Rolling Stone's 306th greatest album of all time (424th in the 2020 list)
Absolutely stunning album and great to have a re-listen as part of my journey through Rolling Stone's top 500 albums of all time. There is not a bad song here, and the range of styles and influences are so diverse that each song could plausibly be a different artist. From the opener of Devil's Haircut to the sublime New Pollution and the wonderful Where Its At, there is no filler at all.

Rolling Stone's 221st greatest album of all time
My brother bought me this album on minidisc as a birthday present in 2001 I think. Prior to that I hadn't even realised you could buy albums on minidisc.
I didn't get into it then and I really struggled to get into it now. I like a bit of lo-fi stuff, but for me it was a step too far, and the production meant it was hard for me to get into. Just not for me.

Rolling Stone's 409th greatest album of all time
This album should have been far higher up the RS list in my view. It may be that I was made to listen to it a lot growing up, but I still listen to it a lot these days. So many cracking songs on here, from the title track to People Are Strange (which will always remind me of @The Lost Boys (1987) ) to Love Me Two Times to the epic closer When The Music's Over.

Something To Say
I still remember the first time I heard this record and I listened to it all the way through lying in bed. Eminem was my gateway into rap music when I was in my early teens, which inevitably led onto Tupac, Snoop Dogg, Biggie, Public Enemy and the like, but when I first heard Straight Outta Compton it was like being taken on a journey in the back seat of some banged up car around the burnt out, bullet ridden streets of Compton, CA. Some people may sneer at the inclusion of this album and claim that it doesn’t deserve to be admired due to its glorification of gang violence, sexual abuse and murder. However this album isn’t glorious in any way, NWA aren’t boasting about this kind of behaviour taking place in their hometown, they’re condemning it. This is an album born out of frustration, dissatisfaction and fury for the kind of environment that these guys were brought up in and it is actually inspiring in a lot of ways to kids that come from areas where their friends are getting shot night after night and with the current situation in some American states, this album is probably more relevant than ever. The album does generalise, but it also speaks the truth, there is no denying that the US police were and still are largely made up of racist bigots that abuse the power that they are given. Drugs, sexism and violence are simply a part of the culture in some of the poorer parts of modern America and this album doesn’t shy away from that, it wears its heart on its sleeve and I think that it is one of the most powerful statements to come out of modern music and one that is unfortunately still just as relevant today, 29 years later.
