Went into it expecting dad rock, could not have been more wrong.

A Love Supreme

John Coltrane

5/5

American Idiot

Green Day

4/5

Huge nostalgia trip. It was fun to revisit an album I bought 20 years ago and gain a new appreciation for it. There were lots of great moments on it that I'd forgotten. I'm not surprised they turned it into a musical.

Raw Power

The Stooges

5/5

I listened to the first track of the Bowie version and found the constant fading in and out super distracting. Then I listened to the Iggy Mix, and understood why this album is called RAW POWER.

Gunfighter Ballads And Trail Songs

Marty Robbins

3/5

Green Onions

Booker T. & The MG's

2/5

After the first song, everything sounds the same. The first listen I completely blanked out the last half, and the second time I was begging for it to end so I could play something with more variety. Green Onions is a great song but it's not a great album.

Abraxas

Santana

Definitely Maybe

Oasis

2/5

It's definitely maybe a 2 from me.

The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars

David Bowie

5/5

Different Class

Pulp

3/5

Some classics, some new favourites, some forgettable tracks. Will come back to it in the year 2000.

Histoire De Melody Nelson

Serge Gainsbourg

3/5

I thought it was interesting and worth the listen. It clearly had a big influence on musicians that came later. Unfortunately, I found Jane Birkin's vocals too distracting to regularly revisit it. MELODY.... NELSON.

Dusty In Memphis

Dusty Springfield

3/5

In A Silent Way

Miles Davis

4/5

I liked it, but I thought it was a little disjointed in the middle. I listened to it a couple of times and felt there weren't any standout moments but it was consistently enjoyable and interesting.

Let's Stay Together

Al Green

2/5

It's another Green Onions. Let's Stay Together is a great song but it's not a great album.

Kenza

Khaled

3/5

I think I tend to rate things too high when they're in genres I'm unfamiliar with. I read a couple of the other reviews and one referred to it as "standard issue for all cab drivers" which is hilarious and very accurate. Very enjoyable listen but not something that I'd regularly come back to.

Black Monk Time

The Monks

3/5

I could only listen to two tracks because the rest wasn't on Spotify ☹️

Ill Communication

Beastie Boys

4/5

Expected 90s rap bangers and it delivered and then some in the most unexpected way. But it was obviously going to be great because it came out when I was born.

The Atomic Mr Basie

Count Basie & His Orchestra

4/5

The Pleasure Principle

Gary Numan

3/5

It's fun to listen to these albums and discover songs that were sampled by songs I know well. M.E. and Cars are great.

Tusk

Fleetwood Mac

3/5

All Directions

The Temptations
