I really quite liked it. Makes me wish scissor sisters clashed with the 1975 instead of Charli xcx.

Surprised the rating for this one isn't higher tbh

All Ratings
Miles Davis
3/5
Jazz isn't really my thing but this is quite pleasant and chill. Apparently there was a lot of improvisation and very little rehearsal which makes it even more impressive that it sounds so nice.
Flamenco sketches was the most laid back and I really liked it despite it being the only one from this album not in his ten most popular.
Q-Tip
4/5
Easy listening. Basically every song would work well during a night talking with friends.
The guy was in A Tribe Called Quest apparently.
Stevie Wonder
3/5
Fairly good. Quite a variety of songs some much better than others.
Jurassic 5
3/5
4/5
Considering all I know U2 for is having one of their albums forced into every iTunes library and nobody liking that I must say I'm pleasantly surprised. Pretty damn good especially the first few songs.
Paul Simon
4/5
Fairly good songs in this album. Don't think I've listened to any of them before, at least not actively.
'Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard' sounded familiar and was brilliant. 'Paranoia Blues' was surprisingly good.
Van Halen
2/5
'Top Jimmy' made me think this would be a fairly good album, 'Drop Dead Legs' put a swift end to that.
'Panama' is excellent and easily the best song on this album. I'm not actually a big fan of 'Jump', maybe I just think it's too long or overplayed.
'Hot for Teacher' could have been good if it was about something that isn't so damn cringe for 27-30 year olds to write.
I don't think I've ever been excited about a guitar solo and they often feel a little unnecessary. This album is primarily guitar solos.
Femi Kuti
3/5
A little long but I must say I'm surprised by how enjoyable this was.
Sonic Youth
3/5
With a lot of these songs I feel so close to really enjoying them but some aspect of them is holding me back. Maybe this is something that will diminish with time and further listening. The Wikipedia articles I read about this album and it's loose influence, Philip K Dick, were very interesting.
Cotton crown was probably my favourite.
Michael Jackson
5/5
'Workin Day and Night' might just be one of my favourites of his. I can't believe I'd never heard it before. Solid album all round.
The Cure
2/5
Depressing as hell. Wasn't really that into it.
Liz Phair
4/5
Not sure where the lofi is but very good.
Hookworms
4/5
The first three songs are really really good but it goes downhill a bit from there. No idea why it's on this list but I can't say I'm too upset that it is.
Sly & The Family Stone
3/5
Some good songs on here but I probably wouldn't listen to this album again.
Metallica
5/5
Very good, very nice.
Pere Ubu
1/5
Abysmal. The very few good parts aren't even whole songs but sections of songs. Not even possible to just listen to the good bits.
Sade
4/5
Super Furry Animals
2/5
Wasn't really listening properly but it seemed okay I suppose.
Black Sabbath
3/5
Alright album. No real standouts but no bad songs either.
Nico
1/5
Boring and unenjoyable.
Common
4/5
Some good songs on here. Kanye sure was talented before he went insane.
Genesis
2/5
Not atrocious. One good song in there, most of them are fine. Far, far, far too long. Maybe it should be 1 star instead?
Pink Floyd
5/5
Incredible.
Lorde
4/5
Sitting by a river is a perfect place to listen to this album. Some damn good songs on here and very enjoyable overall.
Slipknot
3/5
Perfectly fine album. Certainly didn't hate it or anything. Either 2 or 3 stars I'm not really sure.
The Sugarcubes
2/5
Aight I guess I don't know
The Cult
2/5
Just a bit generic. Wasn't really interested. Could probably be 3 stars instead of I was in a better mood.
Stan Getz
2/5
Fine. A bit boring, but fine. Good background music for a restaurant I suppose.
Faust
2/5
Weird. Not the worst but not great.
Emerson, Lake & Palmer
2/5
Some good bits in there but again surrounded by a sea of 'fine I suppose'
Little Richard
4/5
Pretty good. Sounds a lot like Elvis but I'm not sure who came first. Probably this guy if his nickname is anything to go by.
The Byrds
3/5
Nice album. Some really good songs on this one even though I don't really think country is my thing. Life in prison is a very strange song. Perhaps I'm missing something but it's just a guy feeling sad because he killed his wife??
Cypress Hill
3/5
Not as good as some of the other hip hop albums I've heard so far but still pretty good.
Patti Smith
2/5
Not bad, just didn't really like it much.
Adele
5/5
Love some Adele
Pretenders
4/5
Love
1/5
Han Solo :)
Deep Purple
3/5
Not bad but large chunks of it were just guitar solos.
Simply Red
4/5
Very enjoyable, "Money's too tight" and "Heaven" are good but the last two songs are really boring. Much better than I was expecting.
David Ackles
3/5
Not bad. No songs particularly stood out to be though.
The Zutons
3/5
Perfectly fine.
Bob Dylan
4/5
Great album. I don't know if I would have appreciated it as much if I hadn't seen a complete unknown.
"It's alright ma" was shit though.
The Darkness
3/5
It's crazy just how much better their hit is than the rest of the album. A few others are not bad but overall it's just fine. Maybe this should actually be 2 stars idk.
The Rolling Stones
3/5
Take away the first song and you have an album that is 'fine' at best. It's crazy to me that the stones don't actually have a 'main' album and that all their hits are spread around.
Ella Fitzgerald
2/5
'let's call the whole thing off' is annoying the hell out of me. It just keeps going. How did she find so many things to pronounce?
Boring and too long but 1 star feels too harsh.
The Everly Brothers
2/5
Randy Newman
3/5
I know he's done a lot of Disney songs but god it's strange listening to this.
Depeche Mode
5/5
Wonderful stuff
Nine Inch Nails
3/5
I really wanted to like this more than I did. Some good songs on here, particularly 'closer'. The industrial sound might take some getting used to and the album felt like it dragged a bit.
Hurt doesn't hold a candle to the cover by Johnny cash.
Pixies
4/5
Perhaps a little generous.
Rufus Wainwright
2/5
First song is very papers please. Not a fan of 'pretty things', his voice sounds very whiney.
Overall it's too long and whiney for my liking. 2 might be a bit harsh but oh well.
Elton John
5/5
Portishead
4/5
First song made me think I wouldn't like it but it grew on me
Peter Tosh
2/5
Not bad just wasn't feeling it
Frank Black
3/5
It's aight. A few good songs here and there.
Black Sabbath
3/5
I can't tell if I'm being too generous with some of these. This could probably be a 2 as well.
The Specials
2/5
Didn't really enjoy it :/
3/5
Neil Young & Crazy Horse
3/5
Moby Grape
2/5
Alice Cooper
3/5
Interesting but a bit odd
Jimi Hendrix
4/5
Good album. Very enjoyable. Intro sucks ass though.
Electric Light Orchestra
5/5
Excellent.
Deep Purple
3/5
Not bad but not as good as the other deep purple album. None of the songs really stood out to me on their own.
The Clash
4/5
Very nice
5/5
Hell yeah
Weather Report
3/5
Pleasant but just makes me feel like I'm in a hotel lobby. Jazz really isn't my thing.
Radiohead
2/5
Just felt whiney as hell
Mylo
4/5
Funky
Peter Gabriel
4/5
Pleasant
Dexys Midnight Runners
1/5
'One of those things' being just okay and how chill 'reminisce pt 2' was have narrowly saved this from being a 1.
'Listen to this' came in like a nasally jumpscare. How do you have a 12 minute song and still manage to make all the others feel too long.
This could have very easily been a 1 and perhaps it still should be.
'the waltz' is 8 minutes long. Nevermind. This shit is a 1.
Madonna
3/5
There are a few good songs on here but as a while the album is slow, boring, and too long.
Fela Kuti
4/5
Good album. Very interesting life.
I think I prefer Femi kuti over this album but they should both be 4 stars. Although I apparently rated Femi kuti 3 at the time.
Adam & The Ants
3/5
There were some interesting songs but I want feeling it overall. 2 might be too harsh.
Creedence Clearwater Revival
2/5
The best song on here was a cover. Songs ranged from fine to boring.
10cc
3/5
All over the place. Not bad but not great.
Siouxsie And The Banshees
4/5
I like it.
Scissor Sisters
5/5
I really quite liked it. Makes me wish scissor sisters clashed with the 1975 instead of Charli xcx.
TV On The Radio
3/5
Pretty middle of the road album. Maybe it should be 2 stars instead.
Air
4/5
Probably wouldn't listen to any of these songs by themselves but the album as a whole is really nice.
2/5
Wanky long songs but they weren't terrible.
The Streets
5/5
Doing my bit for the global rating.
The Byrds
3/5
It's fine. Second song was really good. Bit distracted while listening.
Kate Bush
3/5
It's a perfectly fine album. Cloudburster was perfect walking speed
Led Zeppelin
5/5
And the 5s have it
The Byrds
3/5
It's fine. Very 60s sounding. Just like all the other byrds albums.
Wilco
1/5
So boring. Sleep inducing even.
Isaac Hayes
2/5
Peasant enough but I can't shake the feeling that it would be better while watching the movie it was made for.
Wilco
2/5
Pretty boring honestly. Couple good bits in there but it's just too long. 1 feels slightly unfair though.
The Associates
1/5
Can't even say I enjoyed part of it.
Fugees
3/5
Good but nothing really stood out to me.
Guided By Voices
1/5
28 songs in 41 minutes is insane. I don't know about this one. It wasn't the worst but I'll also never listen to any of the songs either on their own or as part of this album again. Tinny and hissy wasn't particularly pleasant.
Maybe I'm being too harsh but it just didn't work for me.
Beck
4/5
I quite like it. Very varied but enjoyable. Just gets a 4 I'd say.
Keith Jarrett
3/5
Pleasant while walking but did drag a little by part IIc. Any other day it would have been a 2. Story behind it was interesting.
Doves
3/5
It's not bad but the Wikipedia blub makes it sound way better than it is. I'm sure in the right scenario this could be a 4 or maybe even a 5 but for now it's a 3.
Everything But The Girl
1/5
Boring ballads. Good for focusing on work but I would probably not enjoy actively listening to them.
Def Leppard
4/5
Fun
Nick Drake
4/5
Pretty nice. Way to blue reminds me of feed the birds from Mary Poppins somehow.
Mariah Carey
1/5
It sounds like a Christmas album.
Soul II Soul
2/5
Just kinda boring.
David Bowie
4/5
It's good but I'm sure it's not his best.
Red Hot Chili Peppers
4/5
Actually really liked it. Wish it wasn't so long. Nobody needs a double album.
Rod Stewart
3/5
It's fine. He's okay. Inoffensive.
The Cars
5/5
Brilliant stuff. Never heard them before.
The Rolling Stones
4/5
Some brilliant songs scattered among some forgettable fluff. Better than most of the albums I've given 3 however.
Parliament
4/5
Funky indeed
Madness
2/5
One incredible song the rest were pretty shit. Not a good album overall.
Rage Against The Machine
5/5
Very nice, very cool. Had only really heard one of these before but they all go hard.
Queen
4/5
Not bad
Rahul Dev Burman
1/5
Interesting and dull at the same time. Maybe it was interesting how dull it was.
Jah Wobble's Invaders Of The Heart
2/5
Not unpleasant for the most part except that one song with a peaking microphone in the background. That song would have been my favourite if it weren't for that.
Cream
3/5
Red Hot Chili Peppers
4/5
Better hits on this one but I slightly prefer blood sugar sex magik
Röyksopp
3/5
It's alright got more into it by the end
Booker T. & The MG's
4/5
Recognised the first song immediately. Whole thing was pleasant all the way through bar one song.
Wild Beasts
1/5
Forgettable, whiney, doesn't even work well as background music.
The Pharcyde
3/5
Good and fun but not anything special
The Sensational Alex Harvey Band
2/5
Shit but vaguely entertaining in some kind of way. Hope Spotify doesn't start recommending these songs to me.
Pearl Jam
5/5
Hit after hit
Killing Joke
2/5
One or two were pretty okay idk
The Flaming Lips
3/5
Fine
4/5
Generally very good
Kate Bush
3/5
I preferred it to hounds of love or whatever but some of the end songs aren't it
Grateful Dead
1/5
Fucking hell that was awful. Every single song felt like a slog in its own right, let alone the whole album. There was a bit that I quite liked and I wanted to know what song it was that had just started. I was 7 minutes in to a 12 minute song. 30 seconds later it was back to being crap. Skipped through feedback hoping to find some actual music at some point but no. No music. Awful. Should have given up after track 1.
The Doors
4/5
Pretty good. Loved the first song the rest were generally good too.
Van Halen
4/5
Way better than 1984.
Dusty Springfield
2/5
Good voice but terribly boring songs. Not great.
Sisters Of Mercy
3/5
Not bad. Liked the first song.
N.W.A.
3/5
Wasn't as into it as I was hoping
The Temptations
3/5
Fine but didn't feel like anything particularly special.
Arcade Fire
3/5
Good but not particularly memorable
Iron Maiden
4/5
I liked it
Johnny Cash
5/5
Incredible stuff. Cocaine blues in particular. This whole album is fantastic.
Eminem
2/5
I like some Eminem but this wasn't it
The Gun Club
2/5
Boring. Not necessarily bad just boring. Cool drink of water blues sucks though. That one was almost painful.
Elvis Costello
3/5
It's aight
Kraftwerk
2/5
Groundbreaking once, now just a bit dull.
Lana Del Rey
2/5
She always comes across like she has no respect for her fans and this album wasn't that interesting.
Ramones
3/5
Eh it's alright
Nirvana
3/5
It's not bad but I feel like I'd appreciate it more if I was alive at the time or more into nirvana
The Velvet Underground
1/5
What an insanely unpleasant album. Not one redeeming quality.
Garbage
3/5
It's alright. I reckon I'd get more into it if I listened to it a few more times.
The Killers
5/5
Incredible album. Falls somewhat in the second half but brings it back with the last song.
R.E.M.
4/5
Marvin Gaye
4/5
Stephen Stills
3/5
Good at times, less good at others. Generally not bad though.
Led Zeppelin
3/5
Not bad but should have been shorter. Not their best.
Nick Drake
3/5
Good album. Preferred his first one but this is still good.
Hole
4/5
Really quite good
Metallica
3/5
Maybe it should be a 4 instead idk. It's good but I'm not sure about it overall.
Leonard Cohen
2/5
Fine but kinda boring
Pink Floyd
5/5
Even the really long songs were enjoyable.
Joan Baez
2/5
Sings like Hugh Jackman. Not really my thing.
Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
4/5
Second half is better than the first.
Hole
3/5
Preferred the other hole album but maybe it'll grow on me
Koffi Olomide
1/5
I probably would have given it a 2 perhaps a 3 on another day but the guys a rapist and did an astro world before it was cool.
Fleetwood Mac
5/5
Never listened all the way through before but this is excellent stuff.
Public Enemy
2/5
I just wasn't that into it. I dunno
The Mars Volta
3/5
Better than a lot of the other 2000s prog rock but still not amazing
Bill Evans Trio
2/5
Probably okay background music. The kind that is played so quietly you don't even notice when it stops but it's pleasant nonetheless.
Fleetwood Mac
3/5
I didn't like most of Buckingham's songs and it felt like nicks was doing a lot of the heavy lifting on this album. Would have probably been better if Buckingham hadn't contributed at all.
Bee Gees
1/5
What possessed them to write a ballad to Israel? Only a couple of good bits in this album but nowhere near enough.
Beck
2/5
A few genuinely very good bits in here but the album as a whole wasn't that great
Big Brother & The Holding Company
2/5
Piece of my heart is great, but I'm not a huge fan of the rest. Joplin's voice borders on grating.
Common
3/5
A few good songs in the middle but I definitely preferred his other album
Blur
5/5
Loses momentum half way through. Some great songs I had never heard before on here.
KISS
2/5
I was expecting something more for a band I had heard so much about. The album was strangely quiet and gave me Christmas vibes towards the end. The best song was the one that was the most different to the rest of the album.
The Prodigy
5/5
Where's crab rave?
David Bowie
4/5
Justin Timberlake
1/5
Of all the artists that have come up, I was the most surprised to see Justin Timberlake. The album was produced by the Neptunes with songs originally for Michael Jackson and you can really tell.
That being said Justin Timberlake fucking sucks. Boring album with lifeless singing over the top. Made my train journey feel twice as long as it was. Dreadful stuff.
Beastie Boys
2/5
Some beastie boy songs are good on their own but this album doesn't have any of them and any more than 4 minutes of then in a row starts to get old. Lyrics aren't cleaver, voice is grating. I just don't think I really like the beastie boys.
Iggy Pop
3/5
I'd give it 4 if Iggy pop hadn't included his pedophilia anthem on this album. He was 30 when he wrote this.
The Dictators
2/5
Not particularly exciting with some really quite dumb lyrics
Various Artists
2/5
Eh. It's fine. Don't kill me Phil.
The Allman Brothers Band
3/5
Clearly very talented and would probably make good background music.
Teenage Fanclub
3/5
Some good some less good. Why would anyone make Satan. Not bad overall.
Kacey Musgraves
4/5
Beautiful album. Did feel like it dragged a little. No bad songs on here. Female country singers are definitely better than male country singers.
Al Green
4/5
Very enjoyable
The Offspring
4/5
Pretty fun
Bob Dylan
4/5
Yeah Bob Dylan's good at what he does. Who knew!
Eurythmics
2/5
There's a reason nobody ever plays any of the other songs.
The Doors
3/5
Some good songs but also some pretty boring sections in there that really let the album down
Ministry
3/5
A very interesting album which I must say I enjoyed more than the doors album I got yesterday. I'm not sure where exactly to place this as 3 feels low but 4 feels too high. I'm hindsight I was probably too harsh on the nine inch nails album and maybe that should have been a 4 and this a 3. N.W.O and Jesus Built my Hotrod are the best two songs on here.
Jimi Hendrix
4/5
Low 4 high 3 just didn't connect with it that much
MGMT
5/5
The second half of the album is one hell of a step down from the first half but fuck it 5 stars for those singles.
Missy Elliott
3/5
Easy listening
Public Enemy
3/5
Happy Mondays
2/5
Pretty shit honestly
Run-D.M.C.
3/5
Undoubtedly important and influential just not really my thing. It's tricky and walk this way are undeniable classics though. You be illin was pretty funny as well.
Justice
4/5
Not bad but a little bloated. Low 4 I'd say.
Tom Waits
1/5
It's not even unpleasant to listen to or anything. I just wouldn't ever want to. And Tom Waits is not even remotely funny or interesting despite his best efforts.
The Temptations
2/5
Not for me. Idrk why.
Steely Dan
5/5
Very nice. Second half dips a little but still great stuff.
The Chemical Brothers
1/5
Not my kind of music and too long. Was waiting for it to be over. Song with Noel Gallagher is kinda good though.
Giant Sand
2/5
So very boring.
Jethro Tull
3/5
It's fine I suppose.
Def Leppard
5/5
Great fun very nice. Bit of a slow start considering they are singles, but then half the album is singles.
CHIC
4/5
Funky
Bob Dylan
3/5
Nowhere as good as the other two of his I've heard. Someone should have confiscated his harmonica. Considered giving it a 2 but that felt a little too unfair.
Adele
4/5
Calexico
3/5
Pleasant
Richard Thompson
4/5
Very easy listening. Title track is the most energetic for sure.
Prince
2/5
What an incredibly mediocre album.
Doves
4/5
The second half came to the rescue in a big way. I should relisten to the first one because I think I was a bit harsh.
Willie Colón & Rubén Blades
4/5
Pretty good honestly.
Derek & The Dominos
5/5
Fantastic stuff. A little long but very enjoyable.
Barry Adamson
4/5
Pretty interesting. Huge variety of genres in here. Lost me a bit in the middle but I liked it.
k.d. lang
3/5
Not bad
Joni Mitchell
2/5
Just boring as hell. Not much more I can say.
The Strokes
4/5
Webcam mic.
I hoped I would enjoy the non-hits more than I did but it's still a great album.
The Vines
3/5
Some good songs and not bad at all but not the most interesting
Green Day
5/5
It couldn't be anything else
The Doors
2/5
Great first song. Pretty good last song. The middle? Meh. Not for me.
Suzanne Vega
2/5
Pleasant enough but not particularly interesting or exciting.
The Rolling Stones
2/5
Not bad or anything but it's just a bunch of covers
Suede
2/5
Two decent songs at the start then I spent the rest of my walk waiting for this to end do I can listen to something else
The Flaming Lips
5/5
Really liked this album. Especially compared to the albums I've gotten recently.
Tim Buckley
1/5
Quite like the sound but the lyrics are rough
Dizzee Rascal
2/5
Couple good song but it's not great. I don't even think it's a particularly good example of grime.
The Rolling Stones
3/5
The rolling stones really are just 'fine'. I would have preferred the us version. Shorter and with paint it black.
Nirvana
3/5
This album's just fine.
Todd Rundgren
1/5
Started with the best song then just got worse and kept on going and going
Marianne Faithfull
3/5
Enjoyable
Bob Marley & The Wailers
2/5
Eh
Lloyd Cole And The Commotions
3/5
Grew on me
Herbie Hancock
2/5
Not my bag.
Beastie Boys
2/5
Better than the other album I had by them but I just don't care for the beastie boys.
James Taylor
3/5
Pleasant
Simple Minds
2/5
It's alright I suppose. Nothing really stood out though.
Metallica
3/5
Not as good as master of puppets. Low 3 I guess.
5/5
A little weak between the hits but god damn are those three songs excellent
Girls Against Boys
1/5
Over it after just 4 songs
Astrud Gilberto
3/5
Nice but just that
The Zombies
4/5
Just missing Eminem

3/5
Sound track for a guy walking around a rundown town and reminiscing. Would have gone hard during COVID.
King Crimson
5/5

5/5
It has to be

4/5
Some absolute bangers but a little too star spangled for me
The Modern Lovers
2/5
Just not very interesting. Dull voice dull songs
The Stooges
3/5
Interesting to hear Iggy pops earlier stuff. Nodding off during the album but I don't think that's related to the quality or anything.

3/5
Mysterious sounding. Very movie soundtrack.
Dolly Parton

Wanky fuckers

Justice for Heidi

One of the greatest of all time
Johnny Cash
5/5
Really good album. Some of the covers are improvements, some just don't work here but still an incredible listen. Taking big iron out in the reissue it's criminal.

3/5
Not sure what to make of that but it certainly wasn't bad
Skunk Anansie
2/5
Not bad necessarily but I just didn't get into it at all.

2/5
I really like not if you were the last junkie so I was excited for this album but it was just so disappointing. Every day should be a holiday was pretty good though.

Obnoxious but I didn't hate it

5/5
Was wondering if it was as good as his first prison album then in comes the back to back San Quentin
