Dookie

Green Day

3/5

Tres Hombres

ZZ Top

3/5

Graceland

Paul Simon

4/5

Some real classics and overall like how this album switched up the sound quite a bit but kept the vibes high - big fan

Paranoid

Black Sabbath

2/5

Too heavy for me - a couple of fab intros that got me fired up (paranoid, iron man) - otherwise I found myself zoning out a lot with all the noise

Go Girl Crazy

The Dictators

3/5

Enjoyed a lot more than I thought I would… Second half was much better than the first with some fun songs. Overall songs were good but maybe a bit long and repetitive individually

Something Else By The Kinks

The Kinks

2/5

Overall decent vibes - a bit boring at times. First song and last song were the best and fell a bit flat after that

Urban Hymns

The Verve

2/5

Cannot fault bittersweet symphony- absolutely timeless. Fell pretty flat after that for me

Harvest

Neil Young

3/5

enjoyed for the most part - a couple of standouts - some bits felt redundant/same-y but overall decent album for me

Nilsson Schmilsson

Harry Nilsson

5/5

So much fun

Back To Black

Amy Winehouse

5/5

Just fab - great sound/songs/vocals - a real classic

Manassas

Stephen Stills

1/5

Did not like this at all - but enjoyed the use of cowbells. How far was a song I enjoyed but that was literally it out of the whole thing

Pretzel Logic

Steely Dan

3/5

Decent and fun!

Thriller

Michael Jackson

2/5

Respect the art but Michael Jackson is not really for me. Do love Billie Jean though!

The Fat Of The Land

The Prodigy

3/5

Some good songs some that felt a bit long and noisy

Django Django

4/5

Really enjoyed this one!

New Gold Dream (81/82/83/84)

Simple Minds

2/5

The main singer had a unique voice but I thought every song sounded the same - not my favourite Just a quick gripe that this album is included but not let go by avril lavigne????????? Not sure about that

Master Of Puppets

Metallica

3/5

A bit long and a bit heavy for me but I actually enjoyed this more than I thought I would

Lost In The Dream

The War On Drugs

1/5

This was so painfully boring. Not for me at all

The Gershwin Songbook

Ella Fitzgerald

3/5

Shockingly I managed to listen to this full album and I really enjoyed it. No album should be this long though. I’d rate it higher if it was shorter to be honest.

Vulnicura

Björk

2/5

Interesting and different but not really my fave

Speakerboxxx/The Love Below

OutKast

3/5

Love OutKast and this album contributed to such a unique sound and trends in the 00s. Some fab songs but felt there could’ve been some fat trimmed from both discs to really elevate it

Blur

2/5

Started off okay but got a bit redundant so I didn’t enjoy it as much as I thought I might at the beginning

My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy

Kanye West

5/5

Disregarding today’s Kanye this is one of the greatest albums of all time. No skips, all songs have a fresh sound. I would listen to this anytime

Born To Run

Bruce Springsteen

1/5

I just don’t really get it with Bruce Springsteen but go off I guess

Swordfishtrombones

Tom Waits

3/5

Really liked this one. The first song will never not remind me of the movie robots. Thought the sound and instrumentals were nice and fresh - pleasantly surprised! Would rate it higher but there were a few too many filler songs

Daydream Nation

Sonic Youth

1/5

Found myself quite bored with this one

School's Out

Alice Cooper

5/5

I surprised myself by actually loving this album. I loved the through line and the elements of rock, pop and jazz. So much fun. I would say for me it’s more of a 4.5 but I enjoyed it more than most of my other 4 star albums so bumping it up. Really loved!!!
