I always knew “Paranoid” by Black Sabbath was considered a classic, especially since I love a few of the famous tracks dearly, but it’s only after sitting down and listening to the whole thing that I finally appreciate it fully. There are so many bangers, and even the “worst” songs have charm … but howContinue reading ““Paranoid” – Songs Ranked”

“Larks’ Tongues In Aspic” – Songs Ranked
I’m loving King Crimson more with each passing day. Over time I’m building up a nice catalogue of songs I enjoy, which in turn is making some of their albums an excellent experience on the whole. “Larks’ Tongues In Aspic” was initially too out-there for my tastes, but with repeated listens I’m starting to reallyContinue reading ““Larks’ Tongues In Aspic” – Songs Ranked”
“Bat Out Of Hell” – Songs Ranked
I’ve always liked Meat Loaf and his bombastic approach to Rock music, but for some reason recently I can’t get his “Bat Out Of Hell” era out of my head. It has some banger songs … as well as some forgettable ones. How would I rank them all? Before we begin, you can check outContinue reading ““Bat Out Of Hell” – Songs Ranked”
“Discipline” (King Crimson) – Every Song Ranked
Robert Fripp was well and truly done with King Crimson in the late seventies, but he formed a new band with Adrian Belew on guitar and vocals, Bill Bruford on drums and Tony Levin on bass and called it “Discipline”. Their debut album took the same name, but Fripp decided to revive the King CrimsonContinue reading ““Discipline” (King Crimson) – Every Song Ranked”
“The Queen Is Dead” (The Smiths) – Every Song Ranked
“The Queen Is Dead” is probably The Smiths’ best album. It has a lot of my favourite tracks of theirs, and the whole thing makes for a consistent listen … but how would I rank all the tracks? Before we begin, you can check out some of my related blog posts below: OK 10 –Continue reading ““The Queen Is Dead” (The Smiths) – Every Song Ranked”
“Electric Ladyland” (Jimi Hendrix) – Every Song Ranked
Everyone remembers “Are You Experienced” as being the definitive Jimi Hendrix album, but I think there’s a good case to be made for “Electric Ladyland”. It feels more focused from start to finish, and the highs are truly extraordinary. How would I rank every track? Before we begin, you can check out some of myContinue reading ““Electric Ladyland” (Jimi Hendrix) – Every Song Ranked”
“Are You Experienced” – Songs Ranked
When talking about the greatest debut albums in music history, you’d be remiss not to mention Jimi Hendrix’s “Are You Experienced”. It’s a masterclass in guitar playing and Hard Rock, and there are so many songs here I love. But how would I rank them all? (I’m ranking the seventeen songs on the Spotify version,Continue reading ““Are You Experienced” – Songs Ranked”
Every Beatles Cover Song Ranked
Especially in their earlier years, the Beatles were known to take a Rock ‘n’ Roll classic and make it their own … for better or worse. Thanks to a suggestion by commenter “John”, I’ll be ranking all twenty-five Beatles cover songs from worst to best – if you have an idea for a ranking youContinue reading “Every Beatles Cover Song Ranked”
“Red” (King Crimson) – Songs Ranked
In my initial dive into King Crimson’s work, two albums stood out to me – their debut (of course), and “Red”. This excellent collection of five hard-hitting songs was apparently Curt Cobain’s favourite album, and it’s quickly climbing my ranks too. How would I rank every song? You can check out some of my relatedContinue reading ““Red” (King Crimson) – Songs Ranked”
Top 20 Doors Songs
Everyone knows the Doors. They have a few hits that are easily recognisable, and Jim Morrison is well-known as one of music’s great frontmen. What people don’t know, however, is that their discography is filled to the brim with bangers. I’ve narrowed down my top twenty Doors songs based on personal preference, but if youContinue reading “Top 20 Doors Songs”
