Grace
Jeff Buckley
This album is iconic. The songwriting is top notch, the way he sings is full of emotion, the songs are great with some massive tracks, even the filler songs play their part and the way it flows from one song to the next is lovely. Even the album cover is special. When it comes to giving a 5, it’s down to personal preference and this album makes me feel a special kind of way. It’s a shame we didn’t get more of Jeff Buckley but what we got from this one album is more than most artists will ever contribute in their whole career.

Gave this 2 listens and enjoyed it, but didn’t really sit with me.
After looking up online how much of a classic this was, I decided to go back and give it one more go with more attentive ears. I’m glad I did because it is fantastic.
The songwriting is great and so is the singing. Lovely album and can see why its got such a good reputation. 1968?!?!

A masterclass in sampling.
In a time before the digital age, you can only imagine how on earth the Dust Brothers put together this album. It’s jam-packed with creativity, flowing from one song to the next, which the Beastie Boys pair with excellently.
Then just as you think they can’t fit anymore into a densely filled album, they drop a 12-minute song, split into 9 sections that have 24 samples spread across it.
HOW DID THEY MAKE THIS?!

Very very nice background noise.
A lot more uplifting than I anticipated which was nice. Can’t say it really stuck with me emotionally, but it was very pleasant to have on as I was doing some writing.
Some great songs in here though.

Decided to be more lenient with what I consider a 5.
When it comes to the Beatles, you might assume they’re overrated. That is until you listen to their catalogue. Beyond the big hits, they have so many beautiful songs and this album is full of them.
It's is so soothing that takes you to different places looking at love, regret and living in a fucking yellow submarine.
For an album to come out in 1966 and still sound this good speaks volumes about what a generational band they were. I absolutely loved this album.

Murder Ballads

Big fan of this. It was a lot cheerier than The Boatman’s Call, probably because he was still knobbing PJ Harvey at this time.
Always liked it when an album sticks to one clear narrative, on this case MURDER! Can see this influencing Hellfire by Black Midi.
Songwriting is so good and Nicky C’s creepy little voice hooks you in. Don’t think I’ve ever heard someone say ‘Motherfucker’ in a better way.

AND YOU MAY FIND YOURSELF, REVIEWING A TALKING HEADS ALBUM ON A RANDOMLY GENERATED WEBSITE. AND YOU MAY FIND YOURSELF GIVING THAT AKBUM A 4.5. AND YOU MAY ASK YOURSELF, HOW DID I GET HERE?!
I love albums that sound completely out of time from when they were released and this is one of them. 1980? these crafty bastards.
I found it a lot more groovy than first anticipated and of course ‘Once in a Lifetime’ is a big banger - even if I do prefer the Kermit the Frog version.
It’s a classic. Enough talking and give me head!

Fear Of A Black Planet
Public Enemy
There’s a reason this era of hip-hop is called ‘the golden age’ when you had groups like PE putting out albums like this.
They took the samples and intensity of It Takes a Nation Of Millions to Hold Us Back’ and came back with a more focused and sharp record.
It’s just a great listen from front to back, Chuck D has a great presence, alongside Flava Flav and Terminator X who once again delivers colourful and crazy beats (remember this was done before digital tech)
The message was relevant then and it’s just as relevant. FIGHT THE POWER
