The Velvet Underground
4/5
Great album. Feels contemporary in so many ways.
The Offspring
3/5
A few good singles - but repetitive in the extreme.
The Notorious B.I.G.
2/5
Feels so dated now. Misogyny was more on trend back then…
The Go-Go's
3/5
On the whole it’s forgettable songs. That said, it’s dated well.
3.25/5
Bruce Springsteen
4/5
Harry Nilsson
3/5
Can describe it in two words (not perjoritively!) - easy listening!
3.75/5
Circle Jerks
3/5
Actually enjoyed this more than I expected when it started. Fun and vulgar, funny in places. Full of fury, and mainly, signifying nothing.
Radiohead
4/5
The Specials
3/5
Metallica
3/5
Really enjoyed listening to this whilst in a run. Not listened to it for years and years - was better than I remembered.
Thelonious Monk
5/5
Loved this.
Charles Mingus
4/5
I’m no jazz expert, but enjoyed this a lot.
Arcade Fire
4/5
Elvis Costello
3/5
3.5/5
Dr. Dre
3/5
Of the rap I’ve had so far, I musically enjoyed this one the most - although still have the same issues with the misogyny and immaturity.
Drive-By Truckers
3/5
I found this to be really forgettable - the music played but none of it had any impact - positive, negative or otherwise! It's not bad - just, well, meh!
Creedence Clearwater Revival
4/5
Much better than I was expecting.
Arcade Fire
5/5
One of my favourite albums of all time - vivid memories of listening to it for the first time on cd.
Electric Light Orchestra
4/5
Dexys Midnight Runners
3/5
Peter Gabriel
4/5
Really solid album - with some great songs.
Moby
3/5
Bill Evans Trio
3/5
Didn't impact on me in the way that Monk and Mingus did, but an enjoyable listed and music that I imagine needs to be heard and seen live to be properly appreciated. 3.75/5
The Auteurs
3/5
Beck
3/5
Dire Straits
5/5
Steve Earle
2/5
Not for me. Not a fan of his voice and country is not my favourite style.
The Magnetic Fields
3/5
Some real quality in there, but some dross as well. The edited version would be 👌🏻
Beatles
5/5
Joan Armatrading
5/5
Loved this! What a voice! Beautiful writing. I’m never sure why JA wasn’t a bigger star than she is?
Le Tigre
3/5
Interesting. Some songs grated a little. 3.25
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
3/5
Seemed to be a bit obsessed with sexual violence!
The Police
3/5
More musically interesting than lyrically.
Muddy Waters
4/5
Great listen. I do find blues a little repetitive sometimes, but there was an infectious joy about this, probably as it’s live, that overrode that. 3.75
Johnny Cash
4/5
Includes one of the great covers of all time in ‘Hurt’. Cash’s voice is something else - it feels like his entire life is contained in each syllable.
Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
4/5
Really loved this. Listened whilst walking the dog. Some brilliant singles, but more, just a beautiful album.
Belle & Sebastian
4/5
I love this. Brilliantly observed songs, fantastic lyrics and musically bounces along.
The Blue Nile
2/5
Didn’t really do much for me to be honest.
Fairport Convention
4/5
Really enjoyed the fusion of classic folk songs with the prog rock/folk vibes.
Beastie Boys
3/5
Kanye West
3/5
Opened strong, lost its way a little in the middle.
Mike Oldfield
2/5
King Crimson
5/5
A lot of love for this album.
The Temptations
4/5
Stevie Wonder
5/5
Love everything about this. Just a joyous example of musical genius.
Dire Straits
5/5
Actually enjoyed this even more than ‘Brothers in Arms’ - so only one score really!
U2
4/5
I’ve never been a U2 fan, but this album will make me listen to them a little more.
The Yardbirds
3/5
Magazine
3/5
Adele
5/5
When you write and sound like this at 21, you know that there is a special talent there. Adele has an incredible voice and ability to convey emotion. This is, without doubt, a modern classic.
Prince
