1984

Van Halen

4/5

Intros and guitar playing were excellent; I’d never really listened to Van Halen to hear how good they were as musicians.

Hunky Dory

David Bowie

3/5

Love Bowie but this felt disjointed

Tusk

Fleetwood Mac

I was more familiar with Rumors so it was cool to hear other stuff from FM. Tusk has been covered or sampled somewhere and I cannot figure it out…

Still one of the best albums- loved it then, love it now
