Good rap album, such a great flow and doesn’t sound as cringe as some of the other gangsta rap albums from the 90’s. Love I can just kill a man and the RATM cover of it.

Never heard of the Mars volta before. This was a good modern prog rock album. Deserved place on the list,

I remember the hype when this album came out, wasn’t convinced at the time but safe to say Arctic Monkeys have went on to be one of the Brest British bands over the last 20 years. I do prefer AM to this album though.

I’d class myself as a casual jazz fan, probably about 4/5 jazz albums Iv listened to frequently. My all time favourite being kinda blue. So I was excited to see this on the list.

Enjoyed this, nice short songs easy to appreciate, much less of a challenge than bitches brew, but can tell this is a few years before kind of blue where miles would truly hone his craft. Great jazz album worth a list will be added to my rotation list, just not quite masterpiece level.

First time listening to Treasure but was actually listening to Heaven or Las Vegas earlier in the week (my own choice not through this project)

This is a beautiful album one you can really get lost in. Maybe being harsh but heaven or Las Vegas does feel the more
Complete album, which is stopping me giving treasure the full 5 stars. But more than deserves it’s place on the list and will be added to my regular rotation, just falls slightly short of the perfect album status.

This was better than Scott 2 that I listened to previously. Bit don’t know still didn’t really click with this album.

Loved this, obviously heard of Janis Joplin before but not Big Brother and the Holding Company. This album is right up my street great mix of blues rock and psychedelic. The album doesn’t have the greatest production but I think that along with Joplins vocals gives it a much more raw feel.

Only ever heard the cardigans hits, ie love fool from this album. This album is really good great 90s pop rock, deserves it’s place on the list. And personal enjoyment levels earns it 4 stars.

Interesting electronic album, not interesting enough to make me want to listen again.

First time listening to Sufjan Stevens given I was 17 when this album came out that is a surprise to me. Maybe Iv been living under a rock or he wasn’t that big in the U.K.

On first listen this one kinda just got lost in the background. A few more and Iv started to appreciated it a lot more. But still not fully clicked with me. But has now intrigued me to want to listen again, so this may be re rated in the future.

Great album from one of the all time great bands, with some absolute classic songs, paint it black, under my
Thumb. But a hard one for me to rate,

Some will see this as a masterpiece but I see it more as the point when the stones started to get to great, they would go on to make better albums, that unprecedented 4 album run from Beggars Banquet to Exile on Main Street, all of which top this album. Also in comparison to other masterpieces realised in 1966, pet sounds, revolver, blond on blond this album is just not quiet at that level.

Maybe harsh if the stones didn’t have better albums and this wasn’t released in 1966 it might have got the full 5 stars.

Get how influential this is for electronic music, but personally it got a bit boring and was a slog come the end.

First listen of this and frustrating it had to be through YouTube, even so very impressed feels like such an influential hip hop album. Hopefully can come back to this a rerate if they ever get it on streaming services.

Great mix of folk music. Deserves its place on the list

Enjoyable upbeat hip hop can’t help but dance listening to this. Deserves its place on the list.

Clearly a very influential hardcore punk album. Love the explosive energy, but after a few songs it all just sounds a bit samey. Maybe if I was still an angry teenager I’d love this.

Dull 80’s rock, sounds a bit like Phil Collins.

First time listening to this album and I know much more cars songs than I expected also enjoyed this more than I thought I would, a good mix of classic rock/new wave a sort of stepping stone towards the 80’s new wave that would follow this album. More than worthy of being on the list.

One of the Great alternative rock masterpieces. So influential on the 90’s bands that would follow Nirvana and Radiohead to name a few. Not only that it’s just such a great listen and mix of music.

Never heard of wild beasts before. Can’t say I really clicked with this album. Similar to other more recent albums not sure why this is on the list over under albums around the same time.
