Popular Reviews

Parklife by Blur

Started very well, but deteriorated as the album went on.

All Ratings (51)

Graceland by Paul Simon
Aug 30 2024

Album a bit all over the place. Couple of decent tracks, and 'You can call me Al' is obviously a banger.

Buena Vista Social Club by Buena Vista Social Club
Aug 31 2024

Good gentle background music. Nothing particularly noteworthy, but pleasant.

Coat Of Many Colors by Dolly Parton
Sep 02 2024

Entirely underwhelming throughout. Would never play again, though nothing too offensive.

Diamond Life by Sade
Sep 03 2024

Enjoyable album as background during dinner. Would revisit in future!

Feast of Wire by Calexico
Sep 04 2024

Quite an enjoyable listen, and a band I wasn't previously familiar with. A little esoteric at times though.

Night Life by Ray Price
Sep 05 2024

Nothing offensive, but nothing noteworthy.

The Sensual World by Kate Bush
Sep 06 2024

A decent album, just lacking any real banger tracks.

Hot Rats by Frank Zappa
Sep 07 2024

Enjoyed this album, though it drifted a bit at times. Will check out more Frank Zappa now though!

Bert Jansch by Bert Jansch
Sep 08 2024

Pleased to have been introduced to this album! Some lovely tracks and really impressive guitar playing

Blood, Sweat & Tears by Blood, Sweat & Tears
Sep 09 2024

Album's a bit all over the place, and feels almost novelty at times. But there's some good tracks in amongst it!

The Yes Album by Yes
Sep 10 2024

Really good album with some iconic tunes. Play it loud!

Eliminator by ZZ Top
Sep 14 2024

Fun enough to tap your foot along to, but gets a bit repetitive by the end.

The Cars by The Cars
Sep 16 2024

Really good album, and had sounds spanning from early 70s well into the 80s... But no track was quite good enough to push it up to a 4...

Machine Head by Deep Purple
Sep 17 2024

Decent album with a couple of absolute bangers... Legendary guitarist with an iconic riff gets this my first 4 stars!

My Generation by The Who
Sep 18 2024

Not the sound I expect from the Who. Album is ok, but prefer their later stuff.

Pacific Ocean Blue by Dennis Wilson
Sep 19 2024

I had really low expectations, thinking it would be like late beach boys. But how wrong I was! Really enjoyable, if slightly eclectic, album! Only managed disc one so far though.

A Girl Called Dusty by Dusty Springfield
Sep 22 2024

An enjoyable album, with a few belters in there. Too long though, with a bit of filler.

OK Computer by Radiohead
Sep 23 2024

Truly iconic album.

Parklife by Blur
Sep 24 2024

Started very well, but deteriorated as the album went on.

Heroes to Zeros by The Beta Band
Sep 26 2024

Middle of the road, just don't really get why it's in this list.

Hot Shots II by The Beta Band
Sep 27 2024

Very enjoyable album, can see why they toured with Radiohead

Green by R.E.M.
Sep 28 2024

Mostly forgettable, but nothing too bad

California by American Music Club
Sep 29 2024

Decent album that improved as it went on.

Very by Pet Shop Boys
Sep 30 2024

Strong album, but no real banger... And I can't stand the last track!

Disraeli Gears by Cream
Oct 01 2024

Really cracking album, just skip the last couple of tracks...

American Beauty by Grateful Dead
Oct 03 2024

Just a bit bland. Would never choose to put it on.

Sincere by Mj Cole
Oct 04 2024

Not a great album, but a few decent tracks dotted about.

Master Of Puppets by Metallica
Oct 05 2024

Not Metallica's best album by far, but some good tracks.

Is This It by The Strokes
Oct 06 2024

Very nearly a 5. Every track is a banger, just a little repetitive.

Everything Must Go by Manic Street Preachers
Oct 07 2024

Some really enjoyable tracks, but fades as it goes on.

Power In Numbers by Jurassic 5
Oct 09 2024

Not bad, considering I don't like hip hop

Vento De Maio by Elis Regina
Oct 10 2024

A fun introduction to the style!

Can't Buy A Thrill by Steely Dan
Oct 11 2024

Very solid album, and a new one to me! First few tracks really good.

Elvis Presley by Elvis Presley
Oct 12 2024

It's Elvis, it's alright.

Ray Of Light by Madonna
Oct 13 2024

This isn't good. Fairly drab pop strewn with unnecessary EDM and eastern twang.

The Slim Shady LP by Eminem
Oct 14 2024

Didn't enjoy this, and some of it is rather egregious.

Channel Orange by Frank Ocean
Oct 15 2024

Had high hopes for this, but is actually quite hard to find much positive to say about it. Annoying vocal, obnoxious lyrics, maybe a couple of backing tracks have a little interest. Most disappointed I've been at an album so far.

At Newport 1960 by Muddy Waters
Oct 16 2024

Nice blues, would listen again

Jazz Samba by Stan Getz
Oct 18 2024

Great chill-out music. Legendary saxophonist!
