We’ll start positively, I quite liked Sunday Shining. On the downside the rest of this album was painfully dull. I actually accidentally set the album on repeat and didn’t notice until Sunday Shining came on again. It was all just very samey.

Sweet And Loving Man in particular I couldn’t stand as every time he sang the title of the song there was a buzzing sound exactly like in the intro of Cocomelon. Kids used to love it and I have an everlasting hatred of it.

Top Track - Sunday Shining

Brilliant album, I’ve only every heard Talking Heads 77 before, 4 stars, but I think I prefer this one. They’re a band I really must go through the discography of at some point.

Top Track - Life During Wartime

A downside of working nightshift is that even when I’m off I don’t really sleep well. The benefit of that being when I get an album like this I can dance round my kitchen at half five in the morning without anyone seeing me make an eejit outta myself lol. I LOVED this. I bought the single of Frontier Psychiatrist when it came out but I’ve never listened to anything of theirs beyond that. Banging from start to finish.

Top Track - Electricity

As much as I enjoyed Zombie, 4 stars, I didn’t really like this one. Too many times it faded into background music. Quite disappointed.

Good album. Nothing terrible, nothing overly great

I’ve had this downloaded for about a month now, ever since I generated their self titled album, so at last I finally gave it a listen and I really enjoyed it. It didn’t blow me away like The Band did but it’s still a great album that I’ll be going back to.

Top Track - The Weight

My god I absolutely loathed this album, LOATHED it. This is one of the worst things I have ever heard. Before the first song had ended I was already checking how long was left on the album.

1 star is bloody generous

I was bloody excited to see this generated. Been too long since I’ve listened to it but I still love it. Every track on here is great and Mike Pattons vocals are awesome throughout.

Top Tracks - Zombie Eaters and From Out Of Nowhere

Great album, never heard of it before today. Has some brilliant guitar work throughout it.

Top Track - Marquee Moon

I’ve obviously heard the title track before but this might be the first time I’ve ever properly paid attention to it. Bloody great song to start off with. Massive drop off for the next song New Kid in Town, didn’t like it whatsoever. I didn’t really get back into the album after that. There were a few songs I liked but nothing that will live long in the memory. Disappointing after such a strong start.

Top Track - Hotel California

I’ve was never really anAmy Winehouse fan, didn’t hate her or anything just wasn’t my type of music when she was at her peak and I’ve never bothered to listen to her since. This one hasn’t really changed my mind. It wasn’t the worst album ever but it just wasn’t for me. I’m aware that Back To Black is meant to be a lot better so maybe that will change my mind.

Really enjoyed this. Not quite at the level of The Smiths but still really good and something I’ll be coming back to

Brilliant, brilliant album. Up there with some of my favourite albums on this list so far. Hendrix is one of those artists where I know the big hits but always mean to delve more into. I’ll be keeping this in my rotation for a while.

Top Track - Foxey Lady. The scene in Waynes World with Garth miming to this and doing the fox ears cracks me up no matter how many times I see it

As easy a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️as I’ve given in a while

Unbelievably short album but they pack more into the 15 minutes than most bands do with an hour. Proper old school punk

Let’s start with the positives, the title track is good enough. It’s a bit overplayed here in the UK since it’s been used in loads of adverts down the years but it’s not a bad song. I really enjoyed Creation, never heard that one before. As for the rest of the album, there’s a whole lot of nothing going on. Just some forgettable background music.

Top Track - Creation

I bloody LOVED this.This is only the second Michael Jackson album I’ve ever heard and while I wouldn’t exactly say I’ve become a fan of his yet, I will be keeping this saved and going back to it.

Top Track - Smooth Criminal, a belter of a song. Can’t believe I’d never heard this before considering I do really like the Alien Ant Farm cover version.

Hated everything about this.

First listen I didn’t like it at all until Laura’s Dream and from then onwards I didn’t mind it as much. Second listen I didn’t dislike it but it isn’t anything that’s going to stick with me. It’s nice background music.

Top Track - Laura’s Dream

It’s an alright album, nothing bad on here. There’s a couple of really good tracks but overall it isn’t one that’s gonna last long in the memory.

Top Track - She’s Like Heroin To Me

So all I knew of Duran Duran were the songs Rio and Hungry Like The Wolf which are good but wouldn’t be ones I would regularly listen to. With this in mind I was expecting a solid 3/5 album but surprisingly I thoroughly enjoyed this. The Chauffeur in particular was bloody brilliant.

Top Track - The Chauffeur
