650 - Sinead O'Connor - I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got

 

Year:  1990

Verdict:  Rubbish

Comments:  Skipped after 3 songs.  That meant we didn't get to hear the only decent song (Nothing Compares 2 U).  Irish pap.

617 - Neneh Cherry - Raw Like Sushi

Year:  1989

Verdict:  Indifferent

Comments:  Skipped after 3 songs.  A nice piece of late 80's chart music.  But once you've heard the hits, there's not a lot left that still sounds fresh or exciting.

102 - Buffalo Springfield - Buffalo Springfield Again

Did not have.

122 - The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Are You Experienced

Year:  1967

Verdict:  Excellent then Good

Comments:  Listened to entire album.  One of us loved every minute of this and was dancing around the living room.  The other loved it to start with, then it became a bit 60's for a bit, before becoming less poppy for the end.  Nice.

630 - De La Soul - 3 Feet High and Rising

Year:  1989
Verdict:  Good

Comments:  Listened to half of the album.  One of us loves this album from back in the day.  The other can see the charm, but it's really not the sort of thing they're in to.

84 - The Beatles - Revolver

Year:  1966

Verdict:  Good

Comments:  Listened to half of the album.  All the songs on this album are great.  The trouble with The Beatles is that we've heard them so much and so often in our lives, that we can only stand for a limited amount of Beatles mania.  The Beatles are great, this album is great, but we just prefer our Beatles in smaller portions.

320 - Joni Mitchell - Court and Spark

Year:  1974

Verdict:  Indifferent

Comments:  Skipped after 3 songs.  To be honest, just a bit boring.  Hippy 70's love songs.

263 - Yes - Close to the Edge

Year:  1972

Verdict:  Good

Comments:  Only 3 songs on album, so listened to it all.  Even though it was a little Spinal Tap-esque in places, it was still great.  Prog Rock master class.  Would listen to again.

We're back...

It's been an age, but we're back working through the 1001 albums.  Here goes...
