1001 Albums Summary

Very enjoyable, strong start with E-Pro.

Easy 5 star

Surprisingly good, likely something I won't listen to again. Maybe pick out certain songs.

Difficult to rate, when this album came out I listened a lot to it. Not sure it has aged as well as some of there other Radiohead albums. I'm sure OK Computer is on this list and I would give that a 5 for sure. Will give this a 4 (partly for nostalgic sense). Jigsaw Falling Into Place favourite from the album.

Very much enjoyed, a solid 4 star compared to some of the weaker 4 stars so far. Would listen again and enjoyed most of the songs on the album. Particular shout out to the near 14 minute long Sex Machine.

Using the Bryn method of scoring this has to get a 5. An album that I would listen over an over again. No filler in my view, outside the most famous songs I quite enjoy Rocket Queen and Think About You.

First time I have actually listened to this album all the way through. Outside of Bat Out of Hell, nothing too exciting from my perspective. It was fine and enjoyable at times, I probably wouldn't go through the whole album again.

There are some good songs in here, but the covers are better. The Bob Dylan voice isn't for me. 2 star on the basis that there are some ok songs in here.

Enjoyed but not to shout about. I do like some post-hardcore (at the drive-in being my favourite) but this was very average for me.

Haven't listened to a whole Talking Heads album before. Very enjoyable, the big hit with Once in a Lifetime. Overall a solid album and I would listen again.

The lyrics are pretentious trash. Instrumentally I don't mind it. Not sure how to rate this one, if it was just the instrumental aspects I would happily listen to it in the background. However the problem is once he opens his mouth. Subject to editing I will put this as a 2 star .

Found this another tricky one to rate. Ultimately I have gone for a 4 star. Some crackers on here, particular favourites being Janie's Got a Gun, The Other Side and What It Takes. There is some filler in my view. Great combination of Aerosmith's early blues with the more hard rock and glam rock. I was in between 3 and 4 star possibly because I prefer their more bluesy early stuff from their self titled album, Get Your Wings and Toys in the Attic. I suspect they will be somewhere in this list.

Bit meh. I didn't find it offensive, but not something I would actively listen to.

Gone for a 3, may drop to a 2 on reflection but this was better than others that I have voted a 2. No bangers, but solid throughout.

Nothing really offensive, just not really for me. At times the songs phased into one. The most dramatic thing was the scream mid-way through the last song.

Very much an enjoyable listen. Have listened to this album a few times before as well and I don't get bored by it.

It is fine. Some well known songs but not something I would listen to in full. In terms of the Beatles, prefer some of the later albums.

At times a wall of noise but there was a lot of variety and surprises in there. Some I like, some I didn't. Can't remember the name of any songs but a solid 3 from me.

Don't know what to make of this album. I did listen again and it grew on me a little and maybe it will further listens. For now a 2 star.

Actually listened to this album a fair few times when it came out. It is an enjoyable listen and there are highlights with Intro, Crystallised and Night Time. There is a bit of filler and not quite 4-star worthy. Solid 3-star.

Pleasantly surprised by the album. My reference of UB40 is pretty much Red Red Wine so didn't have expectations. However enjoyed it with the highlight being Food for Thought. Will go 4 stars now subject to a possible downgrade.

Largely a random array of sounds and wailing. Butchered I Heard It Through The Grapevine as well.

I really enjoyed this, not an artist I have listened to before. Good mix of genres and felt the album flowed well together. Faster and Tightrope were my favourites. The only negative from me is that I felt towards the end the album started to tail off. However, going for 4 stars.

Just generally boring. Nothing offensive there and you can leave it on the background. Spotify kept playing and I had no idea it started another U2 album.

Great album, after U2 we needed improvement. Have heard a bunch of these before and really enjoyed listening to the whole album.

A difficult one to rate for sure. The album and Run DMC have significant influence into how modern Hip Hop and Rap has been shaped (along with the creation of rap rock), however the album itself doesn't have many highlights and a simple beat in each song. Rock Box is the standout for sure, the influence in creating and inspiring Rap Rock is of course important, however it is also just a really good song. I will go for 3 stars on balance.

Best way to start off an album, an 11 minute mostly instrumental song. Very much enjoyed the album. A very strong start in terms of the first 4 songs, did tail off a bit and therefore a 4 star.

Have listened to this album many times before, enjoyed it then and still enjoy it now. In the first instance you would think it is some wanky french-canadians wailing pretentious indie which to an extent it is, however the album is solid and there are some big highlights with Ocean of Noise and in particular My Body Is A Cage.

This is filthy rock, but I like it. Overall I prefer the self titled debut and Funhouse as complete albums. There are some great songs on this album with Raw Power and Gimmie Danger being two of them. Search and Destroy is just epic.

Nothing too offensive about the album, just a bit bored and not something I would listen to again. It felt long for a 40 minute album.

Not the best Radiohead album, however reasonably solid throughout. A few highlights in the album.

Nothing offensive. Don't understand why this is on the list, very average.

It is ok, happy to have it on the background. Two Weeks, one of those songs you hear on adverts and TV shows and you only find out who it is by from this.

Very enjoyable listen. Good Golly Miss Molly and Proud Mary being highlights for me. Nearly a 5-star, there were a few songs that were just ok from my side.

Looks like a solid run of albums and this was very much a good one. I would however say first two songs and last two songs crackers, middle five a bit more on the average side. I think the maths still come out to a four overall.

Overall as an album it is ok. Clearly some big songs in terms of Parklife and Girls & Boys and some other highlights in there as well. But there is some filler. It is a good album and good for the background.

I think this is a fantastic album. I have listened this is a number of times before. On the bluesy side for the Rolling Stones, but there are some cracking songs here and don't think there is much filler.

Have always been a fan and this is a solid album. The hits/singles are big ones in my view. A little bit of filler, however overall a good flow to the album, a lot of variety and an enjoyable listen.

Rather boring. The funky bassline on some songs save it a little bit.

Up my street. Listened to this album a while back, bluesy and soulfully. A very enjoyable listen.

It is a good live album and I do like the additional covers in terms of The Man Who Sold The World and Where Did You Sleep Last Night. However, going unplugged/acoustic lessens what makes Nirvana good so I think I can only go to a 3 star.

A difficult one to rate. The random wailing can get a bit annoying. However some the underlying music is strong and there are some songs I enjoyed there. Provisionally 3 subject to some a downgrade. I think there is plenty more Bjork and who knows, I might become a fan.

Mixed. It is too long for my liking. There is a lot in here I like. Problem is that you have a few songs that bluesy and very enjoyable, then a couple of not so good songs that are pop orientated. Just about a 3 star for me.

Not really my genre. I can appreciate what is being done here and some elements I enjoyed, but ultimately will not revisit.

An enjoyable listen, some hits/singles I would listen to again. However overall it was good background rather than something I would revisit as a whole album.

Doesn't do much for me. Nothing offensive in there.

Starts off ok, then just dips and boring. Again, I don't hate it, just good background music and inoffensive.

Haven't listened through the whole album before, it was simply great. A range of genres and not really any filler. Outside of Bohemian Rhapsody, The Prophet Song and Love of My Life as favourites from the album.

Never listened to Van Morrison before outside the bigger hits. I enjoyed the album. A bit of soul, some jazz elements, some stuff more rocky - a good mix. There were no big tracks I would say, but the album flowed well.

Haven't listened to a Muddy Waters album in full, but very much enjoyed this. I am a blues fan so this album was great for me. First song was probably the favourite. I also really liked Walking Through the Park however noticed that I played the reissued version and it had an extra song.

There is a lot to like here, however it is too long and you willing the album to finish. Started much better than it ended. Currently a 3 star but I might reassess.

Funky. The first song is by far the standout, however overall an album I enjoyed with a bit of variety.

One good song the rest a bit meh.

Didn't hate it. Didn't do anything for me.

A new one for me. Pleasantly surprised and on the better end for the more folksy music. In between a 3 and a 4 for me, might be a little harsh and go for a 3.

First half of this I was getting into and enjoying the album, but I think it starting getting annoying and maybe something about the voice started draining me.

There might be some bias as I do really like Rush, however this album is a triumph. Of course the 20 minute epic at the start is truly amazing but the remainder of the album stacks up well. Have listened to this album a number of times and will listen through many times more.

Light, breezy and a good listen. Certainly interesting, mix of genres in places.

Have listened to this a number of times before. Very much enjoy it. There is a little bit of filler in the album/a tad long. Nonetheless, a solid album.

Doesn't age well for sure. Didn't hate it, but didn't do too much for me outside the odd song like Heart.

I enjoyed this, jazzy, bluesy and a bit of soul. A relaxing listen. But nothing exceptional to push it to one of the higher ratings.

Some good, some boring. The two big hits are great along with some of the bluesy tracks towards the end. The rest was not too exciting.

Nothing too offensive, just found it rather dull.

Not sure how to really rate this, mix of genres and the album is all over the place, but it is also fun and enjoyable in parts. Overall, I would say I enjoyed the chaos.

I find little value in this album.

There is some good stuff in here, some of the well known hits are very enjoyable. However there is a lot in this album that doesn't age well (most notably the lyrics). Rap music has progressed from this. None the less, the nostalgia element of some of the songs retains a 3 star.

I wasn't sure what to expect. The only song I knew was The Killing Moon which is fantastic. The album as a whole I really enjoyed. Has some vibes of The Cure (I guess the same era).

Somewhat similar in my assessment for Eminem. There is a lot to enjoy in this album and quite a few 'bangers'. Lyrical themes more closely aligned to the gangsta rap genre so although there are some choice lyrics, maybe a bit less than Eminem. Solid 3 star.

Mixed from my perspective. There are some songs in here that I really like but there is a bunch of boring filler. A hybrid of other Britpop bands and you can see the influence/range of songs. Just scrapes a 3 from me.

I wasn't disgusted by it. However it is a really hard listen.

Don't really understand why this would be considered on this list. Rather boring and each song blended into each other.

I enjoyed it. Different from what I expected from a Beach Boys album. Good, but not enough to push it higher.

Very good. Some big hits and solid rap rock credentials with the title song Raising Hell.

Banger after banger. I like Britpop and Oasis so maybe there is bias, I however enjoyed the album as a whole and there weren't many tracks that were filler.

Very easy listening, didn't feel like it was over an hour long.

As with the other Muddy Waters album, very enjoyable and this one even bluesier. I quite liked it as a live album. A couple of good easier listening albums recently, looks like the trend is changing.

Funky hip hop. A delight of an album. Big hits and no filler.

Solid all round.

Just the album that I needed to get through reviewing some reports this afternoon.

I liked it. There were some Americana Bruce Springsteen vibes that I really liked towards the end of the album. However some of did blend in a bit so conservatively going for a 3 star, could be upgraded to 4 at a later date.

It's good. There are some big hits in there but also some filler. Good background music.

It was fine, nothing in there got me excited but neither was I offended.

This was great, the addition of Young adds massively. Some great songs in terms of Helpless and Deja Vu. Overall solid.

Struggled with this one. Haven't gone for a one as there were some ok elements to it, but clutching at straws.

Solid album throughout. I would listen again and enjoy.

Kind of start out ok with the first song and I thought that maybe I could feel differently about British post-punk. That quickly faded.

I'm just girl wanting to have fun. Surprisingly enjoying with plenty of big hits.

Maybe I have had enough of Van Morrison. Didn't do too much for me but wasn't completely offended.

Still find the voice incredibly annoying, but this was solid outside of that.

I enjoyed this. Relaxing music while reviewing a report. Solid 3, possibly after reflection it may be upgraded.

I am very partial to 20 minute prog rock songs

There were some highlight (Pretzel Logic as the title song), however the rest was rather average from my perspective.

Generally enjoyed this. Some songs stronger than others and I liked the mix of genres in certain places.

Wonderful bit of music. Just a bit of good listening.

It was fine, some big hits but didn't get me too excited.

Never heard of Tracy Chapman, but I feel like I have heard some of these songs before. Anyway, I really enjoyed this.

Strong throughout. Really enjoyed this.

Too French for my liking

We have had some dreadful British post-punk lately. However I quite enjoyed this album.

It is a good, I like a bit of jazz. However, I struggled towards the end. 2 hours of jazz is too much jazz.

Finding this difficult to rate. There were songs I enjoyed in here and enjoyed the mix of R&B and soul elements. However there was also some pretentious rubbish in here. Tentative rating at 3.

It was ok. Enjoyed the first song and in particular the last song.

It was ok, no big hits on here. Park Life is better for sure. However a solid 3 (maybe I need to update Park Life on reflection).

When I saw this pop up I though "this will probably be rubbish". Turns out I quite liked this.

I really contemplated rating this a 1. It wasn't offensive, just offered very little value.

The first half is strong than the second, however overall a great listen. Some really good range within the album. The big hit of course Kashmir, but personnel favourite Trampled Under Foot and In My Time of Dying.

I struggled a bit with this one. Initially it was interesting but found it a drag.

Enjoying the funky tunes. Quite a good album.

Strong album with some good jazz vibes along with the rap. Enjoyed.

Many songs I have heard before but never knew it was Cat Stevens. A good listen

Solid album, nothing spectacular.

In my view one of the best hip-rap/rap artists around. This album is solid throughout and has a lot of range/influences (a lot of funk influences). Have listened before and will listen again.

Strong start and solid album.

enjoyed it, but dragged a bit.

One of the most relaxing commutes I have had in a while.

Quite boring. I struggled a bit to get through this but wasn't so offensive to get a 1.

A bit of relief after Syd Barrett. Maybe I am voting this higher as it was more uplifting, nevertheless I enjoyed the album.

Ok, it was 2 hours long but I really enjoyed it. I wasn't bored with the mix of genres.

Pretty bored. Didn't do too much for me outside the keyboard/piano on the 2rd/3rd song.

Very enjoyable. The highlight of course Hurt, but the album throughout is solid.

A relaxing listen. Definitely helped me focus on a Monday morning/drown out the office chatter.

Really enjoyed the bluesy guitar driven music on this. Currently a strong 4, might upgrade upon future listens.

Didn't do anything for me really. I wasn't offended, however there was nothing exciting in this and I don't understand out of all the very good music there has been recently that this would be on the list. Within the same genre there have been many very good albums that should be on the list ahead of this.

Rather dull/not for me.

Guess I like Johnny Cash. Enjoyed the comedic interludes as well.

Didn't enjoy the 28 songs in 40 odd minutes. What was there was ok, just didn't work as an album for me.

Solid album throughout with some big hits in Sabotage and Sure Shot. Really liked Futterman's Rule.

Nice mix of styles and good variety on her. An enjoyable listen and just about squeezes a 4 rating.

Nothing that really excited me here. It was ok and fine for some in the background.

An enjoyable album, a pleasant surprise.

Meh - didn't have any of the big hits that I know

Really enjoyed this. Heard a few of the songs before and the album works well together.

It was ok, there were a few good songs in there but the rest was a bit on the boring side.

Wasn't sure at the start with the intro discussions to each song. But this did grow on me over the album and raspy voice and jazzy tunes work for me.

Probably not best to listen to this just after Christmas. Nothing revolutionary here.

It was alright. Quite a few songs I liked, some filler in my view and a bit too much noise rock in a few songs. However overall a very strong 3.

Electric. If I was very drunk and in a club this would be highly rated for sure. It was ok and just about creeps a 3.

A bit crap. Not quite rubbish enough for a 1 as I wasn't offended by it.

Great commute album

It was ok, a few songs I quite liked but the rest was nothing spectacular

Very chilled music and it was ok. Again nothing amazing here.

None of the songs I have heard before. Strong album however.

Short and sweet. I enjoyed but not enough to go beyond a 3.

It was ok. Real promise with the first song, then a bit inconsistent.

It was good, maybe expected more and really there was only 1 big hit.

Rating is reflecting nostalgia. The first half is banging, drops off a little bit. Still going for a 5.

Nah. I wasn't offended, this however didn't do much for me.

I was bored.

Fuck this was a drain to listen to. Normally I don't give a 1 out but this deserves it.

Heroes as the title song did drag this album into an ok score. There were some highlights but a lot was very average.

Starting weird and I was thinking this could be a long listen, however really enjoyed it. Close to 4.

Very good. Highlights with Le Freak and I Want Your Love.

Very much enjoyed. Solid throughout.

A good run of music. Although I didn't know any of the songs on this album, it was a pleasant surprise.

Did not disappoint

It wasn't awful, but not something I would ever listen to again and at times a bit of a drag to get through.

Some very solid funk.

Pretty boring and a drag to get through.

It was ok. Generally enjoyed it and good background while working.

Good start but the rest was just ok/middle of the road music.

Middle of the road rock - bland

Solid 90s hip hop. Bring the noise is the highlight.

Long album, was unsure about this one but grew on me towards the end.

Song after song of excellence.

It was alright. The voice started annoying me towards the end however.

Very short but full of energy.

Such a smooth and soulful album

His voice sounded like he had a big muff over his mouth. Not bad however, enjoyed the album.

It was ok. Pale Blue Eyes as the highlight that helped it drag into a 3.

An enjoyable album for sure and good to expand the Dead Kennedys knowledge. Would listen again.

A solid album throughout with quite a few big hits. Enjoyable.

Bunch of songs I really enjoyed but some filler as well.

Very enjoyable and many songs I recognised. Just solid throughout.

This was good and songs I knew. Was quite close to a 4.

What an album. Highlights being Snowblind and Wheels of Confusion. But this is solid throughout. Easy 5 for me.

This was a tough listen. I think kind of liked the other Bjork album, this was not as good. Was tempted for a 1 but I wasn't truly offended by the album.

Middle of the road music. There were some songs I liked but nothing extraordinary here.

I enjoyed this one. It was a long one however and tailed off a bit towards the end, however I did enjoy it so will give it a 4.

Some solid jazzy tones

It was alright. Was getting a tad bored towards the end but it worked well as good background music while working.

Middle of the road music. 1 or 2 enjoyable songs.

I like Bruce Springsteen, but this album isn't the best. There are some really good songs in this, but the rest is a bit average/can be a bore. Possibly being generous with my rating.

The headline song is great, everything else is not so much.

I enjoyed it, good background music while pricing transfers.

Great start, very average afterwards.

Enjoyed the listen, recognised the big hits on the album. Calming and brings back memories.

Never know if I really like Tom Waits or find him really annoying. Mixed between both listening to this.

A solid album throughout. I think with the last CCR album I said something similar, so close to a 5 but for the moment it is a high 4. Maybe I revisit and change it in the future.

Had to do this in 3 sittings. Even if you compressed the better songs into a single album this would have still been poor. I guess this is more a novelty album. Wasn't awful to give it a 1, but the lowest of 2's.

Maybe slightly generous, but there is the nostalgia factor and there are quite a few bangers in here.

Listened to the one on Spotify and then looked at the review and they say it is a remake version. Listened on YouTube to the original, it is better for sure. Good background music.

Some big songs at the start - overall a strong 3.

I like Neil Young, but this album is not his best. There are some good songs in here however.

I enjoyed it. Not really my genre but it was a good listen throughout but nothing exceptional to push it up to a 4.

Of course he has turned into an abhorrent individual who suffer severe mental illness. Taking the pure artistic nature of the album, this is fantastic.

A solid album but lacking the big hits outside Higher Ground.

I really actually liked this. Never listened to PJ Harvey before and I know she has always been critically lauded. Guess there is a reason for that.

Not for me. I suppose there will be many that enjoy this and I can understand that give the stretching of genres, but found it a bit boring.

A fun album with some big hits

A bit boring.

Felt like a drag to get through - didn't do too much for me.

Banger after banger. After two meh albums it is good to have this come along.

It was ok - some solid songs on here but not sure why this would be a must listen

It was alright. Nothing special but

With all Tom Waits I am never sure, there is a lot I like and a lot which is weird.

A solid listen. Calming and made me want to light a massive blunt.

Very samesy across the album and didn't do too much for me.

I liked this. Not my usual genre however enjoyed throughout.

This was a great album. So much so I decided to listen to it twice yesterday.

An enjoyable listen with some highlights, but overall average.

It is ok, average Neil Young. There is better.

It was alright. I have listened to a bit of Wilco before and it is an ok listen but doesn't excite me.

I enjoyed the album, feel like the dream pop genre is becoming popular once more. Not enough to push to a 4.

A good solid album.

A few songs I really liked (and heard of before). Overall a good album but not something I will immediately be listening to again.

An enjoyable listen for sure. Would revisit.

Weird first song but got better from there.

I don't mind it. He has better.

Some good, stuff some meh. Not bad.

Indian Sunset is a banger of a song and starting off strong with Tiny Dancer. The rest was good.

Never heard of them and this was not great. On later research I found out Frank Zappa is involved. I quite like Frank Zappa, I however don't really like this.

An ok album. Good for the background.

Really enjoyed this. Some easy listening.

Similar to the last Nick Drake, I enjoyed it and a very strange 3, but not something I would revisit.

Pop with a bit of alt rock mixed in. It was ok but generic. Middle of the road.

Country is just not my thing.

Very much enjoyed. Some songs I know as well.

This was a drag to listen to

Needed to dig into YouTube to find the album. Some oddities in there but ok for the background. Nothing more than a 2.

Quite enjoyed this one. Better than the other Pixies album and a few more songs I recognised.

It was fine. There were a few nice songs but won't revisit the album.

Improvement on other British post punk we have had

A solid album - a good listen throughout

An enjoyable listen, can't go wrong with Stevie Wonder. Not as good as Innervisions that we had a few months back but still very good.

Difficult not to give this anything outside a 5. So many crackers in a single album.

It was alright I guess

A good listen on the commute. So big hits in terms of Little Wing and Spanish Castle Magic. The rest of the album was good but only for a 4.

Funky times.

Quite good, British punk is finally prevailing after some questionable choices on this list.

This album kept me flip flopping. First song, wasn't my cup of tea. Then it started getting better and I enjoyed and then back to weird. A 2 for now but maybe it would grow into a 3.

A few well known songs that were good, rest just a bit average.

Bit meh.

It was ok. Maybe slightly better than the other Common album that we have had but nothing to give it more than a 3.

It is fine. A couple of good tracks but the rest average. A bit like the other album.

Too many bangers in this album to give it anything less.

This is a very enjoyable listen, such a fun album to listen too. The lyrics a bit suspect but that is part of the joy. I might upgrade this to a 5 after a few more listens.

A good run of albums and some big songs on this album.

Solid throughout with cracking start and finish

Album was a bit mixed. However the first half was very good so drags this up to a 4 just about.

Solid album. Haven't listened to loads of Sepultura. Roots is the main album I have listened to before and this is a bit different but overall enjoyable.

A very enjoyable listen. I think strong throughout we a few big hits.

It was alright. Good background music while pricing transfers.

All round fantastic album. The hits are big and the rest of the album stands up well.

A bit annoying.

Enjoyable with the highlights of the Iron Man cover and their big hit. Nearly a 4 but not quite.

I listened to this album a lot back in the day and it is solid throughout.

There are some big hits on this and overall enjoyable, album as a whole average however.

Alright I guess. Nothing standout, few songs that I know but the rest of the album mid.

Excellent album. No dips and plenty of highs.

Some good old funk. None of the big hitters on this however so stuck with a 3.

Some middle of the road 60s rock

It is fine, didn't blow me away.

An enjoyable album, tempted with a 4, but I think that would have been generous.

A strong 4, throughout the album is solid with the obvious hits at the start and towards the end.

A fun little album.

Outside the one or two well know songs, the rest was quite average I would say.

It was fine, all fine for the background

Nothing really exciting here

A good listen with some good hits. Didn't deliver all the way through.

Some I liked others less so. But overall a good album from my perspective. Had to get the YouTube version up, seems like Spotify only had 5 songs of the album.

A few songs I like and the rest of the album pretty average. I don't think this is an album that I would revisit.

A solid album throughout. 3 massive hits, 3 secondary hits and the other 3 songs ok I would say. Still a 5.

A solid album with quite a few big hits in here. Not as complete as What's the Story Morning Glory and therefore a 4.

A bit boring.

Not quite as good as prior Echo and the Bunnymen but an ok listen.

Solid throughout. A few big hits in here. In between the two Bruce albums we have had so far.

Quite enjoyable listen from my side.

Maybe a tad better than the other album, but pretty average/nothing to give it more than a 3.

An enjoyable listen, some songs I quite liked. But nothing exceptional as a whole album.

It was alright, a strange one. Some parts i liked but other parts were just odd. Tempted to go down to a 2 but scraping a 3 for now.

This is an easy one to judge. Great throughout with the highlights of the big hits.

It was alright. It felt more modern than the year it was released.

A 4 given the bigger hits on the album that drags it up.

Not really sure about this one. Wouldn't revisit.

Absolute crap.

A simple method of addictive riffs and simple repetitive lyrics. Very effective.

It was ok, some fun songs in there.

A tough listen. I can understand why this would be on the list, but not really something I would want to listen to.

Ok album. A few highlights in there.

Average, an ok listen.

Quite a drag. Nearly a 1 but felt that would have been a tad harsh.

It was ok. Progressively got weirder.

Very good album. Highlights in Sour Times and Glory Box, the rest also strong.

It was ok. The weird twist was interesting for sure.

I actually quite enjoyed this

What can I say, I like Led Zep. First half stronger than the second but still great throughout.

A fun album, so good songs and a solid 3.

It was quite boring. Once he opened his mouth it got immediately worse.

I gave the other album a 3, but this felt like more of a drag. Maybe I was having a good day last time.

Just what I needed to get through my timesheet entry on a Friday

A bit dated but it is a fun album for sure

Preferred the other album to this one. There were some good songs in here and Maps is the one I have listened to before a fair few times. Overall, only ok.

This was probably the worst of the three albums, it was fine however and just about scrapes a 3.

It is a good listen, but after more than 3 hours you feel drained and bit bored by the end.

The album was listened to a lot back in the day. For me it is a banger of an album (probably not for most). Many great songs on this.

Had a good variety to it and I enjoyed it. Won't be reached out to listen to it again anytime soon however.

First two songs are strong, the rest is ok.

I was rather bored by it.

An odd one, started well, then a few strange songs. Overall ok.

A solid album throughout. Some good funky hits.

It was good, some big hits for sure. Not quite a 5.

Pretty boring.

Guess I am a fanboy

Some good songs. Title track and Fame are very good, the rest pretty average.

Another one that is just fine. A few good songs in there like Deacon Blues and Peg.

It is ok, enjoyable background listen.

It was fine, nothing more

A solid album with some highlights in Down by the River and Cowgirl in the Sand.

Rather bland

Solid German electronic music

Very good. Cracking first two songs.

I was bored

Don't really know what to make out of this. Possibly my lack of culture, but I didn't really enjoy it that much. Wasn't bad, just felt like a bit of a drag.

A strange album, kind of liked it

There are some really good songs on here, but overall it is on the boring side. With or Without you drags it to a 3.

It was ok, nothing special. Covers were fine.

Not quite for me

A solid effort, was expecting a bit more

Didn't do too much for me.

It was alright - a few songs I like and the rest very middle of the road

An ok record. Was tempted to drop it to a 2 but there was just about enough in this.

Pretty strong throughout. The hits are pretty big in here and there is a good level of funk. Tempted for a 5 but I think a 4 is probably a fair reflection. I think something like By The Way would get a 5.

Bit depressing

Odd album. Wasn't anything I was too interested in but not completely offended.

I quite enjoyed it. Last few songs were a bit more bluesy. Solid 3.

Not bad at all

Light and breezy

I guess this is alright

Two cracking songs, the rest solid. A very strong 4.

A solid album. Good start and trailed off a little bit.

Bit boring

Enjoyed it, but mainly his hits rather than the complete album.

Filled a hole.

It was alright, nothing too special here

A lot of mid albums currently. This is ok, but nothing exciting.

A jazzy delight

Surprising album, not sure about the lead singer but the level sax and the occasional heavy instrumentals made this enjoyable.

A bit of an odd album. There were snippets that I liked but then just bits that felt out of place.

It is alright, there are a few big hits in here. The rest of the album average or not to my taste.

It was good, but I did start losing interest towards the end.

It was fine. Love Removal Machine the song most of note. The remainder was ok.

Wasn't something I would listen again to.

Kind of liked it. Maybe need another listen.

A bit boring after a while.

Enjoyed generally. Passin' Me By, very good.

It was fine, jazz is ok.

This was shite. Depressing and the last song was absolutely dire. I don't see the appeal of Nick Cave.

The lyrics and music are quite wanky. I wasn't absolutely offended to give it a 1, but it was very close.

Maybe because we have had a run of absolute crap or the fact that this is just a very good album, it deserves a 5. Banger after banger on this album.

I just don't like Coldplay. I know, it is popular to bash on them but I just don't like it.

Bit meh, it was alright in moments but didn't inspire anything

I guess I really like The Rolling Stones. After two disappointing albums I needed this.

I know this won't be a popular review, I like Neil Young. This is better than some of the other albums we have had.

It was alright. I enjoyed most of it. Prefer The Smiths to his solo stuff.
