Who's Next

The Who

4/5

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

Amnesiac

Radiohead

2/5

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

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

3/5

A solid album, containing good music.

Moondance

Van Morrison

3/5

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

Bossanova

Pixies

4/5

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

Bob Dylan

2/5

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

Diamond Life

Sade

3/5

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

Cosmo's Factory

Creedence Clearwater Revival

4/5

A Hard Day's Night

Beatles

3/5

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

Surf's Up

The Beach Boys

1/5

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

From Elvis In Memphis

Elvis Presley

4/5

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

Henry's Dream

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

2/5

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

L.A. Woman

The Doors

3/5

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

Let's Get It On

Marvin Gaye

1/5

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

George Harrison

3/5

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

The Blueprint

JAY Z

4/5

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

Norah Jones

3/5

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

Coat Of Many Colors

Dolly Parton

4/5

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

Wild Gift

3/5

It came, it went and it sounded nice

Elephant Mountain

The Youngbloods

3/5

Unexpectedly brilliant - would listen again.

The xx

4/5

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

Khaled

3/5

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

Warehouse: Songs And Stories

Hüsker Dü

5/5

These. Kick. Fucking. Ass.

Nilsson Schmilsson

Harry Nilsson

1/5

'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 Real Thing

Faith No More

3/5

The Holy Bible

Manic Street Preachers

2/5

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!

Fela Kuti

1/5

Not a massive fan of live albums.

The Stranger

Billy Joel

4/5

Fantastic album

Transformer

Lou Reed

3/5

Green River
