In Utero by Nirvana
Sep 16 2025

Classic. Listening for long time

Illmatic by Nas
Sep 17 2025

Can see why it's well thought of, good flows and production. Certainly of its time. Not really my jam, though.

Surf's Up by The Beach Boys
Sep 18 2025

decent. not typical beach boys, but elements - harmonising etc. not favourite album of theirs

In Rainbows by Radiohead
Sep 22 2025

lush and intimate recording, but also claustrophobic at times - not in a bad way

Dookie by Green Day
Sep 23 2025

even though i have a soft spot for this sort of thing (prefer weezer though) i can't help but feel the album is very samey. i don't wan to say derivative, but most of the songs do sound very similar

A Wizard, A True Star by Todd Rundgren
Sep 26 2025

Very much psychedelic 70s rock. Not for me and couldn't finish listening to the album.

White Blood Cells by The White Stripes
Sep 29 2025

I am aware of, but have not been the biggest fan of, the White Stripes. They have some absolute bangers (the popular songs), but not many are on this album. However, this does contain the amazing and fantastic We’re Going to Be Friends, so gets an extra star from me.

Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere by Neil Young & Crazy Horse
Sep 30 2025

It's fine. Honestly, it sounds like fairly generic 60s/70s rock and I can't see what the fuss is about

Green River by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Oct 02 2025

A good album, you can hear the influences - rock, blues, country. It was an interesting listen, but I can't say I'll return to it on my own.

Yeezus by Kanye West
Oct 03 2025

Very inventive, if a little haphazard

Green Onions by Booker T. & The MG's
Oct 21 2025

Was fine I suppose. Was already familiar with the title track, and the rest of the album was more of the same. If anything, it was unexpectedly jollier. Can hear the influence this era of American music had on contemporary Jamaican music, particularly organ-heavy music from Lee Perry (Scratch the Upsetter Again etc)

Tusk by Fleetwood Mac
Oct 23 2025

Boring

Chirping Crickets by Buddy Holly & The Crickets
Oct 24 2025

Some absolute classics. Evokes an image of a particular time and place

Either Or by Elliott Smith
Oct 27 2025

Very mid-90s, slacker movie soundtrack. Not bad and will listen to more by Elliott Smith

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Oct 28 2025

Nicely recorded and well performed but, for me, it's standard hippy fare that doesn't stand out. Yes, the you can hear the intricacies in the playing and vocal harmonies but the songs don't appeal.

Goodbye And Hello by Tim Buckley
Nov 10 2025

Pleasant enough, but generic hippy music
