A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector

All Ratings

Real Life

Magazine

3/5

Like it, can't see me relistening often. But glad it found me.

3 Feet High and Rising

De La Soul

4/5

Common

3/5

Smooth listen, very Kanye coded. Has made me curious enough to search out older Common albums to see if there's a difference.

Let's Get It On

Marvin Gaye

4/5

Love this album. Great voice, vibes and mood.

The ArchAndroid

Janelle Monáe

4/5

Loved this album. Blending of sounds into evocative sounds escapes, great vocals and samples. Relaxing upbeat vibes.

Superfly

Curtis Mayfield

5/5

I am already a Mayfield fan. I love this album. It's fabulous.

This Is Fats Domino

Fats Domino

4/5

New Orleans Rhythm and Blues. Great Saturday afternoon listen. Makes me want to swing my hips and click my fingers. Great drums.

At San Quentin

Johnny Cash

4/5

Lots of energy and atmosphere. Classic album.

Station To Station

David Bowie

3/5

Stay, wild is the wind and changes are my standout tracks. The rest of the album is a bit too honky tonk for me.

Document

R.E.M.

4/5

80s take on mediaeval political troubadour type songs. Love Michael Stipes voice. The one I love is a outstanding track. Lightnin' Hopkins is a great song. I think I'm a sucker for group whoahs in songs.

Music in Exile

Songhoy Blues

4/5

This is right up my alley. Love the beats and vocals. Made me dance. Wish I could find translations of the lyrics. Will continue trying. So good I listened to it twice.

Bat Out Of Hell

Meat Loaf

4/5

It reminds me too much of my Mum to listen to this. I know it's a good album as I've heard it before but I can't listen again yet.

Moon Safari

Air

4/5

I like this as background music. Non demanding and dances around your ears. I had forgotten I had heard this album many times in the 90s, didn't expect to know so many of the tracks.

Ramones

3/5

It's a punchy classic album. A great for boosting energy.

Ready To Die

The Notorious B.I.G.

3/5

First time listening to this album. Never a fan of skits between songs but listen first go round. Bragging about how good you are at sexing up the ladies is my not jam if the tracks don't feel solid. Respect is fun as it features Diana King, I love her voice. Biggie sounds more camp sometimes than I'd imagined. ***

Cheap Thrills

Big Brother & The Holding Company

3/5

Cover art was a shit choice for sure. Joplins voice is amazing. The cover versions are interesting. A fun listen

I Am a Bird Now

Antony and the Johnsons

4/5

This album is a mood. Loved it when I first heard it in 2006ish. Still love it. Vocals are stunning and the arrangements evocative.

A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector

Various Artists

4/5

Anytime I hear a track from this album it makes me feel Christmassy. It's a beautiful soundscape that is the music essence of Christmas.

Metallica

4/5

This is the first time listening to an entire Metallica album. I like this album and some of these songs are classics.

London Calling

The Clash

4/5

Love this album. Now classic songs that are a treat for my ears.
