Sessions

Despite its extraordinary length, Harrison succeeds at keeping the audience's attention for most of the album. His masterful combination of beautiful melodies and striking lyrics make this the best solo album by any of the Beatles.

Year

Though slightly overlong, KIWANUKA stands out from the crowd with its catchy tunes and interesting lyrics.

Year

Zevon combines some pop belters with some songs that sound like they have been written by a teen trying and failing to be profound. An inconsistent album, often let down by his affected voice and ludicrous lyrics.

Year

An album of two halves. I don't quite buy him as a rocker, but his ballads are second-to-none.

Year

I failed to gel with this album. It felt like a soundtrack or a Broadway musical album, rather than a selection of pop bangers I could sing and dance along to.

For me, possibly Madonna's best album. A pop masterpiece - JD

Year

Nicely smooth and jazzy, with an enjoyably retro tone.

Year

Murphey exquisitely merges gospel and piano-rock with his innately Southern soul to create a selection of songs that evoke a series of emotions. The album challenged all existing prejudices I had about country music.

Year

The perfect rock album, book-ended by arguably The Who's greatest tracks: Baba O'Riley and Won't Get Fooled Again.

Year

Chaka proves she still has a powerhouse voice, and belts out some great pop songs, yet for such a short album it does run out of steam quite quickly

Year

An overly experimental album. Too much noise and interruption distracts from the lyrics for most of the album

A flawed masterpiece, with so many interesting musical and lyrical ideas - JD

Year

I really didn't click with this. Her voice and flow are nice, but the constant use of modulated synths on every track made it an unpleasant listening experience.

Year

Vibrant, aggressive, and angry in all the best ways, The Libertines is an authentically punky and rambunctious rock album.

Year

Oye Cómo Va stands out as the best tune, but it still serves as a pleasant introduction to the world of Latin jazz and mambo for novices to the genre.

Year

El Búho (aka Robin Perkins) successfully combines Latin rhythms with electronic ambient beats in this album.

Year

Nicks' distinctive voice, raw with emotion, is as strong as ever here. Having grown accustomed to her work with Fleetwood Mac, I couldn't help but feel something was missing without those harmonies.

Year

I just love this album. Granted, the second half of the album isn't as strong as the first, but when James Taylor's beautifully calm voice, excellent acoustic guitar work, and catchy melodies combine as well as they do for most of this album, he can't be beat. 

Year

The first two tracks are a bit too chaotic for my taste, but the rest of the album is full of interesting music and Robert Plant's tender vocals, which one might not associate with the hard rock label often attributed to The Zep.

Year

This is an album of rare quality, every song is brilliant and innovative, whether they're indie rock anthems like Up With People or gorgeous ballads like The Old Gold Shoe.

Year

Whilst I don't think much of McCartney as a rocker, he cannot escape his knack for writing catchy tunes.

Year

Bookended by some genuinely inspired psychedelic rock, the middle of the album is less convincing, but nonetheless stands up as a great, era-defining record.
