581. Steve Earle - Guitar Town

Release Date: 1986
Label: MCA

Fans of The Wire may recognise Steve Earle as a minor character from that show. I didn't. This is a fairly good country album which doesn't really do anything to elevate it.

Rating: 6/10

429. Crusaders - Street Life

Release Date: 1979
Label: MCA

Quentin Taratino fans may be familiar with the only great song on this album, the opening number (and title track). Unfortunately the rest of the album does not reach those same dizzy heights and ultimately it's a bit of a disappointment.

Rating: 6/10

403. Joe Ely - Honky Tonk Masquerade

Release Date: 1978
Label: MCA

This is another album that Spotify don't seem to have. Apparently The Clash were big fans though, even if their fans weren't.

271. Lynyrd Skynyrd - Pronounced Leh-Nerd Skin-Nerd

Release Date: 1973
Label: MCA

Released four years before a tragic plane crash left the band bereft of half their members, 'Pronounced...' is the highlight of a short career. If you've ever heard 'Free Bird', the rest of the album is as you'd expect. If you don't like that, you won't like this.

Rating: 8/10
