Led Zeppelin IV
Led Zeppelin
15/16 year old me (1975/76), this must have been the first Led Zep album I listened to with friends of the same ilk. Tastes change over the years and I moved away from this genre. It was good to listen to the full album again and give it the time it deserves to listen to completely back to back.
Favourite tracks: The Battle of Evermore. Misty Mountain Hop. When the Levee Breaks.
Prefer side 2.
This deserves to go in.

At San Quentin
Johnny Cash
Playing in prisons feels innovative and creative so hats off for this.
Not a Johnny Cash fan, not a country and western fan, not a live album fan. Listened to the whole album to give it a chance. Mercifully it was just 30 minutes.
Its a no from me.

I've never really listened to Portsihead before, now I know why.
Can't say I found this one overly enjoyable. None of the tracks jumped out for me.

Nah... all noise. Some things are timeless, this is plain dated.

Okay as background music I guess, whilst getting ready for the day. And not too loud. Preferably on mute....

His voice grates on me.
Listened to first disc, couldn't face the second one.

Paul Simon
Paul Simon
From the limp half baked attempt at reggae on the starting track, Paul Simon tries to give a wordy sophistication that fails the longer it goes on. As for 'me and Julio', mediocre tune to mysterious words, what was he thinking, trying to be a second hand Bob Dylan, pathetic. Desperately trying to prove he is more than just half a famous duo, this sounds uninspired and toe curling embarrassing.
Like a book that promises intrigue and delivers endless filler.
If you have this on vinyl kindly scratch so that no one is subjected to this mess.
As for the picture on the album... ugg, just burn it. Should have been number 1002 out of 1001 albums.
