Hotel California

Eagles

2/5

All very safe and...pleasant. Lots of....pleasant harmonies. The orchestral reprise of Wasted Time was very....pleasant. Apart from the title track, nothing really grabbed hold. My father is a big fan of the Eagles...I am not.

Black Holes and Revelations

Muse

2/5

Pompous, effects-pedal-heavy nonsense, punctuated by random bits of opera, salsa, and spaghetti western, among (many) others. Most of album tempo at 6.2km/h, coincidentally my treadmill walking speed, so that helped me plow through it.

Wild Is The Wind

Nina Simone

3/5

A voice to get lost in. Piano arrangements resonate in both senses of the word. Four Women is a highlight.

The Marshall Mathers LP

Eminem

1/5

Memememe. Long and exhausting.

Sticky Fingers

The Rolling Stones

3/5

Not a fan of Jagger's vocal stylings, and the white boy blues doesn't do it for me, but there are 3 or 4 classics on this which elevates it above mediocrity. Sister Morphine and You Gotta Move are highlights

Born In The U.S.A.

Bruce Springsteen

2/5

Nothing very memorable here other than the big singles. Felt like it hasn't aged well, as I was listening - a very 80s album.

Crime Of The Century

Supertramp

3/5

Prog-pop, fairly interesting. Some nice piano and saxophone interludes.

Lam Toro

Baaba Maal

2/5

Some of the juxtaposition of traditional instrumentation doesn't land well. Last song is just cringe.
