2/5

Wasnt entirely sure why I hadnt listened to SFA when the britpop boom was happening but now I know i wasnt missing much.

A Girl Called Dusty

Dusty Springfield

3/5

quintessential blue-eyed soul. love any song under 3 min that is so sonically expansive. Adele's predecessor by nearly 50 years. I'm Gonna Leave you is a highlight

Wish You Were Here

Pink Floyd

3/5

core memory of seeing this tape in my dad's collection. next to his stereo setup in the living room that lived in the enormous media cabinet. Overall Wish you were here is the highlight, the rest of the album is less memorable. But Shine on you Crazy diamond is fun and expansive

Stripped

Christina Aguilera

1/5

this is not for me. thank you please.

Adele

All the bangers, all the lungs, straight up sanging

Rubber Soul

Beatles

5/5

A beautiful bridge for what was to come for them post 1965! A top favorite of mine

Trans Europe Express

Kraftwerk

4/5

So fun. Did not realize what an impact this album had on so many of their contemporaries. Franz Schubert is the highlight here

Orange Juice

2/5

Not really my jam - rip it up is the star here but the rest is kind of forgettable

My Aim Is True

Elvis Costello

5/5

just perfect.

Butterfly

Mariah Carey

2/5

A definitive r+b 90s moment. But not her strongest album

A Walk Across The Rooftops

The Blue Nile

2/5

Beautifully orchestrated - and feels very lead gray skies/Irish. Vocals give pogues vibes a bit.

Tellin’ Stories

The Charlatans

2/5

Less good Oasis

Hard Again

Muddy Waters

4/5

Beautiful

Kings Of The Wild Frontier

Adam & The Ants

3/5

Definitely a moment and pushed pop punk forward before it was ever called that

Rum Sodomy & The Lash

The Pogues

2/5

I can appreciate the Pogues but this aint really my jam. too much hurdy gurdy and tin whistles i suppose.

Pretzel Logic

Steely Dan

4/5

I LOVE STEELY DAN.

A Date With The Everly Brothers

The Everly Brothers

3/5

I love a 50s baby bop. the OGs of blue eyed soul.

Bob Dylan

5/5

this recording of this performance is a gift. this is a perfect concert. perfect music. dylan at his most powerful.

This is ok - TVOTR never really stood out to me for whatever reason.

Electric Warrior

T. Rex

4/5

Hell yes. Thank you glam rock.

Walking Wounded

Everything But The Girl

This is ok. Definitely a time capsule

Third

Portishead

4/5

Moody, ethereal, with far reaching influence that still feels relevant

Hounds Of Love

Kate Bush

definitely very 80s in moments, but stand out, timeless moments. Kate Bush walked so Tori Amos and all the Lilith babes could even be.

Achtung Baby

2/5

u2 is just not for me.

Emergency On Planet Earth

Jamiroquai
