Kind Of Blue by Miles Davis
Dec 02 2023

I can see why this is one of the foundational jazz albums, as someone wanting to get into jazz but not knowing where to start this was great! A really easy listen and could really pick out each individual instrument and hone in on the playing

Is This It by The Strokes
Dec 04 2023

forgot how many incredible tracks were on this record, the sounds is unmistakeable however it is a bit samey

Ellington at Newport by Duke Ellington
Dec 05 2023

this is an absolute treat. I was initially concerned at the run time but it is so worth it, it's such a rewarding listen when you get to 'Diminuendo in Blue' and you hear the crowd shift into excitement, then frenzy. The remainder of the record after the sax interlude is pure gold, with the audience willing the band on, and muffling out the organisers calls for the end of the performance. So happy to have been able to listen to this

Bayou Country by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Dec 06 2023

it's fine, has a fun sound and a few great tracks but i found myself wanting a bit of variation, Good Golly Miss Molly helped to break the album up a bit. definitely groovy but not really for me

Dec 07 2023

I just don't really get it, can see how some tracks are considered anthemic but I just found myself underwhelmed

The Rolling Stones by The Rolling Stones
Dec 08 2023

it was fine, a few great covers but overall not massively enjoyable, I expect there will be better Rolling Stones albums further in this project

Dec 09 2023

It was a fun listen, have always enjoyed Muse but stacked up against other similar artists during that period it isn't as consistent

Celebrity Skin by Hole
Dec 10 2023

Decent rock album, seems to be a theme with the 90s/00s rock I keep getting, just nothing massively interesting

Fire Of Love by The Gun Club
Dec 11 2023

Couldn't get on with this, found the vocals a bit annoying

Freak Out! by The Mothers Of Invention
Dec 15 2023
Imagine by John Lennon
Dec 17 2023
Dr. Octagonecologyst by Dr. Octagon
Dec 18 2023

amazing production and scratching let down by an inconsistent flow, the skits seemed to last a bit too long too

The Blueprint by JAY Z
Dec 19 2023

it was alright, never expected my favourite part of any album to be an Eminem verse

Damaged by Black Flag
Dec 21 2023
Tracy Chapman by Tracy Chapman
Dec 23 2023

lovely easy listening, what a voice and what beautiful guitarwork

To Pimp A Butterfly by Kendrick Lamar
Dec 25 2023

This was an easy 5/5, one of the greatest hip-hop records of all time

En-Tact by The Shamen
Dec 27 2023

can't finish it, bad

Hard Again by Muddy Waters
Dec 31 2023

i can appreciate the musicianship but sadly blues isn't really my taste

Led Zeppelin IV by Led Zeppelin
Jan 02 2024

What an incredible rock album. I was expecting just standard dad rock but I was so wrong! John Bonham is incredible.

The ArchAndroid by Janelle Monáe
Jan 04 2024

such an amazing vocal performance, the concert was pretty interesting too

Oar by Alexander 'Skip' Spence
Jan 05 2024
Parachutes by Coldplay
Jan 06 2024

it's just a gorgeous album and I won't take any slander

The Suburbs by Arcade Fire
Jan 11 2024

I hadn't listened to this all the way through before, love The Suburbs and found Ready To Start alright but never made it much further each time I tried to listen to it. This time I did listen all the way through and there are some great songs on here - Rococo, Empty Room, Wasted Hours. Just dragged on a bit for me

Pyromania by Def Leppard
Jan 19 2024

bad pop rock

Arise by Sepultura
Jan 29 2024
Fleet Foxes by Fleet Foxes
Jan 31 2024

What a luscious indie folk album, Fleet Foxes create some gorgeous music

3 + 3 by The Isley Brothers
Feb 01 2024

Such a groovy album!! Immediately recognized "That Lady" as the sample for "I" by Kendrick Lamar

Highway to Hell by AC/DC
Feb 02 2024

All songs basically the same, but all songs sound great so can't complain!

Low by David Bowie
Feb 06 2024
S&M by Metallica
Feb 07 2024
Gorillaz by Gorillaz
Feb 10 2024

Definitely feels like an album where Gorillaz are trying to find their sound, lots more rockier tracks, a few bangers but overall felt like a bit like Damon trying to shake off the Blur sound

Purple Rain by Prince
Feb 13 2024

clearly iconic, lots of bangers, but VERY 80s, so not massively my cup of tea

On The Beach by Neil Young
Feb 18 2024

how have I not listened to Neil Young sooner??

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
Feb 19 2024
Grace by Jeff Buckley
Feb 20 2024
In A Silent Way by Miles Davis
Mar 07 2024

Another great jazz record, not much variation as far as each song goes, but is a good album to just stick on to concentrate on tasks

Cut by The Slits
Mar 10 2024
