Tricky

2/5

Weird, not fond of this

Disraeli Gears

Cream

2/5

Only one ok song

Talking Heads 77

Talking Heads

2/5

Psycho killer is great, but the rest of the album doesn't reach their potential of what they will become in later albums

Moving Pictures

Rush

3/5

Tom Sawyer is classic Rush, but Rush was never my thing

Histoire De Melody Nelson

Serge Gainsbourg

1/5

There were no redeeming qualities for this album

Bookends

Simon & Garfunkel

2/5

Two big hits and a lot of mediocre filler. Also they said elephants are dumb in one of the songs which may be the stupidest thing ever.

NEU! 75

Neu!

4/5

Never heard of them, but pretty good, especially the first half. Upbeat background music for work.

No Other

Gene Clark

4/5

Wasn't bad. Pleasant.

Let It Bleed

The Rolling Stones

1/5

I don't like the Rolling Stones

Brothers In Arms

Dire Straits

4/5

Classic from my teenage years. Not as good as I remember.

Hypnotised

The Undertones

3/5

Very indicative of what the '80s would become, but not particularly memorable.

Darkdancer

Les Rythmes Digitales

3/5

Not bad. A little "too cool for school" with some of the gimmicks.

Country Life

Roxy Music

3/5

Pretty standard 70s rock

Pet Sounds

The Beach Boys

3/5

God only knows is great and the Boys excel in songs in the round. Wouldn't it be Nice is indicative of the hits they would eventually produce. But this early work album is filled with mostly forgettable or annoying songs.

So Much For The City

The Thrills

2/5

Completely forgettable

Strange Cargo III

William Orbit

Interesting pre techno. Not something I would listen to, but very cool

The Sensational Alex Harvey Band

1/5

Really bad.

Live At The Star Club, Hamburg
