A really good retro pop album, enjoyed this for what it is. Obviously can’t stand up to classic albums from 1965 onwards, but still good for its time, and makes my frequent rotation.

The perfect 90’s rock album, such a tragedy this was the only album we got from Jeff Buckley.

Great album, different from the Springsteens other albums on the list that it deserves its place also.

Loved this album, straight into my frequent rotation.

Having only listened to machine head before, this one came as a bit of a pleasant surprise, didn’t realise how much Deep Purple influenced metal at this stage. Great album deserves to be on the list.

Over this project I have given poor scores to country albums and albums containing a lot of covers, so poor Willie didn’t have much chance here.

Absolute hip hop masterpiece, huge ar the time and has aged well too, so much better than the west coast gangster rap from the same era.

He certainly rambles, not for me

Yep got to give it to Courtney Love this is a great album, classic 90’s alt rock.

This is my favourite KoL album, I think KoL early albums are very underrated, this is clearly offset by how overrated sex on fire and use somebody are, I can see why they get a lot of hate.

But I think this is the one album you should listen to to get what KoL were about before having a go at arena rock, it’s not a masterpiece but a soild 4/5 album.

Very forgettable grunge album, not sure I’ll remember it in a weeks time.

This album is completely carried by tainted love, rest of the album isn’t great at all. So I can’t say this is an album you need to listen to before you die, save yourself 45 minutes of your life and just listen to tainted love.

Soild 90’s alt rock album that doesn’t outstay its welcome, pretty inoffensive which I think makes it easier to recommend to a wider audience hence should be listened to before you die.
But not interesting enough for my personal taste.

Another good album from REM, deserves to be on the list, but not quiet in the same league as mumour or automatic for the people.

Soild album deserves its place on the list but not as good as JuJu though so won’t be getting added to my frequent rotation.

Feels like a more experimental public enemy, but can see why folk see it as a poor man’s public enemy. I’m on the fence with this album, but think it’s worth at least 1 listen.

One of the great punk albums from 1977, different from the others which make it worthy of this list.

Just a good fun glam rock album, deserves to be on the list.

This album starts so strong but then never lives up to the first song. I get it’s a big album in terms of hair metal but really does just feel a bit cheesy now and not edgy at all. Not convinced with this being on the list.

This is one of the great Jazz albums, exactly what I want from a. Jazz album, accessible enough for dinner music, whole complex enough to sit down and really listen to, a masterpiece.
