Didn't like them at the time, this listen hasn't change that. Nothing stands out except Maybe This Hollywood Life. Sub-Bowie, identity-less dull pastiche. What I have heard of Butler's other work is more interesting than this. 2 Head before? No Owned: No 0/1001, 0/1 Will I get? No Recommend: No

Dylan's best 70's album. Tangled up in Blue may be his best song. Each track is great, showcasing a renewed lyrical strength and a mostly stripped back instrumentation. I even like the much maligned Lily, rosemary and the Jack of hearts! The only thing better (to me) is the original 1974 test pressing. 5 Heard before? Yes Owned: Yes 1/1001, 1/3 (33%) Will I get?

First 2 tracks are obviously great. Disco classics. The rest is pleasant enough. Loses some steam on Side 2. Can hear the formation of a lot of Jackson's sound for the next decade. 3.5 Heard before? Not really, 2 of the singles Owned: No 0/1001, 0/2 Will I get? No Recommend: Sure

Works great as straight up hard rock, or as hard rock parody. 7 songs, 4 bangers. A fun album for sure. 4/5 Heard before? Just the singles Owned: No. 1/1001, 1/5 (20%) Will I get? Maybe Recommend: Yes

I have heard other Mayfield albums, of course, this is a bit more laid back album, less pulsating bombastic. Solid funk. So in Love is a standout. Seems good but maybe not essential Mayfield. 3.5 - rounded up Heard before? No Owned: No. 1/1001, 1/6 (16%) Will I get? No Recommend: Sure

There was a time I listened to the doors, mostly their first album. This has a nice balance of blues, rock, and balladry. The best album I have heard of theirs Let down by the side 2. 3.5 rounded down Heard before? A couple of songs Owned: No. 1/1001, 1/7 (14%) Will I get? No Recommend: Sure

I know the name, but I'm not sure I've ever heard any Steve Winwood. You definitely know, you are in the 80's from the first note. Something about the cleanliness of the sounds I don't like, but that could be my own 80 bias even though this is only 1980. Reminds of Peter Gabriel, but maybe it should be the other way around. 2.5 rounded down Heard before? No Owned: No. 1/1001, 1/8 (12.5%) Will I get? No Recommend: No

Not sure how I missed this album. Selma's songs was the last album I listened to by Bjork, was a big fan of her previous 3 albums. I was even listening to Matmos at the time. Anyway this is a fantastic album, flows really well, maybe lacks a peak, but great beats and lyrics, and her voice of course! 4 Heard before? Not really Owned: No. 1/1001, 1/9 (11%) Will I get?

Starts with Worf, so already a winner. Can sound a little dated and a little unvaried, but still plenty of solid beats and rhythms. First Orbital album is better though. 3.5 - rounded up Heard before? Yes, a long time ago Owned: No. 1/1001, 1/11 (8.5%) Will I get? No Recommend: Sure

Not a Stooges album I have or have heard before. More consistent than some of their others, lacks some of the highs though. The sax brings side 2 to another level! 3.5 rounded up Heard before? No Owned: No. 1/1001, 1/12 (8%) Will I get? No Recommend: Sure

Not terrible familiar with Van Halen. Not a good first impression. Hard to get past the banality of the lyrics. There is a guitar solo as a track which is interesting. 2.5 rounded down Heard before? No Owned: No. 4/1001, 4/17 (23%) Will I get? No Recommend: No

Lesser Radiohead, maybe, but still a favourite of mine. Loved it at the time, but did think it could drop a couple of tracks. 4.5 rounded down Heard before? Yes Owned: Yes, 7/1001, 7/24 (29%) Will I get? Already have Recommend: Yes

Another Undertones, interesting. Solid punk, some great standout tracks, but its already 1979. Post punk is already thriving. It's got Teenage Kicks and here comes the summer! 3.5 rounded up Heard before? Some songs Owned: No, 7/1001, 7/25 (28%) Will I get? Already have Recommend: Yes

Never heard of Solomon Burke before, which does seem odd. Amazing voice, somewhat standard soul/rock sound but thoroughly enjoyable album. I like it! 3.5 rounded up Heard before? No Owned: No, 7/1001, 7/28 (25%) Will I get? Maybe Recommend: Sure

Aware of Ice Cube, not this album though. Like a lot of 90s albums, a bit overstuffed but flows well. Has that early 90s sound, which has its positives and negatives. 3.5 rounded down Heard before? No Owned: No. 7/1001, 7/29 (24%) Will I get? No Recommend: Sure

I did have this on MP3, didn't remember much about it though. Very interesting post-punk, sharp in many ways. Can hear the 80s punks lifting so much from this. First side is the stronger. 4 Heard before? Yes Owned: No. 8/1001, 8/32 (25%) Will I get? Yes Recommend: Yes

Had not heard this Kate Bush album before. Very interesting album, definitely needs a few more listens but I really enjoyed it. Her accent work raised an eyebrow! Heard before? No Owned: No. 8/1001, 8/33 (24%) Will I get? Yes Recommend: No sure

Another large blind spot, only really aware of their singles. The podcast 'Are u talking U2 to me' helped open my mind about them. This album starts really strong, really crisp sound to everything.

First time actually listening to the entire album. First impressions are it sounds bad. Not really, way more interesting sounding than I remember as a kid.
