Frank

Amy Winehouse

3/5

Smooth, sexy, enticing even when not the most identifiable wine house songs

Abattoir Blues / The Lyre of Orpheus

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

3/5

Mellow, sad, soothing.

Peter Gabriel

4/5

Melodic, sad, catchy. Peter Gabriel reminds me of my childhood as my dad would always play it. This is very nostalgic for me!

Bridge Over Troubled Water

Simon & Garfunkel

5/5

Love. Soothing, lyrically interesting. Enjoyed the use of stereo

Homework

Daft Punk

2/5

I genuinely think this album might have made me go mad.

Go Girl Crazy

The Dictators

3/5

Fun, energetic.

When I Was Born For The 7th Time

Cornershop

1/5

It’s been a really weird listen, at time I had to check that another album wasn’t playing. There doesn’t seem to be one cohesive sound, it oscillates from English, to another language to musical interludes. I have enjoyed the south East Asian influence. Truely weird.

To Pimp A Butterfly

Kendrick Lamar

5/5

I’ve never listened to more than one Kendrick song at a time. I now understand the hype. This would be best listened to on vinyl as you get to experience the seamlessness of one track into the next. Truely moving.

Shleep

Robert Wyatt

2/5

Thanks for the Sunday scaries.

The Scream

Siouxsie And The Banshees

Young Americans

David Bowie

5/5

Really enjoyed this listen, never really thought of myself as a Bowie fan, but this has proved different.

Exile On Main Street

The Rolling Stones

3/5

I enjoyed this as background music, all kind of sounded the same, nothing stood out but I enjoyed the overall energy

Songs The Lord Taught Us

The Cramps

2/5

Feels like something that would be on in the background of the diner scene in pulp fiction.

Porcupine

Echo And The Bunnymen

2/5

Wasn’t for me. Just blah

Harvest

Neil Young

5/5

I really enjoyed this, I had always been resistant to Neil young just because I felt it was for old people. This was fantastic.

Imagine

John Lennon

3/5

Easy to listen to, obviously the eponymous imagine is on this, which is nice.

Never Mind The Bollocks, Here’s The Sex Pistols

Sex Pistols

3/5

Intersting

The Yes Album

Yes

3/5

I quite enjoyed this. I especially liked the use of stereo in perpetual change, it made for a more dynamic and interesting song.

Sheer Heart Attack

Queen

5/5

Absolutely adored the playfulness of the album. It had influences of pink floyd for me. They can do no wrong.

Pet Sounds

The Beach Boys

4/5

Playful and fun. Would definitely listen to on a summer day. Bliss

Truth And Soul

Fishbone

1/5

Really nothing for me here

Pretenders

3/5

I enjoyed this! It was fun and boppy.

Aja

Steely Dan

3/5

Groovy and chill. Happy to have on in the background

Green River

Creedence Clearwater Revival

3/5

The Gershwin Songbook

Ella Fitzgerald

3/5

Ok, so, I will be honest, this was on in the background whilst doing work. I really went through most emotions, enjoyment, initially to the first disc and a half. Then apathy for the next hour, to finally not being able to wait until it was over. I think overall it was nice, but I couldn’t imagine just listening to this without doing anything else. Torture.

The Stone Roses

3/5

I surprisingly really enjoyed the second half of this album, it was enticing and upbeat.

Konnichiwa

Skepta

4/5

Grime is my guilty pleasure. I really enjoyed this, the use of samples were really fun. Will listen again.

Elvis Is Back

Elvis Presley

4/5

Upbeat, fun and catchy. Whilst I don’t love Elvis, it’s hard to not like the artist

Buena Vista Social Club
