I wish I could give this a negative number. I’d rather listen to myself getting eaten by lions.

All time great album, still a great listen.

Tea for the Tillerman

Cat Stevens

3/5

I’d heard the hits from this album before, and they were just as good as I’d remembered. I now see why they are the only ones I knew.

Music for the Masses

Depeche Mode

3/5

Very nice background music but nothing really grabbed me.

Tanto Tempo

Bebel Gilberto

Cross

Justice

2/5

Really rather disliked this. Couple songs got me moving a bit, but overall not my Jamboree.

Marty Robbins

Come Away With Me

Norah Jones

5/5

I hadn’t heard this since I was like 12. Wow it knocked me off my feet. Amazing music to drive around to at night.

Ragged Glory

Neil Young & Crazy Horse

3/5

It’s fine. I have no idea how this made it, and I’m a huge Neil Young fan. Certainly a lesser effort by him, but it’s fine.

Surf's Up

The Beach Boys

5/5

Arthur (Or the Decline and Fall of the British Empire)

The Kinks

It’s an album lacking in confidence. A lot of nice moments buried under way too much fluff.

Fear Of A Black Planet

Public Enemy

5/5

Here Come The Warm Jets

Brian Eno

3/5

Led Zeppelin

2/5

Never been a fan of Led Zeppelin. Can’t give it more than a 2, because it’s obviously not horrible but I don’t care for it.

Your Arsenal

Morrissey

Morrissey is a ghoul but his music also touches my soul like no one else.

Drags a bit in the middle, but really good overall.

Hail To the Thief

Radiohead

4/5

Grew up on this one. Some of their highest highs, but the section between There, There and Wolf at the Door kinda drags more than I remembered.

Rust Never Sleeps

Neil Young & Crazy Horse

Exit Planet Dust

The Chemical Brothers

1/5

I understand their importance as producers, but I couldn’t finish this.

Master Of Puppets

Metallica

The United States Of America

1/5

I respect the hell out of this album. I’m glad it exists. It caused me physical pain to listen to it though and I couldn’t recommend it to anyone.

The Queen Is Dead

The Smiths

5/5

One of my all time favorite albums. Hits every emotion perfectly. Sad, funny, angry, the best.

I Should Coco

Supergrass

5/5

Brand new to me. I got this, saw the nightmare fuel cover and had LOW expectations. Instead I got surf music that went through a lawnmower. Incredible stuff.
