Parklife

Blur

5/5

Basically a punk record put through a charming, British filter. On paper it could be awful but albarn and co created something distinctive, cohesive and at times hilarious. For me the pinnacle of Britpop. Girls and boys is timeless, this is a low is a lesser known masterpiece.

Surrealistic Pillow

Jefferson Airplane

3/5

The hits hold up amazingly well but some filler on this. Good listen overall

Endtroducing.....

DJ Shadow

2/5

The first main song and the last song hold up well but there is lots of uninteresting long tracks that go nowhere, slowly.

Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs

Derek & The Dominos

3/5

Funeral

Arcade Fire

4/5

Amazing album about death and growing up. So much feeling here and ridiculous highs like wake up. Very high 4, just has always had a couple of skips for me.

Third/Sister Lovers

Big Star

1/5

Very uninteresting album - couldn't tell you what a single song sounds like. In terms of musicianship I've heard better pub bands.

Live At The Regal

B.B. King

Bandwagonesque

It's good, benefits from a second listen. The production and mix let's it down big time. Vocals are very tame.

3/5

Some very big highs on this (common people, disco 2000, underwear) but can't say the perverted songs work for me. Aware he's doing a bit but they're not great

3/5

Alright, the songs are so short that the bad ones leave quickly but the good ones are also by in a flash. Not sure why they made it so long, the diversity of the songs (or lack of) does not warrant 40+ tracks

1/5

I like Madonna but this album is not it. Some of the songs have awful lyrics and some of the performances are genuinely annoying, especially the painful whisper lyrics. 'what it feels to be a girl's was only okay track. The American pie cover confirmed the 1. Jesus Christ it's bad
