Nick of Time by Bonnie Raitt
Somewhere, on a desert road in U.S.A, is a dusty drinks bar about to erupt into a fight. This album playing on the jukebox. I got vibes of my distant memories of the film Road House. No sure how accurate that is. Favourite Songs: Love Letter Real Man The Road’s my middle name 492/500

Nightflight to Venus by Boney M
Funky as f*ck. I took a sidestep from my top 500 album countdown with this absolute banger of an album (maybe it appears higher on that list) Every song is golden. I can’t believe ive been enjoying the song Rasputin all these years without hearing it in the context of the album. The opening song…

II by Boyz II Men
495/500 Hot on the heels of Shakira’s album earlier, comes Boyz II Men’s II album. Pretty chill this one. It seemed to melt into the background as I was working. All in all pretty relaxing. Would recommend.

497/500 I didn’t understand a word on the album. But that didn’t matter. I enjoyed it a lot. It became great background music to work to. I don’t think my leg stopped tapping from start to finish.

Suicide by Suicide
This album was okay to my ears. Some of the repetitive parts got a little boring for me. No disrespect — just not really my bag, this one. Maybe I’ll try a re-listen in the future.

Ask Rufus by Rufus Featuring Chaka Khan
Ive never been a huge R&B fan, but what I have heard (mostly from top list recommendations) I’ve enjoyed. And this album goes to the top of those. Wow. I loved the whole album, but the final song, “Egyptian Song” just blew me away. Favourite Songs: At Midnight (My Love Will Lift You Up) Hollywood…

Funeral by Arcade Fire
Starting back on the Rolling Stone top 500 albums listing. Why not. At number 500 there is Funeral by Arcade Fire. This is already one of my favourite albums so is a nice start to the chart. Favourite Songs: Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels) Neighborhood #3 (Power Out)

Found my old iPod classic with all my music still on there. Loads of it. Just gotta get it working with my linux install. First step to getting my music listening out of big tech.

Finally got a Casio F-91W watch. Similar, or perhaps the same, as I had as a child. Does pretty much everything a watch needs to do, without all of the modern “smart” rubbish many “watches” have nowadays.
