Sail Away

Randy Newman

1/5

Utter crap. Didn’t enjoy a single track. Sounded like it was a cartoon character or someone putting on silly voices.

Kenya

Machito

3/5

Quite enjoyed it considering an aversion to jazz.

Bob Marley & The Wailers

3/5

Chill, surprisingly enjoyable.

Strangeways, Here We Come

The Smiths

2/5

Bland.

Juju

Siouxsie And The Banshees

1/5

Absolute garbage. Every song sounded the same, and not in a good way.

Rumours

Fleetwood Mac

5/5

4th day of listening and I get this one. It’s all downhill from here. 5 stars.

Amnesiac

Radiohead

3/5

Dreary but ok. Some good tracks, some not so good. Standard Radiohead fare.

Suicide

3/5

Weird. Wasn’t too bad, and then track 6 (Johnny Teardrop) was just strange and went on for 10 mins. Not bad otherwise though, considering I’d never even heard of the band or the album.

The Holy Bible

Manic Street Preachers

4/5

Enjoyed it - better than their more recent stuff

Pretzel Logic

Steely Dan

4/5

Enjoyed it. Easy listening, gentle rock.

Step In The Arena

Gang Starr

5/5

Scream, Dracula, Scream

Rocket From The Crypt

4/5

Never heard of them, but the description of mid 90’s rock suggested I’d enjoy it and I did. Will definitely listen to more of their stuff.

Veckatimest

Grizzly Bear

3/5

Average. Didn’t dislike it but probably wouldn’t seek out their music again either.

Nebraska

Bruce Springsteen

3/5

Blandly enjoyable. Wouldn’t seek it out to listen to again but wouldn’t turn it off if it came on either

Gasoline Alley

Rod Stewart

2/5

Ok. Came into it expecting to give 1 star, and was pleasantly surprised. 2 stars.

Sail Away

Randy Newman

1/5

Utter crap. Didn’t enjoy a single track. Sounded like it was a cartoon character or someone putting on silly voices.

Felt like a very basic and slightly dull ripoff of Nirvana

Soundgarden

3/5

Depressing and not as good as it was when I was 17

Like an Austin Powers soundtrack.

Play

Moby

4/5

You're Living All Over Me

Dinosaur Jr.

3/5

Enjoyed listening to it, and the bonus of a cover of The Cure’s Just Like Heaven at the end was very welcome. 3.5 out of 5, but 3 seems too low so I’m going to give it a 4.

With The Beatles

Beatles

3/5

Not bad. Brief but flowed well. 3/5

3/5

Enjoyable. 3 and a half stars.
