Californication

Red Hot Chili Peppers

4/5

The Low End Theory

A Tribe Called Quest

3/5

Innervisions

Stevie Wonder

3/5

Unknown Pleasures

Joy Division

2/5

I liked the first track ‘Disorder’, but the rest of the tracks I didn’t particularly enjoy - made me a feel uncomfortable/not relaxed… not really my style I guess

In A Silent Way

Miles Davis

3/5

Axis: Bold As Love

Jimi Hendrix

3/5

Illinois

Sufjan Stevens

4/5

This album was so fun and unexpected! Each song almost felt like a different genre and it kept me on my toes (in a good way). Really enjoyed the quality of his voice, too.

Lady Soul

Aretha Franklin

5/5

What a voice!! This album is hit after hit, and has aged so well. Great record all in all, my first easy 5 stars

Clandestino

Manu Chao

4/5

Fun, fresh, music I would be happy to dance to or enjoy on a drive

(Pronounced 'Leh-'Nérd 'Skin-'Nérd)

Lynyrd Skynyrd

3/5

There were some fun moments, especially discovering the guitar solo in’Free Bird’ that’s been used in a bunch of movies! But overall it was too durgy for my liking.

Come Away With Me

Norah Jones

3/5

Some classics on this album - can’t go past ‘Don’t Know Why’ and ‘Come Away With Me’! But the rest of the album was pretty samey and not too memorable. A nice listen but not groundbreaking

The Stone Roses

3/5

Sunshine Superman

Donovan

3/5

Lovely voice and interesting style - a pretty enjoyable listen!

London Calling

Who's Next

The Who

4/5

Loved this whole album! It’s 55 years old this year but the style feels pretty timeless, great music!

Orbital 2

Orbital

1/5

Couldn’t finish. I’m sure it’s someone’s vibe but it’s definitely not mine

White Blood Cells

The White Stripes

2/5

I like some rock, but not this particular album. Just didn’t really vibe with this one and wouldn’t revisit.

In The Court Of The Crimson King

King Crimson

3/5

2112

Rush

4/5

Some great classic rock music and awesome vocalist. Really enjoyed a little car headbang to this one!

Darkdancer

Les Rythmes Digitales

3/5

A Walk Across The Rooftops

The Blue Nile

3/5

A little bit durgy but had some nice moments overall. Wouldn’t listen again but added ‘Heatwave’ to my best of albums playlist!

Automatic For The People

R.E.M.

3/5

Hypocrisy Is The Greatest Luxury

The Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprisy

3/5

This isn’t generally the style of music I’d go for, but wow it somehow really gets you to sit up and listen. I kept thinking (sadly) how crazy it is that the lyrics are still so applicable today, especially with what’s going on in the US currently. And this was from 34 years ago!
