Merriweather Post Pavilion

Animal Collective

3/5

I remember buying this and playing it non stop because it was so raved about and I just couldn't get it. After this latest listen I still don't. There is so much going on, it tries so hard to be the beach boys and flaming lips oh and mercury rev but it just doesn't connect with me

Remember this coming out, quite the hoo has about it. Not aged well for meeting, although not my sort of music to be fair

4/5

Good old hoary rock n roll

Oxygène

Jean-Michel Jarre

5/5

I remember hearing this as a kid and it seemed so otherworldly to anything else I was listening to. It transported me to sunny isles and led me to a love of all 70' electronics. I still adore it, a must listen to anyone with a fascination of electronic music, it will send you down many a rabbit hole though !

Street Life

The Crusaders

2/5

Street life classic, the rest poor elevator music

Good introduction to a great group, I can see me going down a throwing muses rabbit hole

The Who

5/5

One of greatest live albums ever

A Short Album About Love

4/5

A do have a soft spot for The Divine Comedy. Neil Hannon is a wonderful writer
