Van Halen

5/5

Absolute Classic. Eddie revolutionised guitar all over again, and we can’t forget the under-appreciated backing vocals of Michael Anthony.

Duck Stab/Buster & Glen

The Residents

1/5

Very avant-garde, feeling of unease throughout, heavy use of chromatic and dissonant notes. Not an easy listen but would set the vibe in a certain type of bar. BACH IS DEAD *goose noises*

Rust Never Sleeps

Neil Young & Crazy Horse

4/5

The contrast between the sparkly 12 string and harmonica of side A and the fuzzy electric guitar on side B lends to a dynamic journey though the eyes of someone who saw the evolution of rock and roll.

Tank Battles

Dagmar Krause

3/5

Interesting mix of more classical/folk compositions with some contemporary instrumentation included.

Lady In Satin

Billie Holiday

4/5

Classic. Perfect for relaxing with a drink.

The White Album

Beatles

5/5

Masterpiece.

Van Halen

5/5

Absolute Classic. Eddie revolutionised guitar all over again, and we can’t forget the under-appreciated backing vocals of Michael Anthony.

2112

Rush

5/5

Fantastic Odyssey of prog rock, incredibly full and thoughtful instrumentation. Probably my favourite vocal performance from Geddy Lee.

Cloud Nine

The Temptations

4/5

The combination of elements from traditional soul and psychedelic rock make for an album that sounds very stereotypically 1960s. Who doesn’t love the combination of fuzzy organ and guitar?

Too Rye Ay

Dexys Midnight Runners

3/5

A mix of Pop, Celtic, and Folk inspiration that delivers some great tracks and some underwhelming ones. Overall a mood lifter.

Disintegration

The Cure

4/5

A intense album creating a beautiful and broad soundscape, I visualise the sound of the album as a triangle, starting at the wide base and concluding at the pointed top.

Frank

Amy Winehouse

4/5

My Aim Is True

Elvis Costello

4/5

A strong debut, this album sounds interesting due to the strong punk and rock influences in the songwriting that somewhat clash with the more country style of the instrumentals.

The Rolling Stones

4/5

At face value sounds like a standard 60s rock album but has the foundations of The Rolling Stones signature sound

Who's Next

The Who

5/5

Fantastically complete album from screaming iconic rock to slower cruising tracks, with some of The Who’s best songs.

The Clash

4/5

By perhaps the most iconic punk band, The Clash spreads a message that is a true today as it was in 1977

Sticky Fingers

The Rolling Stones
