BEYONCÉ by Beyoncé
Jan 08 2024

Couldn't get past the first three tracks. Not for me. I find it difficult to believe how popular this woman is.

Vivid by Living Colour
Jan 10 2024

I've not listened to them for years, a mixture of funk, metal, , jazz, hip hop. Good stuff. I must go and find their other albums, I had a few of them years ago on cassette.

Hotel California by Eagles
Jan 12 2024

When we were much younger having gone back to somebody's house after the pub this was one of the albums we played. You hear Hotel California on the radio still but it is a long time since I listened to the whole thing. Still love it.

Live At Leeds by The Who
Jan 16 2024

The band sounds like they are all having a really good time.

Dusty In Memphis by Dusty Springfield
Jan 18 2024

Great album for late night listening with a glass of wine.

Songs Of Leonard Cohen by Leonard Cohen
Jan 19 2024

I like this album much more today than I did 20 years ago, perhaps its gloomy tones more reflect my mental attitude today. it sounds like a complete album from start to finish and not something that has been put together patchily. I think I need to listen to it again.

Pyromania by Def Leppard
Jan 22 2024

A decent rock album but I have to confess I've never been a fan of Def Leopard, listening to them again after all these years has nothing to convince me otherwise. They just seem to lack "something".

Gold by Ryan Adams
Jan 25 2024

I’ve never listened to a complete Ryan Adams album before, I knew the name but I didn’t know much about him. It’s pleasant enough, it has a similar feel to some Neil Young, Bob Dylan, Van Morrison songs, which is not a bad thing because I like all them.

Led Zeppelin III by Led Zeppelin
Jan 29 2024

One of the first cassettes that I ever bought. Still one of my favourite albums of all time. If you're looking for a good blues/rock song then Since I've Been Loving You has to be one of the best. Has to be one of the best top 10 albums of all time.

Brown Sugar by D'Angelo
Feb 01 2024

The guy can sing but R&B doesn't do much for me. It has the same sound on many of the tracks and just reminds me why I don't like R&B.

Fisherman's Blues by The Waterboys
Feb 02 2024

I used to listen to bands like The Waterboys, Silly Wizard and Planxty a lot in my youth. I'd forgotten just how much I enjoyed them all. Really enjoyed listening to them again.

Greetings From L.A. by Tim Buckley
Feb 05 2024

I know he has a cult following but I've never been a fan, it's years since I listened to him but listening to him again my opinion hasn't changed. Not for me.

Winter In America by Gil Scott-Heron
Feb 07 2024

When you listen to the lyrics nothing has really changed since the 1970s. I enjoyed listening to this again, he doesn't get the recognition that he deserves.

Songs Of Love And Hate by Leonard Cohen
Feb 08 2024

I like Leonard Cohen much more now than I did in my youth. Late night and a bottle of red wine listening for me.

Bitches Brew by Miles Davis
Feb 16 2024

Loved this, an album you have to really listen to more than once and listen to each member of the band.

Liege And Lief by Fairport Convention
Feb 19 2024

Sandy Denny had such a beautiful voice, I can still remember how shocked I was to read of her death. Such a loss. Great album, easy to listen to at any time of the day or night.

Blue by Joni Mitchell
Feb 26 2024

Such a beautiful, beautiful album. Her voice and lyrics just defined that decade. She is a timeless musician, 50 years later and she still sounds like she recorded it yesterday. Sadly I can only give it 5 stars.
