3 Years, 5 Months And 2 Days In The Life Of...

All Ratings

The Low End Theory

A Tribe Called Quest

4/5

I’ve tried Tribe before, but found them a bit samey. On listening, the lyrics are really good. With a good variety of social themes

Dummy

Portishead

5/5

Brilliant album. Really ambient and atmospheric. Love the singers voice and trippy backing and beats

Fleet Foxes

4/5

I hadn’t heard of Fleet Foxes before and was pleasantly surprised. It’s quite gentle and soothing. Although it’s Americana, some of the passages reminded me of later Beatles compositions

Home Is Where The Music Is

Hugh Masekela

3/5

I’m sure music aficionados will love this. I found it easy to like but harder to love. And I must admit a slight sense of dejavu as I listened through

(Pronounced 'Leh-'Nérd 'Skin-'Nérd)

Lynyrd Skynyrd

5/5

Loved it. It reminded me a bit of early Aerosmith

The Joshua Tree

4/5

I found it hard to fully appreciate the album due to how often I’ve heard all of the singles before. Certainly the non-singles are very strong, and I enjoyed listening to those the most

Morrison Hotel

The Doors

4/5

Really enjoyed this. It was first time listening and I always associated The Doors with being a bit doom and gloom. I was pleasantly surprised by how light it was

3 Years, 5 Months And 2 Days In The Life Of...

Arrested Development

5/5

Loved it

A Date With The Everly Brothers

The Everly Brothers

3/5

A real nostalgia trip, as the Everly Brothers were a favourite of my dad. Not something I would usually listen to, but their voices are amazing and the short songs are perfect slices of 60s Americana

Graceland

Paul Simon

4/5

This album feels of it’s time now. I imagine it was cutting edge in terms of musical style at the time, certainly in terms of the mainstream. I like the lyrics and blend of African music

Coat Of Many Colors

Dolly Parton

2/5

This was little too twee for me

My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy

Kanye West

5/5

Loved it. Very diverse, mixing lots of different styles. Love the Iron Man riff too!

Caetano Veloso

2/5

Very different. I think it will need a few listens before I can decide

Swordfishtrombones
