Beggars Banquet
The Rolling StonesI was expecting the blues and country rock influences, which I liked. A very enjoyable listen

Not for me
Wonderful
Donโt take the brown acid
Shame about the dodgy lyrics
An absolute corker of an album and one Iโll go back to again and again
Not really my bag, but rather lovely nonetheless
A lovely record full of well crafted tunes. I donโt know why Iโd not heard the album before as I love the debut record. Oh and the MFSB cover on the extended version is divine
Not a patch on Moon Safari
This is one of those nose in the air, know all the words, sing-a-long record for me. Probably still the Bowie album I know and love best
Their debut is not one of my favourite Sabbath records, but there are glimpses of the magic(k) to come over the next five albums.
Iโd not heard this record is years. It was a favourite of mine when I was much younger and it still holds up pretty well. Itโs much funkier than I remember, which is no bad thing. Minus one point for all those tedious solos. Iโm looking at you Moby Dick
I enjoyed this one. I perfect time capsule of early โ80s pop. Oh and โTime After Timeโ is a masterpiece
Another classic from my youth. Minus one point for the clunky innuendo. โLet me cut your cake with my knifeโ? Oh matron!
The full version of โPapa was a rollinโ stoneโ is glorious, but the rest of the album is patchy
Awful dad rock.
More dad rock, but an extra point for Jon Lordโs moustache
A modern classic. Well crafted songs, wonderful lyrics and perfect production. The Dap-Kings take this album to the next level.
Better than I remembered
Hugely enjoyable but way too long.
Magnificent. Probably the greatest hip hop album of all time
Weird and wonderfulโฆand thankfully quite short.
Perfect
Another wonderful record.
Stone cold classic
This record hasnโt aged well. Itโs overly long and thereโs too much filler. Columbia seems to go on forever, and the second verse of Supersonic includes several of the worst rhyming couplets ever written. That said, the snarl of Rock โnโ Roll Star and the swagger of Cigarettes and Alcohol still take me back to drunken nights in Camden in the mid nineties.
Probably too eclectic to be wholly coherent album. I couldnโt get past the 80s production either. Sledgehammer is still a banger though.
