3/5

Foo Fighters kind of missed me when I was getting into music, they were big for a lot of school friends but I was into a different genre. Knowing that this was their first album shortly about Cobain's death, it makes sense but there isn't really a big single in there for me. Cool to listen to considering the context though, would definitely like to try more Foo in the future

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

David Bowie

5/5

More amazing songs on here than I realised

Sign 'O' The Times

Prince

3/5

This really didn't feel like any Prince I'd heard before, then I realised it was his ninth album? Very different, had elements I like but not sure it's one I'll listen to often

Tommy

The Who

4/5

Interesting, another one I'd heard before but nothing new stood out. Always liked the rock opera album and a couple songs I hadn't listened to in years

Disraeli Gears

Cream

3/5

Knew Sunshine of your love pretty well but haven't explored the album, the only song that really hit me though on this was the Ulysses one? Good to explore, probably my least favourite so far though

Foo Fighters

3/5

Catch A Fire

Bob Marley & The Wailers

3/5

It's hard for me to listen to Reggae stuff because it was on all the time growing up and I wasn't a fan. This album however has some great riffs and showed me a different side, especially as again, only know the real big hits from Bob Marley. Fun listen, probably won't be regular though

The Hissing Of Summer Lawns

Joni Mitchell

3/5

So I'd never heard of Joni Mitchell? Interesting to read about her, not my kind of album but I liked how different this was to everything else I'd been recommended so far! Good for a history lesson

The Coral

3/5

Good option today, mostly due to knowing Dreaming of You really well so it was cool to listen to the rest of the album. Wasn't any other highlights for me there right now but I'll listen again for sure

Ellington at Newport

Duke Ellington

3/5

I've heard many jazz songs or jazz-inspired songs, but not listened to an album like this, especially during that era. Really interesting to listen to, especially after reading the wiki about Duke. Need to listen to again when I'm feeling it more

Brown Sugar

D'Angelo

4/5

Fun album, basically a whole album dedicated to baby maker songs?

Live!

Fela Kuti

4/5

This was 70s dude, definitely need to listen to this again

Hot Fuss

The Killers

5/5

Great album, so much nostalgia for me in this! Lots of great nights out lol. Some songs I hadn't heard in years, need to go through and save some

The Chronic

Dr. Dre

3/5

Good to educate myself on lots of little bits id heard before but not known it was from this album?

Kind Of Blue

Miles Davis

4/5

Interesting album, short but very listenable, really gave a vibe of like noire style detective music? I will listen to it again for sure

Bridge Over Troubled Water

Simon & Garfunkel

3/5

Heard a few covers in my time of these songs, some had a Beatles vibe that I genuinely thought was from them? Good to learn about

Heaven Or Las Vegas

Cocteau Twins

2/5

This didn't quite get me hooked on anything? Interesting to listen to, nice vibe, but like no song in there I was like "I have to get that in my liked songs!" which is a shame

Selling England By The Pound

Genesis

4/5

Had some real Rush vibes which I loved? Honestly cool album, different, not what I pictured with Genesis?
