Rip It Up

Orange Juice

3/5

Couple of absolute bangers on here obviously, and was pleasantly surprised by the African influences! Also didn't realise it was Edwyn Collins?? Learn something new every day.

Dookie

Green Day

2/5

Not my jam

Ellington at Newport

Duke Ellington

4/5

(What's The Story) Morning Glory

Oasis

4/5

I'm a Definitely Maybe apologist, and I've heard Wonderwall enough times to last a lifetime, but I do appreciate the evolution and maturation that you can see Oasis went through in the writing/recording of this album

Urban Hymns

The Verve

4/5

Soooooooooooooooooo good. Reminds me badly of being 16.

The Man Machine

Kraftwerk

3/5

It's getting 3 stars purely because I love Numan, Ultravox, Visage etc. etc. but I am glad this is a short album. The Model hits every time though, and I can really appreciate how mad this album must've sounded in 1978

Boston

3/5

Look it starts with a bloody banger but it's a bit 80s cheese for me

Homework

Daft Punk

2/5

Vespertine

Björk

1/5

Not for me

Talking Heads 77

Talking Heads

4/5

Yummy stuff. One of the all-time faves. 6th form drives in Fernando with Hope vibes.

Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs

Derek & The Dominos

2/5

Layla is a tuneeee but doesn't negate from the fact Clapton is a racist and the rest of this album is quite shite

MTV Unplugged In New York

Nirvana

4/5

Considering how long I've lauded Nirvana as the most overrated band of all time, I surprisingly enjoyed this.

Blur

2/5

Oasis till a die

Nevermind

Nirvana

3/5

This Is Fats Domino

Fats Domino

4/5

Obviously a very important album if we're talking in terms of groundbreaking influence across genres - I quite enjoyed it

Mama Said Knock You Out

LL Cool J

4/5

LADIES LOVE COOL J

Siembra

Willie Colón & Rubén Blades

3/5

Ehhhhh. I want a margarita now but that might just be because it's mid December and I'm craving summer.

A Girl Called Dusty

Dusty Springfield

3/5

Feels a bit odd that an album of covers would make it onto the list but Dusty's voice is one of my favourites and there are some absolute belters on here (You Don't Own Me)

Highway 61 Revisited

Bob Dylan

3/5

Don't mind it at all! Liked the literary references and I can appreciate it's a good album but it's a bit too Bob Dylan for me - I'm a Cash girl at heart

Da Capo

Love

4/5

Actually really enjoyed this - and controversially I think the second side (the 19 minute song) is the best bit of the whole album!! Pure 60s psych madness. Me and dad give it a thumbs up

The Village Green Preservation Society

The Kinks

4/5

Love love love. Such a nice wee listen, easy catchy songs.

After The Gold Rush

Neil Young

2/5

Really enjoyed the opening track. The title track's falsetto is quite grating. Only Love Can Break Your Heart is far superior when Saint Etienne are singing it. Got a bit bored.

I Should Coco

Supergrass

4/5

Double Nickels On The Dime

Minutemen

2/5

A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector

Various Artists

5/5

Born To Run

Bruce Springsteen

3/5
