Montserrat Figueras - Lux Feminae 900-1600 9.5/10
I seldom give albums 9/10, and I can't remember if I've ever given a 10/10. However, there is something special about this record. I don't think it will find any appreciation amongst you lot, but worth a shot if you're looking for something different.
Ale Moller - Hasten och Tranan 8.5/10
I really enjoyed this album of Swedish folk music. Some of Moller's work with Frifot can be a bit too abstract for me at times, but this record is just good tunes.
Trapped Under Ice - Big Kiss Goodnight 8/10
If you like a bit of 'metalcore,' you can't go wrong with this record. Has a sense of humour about itself as well.
The Beatles - Abbey Road 8.5/10
It's late-period Beatles; do I need to say any more?
Billy Joel - The Stranger 8.5/10
I think it is on par with the other Joel album that I have, 52nd Street. If you want some 1970s pop rock, check this record out.
The Raglan Baroque Players - Locatelli: Complete Opus 1 Concerti Grossi 7.7/10
I have another album of Locatelli's opus 1 works, but it is not a complete run. I prefer those other performances, but this is still a fine record.
The Locatelli Trio - Locatelli: Complete Opus 8 Sonatas 7/10
As an album experience, it is a fine record, though nothing particularly jumps out.
Robert Palmer - Pressure Drop 6.7/10
It is not a bad album, but it does not touch Sneakin' Sally Through the Alley or Secrets.
Nucleus - Alleycat 7/10
If you are in the mood for some jazz/funk/rock fusion, this record might be for you. You dig?
