Buena Vista Social Club

5/5

I already know this one well. 5/5 no need to listen but I will

Dummy

Portishead

5/5

Stone cold classic. Mesmerising jazzy guitar, electro beeps and squeals, hypnotic rhythms and plaintive vocals. Not sure how it’s not better known

Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not

Arctic Monkeys

5/5

Another absolute stormer of a debut. I actually saw them in Barcelona in 2006 when they were touring this. “Electric” doesn’t come close to describing the live experience but it was very representative of the album - it crackles with youthful energy but they sound so tight at the same time. Like everyone I have favourites ( Maddy bum, a certain romance) but there are really any weak notes and you’re carried along on a wave of energy from start to finish. Who the fuck are the arctic monkeys anyway?

Californication

Red Hot Chili Peppers
