The BlueprintJay‐Z

Rated 10/10

Jay-Z’s Comeback masterpiece. This is one of those albums just click. Up there with the best hip hop albums

I tend to overlook this album when listening to Radiohead discovery. This is a good album and most likely deserves its place on the list. It just happened to be in the shadows of the other Radiohead true masterpieces. And I would still even prefer the Bends and Amenesica to this. But an average radio head album is still a very good album.

Big fan of pet sounds but first time hearing this album, it’s good but doesn’t quiet match up to pet sounds. Can see the later songs leading building up to it. Good album and worthy of the list.

Up there with the best synth pop albums Iv heard even more impressive it came out really early 80’s. This just missed out on a five due to being on the long side, and personal preference I’m unlikely to listen back to this album as 80’s synth pop just isn’t my thing.

This is REM’s 90’s masterpiece. Great album so many great songs. REM are such a great band and very underrated in the U.K. in my opinion.

Rated 8/10

A classic album but one that probably has not lasted the test of time and does sound a bit dated now. Not quiet a masterpiece but worth a listen none the less.

This is an interesting and different album but just far too long. Felt a bit of an effort to get through pick the 12 best songs and this becomes a great album.

If there is a Beatles album that could be removed from the list it’s probably this one, still a good album but too many covers and with their debut and hard days night already on the list I’m not sure what this album adds. Maybe harsh as if this was an album by another 60’s group I’d be singing its praises. But the Beatles already have 6 other albums on the list so I’m measuring it against those other albums.

Influential 80’s metal album, better metal albums would come off the back of this, and does sound a bit dated and cheesy now.

Rated 6/10

This is an interesting album but also a bit forgettable. Deserve to be on the list but can’t see me rushing back to to.
