5/5

Never listened to Arcade Fire before and this album was a huge surprise. Wonderful and will most likely buy a copy on vinyl.

Arrival

ABBA

4/5

Great album, some of the filler tracks were not as strong as I had hoped. But a very listenable album which I may well add to my collection and online store

Dirt

Alice In Chains

3/5

Heavier album than I expected and not a sound I would lean towards normally. Some great guitar work on this album which I can hear echoes of other bands of the era. Not a bad album, just not my cup of tea.

1999

Prince

4/5

Good album by Prince. Nice to hear such great strong singles as openers for the album. It’s clear Prince was still developing his capabilities as a writer and performer and I do think the album is worthy of more than one listen to really appreciate it

Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)

Wu-Tang Clan

1/5

No from me. Terrible album

The Rise & Fall

Madness

2/5

With the exception of two singles, not a great album to listen through.

Wish You Were Here

Pink Floyd

5/5

Picking up where The Dark Side of the Moon ended… superb

Funeral

Arcade Fire

5/5

Never listened to Arcade Fire before and this album was a huge surprise. Wonderful and will most likely buy a copy on vinyl.

Disintegration

The Cure

5/5

What an absolutely amazing album this is. Where has this album been hiding in my life. 54 years old and only just discovering The Cure.

Madman Across The Water

Elton John

4/5

Not a bad album. Love Tiny Dancer and the rest of the album flows nicely. Definitely a strong album that sits well in the highly creative period of Elton’s early career.

Let's Stay Together

Al Green

4/5

A great easy listening album

Debut

Björk

4/5

What an extraordinary album. Bizarre, experimental, generational talent all mixed into one. Singles are the standout tracks but there are some beautiful moments on Album tracks as well.

Aha Shake Heartbreak

Kings of Leon

4/5

Not a bad album to listen through. I enjoyed hearing the singles, which Four Kicks is my favourite KOL track anyway. A few hidden album track gems as well. As rock and roll should be - short and to the point songs making the album done and dusted in just over 35 minutes.

Fragile

Yes

1/5

Didn’t like this sadly.

Head Hunters

Herbie Hancock

4/5

Never considered Jazz as a music genre before listening to this album today. Smooth, crisp and enjoyable.

Garbage

4/5

A well written and well produced album by the band in an era where defining yourself against your competitors as being different must’ve been a challenge.

Music for the Masses

Depeche Mode

5/5

A belter of an album from a period where music was great

Cosmo's Factory

Creedence Clearwater Revival

5/5

When I Was Born For The 7th Time

Cornershop

3/5

Some great tracks on this album which deserve more recognition than they have been given. Equally there are some tracks which left my ears wondering what the fuck… a nice dusting of Asian influence throughout. Plus the lead single is strong without the chart success remix

L.A. Woman

The Doors

5/5

5 star album… brilliant

Let's Get It On

Marvin Gaye

5/5

Superb soulful album

Moondance

Van Morrison

Awful abum

Space Ritual

Hawkwind

1/5

Bloody awful live album

Sheer Heart Attack

Queen

4/5

Mothership Connection

Parliament

3/5

I lost count of how many times the word Funk was sang through the album that it became a standing laughable joke. An interesting funk experimental concept album.

Brothers In Arms

Dire Straits

5/5

A solid classic which should be in any record collection

Siembra

Willie Colón & Rubén Blades

3/5

A Cuban holiday soundtrack in mid February in the UK… why not. Not a bad album

Ray Of Light

Madonna

5/5

The best Madonna album in her catalogue… fact!
