At Folsom Prison

Johnny Cash

5/5

Great and hilarious

Ready To Die

The Notorious B.I.G.

5/5

Surprisingly excellent! I didn't think I'd be into big but I was mesmerised!

Elvis Presley

2/5

I think for me to appreciate this album more, I'd need to have a better understanding of what was happening culturally at the time. While not a bad album, I just didn't vibe with it.

Songs From The Big Chair

Tears For Fears

4/5

I could hear tinges of my favourite artists in this. Not quite what I'd normally listen to but I felt connected to it. Quite surprised!

People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm

A Tribe Called Quest

3/5

I might need to sit on this one for a little bit, it didn't catch me on the first listen but I hear something in it that's cool.

Station To Station

David Bowie

4/5

Another one of those that I might have to sit with, but the initial impression was quite positive.

Surf's Up

The Beach Boys

4/5

Bit of a black horse... I went into it knitting that I didn't mind the beach boys but not something I'd seek out. This album was surprisingly varied and deep.

Getz/Gilberto

Stan Getz

3/5

I'm not the target audience for this type of release. That being said, it was nice.

Led Zeppelin III

Led Zeppelin

5/5

Palo Congo

Sabu

5/5

This is SICK! Whoever says it's a hard listen is trying to listen too hard, just relax and be with it.

Deep Purple In Rock

Deep Purple

4/5

A little nutty and full of machismo. Didn't love it, didn't hate it. Just gritty

Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music

Ray Charles

1/5

Unfortunately this wasn't at all for me.

Pictures At An Exhibition

Emerson, Lake & Palmer

4/5

Mask

Bauhaus

3/5

It wasn't without its cool moments, very jammy and odd which I liked. Lots of expression. It never quite seemed to take off except for maybe a couple of tracks but perhaps that's the point. Music to listen to when you don't really want to listen to anything in particular?

The Bends

Radiohead

5/5

I'm not sure why I didn't listen to this sooner, it's right up my alley! Odd and pretty in so many ways.

Fear Of A Black Planet

Public Enemy

2/5

I understand that it was a landmark release and it spoke volumes about the zeitgeist of the late 80s/90s, but on a musical level it just didn't hit me and honestly I feel like I'm a bad person for thinking that.

If I Should Fall From Grace With God

The Pogues

4/5

I hated the title track with a passion. But by the time I got to bottle of smoke I was laughing.

L.A. Woman

The Doors

4/5

Kinda grongy

Roger the Engineer

The Yardbirds

1/5

What the hell was that!?
