Violator by Depeche Mode
Jan 14 2026

good if you like repetitive synths

Jagged Little Pill by Alanis Morissette
Jan 15 2026

a little long but a few strong songs.

Jan 16 2026

"Ok" fine to have on in the background while shouting at my kids but never reached threshold of me paying attention

Stardust by Willie Nelson
Jan 19 2026

I love Willie Nelson, but this is far from his best output. Good for background music at a dinner party but this is not him at his rebellious outlaw best.

Low by David Bowie
Jan 29 2026
Penance Soiree by The Icarus Line
Jan 30 2026

Would rather just listen to The Stooges

Drunk by Thundercat
Feb 05 2026
Marquee Moon by Television
Feb 10 2026

Best album that I've 'discovered' so far.

Whatever by Aimee Mann
Feb 11 2026

Felt very much of its time

Feb 20 2026

Bit samey throughout. I bought it when it came out and I haven't listened to it for 20+ years.

Bookends by Simon & Garfunkel
Mar 02 2026

had listened to all the songs before but not in order - hadn't realised S&G had a concept album

Heroes by David Bowie
Mar 03 2026
Iron Maiden by Iron Maiden
Mar 10 2026

Never really listened to IM before - quite enjoyed it!

Behaviour by Pet Shop Boys
Mar 12 2026

Enjoy PSB singles but the album was too samey

Birth Of The Cool by Miles Davis
Mar 20 2026

It was good but once again, I'm a jazz ignoramus. Would make for a good soundtrack for Pixar shorts.

So by Peter Gabriel
Mar 23 2026

Knows how to make a good Phil Collins album

Blue by Joni Mitchell
Mar 24 2026
Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Mar 31 2026

Take 5 is fine, but again another album of background jazz. I don't have the knowledge or understanding to assess the impact of random time signatures.

The Specials by The Specials
Apr 22 2026

Enjoyed hearing a bit more of the specials range but patchy

Teenage Head by Flamin' Groovies
May 08 2026

A bit like slightly lo-fi early Rolling Stones

C'est Chic by CHIC
May 11 2026

some good tunes but not consistent

1999 by Prince
May 14 2026
Odessey And Oracle by The Zombies
May 15 2026

Big fan of the Zombies - managed to break-up before the album was released alas.

21 by Adele
May 18 2026

Get over it.

Metallica by Metallica
May 19 2026

Bit noisy

Transformer by Lou Reed
May 21 2026

Particularly love hearing Bowie in the background

Remedy by Basement Jaxx
May 22 2026

Not for me. Some good bits.
