Tusk

Fleetwood Mac

4/5

Over & Over & Angel - typical of FWM - great to relax to. Love the brass band in Tusk. The assuredness behind What makes you think you’re the one? is a vibe.

Automatic For The People

R.E.M.

2/5

The belters make up for what is otherwise unremarkable filler. Listen to the sidewinder sleeps tonight, everybody hurts and sweetness follows.

Sound of Silver

LCD Soundsystem

4/5

North American Scum is the standout track - however “Someone great”, “All my friends” make for some good background ambience. “New York, I love you But you’re bringing me down” is a wonderful sentiment.

The Suburbs

Arcade Fire

3/5

The month of may is a great track for the treadmill if that’s your thing. The Suburbs is the standout track here.

My Aim Is True

Elvis Costello

2/5

Aladdin Sane

David Bowie

3/5

The jean genie and let’s spend the night together are the clear killer tracks. Aladdin sane has an excellent piano rift.

Elastica

3/5

connection is the stand out track - everyone would get behind the sentiment of waking up - worth a listen in its entirety

The Who Sell Out

The Who

3/5

An experience. I can see for miles is a classic. With songs like Mary ann with the shady hand and heinz baked beans it’s refreshing to hear a band as mainstream as the who not take themselves too seriously.

Os Mutantes

3/5

Panis Et Circenses and Baby were the most accessible tracks.

Electric Ladyland

Jimi Hendrix

4/5

the jimi hendrix experience. you remember where you were the first time you heard this album. always worth a listen!

Chocolate Starfish And The Hot Dog Flavored Water

Limp Bizkit

3/5

Not listened to this album since being a teenager. My Way, Rollin’ as good as ever. Hot dog is a sentiment that teenagers need to hear.

Winter In America
