Grace
Jeff Buckley
Started off quite well. First two songs were interesting musically. His voice reminded me of Thom Yorke's a bit. Wasn't that keen on the middle of the album, went quite rocky. But wasn't paying 100% attention so would like to relisten. Last two songs were gorgeous, especially the last one.

First song really good. A few good songs but not enough to justify a higher score. Felt like there were a lot of filler tracks. But deffo worth a relisten.

Blonde On Blonde
Bob Dylan
All good tracks, visions of Johanna and stuck inside a mobile stand outs. Lots of bluesy ones that sounds quite similar. Could have been shorter, but enjoyed it. Not as many bangers as Desire or Blood on the tracks though.

Bit of a mix but still very enjoyable. New slaves, hold my liquor, blood on the leaves, guilt trip and ofc bound 2 the best tracks. Some shit ones though like I'm in it and I am a God. 3 and a half stars.

In A Silent Way
Miles Davis
I found it hard to get into as not much of a tune. Maybe if I listened to it more to you'd start to recognise the tune, but most of it I just found myself glazing over. Second tune was better than first.

Sail Away
Randy Newman
Stunning album. Most soulful white voice ever, and beautiful arrangements. Tracks subtle and charming. Can see why he does soundtracks. Fave tracks: Sail away, political science, burn on

Decent. Probably give it 2 and a half stars. Only a few songs captured my attention. Hate and war, police and thieves and garage band. London calling definitely better. Would listen again.

Gene Clark
Absolutely loved this album. I was hooked from the first song, and it only got better. Great amount of variation between the tracks - each one felt different to any of the others. Perfect folk/country/rock album.

Not for me. All the worst bits about British 60s music including the Beatles. Jumps around from idea to idea with no consistency. No soul to it at all. As a stand alone song I didn't mind balloon burning so was tempted to give it 2 stars, but nah 1 you get

Nice. Would like to listen again as was quite understated, but enjoyed all the songs. Potentially a bit samey and formulaic but need to listen again to be sure

Coat Of Many Colors
Dolly Parton
Have to give it a 5 for the emotional response it provoked in me. First song was enough to make me cry and that carried on for the first few tracks. So pure and evocative of a time and place. Top tracks: coat of many colours, my blue tears, early morning breeze, here I am. Least fave track: the way I see you (just felt a little out of place)

Decent, not really my thing though. Torn between a 2 and a 3, overall didn't grate me when listening though so going for a 3. Couldn't get bill Burr's impression out of my head when listening to even flow so extra point for that.

Always gonna be slightly biased against this album for childhood reasons. Thought I'd never have to listen to the libertines again. Have to say though, the music wasn't bad at all. Still can't bring myself to give it any more than 2 stars though
