Buena Vista Social Club
Buena Vista Social Club
Really enjoyed this as a first album. Some standouts were chan chan, el cuatro de tula, pueblo nuevo, buena vista social club and la bayamesa. Loved the piano on songs like the title track and pueblo nuevo. Even though I don’t speak Spanish or listen to much Cuban music this album was very enjoyable to listen to. Not much to say other than that this album is quite good

Power In Numbers
Jurassic 5
Great album. Favourite songs were freedom, break, remember his name, thin line, sum of us, I am somebody and acetate prophets. Haven’t listened to much hip-hop in the past but this was an amazing introduction to the genre. Just got a great energy about it. Definitely a 5 star in my opinion

Axis: Bold As Love
Jimi Hendrix
Pretty good album. Favourite songs: Ain’t no telling, little wing, you got me floatin’, castles made of sand, one rainy wish. The first few songs had me concerned that this wasn’t going to be good but it eventually hit its stride. I did find the panning on some songs annoying. 4 stars

There's No Place Like America Today
Curtis Mayfield
Just alright. Songs like so in love and blue Monday people were quite good but the rest of the songs just dragged on a bit too long. Some decent rhythms but nothing too extraordinary. Would give 2.5 stars if that was an option on this website but will just stick with 2 since it’s not

Raw Power
The Stooges
It’s alright. I found the vocal delivery on most of the songs very lacklustre but the instrumentation is enough to bring it up to a 3. Favourite songs: Search and destroy, raw power.

KE*A*H** (Psalm 69)
Ministry
Favourite songs: N.W.O, scare crow, corrosion. I couldn’t really understand anything the singer was saying but the music sounded quite good on most songs. I’m just not the biggest metal fan which is why I can only rate this a 3

Eh. Not very good in my opinion. The instruments were boring and the singing was honestly terrible in my opinion. If I had to pick a standout it would probably be the eternals but that’s about it. 1 star

Alright but way too long. Every song dragged and dragged and just felt repetitive. If this was 45 mins instead of 1 hour 15 then it would be a 4 star but for now it’s a 3

Gunfighter Ballads And Trail Songs

Really enjoyable. Vocals were amazing, melodies were great, some of the songs were brilliant. But generally some songs felt too slow or like filler so I have to mark it down a point

This was alright. I don’t really like those deep vocals that you often get in metal and some of the really experimental stuff was hard to listen to but other than that is quite good. 3 stars
