Dire Straits by Dire Straits
Mar 23 2025

Probably 3. Down on the waterline a good track on second listen

Mar 24 2025

One nation under a groove. Like the first track and the final couple however some of those middle ones were a hard old slog. Full respect for the whoever it was on lead guitar though.

Pink Moon by Nick Drake
Mar 26 2025

Nice album, will listen again

Revolver by Beatles
Mar 27 2025

Brilliant album from start to finish

25 by Adele
Mar 29 2025

Hello is a good tune, but it's not an album for a Friday night. Listened to most of it while out running too which seemed to slow time

Zombie by Fela Kuti
Apr 01 2025

Nice short album. Goid listen for a tired drive

That's The Way Of The World by Earth, Wind & Fire
Apr 05 2025

A couple of brilliant tracks that set the day up nicely, a fair bit of filler though

Paranoid by Black Sabbath
Apr 06 2025

Gave it a listen but not for me

Kilimanjaro by The Teardrop Explodes
Apr 10 2025

Some very good tunes first couple and reward. A far bit of filler though

Born To Run by Bruce Springsteen
Apr 12 2025

Fantastic album from start to finish

Fuzzy Logic by Super Furry Animals
Apr 13 2025

Quite an annoying listen. Liked one song

Pelican West by Haircut 100
Apr 17 2025

First time I'd heard of this band. A few decent songs but sounded too much like a poor man's talking heads.

Armed Forces by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Apr 20 2025
B-52's by The B-52's
Apr 21 2025

Will require a few listens. Some decent songs but a few irritating ones

Pretenders by Pretenders
Apr 22 2025

Didn't like it on the initial listen, will try to give it a second go

Low by David Bowie
Apr 23 2025

Not his best, saved by a couple if tunes

The Next Day by David Bowie
Apr 25 2025

Best Bowie album so far

Melodrama by Lorde

A couple of okay tracks, will probably give it another listen

Smash by The Offspring
May 09 2025
Blur by Blur
May 14 2025
Low-Life by New Order
May 15 2025

Couple of decent tracks but don't think I'd listen again

Leftism by Leftfield
May 21 2025

Enjoyed the beats. Not sure how many times I'll relisten to it but still some good tunes to start the day

Faith by George Michael
May 22 2025
