Talk To The Wind is lovely.

Psyche fuckin delic

Brilliant. 10/10.

Good. Very good. A bit jaunty/twee for my taste.

You know what? This is really good. Definitely bedwetters, but really good

It's fine. Very good in parts. It's very white.

Long, aimless solos. Some nice patches but its not for me.

Not my thing. It's obviously beautifully crafted, but the sentiment and melodies are cloying. I enjoy one or two songs at a time, no more. Great cover.

Goes on a bit. High fretted solos. Nah.

Surprising. A brave move. Varied throughout. Jazz, hip hop. I really like this.

I had forgotten about/dismissed these guys. This is pretty good. Big singles and weird shit.

I feel like I already know 70% of this album, without having listened before. Lots of fun. Great cover art.

Not bad. A little cheesy, but not as cheesy as I feared. 80s production not helping. Some nice playing. Some over playing. Ultimately, too much American pizzazz for my subtle English tastes.

It's obviously good. Brilliant even, sometimes. But. It doesn't hold my attention. I wish it did so that I could know it's dark wonder, but I don't find it compelling.

Very good. Melodic, raw. It's grown on me over time. Almost glam rock in places. Songs are kinda sad. Thirteen is beautiful.

This is deep. Deserves close listening. Obviously, heavy subject matter. Way better production than his previous few albums. All the cheese gone. An album to keep coming back to. A dying man singing his final songs.

Title track is a stop what you're doing moment. Every time. The rest is mad, psychedelic, weird shit. A proper classic

Old school. They don't make them like this anymore. I love the production - close mic'd. Quality songs, superbly performed and arranged. Never heard this before. A pleasant surprise. Blue Skies is sublime. Great cover art.

It's good. Definitely just me, but when I listen to the specials I can see ashtrays, drizzle, violence, brown and orange clothes. It's so 70s British. It is good. Just not for me.

Modern pop that I don't completely disdain. Some nice melodies. Production bang up to date. Songwriting reminds me of Taylor Swift. I'm a 41 year old man, this is not aimed at me. I can appreciate it, but I can't love it.

Pretty badass. Lots of cool, cool stuff. Such a great band. Not their absolute best, but still.... I'd been listening to the US version for years. Not sure which one is better. Toss a coin.

Wow, Queen Jane is very out of tune. This album is a very good album. The title track is a highlight. I don't think this is Dylan's best. I prefer his later, older stuff. It's still an indisputable classic.

I have never listened to this album before. I know The Who. Who's Next is nearly perfect. This is young and raw. I didn't expect the R&B covers, not sure what I expected. It's a lot of fun. I can hear hints of sophistication in their songwriting, but they're not the finished article yet.

Okay. I have a head full of a cold, not slept well. It's possible I'm just not in the mood for this. I can't see myself returning to it. It's slightly irritating, but is obviously performed well. I'm not a fan of the vocals - too showy.

Never heard this before. Proper weird shit. Definitely helps to be in the right mood and place for this. Luckily, I am today. Really love the strangeness. Great title, great cover art. An odd surprise.

I should not like this. Nearly cheesy. A bit showbiz musical. But damn it's good. First song is so cool. Aged like a fine wine. One Of Us is undeniable. Everything is so well crafted and performed. Brilliant. Nice cover art as well.

Not my go-to Dylan, but very good. There was better to come. She Belongs To Me is a top 20 Dylan song, for me. Very good album, I just prefer the later stuff.

Very melancholy and pleasant. Think this is Kurt Cobain's Leonard Cohen afterworld. Sighing eternally. Sometimes, Suzanne is my favourite song. One long vibe. Brilliant.

Obviously this is very good. Whole lotta soul. I could put it on whenever and it would sound fine. It doesn't quite hit my personal sweetest of sweet spots, but this will do just fine.

One of my all-time favourites. The guitars are so chunky. The ballads are graceful and elegant. This might be my favourite Bowie album. Lady Grinning Soul is too good.

Really fond of this. Doesn't seem like much, but the more you listen, the more it gives. Goes well with relaxing, running, dancing, thinking, working. Bloody lovely.

Nice. Excellent playing and arrangements. I like the laid back feeling. Sultans of Swing is the obvious hit, but the rest is very consistent in tone and quality.

A good one. I didn't use to enjoy the clean production. Now, I think it gives the music a heft and weight. No filler on this, just loads of good songs. Her best album? I think so.

Not as fast and energetic as I had assumed. A little more raw than what came later. If I'm in the right mood and place this could be very good.

Very slow in parts. It's fine if boring in parts. This is my second Willie Nelson album. I preferred Stardust. This is nowhere near terrible, but I doubt I will come back to it.

I've heard these songs so many times. Still takes me by surprise that is an album, not a compilation. It must have truly blown minds in 1967. The playing is off the scale. I'm listening to the UK version. May This Be Love stands out on this listen. Truly excellent.

One of the best albums ever. Each song is better than the previous song. It's almost embarrassing how good this album gets. Golden Lady, Higher Ground, He's Misstra Know It All. It's 5 stars every day.

Some pleasant parts. My issue is that, though the harmonies are nice, there are vocal harmonies on absolutely everything. It's all very tasteful. Maybe a bit dated? The more I listen, the more I think of Andy Bernard from The Office. Constantly searching for a vocal harmony.

Really enjoyed this. Quite a trip. I like the use of instrumental layers on unexpected sounds that build on each other. This Is The Day is obviously great. Just heard it at the end of The Outrun as well. Good lyrics on here, although I would prefer the vocals to be mixed a little higher. I keep listening to the whole album. There's so much interesting stuff going on. Great cover art.

This is not my thing. Too overwrought. I will not return to it.

Love it. Mad genius. Great cover art.

Full of energy. Great performances. Incredible voice. This must have been world changingly exciting, for young people, in 1956.

I like how it flows. The rhythms, the horns, the groove. Lovely stuff. I imagine it was brilliant to watch live.

Beck is not for me. It's all too professional. Not enough HEART in the music. It just does not capture my imagination. I don't dislike it, it's fine, it just leaves me cold.

Some good, jammy bits. Nice textures. Beatle melodies. I expected it to be punkier, but that's my fault. Some duller parts, but on the whole a pleasant experience.

This surprised me. I assumed it would be uncool. It is a bit uncool, but it's got heart. He seems like a gentle guy singing gentle, melodic songs. A pleasant surprise.

Decent. Spirited performances. Better than I expected. I'm not the biggest fan of Janis Joplin. It's the blues.

The production is too shiny for my taste. The songs too poppy, too earnest. BUT. This has heart and spirit. It has ambition. Will I listen to the whole thing again? No. Do I respect it for its heart, spirit and ambition. Yes.

Fast. Furious. I can smell the tobacco and beer. Would've been great to be there.

Moody. Love her voice. Love the arrangements. Love the mood.

This had my foot tapping. The second song has no low-end. This put me off. Apart from that, I enjoyed this dark, lively album

Struggled with this one. Found it boring. Didn't like the vocals. Some of the instrumentation was interesting/pleasant, but that's not enough.

Incredible. Has grown on me over the years. I take it with me, wherever I go now. The guitar playing is sublime.

I ignored this album for too long. Absolutely fantastic. Wonderful melodies, arrangements and playing. Gently psychedelic. This one is a keeper.

I think this is the best Elvis Costello album. It rocks, it's weird, it's got good tunes. Truly, this is 4 and a half stars, its brilliant but I'm not always in the mood for Elvis Costello. Do I round up or down?
