Tellin’ Stories
The Charlatans
I was a big fan of Britpop at the time and used to listen to their previous album a lot. Didn't know this one that well, however. Like all scenes, not everything from it stands the test of time.
This album was pleasant enough, a couple of decent tunes but not sure what it's done to earn it's place on this list.

I love Fela Kuti. I don't know this album as well as some of the others, so I was surprised this one is on the list (others to come I assume). I also love Ginger Baker's drums, so it was a treat to be reminded of this gem.

Blimey, that was hard work.
Amazing voice and all, but I was glad when that was done. That sort of overblown, melodramatic nonsense leaves me cold.

A bit of a mixed bag, this one. The high energy, funky tracks like Maybe Your Baby and Superstition (obvs!) are peerless. The slow, sentimental (You are the Sunshine..) just don't do it for me.

This is so beige I forgot I was listening to it.
How is this in any sort of 'top' list? If you took all the albums ever released and sorted them by any criteria you can possibly think of, this album will miraculously always be exactly in the middle.

I don't think I'd ever listened to this album in it's entirety before. For one of the best selling albums of all time there's an awful lot of filler.
It hasn't aged well, but then I never liked Jackson to begin with either.
And finally, how has he escaped getting a (thoroughly deserved) cancelling??

I only knew their big hit, despite this being my era. Started off thinking this was better than I was expecting but the album is too long and I was willing it to end eventually. Too flabby without strong enough songs to get away with that.

I'd never even heard of this album before today. I understand the criticism of cultural appropriation, and that makes this album tricky. Having said that, it has some bangers on it and I'll be listening to this more.
