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

Your Arsenal

Morrissey

3/5

Never going to be as good as the smiths, but a good record nonetheless the less

Cloud Nine

The Temptations

3/5

Really lovely harmonies, great version of heard it through the grapevine
