaging.

Good jazz!

Miles, I love you, but this is a hard listen.

If I knew about this album when I was 15, I would have been even more of an emo nightmare than I was.

Who cares?

I was Jamming to it, good stuff.

Not bad, some of the better New Wave from this list so far

Good album, would be great with less of the talking between tracks, I get why it's there, but it's not for me, and it could lose at least 4/5 tracks to be a bit more focused, but Lauryn is such a talented artist.

Raw and unpolished, but remarkably creative for someone who produced when he was 17-19 years old. Not for everyone, and not totally for me, but Dizzee was pushing boundaries and shaping culture here. Could do with dropping a few tracks to make it a bit tighter, but like it or not, it's a British classic.

Like the other MJ albums, this one is chock full of classic singles and completely forgettable album tracks, but the singles are so good it makes the whole thing incredible.

Not bad, Peter Gabriel is clearly a quality song writer but overall this album doesn't do much for me.

Fine, twee and quiet, inoffensive and forgettable.

I prefer early Dylan.

People just did fat rails of blow then recorded absolute dog shit back in the 80s, didn't they?

Imagine is one of the worst, most saccharine and tone deaf songs ever written, the rest is mid Beatles B-side rejects.

Not bad, but a bit forgettable.

Some classic tracks, a lot of forgettable proto-prog.

Cripplingly boring, just why?

A fair bit of filler, but overall enjoyable blues rock.

D'ya like jazz? Why yes, yes I do, and I really liked this album.

Undeniably a great Album, but it doesn't elicit a particularly strong emotional response or a desire to listen again, so I can't give it a 5.

Starts out well, cabaret pop, very atmospheric, but eventually vanishes up its own rear end.

60s psych rock, nothing breathtaking, just fine.

Jazzy.

Fine, forgettable.

It's a classic for a reason.

This is a good album, everyone here is a hater. Ambient, low-fi folk is my thing, so I liked this album. It could lose a few tracks to be tighter, but overall I enjoyed it.

Better than I thought it would be, Tom Waits lite, not bad.

I like it, very rocky dance, need to listen to more LCDS.

Krautrock, more like... noperock

80s nonsense, you know how it be.

Sound like bad Mario Kart demos, first flop jazz album, what a shame.

These dudes were diabolically horny.

Great musicianship, but completely unfocused.

Surprisingly more interesting than I was expecting, I knew Sleep on the Left Side and Brimful of Asha (I'm British, I have to) and wasn't expecting to like the whole album as a result, I thought they'd be a bit of a novelty group, but it's surprisingly deep, layered and unique, I'll have to check more Cornershop out for sure.

Kendrick Lamar is easily the best rapper of his generation, but enjoyment of music is so directly impacted by how you connect with it, and this white guy from the suburbs of the UK doesn't really relate to Kung-Fu Kenny, so I'm left a little cold by the objectively great album.

Better than I thought it would be, the first half is the vastly superior side.

Perfectly palatable but fairly dull Britpop

It's Tom Waits, so you know it's good. That being said, this album is clearly a point of transition for his sound, not the piano man style of the 70s but not the peak of the "dark cabaret" style that he really perfected from Rain Dogs onward, so I feel it's amongst his weaker outputs.

Is it a surprise that this is a great album? A true innovator who changed guitar music forever, it doesn't get much better than this.

A very difficult album to wrap your head around. Musically genius, lyrically unfocused, clearly the product of a conflicted mind. Could be much more than it is, but what it is is still very good.

A classic of Metallica's newer sound and a critically important album to Mr in terms of how it shaped my taste in music.

Pleasant DJ sounds, but nothing Earth shattering.

In one ear and straight out the other, yawn.

Goth-tacular.

Really good, not my usual thing, I enjoyed it.

Good stuff, plenty of the signs they would eventually become, I enjoyed this one a lot.

As with all Belle & Sebastian, it's twee and inoffensive, and not much more can be said beyond that.

Does what it says in the tin, it's cool as fuck.

Ambitious, classic, the work of a genius.

Cool, very very cool, but maybe a bit too cool, perhaps even a little boring...

Unfocused nonsense that went on way WAY WAAAAY too long.

I feel like this album could have been a lot more interesting than it is. Some stand out moments but a lot of generic 80s meh.

Starts out really strong, but tails off by the end. One to listen to again to get a second opinion.

Great album full of grunge classics, Chris Cornell has a voice that could shatter granite. It could drop 3/4 tracks to be a tighter listen, but there are no bad songs.

Quiet funk doesn't do it for me, not my thing.

Imagine releasing Black Sabbath and then nine months later releasing Paranoid, 70s Sabbath were on some different shit.

Starts strong, loses the plot by the end.

This one didn't really leave an impression, I'm sure it was good, just not very memorable.

Listening to this I thought it was an easy 4 from me, but as I kept thinking, I really have no good reason to not make it a 5. It's cheesy, but is it trying to be anything but? Epic in the true meaning of the word with soaring vocals and tigh harmonies, catchy riffs and and snappy, pacey groove, it really is a 5.

Forgettable jam band nonsense

If God was real he would have sent the fatal heart attack to Serge Gainsourg before he ever wrote this shit. The music underlying this French ode to noncery in no ways makes up for or redeems the subject matter.

It definitely yees my haw, but is it definitely something I need to hear before I die?

I'm sure this album was groundbreaking 44 years ago, but now...

If you think of this album as a parody or send up of over the top, bragadocious rap it becomes very funny and enjoyable.

Do yourself a favour and listen to a version on YouTube with a correct bass mix, it sounds great. A difficult album to rate amongst the Metallica discography, the last of the pure Thrash before the 90s came and hit hard, and losing Cliff is very obvious here. Dark, brooding and full of grief, it's great music but not an album I can come back to regularly.

I quite like Morrisey's voice, but the music on each track here is so identical to everything else that it really detracts from the overall quality.

A classic, anthemic banger after banger, they caught lightning in a bottle with this one.

I never expected this album to be on this list, what a mood, what an atmosphere, love it.

Unfocused, but clearly made by talented musicians.

It's fine, but this being a Bowie album doesn't make it fundamentally amazingly.

Dull, uninspiring, boring.

This isn't Saturday Night Fever, what the fuck?

I thought MIA was supposed to be good and interesting...

Morrisey might suck, but damn the Smiths were great.

Pretty good, early glimmers of the band they'd become, but little currently to differentiate them from other Brit-blues bands of the time.

Brutal, bombastic, unrelenting and so influential, a rough & raw classic.

Definitely a lot better than anything Velvet Underground did, wonder why that is?

I've nothing more to say than has already been said, and incredible masterpiece of an album.

Imagine if the Mars Volta were boring, then you'd get this as a result.

If I was off my tits in a dark room in the 90s, this might be incredible, but I'm not, so it isn't.

Meh, not massively interesting.

You could say it's CRIMINAL that this album is so short!

Maybe if this was two albums it wouldn't have been such an atrocious slog.

Great album, nothing else needs to be said.

The Beastie Boys SUCK and that's a FACT, I think they are fucking WHACK! Seriously though, there has never been a hip-hop act with less swag than these guys, Gen X can keep them.

Not bad of this is your thing.

How do I love Graceland but have never heard this album, I've been a fool. Paul's the GOAT.

What's not to enjoy about a bit of classic rock & roll?

Another album of angsty, 90s alternative, if you've heard one, etc etc.

Old man sings the hits.

Not bad for a Neil Young album, but please, no more.

When it's good, it's great, but when it's long, it's too long.

I'm not listening to this, life is too short for double live albums of artists you don't care for.

I loved this album when I came out and listened to it over and over, but it's been about a decade since my last listen. Undeniably ambitious but unsatisfying, somehow feels like it runs longer than its hour duration. I wanted this relisten to be more enjoyable than it was.

I like jazz, and this is great jazz.

It rocks, nothing else to say.

Interesting interpretation of Metallica's discography, unfortunately the production/mixing feels lacking, it doesn't punch like Metallica usually does.

Bit of fun 80s nonsense, singles are the highlights.

An absolute vibe.

Solid album, can't really fault it.

It's the perfect album by the best jazz musician to ever do it.

The best AC/DC album of the Bon Scott era for sure.

Not bad, but this kind of music leaves me cold.

Pretty good, Mr Costello has a unique sound that I quite enjoy, I should try more of his music.

Cute, but not very interesting.

Odd album with a jumble of musical styles, but very compelling to listen to, one to listen to a few times to fully appreciate everything that is going on.

There are better Smiths albums, despite how full of classics that this album is, but it's still brilliant.

Probably one of the best pop-punk albums ever made, and one of Green Day's best too.

Cheesy 80s pop, we all know the score.

Starts solid, loses interest towards the end, but when it's good, it's absolutely great.

Completely unremarkable. Come on Scotland, start getting better albums on this list!

Not bad, not incredible, just not bad.

I'd somehow never listened to this album from beginning to end, it has quality deeper than the singles, overall really good, not flawless or totally engaging throughout, but definitely good.

Very psychedelic, very tropical, but not really my thing.

What could be interesting lyrics are totally usurped by bad singing and terrible instrumentation.

Crazy not to get bored of an album this long, but it was a blast from start to finish!

One of the better live albums I've been given so far. B.B. King is obviously great, it's not a mind blowing album, but I enjoyed listening to it.

Not my favourite Incubus album, but it's a good listen.

Really good, but not Led Zeppelin's best.

No amount of pills could make this album an interesting experience.

It feels like this album doesn't manage to get into the gear it should do, it builds to nothing, ultimately very boring.

Just like the other xx album on this list, it is oh so very cool.

Incredibly boring and repetitive.

Would be good if it was exactly half as long as it is, 8 tracks and done, but it just goes on and on and on.

There's no album like this anywhere else, raw & brutal, just a bit too long, and Canyon Jam is pure headache fuel.

Amazingly raucous for the most part, or heartfelt and emotional in its quieter moments. A little on the long side, but it romps along and definitely keeps interest up the whole time.

Not bad, but I definitely prefer The Jam.

Pretty good, one to try again.

Intriguing album, love the narrative of it.

Really enjoyed it, Björk is always a good time.

Soulful, smooth and sweet, but not all that interesting.

Otis sings the classics, what's not to like?

Unique vibe, very enjoyable.

Not for me, not a bad album, just not my thing.

A bit long, but it doesn't feel like it drags in. Enjoyable, standard Public Enemy fare.

Normal 60s white man blues, sounds a bit like what later Beefheart would sound like, but not enough to be anything other than average.

Didn't really do much for me.

Perfectly acceptable, if a bit long.

You don't need my input to tell you this is a 5 star album, surely?

Didn't finish this one, not a classic from Massive Attack, very disappointing.

Like the album's namesake, it's a thundering triumph.

Odd, sprawling album that does a bit of everything. The quality of the song writing and performances elevates this to a quality that many other bands couldn't achieve.

Can't really say I'm a Bowie fan, and I'm definitely not a late-Bowie fan.

Great moments throughout, but not totally my thing. I appreciate it as being great, but it definitely doesn't resonate fully.

Standard funk fare, I remain to still be fully convinced of the true depths of funk.

Good, but long and ultimately repetitive.

It's so fucking long, any quality that this album possesses is drowned out by a quantity of crap, there's literally a side called chaff for Christ's sake!

Nick Drake is the GOAT singer/song writer. This isn't his best album, he had some developing to do, but it's a great indicator of things to come.

Stone cold classic. Not perfect, but damn good.

Pretty good for what it is, but not really my thing.

Interesting album, strange album. Might listen to it again, might not.

Your grandparents will love it, I merely appreciate it as a historical artifact.

In amongst the flotsam produced by a band beginning to crash onto the rocks and break apart, a truly stellar album could be found, if the crap was removed and the gems truly allowed to shine for what they are, a shame that it's not as good as it could or should be.

The lyrics are hilariously stupid at point, but Dr Dre's production is absolutely insane, it's amazing how good this album sounds nearly 30 years after release, and it's a perfect relic of a specific time and place that no longer exists.

Standard raw affair from the Stooges, rattles along but ultimately doesn't leave much of an impression.

Great, iconic singles from this, but the album tracks have a stifling quality to them which wasn't much fun.

Get me a rum punch NOW!

Good music, but so far from "my thing" I feel it's impossible to give it a proper rating on its merits.

Started off well but by the halfway mark I was ready for it to be over, by the end it was torture. Even Groove is in the Heart couldn't redeem it.

Actually listened to this one twice to see if I had missed something the first time. It's clearly objectively good and well written, but for some reason it left me cold, even Money for Nothing. I definitely think the vocal performance is a weak point, I struggled to connect with the lyrics.

It's called Suicide because that's what I'd rather do than listen to this ever again. At least it was short.

Fine, exactly what you'd expect from an Elvis Costello album, nothing mind blowing, just fine.

Please, no more Steely Dan, I can't take it...

Better than I thought it would be, but still too long and too 70s.

Blue Suede Shoes is the only good track on this thing. It's only Elvis' first album, so it can be forgiven for not being Peak Elvis, but when you consider everything Elvis would become, its obvious weaknesses are very apparent: flat singing, poor instrumentation and a general lack of personality.

Not as interesting as it could have been I feel.

Singles are good, album tracks fairly forgettable, solid but not life changing.

Vibes are immaculate, but unfortunately it gets repetitive quickly.

A bunch of standards performed to an incredibly high quality, can't ask for much better.

I really wanted to like this a lot more than I did. Definitely preferred the Sugercubes' album, but I possibly need to try this again, but on first listen it's pretty repetitive and fairly grating with it.

Feels like the musical equivalent of white bread and room temperature tap water.

Better than I thought it would be, but very safe for what it is.

Very grateful that my formative years had much better rock music than this.

If this experience is teaching me anything, it is that the Beatles didn't make a good album until 1965.

Peak Dylan

Great stuff, good songs, perfect arrangements, Sarah Vaughan's voice is flawless, and the fun little "bloopers" throughout really tie it up with a bow.

Another 45 minutes of Radiohead sniffing their own farts.

Dear 1001 albums editor/s, you don't have to add every hour long rock album from the 60s onto the list, you do know that?

Definitely an album that you need to be in the correct mood for, one to relisten to in autumn.

I've listened to this so many times, I know it intimately, just like I know it's a 5 all day long.

Auditory insanity, it's pretty much impossible to describe this album in any succinct way. Definitely one to listen to a few more times to try and properly absorb the lyrics.

I think I could have gone my life without hearing this.

A handful of stand out tracks, but it becomes very repetitive very quickly.

Probably the most Who album the Who made. Good but not incredible, probably great if you like this kind of thing.

Blissed out to the max, but a bit repetitive.

Odd album, not really for me.

80s tabular, some hits, some misses.

What a voice!

A bit Oasis, a bit Stone Roses, not as good as either and way too long, but it passed the time enjoyably.

It least it was over quickly.

If this fairly rough album can launch a band into super stardom, you too can achieve anything!

Listened to as much of this as a trip to run errands would allow, ending it on track 7 of 14 and that will be enough, as I'm sure there are absolutely new depths to discover from this steaming turd of an album. Kid Rock is a moron, and a very boring moron at that. As least some of the music caused a little bob of the head, hence why it's 2 stars instead of a much deserved 1.

Who do Wilco actually make music for? This is so boring and unengaging that I just can't understand why anyone was compelled to write and record it.

Not bad, as with all soundtracks on this list it probably would help if I knew the film it was scoring.

A perfect pop record, and a truly unique experience in music.

Nothing special, sorry Clapton fans.

Not bad, I've never heard any other Common songs to balance this album against his other work, but this is good, and you can hear Kanye's influence all over, not just in his performances. I enjoyed it, even if it's not 100% my thing.

Good if you like moody tunes about drugs and cheating. Also been so overplayed in the UK that I'm likely immune to any charms it has.

An album if Queen/Sparks rejected b-sides.

Oh brother, these guys STINK! But seriously, TV.O.T.R are so boring, please stop making me listen to them.

Another mid Beatles album, at least it's not as cloying as their very early stuff.

Dirty old man, the soundtrack.

Not bad, cool to hear how later bands took their influences from records like this.

Country Tom Waits

The third Elvis Costello album in had in short succession, and the worst one yet, so please, no more.

Very nice, nepo babies never sounded so good.

Great singles elevate this album to greatness.

It's fine music, but I absolutely cannot bring myself to care about it at all.

Kinda just happened.

Very 90s, very alright.

Funktacular

Dime a dozen 80s radio rock

Not what I thought it would be.

Relaxed fare, pretty good.

The album where Iron Maiden BECAME Iron Maiden. Bruce Dickinson gives a masterclass in metal singing and Steve Harris flexes his songwriting and bass playing muscles to the max. A metal classic that is required listening for the genre.

Not for me at all, I didn't think the Happy Mondays were this boring?

All the smooth, sexy bits of Prince without any of the fun, exciting stuff that balances him out.

An album always in the background of my adolescence, being able to dedicate some time to really take it in now I'm beyond that age, and it's such a solid project, somehow raw and polished, juvenile and mature, 2000s Arctic Monkeys were something else.

Degenerates into a puddles of shit, no thank you.

If the Beastie Boys were from California instead of New York they would be Cypress Hill, and as such, are they are equally lame.

Pretty fly, for an Offspring album.

Americans, skip this, this is for UK people only. Skepta is probably the king of Grime, not necessarily the best Grime artist to ever do it be definitely the most successful and the face of the genre. The album is really solid, not all tracks are amazing, but it's a cornerstone for British music after the 20th century.

Can't believe I used to live this album so much as a mopey teenager, what miserable crap.

I just ain't in to David Bowie like that.

I liked it very Mitchell

Some good ideas that are ultimately lost in a vast ocean of bullshit.

Led Zeppelin baaayyybeeee!

I liked it, don't know what you all dislike so much about it.

Very 80s, very much not for me.

Blinky blonky 80s nonsense.

Good music but my god it gets repetitive.

Classic singles, some of the album tracks drag it down though.

Didn't leave an impression of any kind.

A great voice that absolutely does not move me in any way. Doesn't help that being British, we get bombarded with her whenever she releases new music, I've heard every single from this album way more than I would ever want to.

Didn't finish this one, boring proto-grunge.

Classic Bob, does exactly what you want it to do.

Good, straightforward bluesy rock. Shame they're only know for a cover song, their other tracks are great.

I do like this album, I'm a Pantera fan, but it's always struck me as tricky sophomore album, despite it being far from Pantera's second release. It's good but not their best, a band still working on a new sound.

Rock jazz done the way only Zappa could do it. You'll love it or hate it, and I do rather love it.

I love Joni Mitchell.

It's the White Stripes so you know it's good, but it still lacks the magic that later WS albums would grab onto, but a great album by all metrics

If I was in my 80s I'm sure this would slap, but I'm not, so it doesn't.

Funky but a bit self indulgent.

Banger of an album that is unfortunately brought down by a few of the tracks in the second half of the album. Stradlin, McKagan & Adler are one of the best rhythm sections rock music ever saw.

I like folk music, I like Paul Simon, but I didn't really like this.

A weird mix of seemingly traditional music and the most 90s beats you could imagine. Bit too long, but no one can complain it's generic.

Not bad.

You know, with Jerry Lee Lewis, the more I learn about that guy, the more I don't care for him.

Well that was definitely an album of music.

Imagine if reggae was boring, it would sound exactly like this.

Good fun but repetitive.

Jazz folk. I like jazz. I like folk. But this combo was OK at best.

Good, but not SoaD's best work.
