Moments of greatness and …filler.

Mama Said Knock You Out by LL Cool J

Nothing ground breaking but nice and breezy

1984 by Van Halen

Blood On The Tracks by Bob Dylan

One of his strongest both in terms of songwriting and sound

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

I like Tom Petty but this derivative and flat

Frank by Amy Winehouse

Ersatz jazz and delivery lacking any subtlety- 1001 albums to avoid anyone?

Metallica by Metallica

Slick, overproduced, glorious. Best sell out album ever?

Stardust by Willie Nelson

The Yes Album by Yes

Power In Numbers by Jurassic 5

Didn’t even know about this collective. Loved the production, the samples and the genuine love for life that comes out of these tracks!

Daydream Nation by Sonic Youth

Dense, difficult but also glorious. This is Sonic Youth’s ultimate statement.

Younger Than Yesterday by The Byrds

Ten by Pearl Jam

Hated it when growing up (was on the Nirvana camp). But it’s a good rock record with an excellent singer

Roots by Sepultura

The Notorious Byrd Brothers by The Byrds

At Mister Kelly's by Sarah Vaughan

We Are Family by Sister Sledge

Maybe the best « chic » record

Ace of Spades by Motörhead

Only knew (and loved) the title track. But the whole record is pure dynamite!

Document by R.E.M.

Two of their best songs but lots of filler as well

Garbage by Garbage

Didn’t like this when it came out. Hasn’t aged well

Fun House by The Stooges

I was respecting Stooges from afar but never actually listened to any of their records. This was a pleasant surprise: raw, unhinged and powerful.

...Baby One More Time by Britney Spears

Myths Of The Near Future by Klaxons

Generic Indy

Violator by Depeche Mode

Their most commercial work so far turned out to also be their best. Production is warmer and the record has some of their strongest songs ‘Personal Jesus’, ‘Enjoy the silence’, ‘Policy of truth’

Two Dancers by Wild Beasts

The androgynous vocals give this record an edge. There is also ambition in the compositions but the music is very much of this era.

Beauty And The Beat by The Go-Go's

Historical significance but thin as a record.
