Really like , howlin' for you and tighten up. Which is no surprise because they we both realised as singles which is probably why I kind of know them. I generally like the blues sound but it's a bit to generic. The only other song that I might listen to again off the album is I'm not the one.

The Next Day
David Bowie
Looked through the tracklist like I normally do and for such a "big" artist I was expecting to know at least one of the songs on the album. I haven't heard of any of them which is a bad sign. I then noticed the album release date, newer Bowie. Oh no!!!
Not one song on here grabbed my attention.
Feel like it's only been put on here because it Bowie, it's a shame, really, because I'm sure there are some banging albums from around this time that didn't get into this list.
I would set the world on fire if I was made to listen to this again

NEU! 75
Neu!
First half of album
Starting off with a couple of instrumentals not a good idea, yeah ok the music isn't offensive but come on give me some excitement. When they did start singing in track 3 I could hardly hear what he was saying it was that quite. There was also an annoying ticking clock, I honestly thought the crocodile from Peter pan was in my living room it was that over the top.
Second half of album
A better start at least there is lyrics I can hear, even if the were not the easiest to understand. But track 4 has a weird 30 seconds at the end where I think they forgot they were still recording. The. The next track they seem to have forgotten vocals again. Luckily they remember them for the final track. I'm struggling to find a positive for this album, but I really can't.
In summary:
Track lengths are far too long. Don't see any point to this album.

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill
Lauryn Hill
I have said it before and I will say it again you don't need an into into your album, you just need to start it with a bannger.
Also why does it have speaking parts from some bloke it breaks up the music and flow. Havent got to the end of the first proper track and already pissed off with this album.
WHY IS THERE PEOPLE TALKING AT THE END OF THE TRACKS!!! It's unnecessary and a waste of everybodys time. Its like they have forgot to stop recording after each song. When Lauryn actually sings its not too bad, unfortunately that is too infrequent.
Overall I would have wanted to rate this higher, but I can't because of the constant talking at the end of tracks. The track lengths were fat to long, this album could have been done in 2/3 of the time if it wasn't for all the messing about. Won't go back and listen again. Maybe she should get some education on how to do an album properly or find a decent producer who knows when to cut off a track .

When the album first started I had to check whether or not my speakers were broken. They weren't it was just the horrific music ( if I can call it that ). I couldn't even tell what instruments they were trying to play.
I thought the worse music I ever heard was my sister playing the voiln. However, this is a billion times worse. If I could rate this with negative stars I would. Whoever put this on the list of 1001 best albums was either stoned, drunk or paid a handsome fee to sneak it in.

Channel Orange
Frank Ocean
This is a realy unconventional Album, and I really don't like it. Why are there 3 tracks under a minute? It just seems to slow the album down and make it disjointed. I could possibly forgive the first one at the start of the album, Because I can see what he's trying to do and I didn't mind the nostalgia hit. However the other two are just annoying and pointless. Then he goes and puts a track that on here that just under 10 minutes, MAKE YOUR MIND UP!!!!!. I have said it before, any song that is over 5 minutes needs to be something special and unfortunately pyramids isn't that. I would rather climb a pyramid than have to listen to that song again. Also don't like particularly hearing the N word in songs, most of the time there is no need for it. Also there are bits of talking in the songs that just don't work for me.
I feel like this has been a pretty negative review so I will end on a positive I like how the first track is called start, and the last track is called end.

I don't want to be a soldier mamma, rambles on for far to long, it actually annoyed me. Its just the same drivel for 6 minutes. I had to have a pause from the album at this point. This is probably why somebody shot him, maybe he should have become a soldier after all, then at least it would have been a fair fight.
When I came back I'm not sure if it was better or I had just calmed down a bit. Nothing really stood out from the album. And if we are being honest I'll probably only ever hear imagine again on the radio.
After this album John might have even gone below Ringo in order of my favorite beatles

At this, I was ready to drop this down to a 4
Luckily, Harrison saves the day with here comes the sun, and another couple of songs afterwords ( golden slumbers and carry that weight) pushed it back to a five star.
Over all I think the first half of the album ( apart from I want you ) does all the heavy lifting. And when I listen to it again I will be listening to tracks 1-5,7-8,11,12,14-15 the rest aren't needed.

This album was full of nostalgia. However, I just can't give it the full 5. This is probably as close as you get without getting full marks. Auf achse intro is far too long and probably what cost this album
If it had come before take me out then I might have forgiven it. Also really like
Tell her tonight and the dark of the matinée

In It For The Money
Supergrass
It was ok, but I was expecting it to be better. Also didn't have my favourite supergrass song on so that also made me sad

At San Quentin
Johnny Cash
I wanted to just listen to the music I didn't need all the bits in between, like I don't need to hear you asking if the guitar is in tune.
Music when he played was good, but you can't play the same song twice in a row and count it as two tracks on an album.
I feel like I had a visual recording of this I probably would have scored it slightly higher.

The Downward Spiral
Nine Inch Nails
All I remember from nine inch nails as a kid was a creepy video for closer. Only ever listened to a couple of their songs.
This album is all over the place, and you can tell Trent had some issues going on in his life at the time.
Not the best but was and experience

Black Holes and Revelations
Muse
Some absolute bangers on this album. Plus one of them is a fifa classic. Which is always a good sign
Honestly didn't think I really liked Muse but I'll admit I was wrong. However can't give it the full whack as a couple of the songs aren't as good as the rest of the album.
Also the music video for Knights of Cydonia is pretty cool. Think someone should make an animated version of it!

Moss Side Story
Barry Adamson
What is the point in making a film soundtrack when no film exists?
Comple and utter waste of everyone's time.
Thank the Lord ( which I don't believe exists) that we have now had both of Barry's terrible albums.

Back At The Chicken Shack
Jimmy Smith
Found it very boring, at best it's background music. Tracks are far to long and just end up repeating themselves.
Maybe adding some lyrics to it might of saved it/ made it better
I will not be going back to the chicken shack, but will still vist a fried chicken shop after beers.
The best part of this album was when it ended

Kollaps
Einstürzende Neubauten
This is actual torture material. Most people would be singing like canary by the end of the 2nd track.
Avoid this album!!!!!
Unless you need to torture somebody!!!

Black Sabbath
Black Sabbath
I have listened to Black Sabbath before, but never really listened to a full album in one sitting. When I looked at the tracks I didn't recognise any of them, but as the album went through I did start thinking, yeah I have heard this before somewhere. Solid album, will deffo go back and listen again

Stankonia
OutKast
I have said it before and I will say it again there is no need for intros for an album just get on with the music. Also why do they keep having interludes after every couple of songs. It breaks it up and it's totally unnecessary, and in all honestly annoyed me. They could have save nearly five minutes removing this shit from the album.
There are only 2 songs on here that I might go and listen to again. Miss Jackson and B.O.B. and they are probably the reason why this isn't a 1 star review.

Yankee Hotel Foxtrot
Wilco
Wilco is described as an American rock band. However, I have got more rock in my little toe. This is a slow and boring album. War on war is the first time you hear anything remotely close to rock, and that's 15 minutes into the album
It doesn't even kick off from then it goes back to being slow and dull.
Feel like this is what you would gey if you ordered a radio head album from wish
If you want an album to send you to sleep, then this is probably it. If you want to listen to good music, then look elsewhere.
Thankfully I haven't got to listen to this ever again

American Pie
Don McLean
America pie is obviously a classic. I usually moan about long songs but because it is telling a story it never gets boring. Also love Vincent.
The rest of the album is fine and pleasent to listen to but nothing else grabbed me.

Playing With Fire
Spacemen 3
The album sounds like some weird and wacky space music. Which I think I would have liked more if it was at a faster tempo. Nothing really here to shout home about. Not a real fan of the singing when they did that.

Would have rather spent the length of this album listening to sounds of the sea, then I might have actually found something worth listening too

Really good solid rock album, with some funky beats over the top. Wasn't sure whether to give this 3 or 4. Due to cult of personality I went with a 4

Pleasant listening, nothing to get too excited about , obviously my generation is a good song but on its own not enough to warrant the album a higher score.

(Pronounced 'Leh-'Nérd 'Skin-'Nérd)
Lynyrd Skynyrd
Really loved this, easily to listen to. I know I usually complain about long songs and how there is no need for them, however I'm willing to let that slide as all of their long songs have appeared on a guitar hero game and it bring back so many memories of visiting my cousins. Also I discovered another bad through a cover of simple man

The Cures sound is like the British weather, it's all gray and gloomy, however occasionally there is a ray of sunshine. Unfortunately the sunshine is not on this album. Although gloomy doesn't necessarily mean bad

Violent Femmes
When this popped up I thought to myself,I don't have bloody clue who this band is. So when I put it on I was pleasantly surprised to recognise the first song. They have got a very distinct sound, which I didn't love but didn't hate either. This album felt like a poor rollercoaster. There were ups and downs but I was glad when it was over. Will probably listen to blister in the sun again but non of the others

Time Out
The Dave Brubeck Quartet
This is the sort of album that Jamie Cullum has wet dreams over, but not for me. Like all the other jazz albums before it's boring, repetitive and goes on for far too long.
