probably *the* classic of its genre and so influential

Melodrama

Lorde

there is a reason why this combination of songwriting and production has been so successful but it's not always for me

The Village Green Preservation Society

Willie Nelson

4/5

i love country and i love classics what can i say

Boston

i understand it is both technically and commercially enormously successful but there is really not a single interesting thing about this album

3 Years, 5 Months And 2 Days In The Life Of...

Arrested Development

unfortunately for me as i love this whole era of hip-hop, this has not aged anywhere near as well as some of its contemporaries

The Who

2/5

i have no idea what to make of this album

Parklife

the peaks are so high even if they can't quite sustain them for the length of the album

Jimi Hendrix

4/5

the blueprint for being a rock star

Little Earthquakes
