Fun… but loads of nonsense mixed in

american dream

LCD Soundsystem

4/5

Enjoyed this more than the other 2 albums of theirs I’ve listened to. Last track drags big time though.

Here Come The Warm Jets

Brian Eno

2/5

First song was alright, 2 and 3 made me feel a bit ill. Cindy Tells Me had a nice bit of Bowie going on. Then Driving Me Backwards upset me again. Enjoyed the title track.

The Hangman's Beautiful Daughter

The Incredible String Band

2/5

The vocals become very grating after the 18th minute of cellular song and there is no respite following that. The wailing on swift as the wind sounds like he’s trying to wake up from the nightmare that is this album. First song is alright. They can thank me for the 2 stars.

Mothership Connection

Parliament

5/5

P-funk, uncut funk, the bomb. This is a certified classic.

Live At The Harlem Square Club

Sam Cooke

4/5

This is what live albums should be about. Puts you right there in the room with him. If I could give it 4.5 I would.

The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars

David Bowie

5/5

Perfect album

Water From An Ancient Well

Abdullah Ibrahim

3/5

As far as Jazz records go, this is certainly one of them. Pleasant background music.

Spiderland

Slint

3/5

Didn’t mind it, can imagine enjoying it more on repeat listens. Last song is the one for me.

Buena Vista Social Club

3/5

Pleasant enough, and I’m sure it would be lovely playing in the background with a ropa vieja cooking away, but I found myself getting bored quite early on.

Melodrama

Lorde

4/5

Easily Lorde’s best work. Very cohesive pop record which doesn’t over stay its welcome.

You Want It Darker

Leonard Cohen

3/5

Feel the same way about this now as I did when it came out, I just can’t get on board with the vocals. Fair play to the man because he was clearly on his last legs when he recorded this. It’s a well written record as you’d expect. Bang Nick Cave on vocals and you’ve got something I’d return to.

Chicago Transit Authority

Chicago

2/5

Not my cup of tea

Roger the Engineer

The Yardbirds

4/5

Really enjoyed this.
