At Newport 1960

Muddy Waters

4/5

Great album. I've heard plenty of blues, including Muddy, so thought it would be a snoozefest, but this live performance takes it to another level. If nothing else, get a load of what the backing band is doing. Phenomenal.

Station To Station

David Bowie

5/5

An amazing musical journey that I never wanted to end. So many styles and sounds so fresh after repeated listening. I rate this one of the top albums ever.

Kid A

Radiohead

5/5

One of the most hypnotic albums ever. I can remember hearing it in the 90s, exactly where I was and the scenery in my view. And I've listened to it countless times since. It's still unlike any album i know (except for maybe a Bowie or two), defying classification.

Either Or

Elliott Smith

3/5

The Next Day

David Bowie

5/5

Back At The Chicken Shack

Jimmy Smith

3/5

Hot stuff, if you're into organ. The backing band is fantastic.

Talking Book

Stevie Wonder

5/5

A great mix of funk and ballads. Worth listening on repeat for a wonderful 45 minute adventure.

A Love Supreme

John Coltrane

5/5

Incredible and transcendent. Maybe not suitable for a jazz newbie or someone who's demanding of a melody, but it’s pure expression. Timeless and powerful for any time of the day.

Five Leaves Left

Nick Drake

4/5

A mellow album but solid in delivery. The arrangements, strings and all, are timeless and beautiful. It deserves repeat listens to fully absorb what all is happening lyrically and musically.

Hypnotised

The Undertones

5/5

Tanto Tempo

Bebel Gilberto

5/5

Beautiful album. I can't believe i overlooked it all these years. Floating and calm samba, sultry and slinky bass lines, fun brass songs. Putting this one on repeat!

Different Class

Pulp

4/5

Parachutes

Coldplay

3/5

I'm a bit fatigued from too much Coldplay over the years. But I'll admit this is a decent álbum, nicely arranged songs.

All That You Can't Leave Behind

3/5

It's a decent album but I found it lacking edginess, a tad too slick in places.

Moss Side Story

Barry Adamson

2/5

I'm not sure why this is on the list. It was probably a fun experiment for the artist but it comes off like a DJ cobbled together some clips and pieces of film noir stuff.

Buffalo Springfield Again

Buffalo Springfield

4/5

Although it's got a 60s vibe, there's enough working here to make it timeless. Worth of repeat listens.

Exile On Main Street

The Rolling Stones

4/5

Damn fine. The Stones at their raggedy best.

She's So Unusual

Cyndi Lauper

4/5

Lots of hits. I didn't want to like this but found it more enjoyable and spiky than expected. Cyndi done good.
