some really high highs but some tracks that are just a bit forgettable for me

FKA twigs - EUSEXUA Afterglow
73

first listen 14/11/2025

Charli xcx - House featuring John Cale
85

very cool! such a shame it is for a movie that is inevitably going to be terrible

Magdalena Bay - This Is the World (I Made It for You) / Nice Day
90

'Nice Day' reminds me of mbv's 'sometimes' but it just doesn't go anywhere which is such a shame because sometimes is one of my favourite songs of all time

Bob Dylan - Highway 61 Revisited
85

Will need a few relistens to properly appreciate the songwriting on this one, but one of my favourite Bob albums instrumentally

Fishmans - LONG SEASON
83

will benefit from repeat listens. the last 6 minutes or so, from when that guitar comes in, was my favourite part

The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Electric Ladyland
93

Outrageous. The best a guitar has ever sounded (along with Marquee Moon, Heaven or Las Vegas, and Loveless)

The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Voodoo Chile
100

You HAVE to listen to this with decent headphones- the way the music slides from one ear to the other is other worldly

The Beatles - All You Need Is Love
90

Cheesy, Overplayed... but still brilliant

The Beatles - Help!
83

Really dips in quality from Act Naturally to Tell Me What You See but otherwise this is so fantastic- take those out and it would be approaching the high 80s. Favourites: I Need You, Help!, Yesterday

The Beatles - I Need You
98

So underrated, fell in love with this one as soon as I heard it all those years ago- pretty incredible songwriting effort for one of George's first songs

The Beatles - Help!
100

Pop perfection

Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin IV
88

was about to rate this 87 but then that end of when the levee breaks hit...

Pet Shop Boys - Behaviour
72

Agree with one of the top reviews- the production on this is great and I think the suit the (slightly) more downtempo sound but the songs just aren't as memorable or catchy. Maybe its a grower but this is a step down from their 80s work. My favourites: Being Boring, So Hard

Roxy Music - Stranded
77

First listen 12/11/2025. My least favourite Roxy Music album.... but it's still such a fun time

R.E.M. - New Adventures in Hi-Fi
87

Superb album, one of their best and therefore highly underrated on here. Most albums over an hour long tend to drag at around minute 50 but not this- an hour and chance but you want it to end (Electrolite is the perfect closer and puts you at peace that the album is over!) A perfect mix of their early jangle sounds, the noise of monster, and the magic of Out of Time and Automatic... E-Bow and Electrolite are the clear highlights of the album and on the right day I'd be quite happy to ... read more

R.E.M. - Electrolite
100

One of the most beautiful songs of all time- exists on the edge of pure bliss and indescribable sadness. Perhaps a little cliche, but it makes me nostalgic for a time and place that I have never been to and can't really place.

R.E.M. - E-Bow the Letter
100
