The Velvet Underground

5/5

To Pimp A Butterfly

Kendrick Lamar

3/5

Shake Your Money Maker

The Black Crowes

4/5

Seventeen Seconds

The Cure

4/5

Red Headed Stranger

Willie Nelson

4/5

I'm not into Country but this was a surprise. Short songs flowing into each other to tell the story. A good Sunday morning listen with a coffee.

Pink Moon

Nick Drake

4/5

I'm a fan of Nick Drake and this album is great. It's often touted as being a definitive album, but Five Leaves Left and Bryter Later are better albums (IMO).

Something Else By The Kinks

The Kinks

2/5

Wow! That was disappointing. I liked the Kinks but never listened to an album until now. Apart from Waterloo Sunset the songs seem very flat and the overall quite boring. The Jam's cover of David Watts blows the original out of the water. I'll check out other Kinks albums but this one is a hard no.

Twelve Dreams Of Dr. Sardonicus

Spirit

3/5

Sign 'O' The Times

Prince

2/5

Four great tracks but the rest is just filler unfortunately. No doubt Prince was incredibly talented but for me, apart from Purple Rain, his albums fall.

Deserter's Songs

Mercury Rev

3/5

The Yes Album

Yes

3/5

Stankonia

OutKast

3/5

I See You

The xx

2/5

Once you've heard the debut album, which I really liked, that's all you need with the XX. Just more of the same with 'I See You'.

The Gilded Palace Of Sin

The Flying Burrito Brothers

3/5

Interesting country sound. Obviously an inspiration for Father John Misty.

Safe As Milk

Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band

4/5

None of the albums on the list so far made me go "I must listen to that again" but this one did. Picking up the 50th anniversary release on my way home from work for the third listen.

2112

Rush

4/5

Honky Tonk Heroes

Waylon Jennings

2/5

Dust

Screaming Trees

4/5

Songs For Swingin' Lovers!

Frank Sinatra
