Who's Next by The Who
Feb 16 2026

Fantastic album. The influence on later bands is there to be heard.

Amnesiac by Radiohead
Feb 17 2026

Simply put - not for me. You can't find much wrong with the composition. There's just not much that sounds good to revisit. Although, I'm probably part of the problem in this regard.

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Feb 18 2026

A solid album, containing good music.

Moondance by Van Morrison
Feb 19 2026

Good album that starts strong, and mellows out for me. You can hear Van Morrison's influence, on other artists, in his style.

Bossanova by Pixies
Feb 20 2026

Fantastic work. The music is excellent and distracts From the fact that the album doesn't have much to say. Cecilia Ann is an incredible opener.

Blonde On Blonde by Bob Dylan
Feb 21 2026

The album cover sufficiently prepared me for how beige this album this.

Diamond Life by Sade
Feb 21 2026

A really good album. A smooth operator on the ears.

A Hard Day's Night by Beatles
Feb 23 2026

A good album. Not one for my regular rotation, but it's still good.

Surf's Up by The Beach Boys
Feb 24 2026

Not for me. Started crap, picked up here and there but was largely uninteresting.

From Elvis In Memphis by Elvis Presley
Feb 25 2026

Much better, a really good album. Hard to beat a bit of Elvis.

Henry's Dream by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Feb 26 2026

I'm sure this is for someone, but that someone isn't me. As art, it's fine.

L.A. Woman by The Doors
Feb 27 2026

Understand the hype around The Doors now. Really good album, especially Riders on the Storm and Hyacinth Doors

Let's Get It On by Marvin Gaye
Feb 28 2026

This man's estate sues people for making similar music. Baffling. I've never heard a man, whose meant to epitomise sexual music, sound so unattractively whiny.

All Things Must Pass by George Harrison
Mar 01 2026

Slower music done right. Any 5 star reviewers haven't listened to It's Johnny's Birthday.

The Blueprint by JAY Z
Mar 02 2026

Fantastic album, with a range of samples that both homaged and modernised the East Coast hip-hop sound. 'I sampled your voice, you were using it wrong' is a mental diss.

Come Away With Me by Norah Jones
Mar 03 2026

A well played, well written album. Lacks replay value for my personal test but would still thoroughly recommend.

Coat Of Many Colors by Dolly Parton
Mar 04 2026

Really enjoyed this album, Coat of Many Colours is a timeless track.

Wild Gift by X
Mar 05 2026

It came, it went and it sounded nice

Elephant Mountain by The Youngbloods
Mar 06 2026

Unexpectedly brilliant - would listen again.

xx by The xx
Mar 07 2026

A fantastic, sombre listening experience. The perfect album to play on a dark Friday evening, when you just wanna sit with the lights off and relax.

Kenza by Khaled
Mar 08 2026

Could be singing the phone book for all I care. Still good music

Nilsson Schmilsson by Harry Nilsson
Mar 10 2026

'You put the lime in the coconut' is the type of earworm that makes you wish you were dead, simply for remembering it's existence.

The Holy Bible by Manic Street Preachers
Mar 12 2026

I like the Preacher's sound, and I have no problem with the message that accompanies the sound. After a few tracks though, this album feels like it flatlines

Live! by Fela Kuti
Mar 13 2026

Not a massive fan of live albums.

Green River by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Mar 16 2026

Some of the best guitar work I've heard.

Hot Fuss by The Killers
Mar 23 2026

Somebody told me, that they had an album, that's more than one single, and this is true. Lots of good, lot of plodding, a fine album.

Mar 25 2026

I listened without prejudice, and the whisper singing filled me with prejudice. Someone told George he was seductive, they were wrong.
