1999 by Prince
Aug 05 2026

A funky and clever album from a great artist. Begins with some great hits before heading towards long and impressive but slightly less easy to listen to songs. I became less engaged as the album continued.

Born To Run by Bruce Springsteen
Aug 06 2026

Very palatable with some fun riffs. Good mix of songs, good composition of instruments.

Head Hunters by Herbie Hancock
Aug 07 2026

Fun and funky. Almost always interesting and engaging. Long songs didn’t hurt the album.

Young Americans by David Bowie
Aug 10 2026

Musically sound. Just couldn’t bring myself to enjoy his voice.

Blunderbuss by Jack White
Aug 11 2026

Peculiar. Not my style.

Back to Mystery City by Hanoi Rocks
Aug 12 2026

Surprisingly enjoyable. Loved the variety of instruments.

Ace of Spades by Motörhead
Aug 13 2026

The title track is a classic. It’s still metal though… even after a mere 36 minutes I was struggling.

Astral Weeks by Van Morrison
Aug 14 2026

Really enjoyed it. Great mix of genres and a legendary voice.

Aug 17 2026

First off, Bono is a legend. The first 3 tracks really evoke an emotion and feel very relatable, something that is often the sign of a great album. However I didn’t enjoy every track and felt the themes of the songs were all very similar so it pains me to give The Joshua Tree only 4 stars, a rating that doesn’t really feel quite representative of an amazing album. Definitely towards a 5 but it wasn’t quite enough for me.

Live At The Regal by B.B. King
Aug 20 2026

Great storyteller. Great voice. Great band. The crowd was maybe a little enthusiastic but that’s not the fault of “the King”.

Songs For Swingin' Lovers! by Frank Sinatra
Aug 21 2026

Legend. We need more of this music in the modern world. Too much of the same to give this 5 stars but all in all a great album.

Lost In The Dream by The War On Drugs
Aug 24 2026

I had never heard of them and I was very sceptical. However… I was definitely humbled when it turned out to be a real gem of an album and a really enjoyable listen.

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
Aug 25 2026

I expected it to be better than it was but I still really enjoyed select songs and it’s obviously a clever album. And so on and so on and scooby dooby dooby.

The ArchAndroid by Janelle Monáe
Aug 26 2026

I have never heard anything like this in my life…

Tank Battles by Dagmar Krause
Aug 28 2026

Swiftly moving on…

Back To Black by Amy Winehouse
Aug 31 2026

Mark Ronson is a genius. She has a great voice and vibe. One of the best albums I have heard. Every track is a hit.

Sticky Fingers by The Rolling Stones
Sep 01 2026

The Rolling Stones are one of those bands who are extremely famous but I have never gotten around to listening to their music. Although it is just one album, Sticky Fingers gives me relief in knowing that I wasn’t missing out.

Hot Shots II by The Beta Band
Sep 02 2026

A nice amount of experimental
