bloody annoying how Spotify doesn't have the normal album version for All About Eve... and I don't want to use Youtube
Youtube didn't have a version that matched the original track listing either, I had to resort to searching down each track manually in the end. As much as I enjoyed what I heard, 37 songs on the re-issue is a bit much for one sitting!
John Martyn - Solid Air
Solid Air - My favourite John Martyn song that wasn't on One World (of those I've heard, at least).
Over the Hill - Straight-forward, upbeat, pleasant.
Don’t Want to Know - YES.
I’d Rather Be The Devil - Quite the change in tune from the last song!
Love the long instrumental.
Go Down Easy - Grew on me.
Dreams By the Sea - Has its moments.
May You Never - Lovely.
The Man in the Station - Magical.
The Easy Blues - I still don't know what to make of this, no matter how many times I hear it.
8/10 again.

Adding Cat Stevens - Teaser and the Firecat to the list. 
John Martyn - Solid Air
7/10. Not really much to say about this, it was good I guess

I think a few of my recommendations have gone by, so I'll recommend Bill Withers - Just As I Am.

Psychedelic Porn Crumpets - High Visceral {Part 1}
Cornflake - Not a bad intro.
Cubensis Lenses - Interesting sound, but not quite to my tastes.
Marmalade March - Music video on Youtube was fun; song was just okay. Certainly 'psychedelic'.
...and the Addled Abstraction of Being - Alright. A bit long.
High Visceral - Very nice instrumental.
Surf's Up - Also good.
Gallop to Southport - Odd.
Found God in a Tomato - Nah.
Entropy - Noise.
Denmark / Van Gogh & Gone - Clearly just isn't for me.
3/10, I'm afraid.

Not as bad as Unknown Mortal Orchestra's
Psychedelic Porn Crumpets - High Visceral
Tough one, I'll go with 6/10. Some tracks I really liked, some that were just a collection of sounds.

Thoughts on a poll theme for #110? We could go back to decades, or select by genre instead?
The 1975
Crazily, these guys met at my high school
The City - Vaguely recall this, it's pretty good.
M.O.N.E.Y. - Not sure about this one
Chocolate - Okay
S*x - Not bad
Talk! - nope
Heart Out - Pretty good
Settle Down - Nice
Robbers - eh
Girls - Not bad
She Way Out - alright
Menswear - no
Uh, 6/10? had its moments, otherwise mediocre

The 1975 : The 1975
The 1975 - I guess they open each of their albums with this track? I didn't like it this time either, but it's a cool idea.
The City - Unremarkable.
M.O.N.E.Y. - Nope, nope, nope.
Chocolate - And all of a sudden, a song that I like!
Sex - Background music.
Talk! - Better.
An Encounter - Short instrumental, alright, inoffensive.
Heart Out - Also good.
Settle Down - Also also good.
Robbers - Not quite.
Girls - Meh.
12 - Same as the previous instrumental. Ambient, not unpleasant.
She Way Out - Nice.
Menswear - First half was just noise; second half was catchy, but there was still a bit too much going on for my tastes.
Pressure - Passable.
Is There Somebody Who Can Watch You - Different. Emotional. But too slow.
5/10, one more than they got from me last time.

The 19752, otherwise known as The 3,900,625. One day late but whatever, I can do the BH&R review without even listening to it.
The 1975 - this seems familiar...
The City - eh
M.O.N.E.Y. - eh
Chocolate - eh
Sex - nice enough. Is this Mr Brightside from "his" perspective?
Talk! - at this point I stopped concentrating for a bit
----
Heart Out - alright
Settle Down - ok
Robbers - ok
Girls - I like the guitar
She Way Out - ok
Menswear - alright
Pressure - mm I prefer Muse's 'Pressure'
Is There Somebody Who Can Watch You -
that felt really long. I'd say it was quite consistent, nothing particularly good or particularly bad, but too many being too similar. I just don't find it interesting.
so 4/10

Okay onto the album whose title inspired my first blog 
I don't think I'll give a score (since I've listened to this to death for 3 years), just give my thoughts.
Take A Bow - has grown on me since I first started listening to Muse
Starlight - check out those arpeggios though. To honest, it's a bit cheesy. Still has 118 plays on Google Play though.
Supermassive Black Hole - if you take the music video of Childish Gambino's This Is America but play this song on top, it syncs up perfectly. Not a word of lie.
Map of the Problematique - yes
Soldier's Poem - nice but it's also skippable
Invincible - It has grown 'off' me a little. I do like the breakdown and solo a lot though.
Assassin - yes. The Grand Omega Bosses version is truly excellent though.
Exo-Politics - lyrically the most ridiculous song on the album. I think it's safe to say 2006 was Matt Bellamy's peak conspiracy-theory phase.
City of Delusion - yes. Also that high A tho
Hoodoo - definitely one of the most overlooked Muse songs, but has some of their best lyrics and the instrumental is on point too.
Knights of Cydonia - Also one of the most bonkers songs they ever did, but it really did shape their style.

Glorious - can they play this live more often pls
