Odelay by Beck
Jan 13 2024

Great album with nostalgic memories of some of these songs coming on in a club and dancing while singing along.

Toys In The Attic by Aerosmith
Jan 14 2024

A good listen. I like Aerosmith but haven't listened to this album in a long while - I have now listened to it on repeat. I forgot how good it is.

Stardust by Willie Nelson
Jan 15 2024

I've never really listened to Willie Nelson before but was pleasantly surprised by this. It helped that I was familiar with some of the songs. I like how some have been arranged.

Band On The Run by Paul McCartney and Wings
Jan 17 2024

Excellent. Some great songs here.

Play by Moby
Jan 18 2024

I remember buying this and listening to it on loop when it first came out. In fact, so many songs off this album were used in films, TV shows and adverts at the time: society was almost saturated with it!

Heroes by David Bowie
Jan 19 2024

Great songs.

Stankonia by OutKast
Jan 20 2024

I lived all the singles from this as they were released and I remember eagerly awaiting the album...it didn't disappoint! Still sounds great and as fresh as it did back then.

D by White Denim
Jan 28 2024

An interesting album. Influences from other well-known bands and artists are really prevalent. It's not a bad sound and I may look into more if their music. I had never heard of this lot before so glad I've had the experience. I'm surprised that this album is in this list: although it's good, there are many more that are better and more famous/popular.

Copper Blue by Sugar
Jan 29 2024

Very generic American soft rock. Nothing that will change the world here. It's all a bit of a dirge with no stand out tracks. I'm surprised this has made the list - there are definitely 1000s of better albums out there. This list must be compiled by a person rather than a poll.

Odessey And Oracle by The Zombies
Feb 03 2024

Pleasant but I wouldn't choose to listen to this.

Blur by Blur
Feb 04 2024

I lived this album when it first came out. Although I've listened to my favourite tracks from it since, I've not listened to the whole things through. I listened to it in its entirety several times yesterday and reminded myself what a masterpiece it is!

Live / Dead by Grateful Dead
Feb 05 2024

Just as I thought, lots of indulgent jangly guitar music. Not for me.

Electric Warrior by T. Rex
Feb 06 2024

Some good but they're all quite repetitive and all sound very similar to each other.

Ramones by Ramones
Feb 07 2024

Good. Fast and fun! Though a little samey.

White Ladder by David Gray
Feb 08 2024

I liked this when it first came out. Listening back, it's nostalgic but also there are only a few tracks I like and would choose to listen to.

Very by Pet Shop Boys
Feb 09 2024

Hidden tracks...so '90s! Never been into this lot.

The Hour Of Bewilderbeast by Badly Drawn Boy
Feb 11 2024

Great album. Good to listen to it as a whole again. Many of these songs are on my various playlists.

Is This It by The Strokes
Feb 13 2024

Excellent!

Imperial Bedroom by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Feb 14 2024

I like some Elvis Costello songs, but not really any on this album.

Kilimanjaro by The Teardrop Explodes
Feb 16 2024

Very repetitive.

Bayou Country by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Feb 17 2024

Good sounds. I like some CCR songs off other albums.

The Colour Of Spring by Talk Talk
Feb 19 2024

Alright but I wouldn't choose to listen to this again.

Cafe Bleu by The Style Council
Feb 22 2024

Mellow.

Grace by Jeff Buckley
Mar 05 2024

Some good songs. However some of this album can be a bit if a dirge.

Surf's Up by The Beach Boys
Mar 06 2024

Mellow. Lovely.

Violator by Depeche Mode
Mar 19 2024

Alright

Freak Out! by The Mothers Of Invention
Mar 24 2024

Rubbish.

Bad by Michael Jackson
Mar 29 2024

I liked this album when it came out but it sounds even better now.

Talking Book by Stevie Wonder
Mar 30 2024

Excellent songs with a fair bit of filler.

Sign 'O' The Times by Prince
Apr 02 2024

Lots of good songs but also quite a bit of filler.

Arise by Sepultura
Apr 08 2024

Not for me

Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Apr 09 2024

Alright

Dance Mania by Tito Puente
Apr 11 2024

Fun samba but a little samey.
