The Black Saint And The Sinner Lady

4/5

One second you’re enjoying a sophisticated manhattan whilst chatting up someone at the bar. The next, running from the mob through back alleys in a foreign country. Romanic, chaotic and so much tension

What a debut…

Marquee Moon

Television

5/5

10/10 Truly hard to fathom that the influence this had on modern rock music… Started recollected records this year and this was one of my first purchases. A masterclass for art-punk and the nyc guitar scene. Top tracks: Venus Marquee Moon Elevation

Licensed To Ill

Beastie Boys

3/5

One big joke that didn’t age particularly well. Fun along the way and captures the mood - feels like a soundtrack album for 80s New York

Guitar Town

Steve Earle

You know what, I don’t hate it…?

Stardust

Willie Nelson

4/5

Covers for your mothers. Very pleasant listening!

Fulfillingness' First Finale

Stevie Wonder

4/5

Funky, groovy, joyful. Nothing standing out but all really smooth

The Band

4/5

Pack the bags, cigarettes and hard liquor, it’s time for a good old fashioned road trip across the midwest. Fave tracks: The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, Jawbone & The Unfaithful Servant

Rain Dogs

Tom Waits

Safe As Milk

Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band

3/5

You see beef, you know it’s going to be weird

Vauxhall And I

Morrissey

1/5

I’d rather shop at Morrisions than listen to this shit again

John Barleycorn Must Die

Traffic

3/5

Yeah it’s good

What's That Noise?

Coldcut

2/5

Seems like a pretty weak inclusion overall. Sure, you could call it the inception album for the cold cut/ ninja tune legacy… enjoyable though

Blonde On Blonde

Bob Dylan

4/5

4/5 Not my fave Dylan, but still goes. Fave track: stuck inside with the Memphis blues again

Phrenology

The Roots

3/5

Experimental, groovy and unexpectedly heavier in parts Fave tracks: the seed 2.0 & rhymes and ammo

Transformer

Lou Reed

Harry, mark and john

Achtung Baby

3/5

Unsurprisingly not very satisfying and a bit same same.

Kollaps

Einstürzende Neubauten

1/5

Wasn’t sure if noise cancelling was broken in the middle of London. Lots of scattered ‘ideas’… maybe. A tough listen at 8am.

Doggystyle

Snoop Dogg

2/5

Crazy to go from this to menulog ads. Hasn’t aged well.. beats are good if you can get past everything else

L'Eau Rouge

The Young Gods

1/5

Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should. It’s just not good, is it?!

The Fat Of The Land

The Prodigy

4/5

Any day of the week

Bringing It All Back Home

Bob Dylan

4/5

Blob Dylan brings it all back home

Darkness on the Edge of Town

Bruce Springsteen

3/5

There’s parts of this I really like, and others I don’t care much for at all - maybe even give me the ick… I can see why it appealed so much to a certain demographic. Kinda cool the first track (after watching the TM movie of the same title) came to inspire Nebraska Fave tracks: Badlands, Something in the Night & Prove It All Night

At Mister Kelly's

Sarah Vaughan

4/5

Live albums are always a funny one. Is it the recording itself, the string songs or significance of that performance.. and on a personal level, how much do you resonate with the songs and how does it differ to the studio cut. I’m not sure this has any of those things specifically, yet there’s definitely some magic here and beautiful vocals. A very relaxing morning listen.

Duck Stab/Buster & Glen

The Residents

3/5

Listened to this half asleep on a flight to Germany (not Constantinople) and it genuinely frightened me a bit. An experimental string of stream-of-concious tracks of someone undergoing a drug psychosis. Can imagine it influenced bands like King Gizz, Thee Ohh Sees, Ariel Pink, Deerhunter etc. Think the B-Sides are better and enjoyed getting electrocuted at the end. Fave tracks: Semolina, Weight-lifting Lulu

Sunday At The Village Vanguard

Bill Evans Trio

3/5

Lovely stuff

Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)
