Strange Cargo III by William Orbit

Triangle by The Beau Brummels

2/5 It's not entirelly bad. But it's not good either. Something to have as background music when you want to concentrate on something else and not the music, but don't want to be in complete silence.

Ill Communication by Beastie Boys

2/5 Beastie Boys to have som good tracks, but unfortunatelly except Sabotage, they arent on this album.

The Köln Concert by Keith Jarrett

3/5 It's good. But it's too similar entire album and 1h of it does get tedious.

Seventeen Seconds by The Cure

2/5 Some odd songs on this one. Didn't really find enjoyment from listening. Can't say i have listened a lot to Cure, but i do recall them having better songs than this.

Joan Armatrading by Joan Armatrading

3/5 Nice to listen to. But nothing really memorable.

Funeral by Arcade Fire

3/5 It's ok, but nothing i would listen to normally. A bit repetitive.

You've Come a Long Way Baby by Fatboy Slim

2/5 Not as great as i remember, Except rockafeller skank, the rest of the album is abit boring.

L.A. Woman by The Doors

5/5 While not every track is good on this album. As a whole it is very enjoyable to listen to. It's like the album is slowly building up to the last track, Riders on the Storm.

Parallel Lines by Blondie

4/5 Enjoyable to listen to. Gets slightly repetitive in the middle.
