Look Up - Ringo Starr

I've never known an album to so closely match my expectations. Starr goes country. A collection of middle-of-the-road inoffensive songs. Listenable but in no way memorable.

Who Let The Dogs Out - Lambrini Girls

The less I say about this, probably the better. It is critically acclaimed by some, which doesn't surprise me.

Nonetheless – Pet Shop Boys

A good album that shows they are still capable of writing a catchy tune. A few really good songs. No absolute stand outs but still an enjoyable listen.

What A Devastating Turn of Events - Rachel Chinouriri

A decent indie pop album with R&B elements. Lacks any standout moments but not bad at all. Can see why it’d appeal to others but I didn’t feel much connection to the music.

Blood Sugar Sex Magik - Red Hot Chilli Peppers

Not a huge fan of the slap bass funk. Tried to be objective but the album tracks were a little weak, for me. A few good tracks, and of course, the incredible Under The Bridge.

Close To You - Carpenters

A great one to start with. A beautiful album whose charm goes well beyond the infamous singles. A lovely listen throughout.
