366 Albums – January

I thought for 2024 I would listen to an album I’ve not listened to before every day. They could be new releases, they could be old. Artists whose songs I may already know, or ones I’m totally unfamiliar with. The selection is completely random.

I’ve devised a simple rating system:

• ❤️ Repeated immediately
• 👎 Wouldn’t listen again
• 💀 Awful
