Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd

Pretty good. Nothing jaw dropping, but I will listen again at some point.

Lost In The Dream by The War On Drugs
Oct 23 2023

Fine. Not something I'd seek out. Not something I'd skip past. Disclaimer: I was doing chores whilst listening.

The Gershwin Songbook by Ella Fitzgerald
Oct 25 2023

Warm and cozy. I should revisit it on a snuggly weekend.

Metallica by Metallica
Oct 26 2023

Enter Sandman is a brilliant album opener. I was starting to get a bit worn out by Holier Than Thou. The Unforgiven drew me back in. The rest of the album was good. Not much to say about it.

Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd
Oct 27 2023

Pretty good. Nothing jaw dropping, but I will listen again at some point.

Ágætis Byrjun by Sigur Rós
Oct 28 2023

Makes me feel insignificant in a good way. No one listens to lyrics anyway, so being in a language I don't understand lets me focus more on the melody.

Bayou Country by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Oct 29 2023

No interest in this. I am definitely not in the target demographic

Lust For Life by Iggy Pop
Oct 30 2023

Quite good. I could live without it, but I wouldn't mind another listen.

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
Nov 10 2023

Like a lot of art albums, it benefits from a quiet, focussed listening. Even though I didn't do that, this is a brilliant. Not at all what I was expecting either.

Reggatta De Blanc by The Police
Nov 11 2023

Some absolute bangers. Some forgettable songs. I think their singles are a much better way to listen to The Police than any album.

Power In Numbers by Jurassic 5
Nov 12 2023

I know very little about this style of music. This album sounded fine. No strong feelings.

Tracy Chapman by Tracy Chapman
Nov 13 2023

Timeless sound. I don't know enough about the politics to comment (different country and demographic). Cohesive album.

Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Nov 14 2023

Listening to the list chronologically, I'm sure this album had some impact. I am not listening chronologically, so I do not recognise that impact. It's very much middling.

Station To Station by David Bowie
Nov 15 2023

Nothing exceptional. Nothing terrible. Very middling.

Boston by Boston
Nov 17 2023

I can't remember a single track. If it came up on shuffle, I think it would take a minute to realise that I've heard it before.

Born To Run by Bruce Springsteen
Nov 18 2023

Not brilliant. Not terrible. Pretty average.

Bad by Michael Jackson
Nov 21 2023

Som classic hits. Some tunes I've never heard before. Good all round.
