Rio

Duran Duran

4/5

Had this on vinyl in the 80s and enjoyed listening to the deep cuts that I haven’t heard in decades

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road

Elton John

5/5

Absolute essential. I’ve never listened all the way through and am blown away by the sheer number of classics on this one album. Sheesh!

The Gershwin Songbook

Ella Fitzgerald

5/5

Gorgeous, timeless classics. I enjoyed listening through during my work day and could see myself spinning this during a dinner party but not something I would listen to except on such occasions

Document

R.E.M.

5/5

Madman Across The Water

Elton John

3/5

I am aware of the historical impact of this album for Elton John and enjoyed it as this was my first listen (other than the hit singles obviously). Not one I would add to my vinyl collection though it was interesting

Back To Black

Amy Winehouse

2/5

Her life story overwhelms her music for me and although her talent was so clear, I find listening to her difficult

The Village Green Preservation Society

The Kinks

3/5

Her life story overwhelms her music for me and although her talent was so clear, I find listening to her difficult

Strange Cargo III

William Orbit

This is really interesting and I plan to listen to this during my work day on occasion

Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs

Derek & The Dominos

4/5

Fantastic! I know many of these tracks but first time listening to this album straight through.

At Mister Kelly's

Devo

4/5

Sound of Silver

LCD Soundsystem

5/5

First full album listened though familiar with many of the tracks; great vibes!

Smile

Brian Wilson

5/5

Brian Wilson is arguably the most important U.S. pop musical artist of the rock and roll era other than perhaps Elvis Presley and I had the great fortune of seeing him perform Smile live in 2004. Just great!

Music for the Masses

Depeche Mode

5/5

So good!

MTV Unplugged In New York

Nirvana

5/5

S.F. Sorrow

The Pretty Things

3/5

This was a cool listen, totally unfamiliar with this album or this band for that matter

Sweetheart Of The Rodeo

The Byrds

1/5

Nope, not a fan of cowboy country. I was anticipating a different 1960s band called the Birds

In It For The Money

Supergrass

3/5

Fun listen!

...And Justice For All

Metallica

4/5

In ‘88 I was fully immersed in alternative so I missed this album and didn’t really discover Metallica till the black album. First time listen and man it rocks!

Honky Tonk Masquerade

Joe Ely

1/5

Not my cup of tea

Live At The Regal

B.B. King

5/5

I Should Coco
