Abbey Road by Beatles
Jan 26 2026

Not my favourite band but a few tracks were good

Rio by Duran Duran
Jan 27 2026

WOW! My swoonworthy pop idols from my youth. There's no mistaking the voice of Simon Le Bon, Andy Taylor's guitar or John Taylor's Bass. Innovative and although of its time it still sounds spot on today.

Pearl by Janis Joplin
Jan 30 2026

Some good songs, bit before my time.

Fear Of Music by Talking Heads
Feb 04 2026

Just as dreary as the weather!

At Budokan by Cheap Trick
Feb 08 2026

Dire, I hate rock!

Triangle by The Beau Brummels
Feb 15 2026

Background music, bit too dated for me.

The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails
Feb 17 2026

Absolute abysmal noise. The only track I liked was the one they didn't shout/groan/swear/sing on! Can we just stop with the rock now!

Fragile by Yes
Feb 18 2026

Not really sure how to place this album genre. Wasn't bad, but not great either.

Tago Mago by Can
Feb 20 2026

Good grief! Should I have partaken in drugs to have enjoyed this?! Utter noise!

Kind Of Blue by Miles Davis
Feb 22 2026

I certainly appreciate the skill of Davies and Coltrane especially on a lazy Sunday. However, it's not necessarily an album I'd go back to as I prefer the raunchier side of jazz.

Come Away With Me by Norah Jones
Feb 24 2026

Beautiful and serene Norah instantly calms the day.

Brilliant Corners by Thelonious Monk
Feb 25 2026

Excellent brass and sax but not one gor a second listen

Rattlesnakes by Lloyd Cole And The Commotions
Feb 26 2026

This was a pleasant surprise.

Disraeli Gears by Cream
Feb 28 2026

Getting a bit bored of 60s psychedelic rock. I know there is the great Eric Clapton and his musical genius but that's it for me!!

BEYONCÉ by Beyoncé
Mar 01 2026

Really expected better from Beyoncé, so many other artists it's hard to tell whether it's her music at all.
