Arcade Fire

3/5

Let's Get It On

Marvin Gaye

5/5

One the truly great voices. Marvin Gaye is really at the height of his powers here

Elvis Costello

5/5

Loved this since I was a teen. Every track is great. Really varied and interesting. Alison, Less Than Zero, Watching the Detectives all absolute classics. His lyrics and wordplay are top notch

Toys In The Attic

Aerosmith

5/5

Seminal rock record. So influential on guitarists and singers.

Aretha Franklin

5/5

The greatest female soul by a country mile

Bob Marley & The Wailers

5/5

Grant Lee Buffalo

4/5

Not listened to them before. Quite like it, though I am currently less in the mood for this style. Some vibes of Echo and the Bunnymen/Waterboys

Untitled (Black Is)

SAULT

4/5

Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)

Eurythmics

3/5

Obviously some iconic tracks like the title and Love is a Stranger

CHIC

5/5

No one alive can avoid the need to dance when Chic plays

Napalm Death

4/5

Bringing It All Back Home

Bob Dylan

5/5

Somehow don’t go to Dylan much but whenever I do it’s obvious how incredible he is

Simon & Garfunkel

4/5

Some unusual stuff among well known classics and standard beautiful s&g

Violent Femmes

5/5

So iconic. They make so much from so little. Full of energy and passion

Machine Gun Etiquette

The Damned

5/5

Punk energy with more sophistication than their debut album. Lots of guitar solos which arent very punk! But great.

Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots

The Flaming Lips

4/5

Was a very big album of its moment. Certainly full of beauty and warmth.

Coldplay

1/5

Chris Martin’s voice is just so awful. Everything I don’t want from a singer. The whole thing is just painful and bland and dire.

Deserter's Songs

Mercury Rev

3/5

Interesting but ultimately not my thing

Ali Farka Touré

5/5

The Stooges

5/5

So so seminal. Raw Power indeed

Electric Ladyland

Jimi Hendrix

5/5

Eli And The Thirteenth Confession

Laura Nyro

4/5

What a gorgeous voice. Huge influence on so many singers to come. Great blend of folk with lots of other styles

Tea for the Tillerman

Cat Stevens

5/5

His voice is so much more than the sum of it’s parts. Beautiful stuff from a complex, difficult guy.

Mothership Connection

Parliament

5/5

One of the absolute all time great funk albums. What an amazing band on the top of their game. Some stone cold kick ass bangers
