Yadda yadda yadda vinyl slap
Come see the centrists convincing themselves that Starmer’s a decent guy and not a complete prick.
Wow Starmer finally drawing a line!

"If you say or imply that people cannot be English or British because of the colour of their skin, that mixed-heritage families owe you an explanation... If you say that they should now be deported, then mark my words - we will fight you with everything we have".

Wonder how I feel about one now.
I always find Stones albums to be patchy works. Some great tunes, some good ones and some forgettable ones mixed in.
This has a banger at the start though!

The Rolling Stones - Sticky Fingers

Much bigger fan of the Stooges than Iggy. It’s a good album, but it’s not going to trouble my 5.

Iggy Pop - The Idiot

This album was massive to me when I first heard it. Hope it still stands up.
Always wondered what would cause someone to leave the Buzzcocks just as they’re about to make it. This album was why!

Time for a bit off Teenage Fa….sorry, Big Star!
My fave of theirs, but not sure I like it enough to make my 5.
Thirteen’s a beauty though eh!

A lovely album and clearly his masterpiece….but is it good enough to make my 5? Not sure about that. There’s some competition out there for this one. Harry Nilsson - Nilsson Schmilsson

A great place to start for #5albums70s5
Gotta be my 2nd fave Doors album. It really signposts LA Woman throughout it. Shame there was nothing else after that. They really seemed to find themselves in the blues.

The Doors - Morrison Hotel

Maybe my fave Zep album. Not sure it’ll make my 5 but still good to give it a play again.
Led Zeppelin - 4

Doesn’t quite live up to the standards of Low. But then again what does?

David Bowie - Heroes

Is this still good enough to get in my 5?
It once was. Have I overplayed it over the years? Is this sacred cow ready for the slaughter?

It’s been a while since I last heard this. Also I’m not stoned right now.
It’s still a great album. My fave Floyd album.
Pink Floyd - DSOTM

If I can’t find a space for this in my 5 then…..that must be some album that’s keeping it out.
Bolan’s finest 33!
T.Rex - Electric Warrior

Nailed on for my 5!
The best post/Beatles album by any Beatle (don’t bother coming at me about that). Is this the first indie album?

Macca - RAM

Ok, hear me out. A Lord of the Rings re-make, but with these two taking the One Ring to Mordor:

It’s not in the 5albums but I don’t care.
It’s a good day today and I’m grooving to one of the greatest debuts ever.

This has gotta make my 5.
A beautifully chaotic and wonderful album.

This has a huge chance of making my 5.
Where would UK punk have been without this album?
Well the Pistol would have sounded and looked a lot different that’s for sure!
Sounds as great now as when I first heard it.
New York Dolls - New York Dolls

This is was once my fave Bowie album. But as time went by it got played less and less.
It’s like his Sgt Pepper, a good introduction that everyone can enjoy. But it gets overplayed quickly.
Could it make my 5? Let’s see.

David Bowie - Ziggy Stardust

An absolute cert for my top 5.
A timeless classic that never ages. The production on this is fantastic - and the pipes on the man!!! The pipes!

Marvin Gaye - What’s Going On.

Anyone here have a teenage babysitter? How much do you pay them?
February 12, 2025 at 9:25 PM
Now this could be in my top 5!
Again, it’s been a long time since this got played. Not sure why, it’s full of bangers.
The Velvet Underground - Loaded

I’ve not played this for a long time. Interesting to see how it resonates now I’m a middle aged man.

It’s gonna take some beating for this to not be top spot!
Bowie’s greatest album.

Big Brother - and the rise of the untalented idiot as an aspirational figure to aspire to become.
Using only a singular point of pop culture, where did it all go wrong for humanity?
