I didn't realise there were so many bangers on here. I particularly liked the second song, Welcome to the Occupation

Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music

Ray Charles

5/5

This is just brilliant. Ray is the master. Not a genre I am really into but the man just knows how to make great music and gets me in my soul

Horses

Patti Smith

5/5

This is just brilliant. Reminded me of PJ Harvey so very much up my street. The standout track for me was Free Money which I think reminded me of a PJ Harvey/Kate Bush infusion which is just great

Colour By Numbers

Culture Club

3/5

Some good hits but not sure why it is on this list to be honest

A Short Album About Love

The Divine Comedy

4/5

This is a grower. A couple of listens in and I got it. Would like to listen to more of them

You Want It Darker

Leonard Cohen

5/5

What an opener! What a voice. Brilliant

John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band

John Lennon

4/5

great song writing.

Fetch The Bolt Cutters

Fiona Apple

4/5

Ambient 1/Music For Airports

Brian Eno

3/5

It must have something about it to be on this list but for me, it was background music. Didn't make me feel anything and was very forgettable. Perhaps you had to be there when it was released

Melodrama

Lorde

4/5

I listened to this album when it was released. It is good, but not quite great. I really like her voice and the variety of songs on this album though

Music for the Masses

Depeche Mode

3/5

I like Depeche Mode but I think, listening to this album, I'm maybe more of a Greatest Hits kind of guy

Boy In Da Corner

Dizzee Rascal

2/5

mainly noise

A Rush Of Blood To The Head

Coldplay

3/5

Manassas

Stephen Stills

not heard of this guy before. It was ok. I was pretty indifferent

Who's Next

The Who

5/5

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road

Elton John

5/5

Ellington at Newport

Duke Ellington

3/5

Jazz isn't really my thing but I thought this was quite good. I just don't have an appreciation of the subtleties that no doubt make this a classic

The xx

4/5

Exit Planet Dust

2/5

Time (The Revelator)

4/5

It's Too Late to Stop Now

Van Morrison

3/5

Suede

3/5

Seemed to be well received back in the day, but with the exception of the singles, I thought it was pretty average looking at it through a modern lense

Marquee Moon

Television

5/5

Rock 'N Soul

Solomon Burke

4/5

Not heard of this before but a very solid album

Queen II

Queen

3/5

No really show stoppers on this

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill

Lauryn Hill

5/5

E.V.O.L.

Sonic Youth

3/5

First time listening to Sonic Youth. High hopes based on the first track but then became quite average. I expect I might like some of this band's later works

Hard Again

Muddy Waters

4/5

Highway to Hell

AC/DC

3/5

Can't get over the boys voice. Like a parody of what a rock singer should sound like. Great hooks but overrated

There's A Riot Goin' On

Sly & The Family Stone

3/5

Francis Albert Sinatra & Antonio Carlos Jobim

Frank Sinatra
