Booker T. Jones’s latest solo effort is significantly more interesting than the obvious question of what exactly a “potato hole” is; Jones is backed by the Drive By Truckers and Neil Young adds his instantly recognizable lead guitar to nine of the album’s ten tracks – which include a cover of Outkast’s “Hey Ya!” and Tom Waits’s “Get Behind The Mule – and the result is pretty much what you’d expect: a fun collection of soul and gritty rock.

Rating: 7.5 / 10

Andre 3000 and Big Boi’s masterpiece and one of the best and most endlessly entertaining hip-hop albums of all time, Stankonia is a funkadelic tour of a distant world that seems to encompass both the sweltering streets of Hotlanta and the depths of outer space, like the acid-tinged, post-coitus dreams of some pimp supreme.

Grade: 4.9 / 5
