789. Tricky - Maxinquaye

Release Date: 1995
Label: 4th & Broadway

Following on from Blue Lines and Dummy, this is another important and influential trip-hop album from Bristol. It's effect wasn't as immediate as the previous two, but it was another one I loved.

Rating: 8/10

725. Stereo MCs - Connected

Release Date: 1992
Label: 4th and Broadway

A couple of good singles, but otherwise an album that's sounds too dated to be relevant now.

Rating: 5/10

716. Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy - Hypocrisy is the Greatest Luxury

Release Date: 1992
Label: 4th & Broadway

I have come to the conclusion that many of these influencial hip-hop bands are unknown to me because of their terrible names. There'll be another example later on. I had hopes for this record when it started, but by the end it had been dragging for a while and I was relieved when it was over.
