I Am a Bird Now

Antony and the Johnsons

1/5

Reminiscent of Tiny Tim tiptoeing through the tulips. Depressing on all fronts. Not my cup of tea. While I can appreciate the pain the singer must feel - it unfortunately made it a painful listen as well.

Seventeen Seconds

The Cure

3/5

Can definitely see the influence this album has on the rest of the 80s. The more upbeat songs stand out - Play for Today is particularly a favorite. Solid but not my cup of tea.

Hot Buttered Soul

Isaac Hayes

3/5

Only 4 songs - but don't let that fool you. They are long. A little psychedelic funk in some of them - which is enjoyable. Isaac Hayes voice is deep and smooth. I would imagine he has better works.

Smash

The Offspring

4/5

Wow - make me a 15 year old boy again! This album is fun from start to finish. Now it’s not anything that I would throw in a rotation of must listen to’s but I can see why any teenager at the time played it loud.

Ray Charles

5/5

Fantastic mix with a big band sound.

James Brown Live At The Apollo

James Brown

5/5

Great

808 State

2/5

Early techno music reminiscent of Miami Vice.

If You're Feeling Sinister

Belle & Sebastian

3/5

If I didn’t know any better I would think it was the Kinks with just slightly less energy. Not a bad listen.

Ambient 1/Music For Airports

Brian Eno

3/5

Wonderful music to meditate and go to sleep to. Very peaceful.

Scott 4

Scott Walker

2/5

Interesting for sure. It almost sounds like a fake album in the sense that it’s trying to hard to be a period piece. This album is not something I would listen to again

Machine Head

Deep Purple

5/5

Suberb. Just a fantastic iconic sound. It’s the sound of rock n roll in its best form from the 70s.

The xx

3/5

Cool music to listen to. Nice to just have on in the background.

Get Behind Me Satan

The White Stripes

1/5

A few okay songs. But as an album, I can’t think of what setting you would play this. It’s not good for a party. It’s not good for the car. It just doesn’t have a home.

At Budokan

Cheap Trick

4/5

Great live album. Done very well.

Out Of The Blue

Electric Light Orchestra

4/5

Some great songs

The Velvet Underground & Nico

The Velvet Underground

2/5

Meh. A little Bob Dylan-esque. Not terrible but not something I would play again.
