My 1001 Albums Journey

Leonard Cohen

3/5

Weak start to the album but it picks up. Still a bit depressing overall.

Fela Kuti

3/5

Pretty decent despite the lyrics not being in English. Niceix of jazz and funk with African drums. The 15 minute drum solo to end the album is pure self indulgence though.

Elvis Presley

4/5

Good solid pop-rock. Short and sweet.

The Joshua Tree

U2

2/5

Strange. It's close to the type of music that I actually like, but I really cannot take to it.

Cheap Thrills

Big Brother & The Holding Company

4/5

Didn't realise Joplin had such a good voice.

Wish You Were Here

Pink Floyd

3/5

Musically great if you like this kind of thing, but it's almost just instrumental.

3 + 3

The Isley Brothers

4/5

Good soul funk.

Maggot Brain

Funkadelic

2/5

10 minute guitar solo to start the album would have had me turning off if I hadn't had to listen to the whole album. The rest of the album was nothing more than OK.

Goo

Sonic Youth

3/5

Not bad, but nothing jumps out.

Speakerboxxx/The Love Below

OutKast

2/5

Way too long.

Come Find Yourself

Fun Lovin' Criminals

2/5

Expected to find this at least a little better.
