Arrival

ABBA

4/5

Great pop music. Helped by the fact that I knew all of the singles. 3.5/10

If You Can Believe Your Eyes & Ears

The Mamas & The Papas

4/5

London Calling

The Clash

4/5

I’ve never listened to this through before, but very familiar with many of the songs. Great singles, feels bloated on first listen, however I imagine it will massively grow on me

Grace

Jeff Buckley

4/5

Great album , loved it when I was younger. Lilac wine is a banger. Very French feeling

A Girl Called Dusty

Dusty Springfield

5/5

Brilliant record, my favourite so far. Once again I’ve heard most of these songs but not in this order, I wasn’t aware of how stacked with hits this is.

The Slider

T. Rex

3/5

Good album, will likely grow on me, but didn’t massively click on first listen though I can tell it’s a classic.

Pink Moon

Nick Drake

5/5

One of my favourite albums, yet some how my least favourite Nick drake album. Unbelievably good singer songwriter.

Bryter Layter

Nick Drake

5/5

My favourite Nick Drake record, a masterpiece.

Suede

5/5

Brilliant. Hadn’t listened to this in at least 15 years, fantastic record

Ágætis Byrjun

Sigur Rós

4/5

Very beautiful strings. I have always loved staralfur (life aquatic soundtrack), very reminiscent of Talk Talk at times. Good album

Blonde On Blonde

Bob Dylan

5/5

One of my favourite albums ever

The Score

Fugees

3/5

Great record, some top singles

Songs From A Room

Leonard Cohen

3/5

Will have to come back to at some point. I loved the baroch aspects and will probably enjoy the album more as it grows on me. I love Cohen’s barritone

Idlewild

Everything But The Girl

3/5

Beggars Banquet

The Rolling Stones

4/5

Love this. Listened to my vinyl copy, but the band seems to be wearing out, strange to hear this much slowet

Low

David Bowie

5/5

Amazing, Berlin trilogy are my favourite Bowie records

Parklife

Blur

5/5

Brilliant album, haven’t listened to in years. Having previously been considered one of their weaker records I think it’s rightfully being reappraised as a masterpiece

In Our Heads

Hot Chip

3/5

Alright, though not one of their better records on first listen

The Queen Is Dead

The Smiths

5/5

Great album, second to meat is murder only as far as I’m concerned

Le Tigre

4/5

I love this album. Need to listen to more riot girl (sp?), though I reckon this is the pinnacle of the genre.

Franz Ferdinand

5/5

A great album. Good memories of seeing them before it came out, one of the better post punk revival bands.

3 Feet High and Rising

De La Soul

3/5

My Generation

The Who

3/5

Histoire De Melody Nelson

Serge Gainsbourg

5/5

Amazing. Also melody is from Sunderland which is a great fact. One of my favourite albums

Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots

The Flaming Lips

4/5

Really good. I’ve only ever heard the singles from this album, will need to listen to the soft bulletin next.

Isn't Anything

My Bloody Valentine

5/5

Amazing album, I can imagine it was a revelation at the time, unlike anything before it. Overlooked in the shadow of loveless and mbv but such a brilliant debut.

Tusk

Fleetwood Mac

4/5

Really good album. I was only familiar with the title track before hand but really enjoyed it, stand out track was Sarah. Very dense record, will need multiple listens

Immigrés

Youssou N'Dour

4/5

Brilliant. Need to expand my knowledge of west African pop. I love Fela and Songhuy Blues but there must be so much more out there. Interesting vocals, almost like the call to prayer or something, sets it apart from Nigerian music
