Exile On Main Street

The Rolling Stones

1/5

Style of music sadly just not my bag. Some minor Dylan-esque parts, but mostly just that style of American music isn’t a favourite.

Live And Dangerous

3/5

Musically ‘good’ but too sweaty, racist, violent, deep-south feeling. Not my cuppa T.

4/5

Pink Moon is my favourite, but this is up there. A touch melancholy at times, and sublime at others.

Arcade Fire

3/5

Pretty meh for an Arcade Fire album.

1/5

The Seldom Seen Kid
