HejiraJoni Mitchell

Rated 4/10

I can't explain why but Joni Mitchell always sounds like she's making up the song and lyrics while recording it

GracelandPaul Simon

Rated 4/10

This sort of blew my mind the first time I heard it, but it's really quite a pale imitation of what it's trying to be, and the main songs don't hit like I thought.

NevermindNirvana

Rated 8/10

Some really great classic stuff here. I think I'd have loved this when it came out. Not something I'll put on very often but certainly has it's place firmly on this list.

The only one I actually enjoyed was the one where someone else was singing. Other bands did and do this sort of thing much, much better.

If this was now you'd find them in what used to be called The Cartoon Club in Croydon while you wait for your friend's band to play and then you'd never hear from them again. They're only successful because they broke through in a time when there was very little choice of music and no one had heard blues properly.
