Electric Ladyland

Jimi Hendrix

4/5

Obviously legendary album, some real highlights particularly the singles, Burning of the Midnight Lamp one of the first guitar songs I fell in love with (and could play a bit). But it's too long for me, not as concise as Axis Bold As Love. But Hendrix is Obviously on fire the whole time

Billion Dollar Babies

Alice Cooper

3/5

For some reason always a surprise when I listen to Alice Cooper. Great 70s rock album

The Stone Roses

5/5

First got turned onto Stone Roses early 2000s due to my love of Britpop (mostly Oasis). Remember even then listening and thinking these guys are superior musicians, the rhythm section just phenomenal. I Wanna Be Adored an iconic opening, and I Am The Resurrection an iconic end. Strong nostalgia of coming home after watching Celtic game with my dad at the pub, putting this on in my room and falling asleep

In The Court Of The Crimson King

King Crimson

3/5

Never listened before, nice mix of prog, folk and even jazz elements. Didn't really grab me but pretty good

Murmur

R.E.M.

4/5

Came to this album about 8 years ago having only heard the Warner Brothers tracks of REM. Absolutely brilliant debut, jangly, emotional, catchy. Perfect Circle is gorgeous. Made me listen to every album of theirs and I fell in love with the band.

I Should Coco

Supergrass

3/5

Not bad, quite fun but not essential listening. Gaz Coombes has a great voice, great songwriting but just not for me

One Nation Under A Groove

Funkadelic

3/5

Quality old school funk, great stuff

To Pimp A Butterfly

Kendrick Lamar

3/5

Decent, I've got to be in the mood for hip hop and it normally takes something special to keep my attention, some great highlights on this but all in all didn't do it for me. Like the genre bending though

Kid A

Radiohead

5/5

Absolute top tier. Took me a while to get into when I first bought but eventually became a favourite, what balls to move so drastically from what worked on OK Computer. One of the great bands
