First track takes you right back to watching Vikings. Great mood and theme throughout.

5/5

Exactly what I came to discover here.

My Aim Is True

Elvis Costello

3/5

Aqualung

Jethro Tull

5/5

Excellent find. Folk rock with a British bent. Wimpy bars, snot and cups of tea.

Peter Gabriel 3

Peter Gabriel

3/5

Meh... early Eighties synthetic rock... heavy drum fetish.

The Velvet Underground & Nico

The Velvet Underground

4/5

Very good vibes. Apocalypse now type atmosphere.

It's Too Late to Stop Now

Van Morrison

3/5

Live recording of VM in concert. Good beat, but rather samey

Madman Across The Water

Elton John

2/5

A bit musical theatre for my taste. Cultural misappropriation in the middle with the Iroquois was rather ironically good.

A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector

Various Artists

4/5

Pet Sounds

The Beach Boys

3/5

Actually quite melancholic in places.

Hounds Of Love

Kate Bush

4/5

Heard it already. Awesome.

The Chronic

Dr. Dre

2/5

Pitches and Hos y'know. GTA San Andrea's almost to an explicit pastiche. Rather gratuitous for my liking, being back the DAISY age.

The Queen Is Dead

The Smiths

3/5

Lyrics are something else. The sound though very much what you would expeft

A Nod Is As Good As A Wink To A Blind Horse

Faces

2/5

Rod Stewart lead singer... very Rod Stewart. Meh.

My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts

Brian Eno

3/5

Quite a conceptual adventure. Flag for re listen. Some good influences on eg Public Service Broadcasting.

Cypress Hill

3/5

Much better than Dr Dre in the same genre. Has a real fell that is unmistakably Cypress Hill you'll.

OK Computer

Radiohead

4/5

Holds together well. Sombre, thoughtful but not overly morose. Some Velvet underground influences with careful use of xylehlphone.

Hejira

Joni Mitchell

3/5

Some gems no doubt, but doesn't hold together as an album as well as was hoping. Some over synthetic guitar takes away from the definitive Joni sound. Lyrics are killer though... from the forceps to the stone etc...
