Popular Reviews

Scream, Dracula, Scream by Rocket From The Crypt

I have not thought about this band since they has a few songs on the alternative rock station for a few weeks in 1995. Totally forgettable, mediocre, and needlessly loud.

Madman Across The Water by Elton John
Sep 23 2025

Tiny Dancer is a banger. The rest of the album is meh. Sound like Bsides to better Elton John songs. Not on Rolling Stones 500 best album list 2/5

Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & The Holding Company
Sep 24 2025

Rolling Stone list 372 ‘Piece of my heart’ is great as is the Robert Crumb designed album cover and of course Janis Joplin’s pipes. BUt the album as a whole and most of the songs are not really my jam. Disappointed by the gover of the Gershwin classic ‘Summertime’.

OK Computer by Radiohead
Sep 25 2025

Rolling stone top 500 - 42 I remember when this first came out I and everyone else thought it was on of the defining and best albums of the era. Hearing over 25 plus year later it does not hold help fantastically. A bit much.

Moondance by Van Morrison
Sep 27 2025

Rolling Stone list 120 The most Van Morrison of Van Morrison’s albums. The song ‘Everyone’ is a banger and there is no real filler. A solid album but not quite legendary.

The Beach Boys Today! by The Beach Boys
Sep 28 2025

Rolling Stone 466 The first half of this album is peak Beach Boys the beginning of their more ‘interesting’ period. The second half more mellow and slow dancey really lags and all kind of sounds the same.

The Hissing Of Summer Lawns by Joni Mitchell
Sep 29 2025

Rolling Stone 258 A good Joni Mitchell album but as a whole a minor work, not very memorable moments or songs.

Out Of The Blue by Electric Light Orchestra
Sep 30 2025

I don’t know. ELO have kind of an interesting sound and there is nothing wrong with this album but it all just seems rather empty and forgettable. Haven’t thought about them since I finished the Blum 20 minutes ago.

Water From An Ancient Well by Abdullah Ibrahim
Oct 01 2025

A perfectly fine smooth jazz album. Nothing special but good for background music at a dinner party or other such thing.

Scream, Dracula, Scream by Rocket From The Crypt
Oct 02 2025

I have not thought about this band since they has a few songs on the alternative rock station for a few weeks in 1995. Totally forgettable, mediocre, and needlessly loud.

After The Gold Rush by Neil Young
Oct 04 2025

Rolling stone 500 albums -90 One of the most Neil Young of Neil Yooung’s albums. No filler and some great songs. No notes.

The Rise & Fall by Madness
Oct 06 2025

Why I decided to do this list. All I knew was the song ‘Our House’. This is a really banger of an album and is a good mix of ska and 80s pop. Worth checking out and relistening.

Oct 08 2025

A good meaty folk album. Bragg has always been on my radar but I was surprised with the songwriting quality. Not as political as I thought it would be. Not sure why other reviews are complaining about the vocals. Sound fine to me.

Blackstar by David Bowie
Oct 09 2025

When this came out I as well as everyone else thought this Bowie swan song was one of his best albums. But with time and the veneer of sentimentality wearing of this is not a great album. The weakest part is Bowie’s vocals which really hinder many of the songs.

Sea Change by Beck

A fantastic thumbsucking/breakup album. Really mellow but Becks sad vocals and catchy melodies make this really something unique.
