Favourite tracks: Let's Make This Precious, Plan B Album didn't seem to gel or synchronise as well. Did not really get a consistent theme, vision, emotion etc.

The White Album

Beatles

3/5

Decent album, with a few good bops. Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da, Martha My Dear, I'm So Tired, Why Don't We Do It In the Road? all solid tracks. Didn't make it all the way through disc 2. Favourites: Back in the U.S.S.R, While My Guitar Gently Weeps, Happiness is a Warm Gun.

She's So Unusual

Cyndi Lauper

4/5

Very 80s, very disco, sounds very Prince. Big fan. Favourite tracks: Time After Time, She Bop, I'll Kiss You, Yeah Yeah

Rust Never Sleeps

Neil Young & Crazy Horse

3/5

Beautiful guitar chords. Start of the album is so slow and bleak. Album really picks up at the halfway mark. Favourite tracks: Powderfinger, Welfare Mothers, Sedan Delivery, Hey Hey My My (Into the Black). Verdict: Decent

Songs For Swingin' Lovers!

Frank Sinatra

4/5

Just classic Sinatra really. Lovely brass runs with muted trumpets, dreamy vocals, gentle swing rhythm section. Favourite tracks: It Happened in Monterey, Too Marvelous For Words, You're Getting To Be A Habit With Me ... honestly it's all just quite good and solid.

Joan Armatrading

5/5

Honestly so peaceful, feels like Sade and Eric Clapton had a baby it would be Joan Armatrading - love it.

NEU! 75

Neu!

3/5

Favourite tracks: ISI, Hero, E-Musik Kind of indifferent about this one. Had good range, and instrumentals are great. But probably won't come back to it.

Bridge Over Troubled Water

Simon & Garfunkel

4/5

Overall Thoughts: Average start, but picked up. Big tracks, chill vibes. Favourite tracks: Cecilia, The Boxer, Why Don't You Write Me, Bye Bye Love

Tusk

Fleetwood Mac

3/5

Paul Simon

4/5

Strong, very relaxing and calming.

Casanova

The Divine Comedy

2/5

Did not enjoy. Thematically had lots of potential. But execution is poor, and not enjoyable sonically.

The Wall

Pink Floyd

5/5

Disintegration

The Cure

2/5

Not enjoyable. Sonically feels like a bad versino of Radiohead or Fontaines.

Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs

Derek & The Dominos

5/5

Flawless

KIWANUKA

Michael Kiwanuka

2/5

An amalgam of Little Simz-esque production, with just some regular vocals. Few engaging tracks, but was just bored. Tracks became stale, needed more flair. Favourite tracks: Piano Joint (This Kind of Love), Hero, Hard To Say Goodbye,

Traffic

2/5

Favourite tracks: Pearly Queen (guitar licks), Who Knows What Tomorrow May Bring (keys are wicked), Feelin' Alright. So variable, some good tracks, some big misses.

Franz Ferdinand

2/5

Mediocre. Uninterested

Trans Europe Express

Kraftwerk

1/5

Odelay

Beck

1/5

Some decent tunes. But awfully inconsistent, and really just unenjoyable.

Melodrama

Lorde

2/5

Melancholy, has nothing on Pure Heroine.

American Idiot

Green Day

3/5

Solid. Dependable, consistent enough.
