I’m a Lonesome Fugitive

Merle Haggard

3/5

Manly country take on regret and longing. Really enjoyed but not really my usual cup of tea.

Thriller

Michael Jackson

5/5

Justified masterpiece status. Incredible piece of work.

In The Court Of The Crimson King

King Crimson

4/5

Fantastic musicianship, particularly the drummer! I could definitely see myself revisiting this.

Never Mind The Bollocks, Here’s The Sex Pistols

Sex Pistols

4/5

A classic

Natty Dread

Bob Marley & The Wailers

3/5

Odessey And Oracle

The Zombies

4/5

Catchy hooks, jangly guitars, lovely vocals and harmonies, poetic lyrics. What's not to like. Couple of overly cheesy parts in my opinion preventing the full 5.

The xx

3/5

At the time this must have been a nice contrast to the seemingly hundreds of generic messy indie pop bands in the charts. Sophisticated understated sound but a bit on the bland side for me. 3*

Achtung Baby

3/5

Bit dated but the singles still hit the spot

One Nation Under A Groove

Funkadelic

3/5

Funkeh

Black Holes and Revelations

Muse

Guero

Beck

4/5

Always thought of this one as the closest he made to Odelay. Really fun listen and some memorable tracks that still pop into my head 20 years later.

5/5

Amazing

Dirt

Alice In Chains

5/5

What a band. What an album

Penthouse And Pavement

This Is Fats Domino

Fats Domino

3/5

I get its relevance but it didn't really excite me

Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs

Derek & The Dominos

3/5

Some great playing. Layla is an all time classic. Lots of long sections of noodling over a blues rhythm. 3/5.

Venus Luxure No. 1 Baby

Girls Against Boys

2/5

Not very memorable. Enjoyed some of the tracks individually but a slog all in. 2/5

The Velvet Underground & Nico

The Velvet Underground

4/5

Some beautiful melodies and thought provoking lyrics in a sea of distortion. Classic

Peter Gabriel

2/5

Back In Black

AC/DC

Alexander 'Skip' Spence

Hard listen in parts but the background story elevates it.

5/5

Beautiful, fun, profound.

A Short Album About Love

The Divine Comedy

3/5

I'm glad I listened to it. As someone else said I can definitely see the influence on Ween and Primus' weirder stuff. Hard work for a mainly pop listener and won't be rushing back.
