A Love Supreme

John Coltrane

2/5

The softer, slower cuts are ok. Could not get through the entire album

Parachutes

Coldplay

1/5

Wanna be Dave Matthews Band. Sound like they should be playing weekends at some local bar. Lead singer's voice is quite annoying!

Adele

3/5

Her hits are hits for a reason. Good songs. Can't be bothered with the rest

Joan Armatrading

3/5

The ArchAndroid

Janelle Monáe

1/5

The bass hits nicely, but that's all I have to say about that! TRASH

The World is a Ghetto

War

3/5

The Cisco Kid is probably a top 50 song for me. The rest of the album goes a little sideways. Seems very South American drum beat heavy, which I don't mind, but their sound just didn't hold my interest. Album art is on point. Solid 3.5⭐

Parsley, Sage, Rosemary And Thyme

Simon & Garfunkel

1/5

Shit! The last song/outro is kind of cool(thanks for the heads up J) but this is dog shit

Beyond Skin

Nitin Sawhney

1/5

Did not listen. Album cover turned me off immediately! 0⭐

Want One

Rufus Wainwright

1/5

Trash. 0⭐

Tarkus

Emerson, Lake & Palmer

1/5

0.5⭐ when the first song is 20 minutes long, with a 3 minute intro before the lyrics start, I'm not enduring the entire album. Sound like a drug era Beatles trying to produce a cinematic opera like the Who or something! Not good

Tommy

The Who

1/5

Did not listen. Not a Who fan. I like behind blue eyes and pinball wizard and that's about it 1⭐

Back At The Chicken Shack

Jimmy Smith

3/5

3.5⭐. Not bad. Good for background noise while throwing darts in the sunroom late at night

The Message

Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five

4/5

The Message was one of the first rap songs I ever heard, and it was definitely a contributing factor to me digging this new form of music back in the day! Flash is the DJ all others were measured against, and the Adventures of Flash may sound quite remedial today, but when it came out, was cutting edge (no pun intended)

Time Out

The Dave Brubeck Quartet

4/5

Take Five is in my personal Top20. I believe this album is considered by many, who have a vast wealth of musical knowledge, to be one of the best jazz records of all-time!

Tank Battles

Dagmar Krause

1/5

Did not listen. Wasn't on Spotify. Don't think you should be classified as MUST LISTEN if you're not even on any popular streaming service🙄👎 0⭐

Hypnotised

The Undertones

1/5

Late 70's British Pop, no thanks.

Iron Maiden

3/5

Feel like they were caught in between Sabbath and Metallica. I like the riffs. Real high energy, but the vocals seem a little light, compared to the heavy guitar. Never could get into them, but this album wasn't too bad.

Chirping Crickets

Buddy Holly & The Crickets

4/5

Classic 50s rock n roll. I'm old enough to have listened to enough of this. Gotta give it 4⭐ for it's genre

Hot Buttered Soul

Isaac Hayes

3/5

Not the album from him I would've selected as just listen?! Some good grooves and beats that have been sampled plenty.

Stardust

Willie Nelson

3/5

Not an awful album. Willie actually didn't do too badly on this collection of covers. Think I would've pick an album full of his original outlaw country selections if I was choosing a must listen album of Willie Nelson. Solid 3⭐

The Low End Theory

A Tribe Called Quest

4/5

Great album. ATCQ one of the pioneers that help transition hip hop into the new school era. 4.5⭐

Led Zeppelin IV

Led Zeppelin

5/5

The best Zeppelin album the isn't the BBC Sessions. 6 of the 8 songs hit! And 3 of their top 5 most listened to songs on Spotify are from this album. My first 5⭐

Tanto Tempo

Bebel Gilberto

2/5

South American lounge music isn't too bad. She has a nice voice. Not my cup of tea

Blonde On Blonde

Bob Dylan

2/5

Never could get into Dylan. Always felt he was overrated. Too folksy for me. WAAYYY to much harmonica. We get it dude, you're deft with the jaw harp!

Selling England By The Pound

Genesis

1/5

Veckatimest
