Ogden's Nut Gone Flake

En otras épocas quizás lo hubiera apreciado más

The spoken parts ruined the album for me

Fine

For langt

It's not really my jam, but I can see how it would appeal to those for whom it is.

Ok for what it was

I don’t know. Kind of boring, generic psychedelic music. Meh.

Rene and Mad John are standout songs, but the rest of the album is endemic of the place and time it was recorded: loud, distorted unnecessarily, uninspired.

INCREDIBLY dated. Sure this made people laugh back in the day, but today its just cringe. A very generous 2 for not completely sucking

I liked this in places but the wacky psychedelic stuff grated. Probably the worst example yet of talking between tracks.

kind of a weird album. british rock interspersed with narration tha seems to tell some sort of story. different, but would have been better without the narration.

It's like I went back and made a list of all the things about 60s and 70s music that I didn't like and this band used it as their inspiration. It's definitely music, but yish.

Sounds like a BBC teleplay interstitched with psych rock. The music is neat and I like the idea but fuck me is it hard to understand the narrated portions haha. (2.5/5)

Started off ok, but got progressively worse as it went on. And holy shit the spoken word "stories" annoyed the shit out of me.

I've listened to this album twice in a row. And I just don't "get" it. The narration on the second half for the concept is such a cockney accent, and the songs are so "look at us being goofy" that I can't really take the musicality seriously AT ALL. Psychedelic albums are always a problem because the songs themselves are more about giving an image and not meaning a lot in a literal sense. Listen to Cream's "SWLABR" or "Tales of Brave Ulysses" and you'll see what I mean. It was the same here for the Small Faces, they were meant to give some kind of imagery and I was just.... not seeing it. The first couple of songs are good, but even songs like "Rene" is just... it sounds like something you sing when drunk at a bar. "Song of a Baker" sounds a lot like The Who. Yeah, the accents, I just... can't get past it. Next.

Cool that the Great White song “Afterglow” actually came from Small Faces. 2/5 for poor Spotify recording.

Op eoa manier is dit net op de verkeerde manier oud geworden voor mij. Te belegen allemaal.

Geen commentaar verder.

this seems bad but we will see? I think could be 1 star but I'm feeling generous.

Pass

Psych old euro rock? sure, its alrite

Another very forgettable psychy folky thing

Hmmm... Iconic cover, but I really didn't enjoy the album as much as I hoped I might. Not going to listen again, so it's 2 stars.

Entertaining if a little dated. Doubt that side two would hold up on repeated plays.

Typical 1960s nutty psychedelic madness. I honestly thought that Eric Idle was the narrator on side 2. Monty Python meets The Kinks. Lazy Sunday is still a brilliant song and stands the test of time. Side two was a crazy concept, but fun if you could ride that silly wave. Admirable but I don’t feel I need to listen to it again..

Ok prog/ psych rock

Jur zei leuk album maar ik vond ‘m prima tot vervelend. Weinig behoefte om dit nog een keer op de zetten maaarrr mis weer de 2,5

Strong 4

Interesting listen. I was kind of digging it. May have to listen to it again.

This was very odd and quirky

I know this is considered an early concept album, but it just wasn’t very good.

Boring

This at least sounded like music but I didn’t really care about it. Was fine.

Didn’t hate it. I felt like watching Austin Powers after I listened to it. I’m not sure if that’s insulting or not. I don’t think I’d listen to this again.

A couple of enjoyable songs, but really not my sort of thing. The Stanley Unwin tracks were just excruciatingly bad.

The two and a half songs I didn’t skip were OK, I guess.

This album might (?) have been something back in its day, but it definitely fails to rise to the occasion today, offering only mundane gibberish. And Lazy Sunday is not enough of a track to save it.

This is okay for me. Not revolutionary or anything, so not sure it has a place in the 1001 list. Some enjoyable songs, but Faces outshines Small Faces for me.

Disappointed - Blur’s grandads.

This album is more psychedelic and far out than I was expecting, so that in and of itself made it a bit more interesting than I was expecting. That being said it didn't really resonate or make an impression on me at all. Seems fine.

Not too exceptional, but I enjoyed Rene and Lazy Sunday. Fun and over the top british

It went medieval music halfway through. This era is so hit or miss.

I can see why it was popular in its time. No fault of the band or this album, just the passage of time and the countless bands and albums that sounded like this, it really just doesn't do too much for me.

La musique est bonne, du bon psychedelique que je n'avais jamais entendu. Mais les parties narratives à partir de la moitié de l'album sont vraiment non nécessaires et un major turn off

Small Faces try to gone done did a Sgt. Pepper. And fail.

Interesting listen, especially the back half with the spoken word nonsense. This was a decent album but probably not one I'll ever feel compelled to revisit.

This album is ok. The first few songs are good, but the songs later in the album fall off for me. The weird commercial interludes at the beginning of songs don't work for me either, maybe because I wasn't paying attention to them and I didn't really hear what they were saying. Also what a weird album name. Favorite song: Ogden's Nut Gone Flake Worst song: Lazy Sunday

British early experimental prog rock

The album was ok. Best song for me was Lazy Sunday which kinda reminded me of Pink Floyd’s Syd Barrett doing Beatles music experimentally. Other than that nothing really stood out to me as memorable.

yk i got the mashy

Its psychadelic and over the top british, I did not enjoy it particulary much but it has some charm to it

Started strong...kind of ended weakly. Not my cup of tea. 2.5/5

Honestly I have nothing to say anymore another average album that I didn’t love and nothing stuck out to me. But I liked the intros of the hungry intruder, the journey, etc.. It was fun.

songs tell lil stories before getting into them Mad John was good

It seems like everyone knows and enjoys the title track, but I admit I had never heard the full album before it came up in 1001 albums. Its not a great album, with some rock-opera style stuff filling out 7 tracks. 2/5

Good 60s rock, but pretty standard 60s rock (when they actually play). The story time pieces of the album are bizarre, and not in a good way.

Nada relevante

Psicodelia conceitual, mas sem impressionar muito.

weird

2.5*

Didn’t do much for me.

Uh ... No. D+

Eh...

Tråk! Vad gör detta på listan....

This is the Irish version of the 60s. Highly indifferent to it.

I really wanted to like thus, I do like Small Faces generally, but they keep having these narrative bits to start off every song later on thus album and it was really pretty annoying.

Well come on, it wasn't all bad. I was there longer than anybody and I'm fine, how are you? Why do you ask? 3:30. Favorite tracks: Song of a Baker

What in the almighty Christ

enjoy the first two songs. Afterglow a fun energetic vibe to it. Rene - slightly weirder. cockney accented lyrics, like more of a daft sang vibe to it, catchy, and easy to relax to, foot tap along to. Song of a Baker dull. Lazy Sunday, more cockney chat. Irritating. part 2 chatting gobshite. largely strongly disliked it.

Old shite

I think I've only heard one or two songs by the Small Faces. I like them, so this could be a decent album. Here's hoping! Track one. Ok, this isn't what I was expecting. At all. This is quite progrock-esque. I mean, there are no shit lyrics to put up with I guess. Track two. This is more like what I was expecting. Bit of acoustic guitar type stuff. Is he deliberately mumbling? Ok, here we go. Yes! This is more like it! Good chorus. "I'm happy just to be with you". Yes mate, that's the stuff. Track three. Decent. Has slowed the tempo a bit, but not too much, we're still away. I mean, it's not great. It's barely a song. They've padded it out a bit with a bunch of do-waddy-waddy stuff. Oooh, it's fading back in! Have I spoken too soon? No. Track four. This makes think of the Kinks? Anyone else? "Well she's Rene, the docker's delight, and a ship's in every night" Sounds like a whore? They've written a song about a prostitute haven't they? Brilliant. The scamps. It's quite good too. Catchy. Bet she put her prices up after this came out. Plenty of double-entendres here. Track five. Oooh, we've gone electric. This is heavier. Ahhh, nonsense lyrics are here. He's not much of a baker is he? Puts some water in a jug, bakes some flour - which will do what exactly? you'll just have hot flour?? And he doesn't do anything with the salt. Just stores it. Nice one. Never gonna run out of that. Not gonna eat fuck all either. Nice enough tune though, fair play. Track six. I know this one! Excellent song. Not surprised he's not getting with his neighbours if he's blasting the tunes out. It's a Sunday lad, turn it down, have a bit of respect! "Laaaaaaazzy Sunday afternooon, I've got no mind to worry! Yes, that's gold that. This album's got better and better. Track seven. Am I sitting what on my what now? Bit of a change of direction this. What's going on? It's very theatric, I'll give it that. More chat. What? I'm with him, and then he slips into another language. Or gibberish. Not sure which. He's lost me. "Now as eaved and his deep approachy...", "What is the folly of this half disappearing of the moony most?". You what mate? You fucking what?? Track eight. This intro has hints of Foxy Lady doesn't it? I wonder which came first? This is decent enough. Yeah, I like this. Nice sound on these drums. "Rooooolling oveeer!". Excellent. Track nine. More of this chatty fucker. "After a little lapse of time, Stan became deep hungry in his tumbload". He wants to have a word with the baker, he'll warm him up some flour. "Here I am, tiny fly, can I share your shepherd's pie?". I mean, it's not great is it. And now Stan's talking to a fly. And letting him have his pie! Track ten. Christ more chat. The fly wants to say thanks for the pie. Ok. Wants to offer something in return? He's a fly, what's he gonna have to help old Stan?? Does he know where the other half of the moon is? He's a fly! This guy is reminding me of the Mandarin from Iron Man. Just goes off on his own every now and then, but he finds his way back. "Hovery, hovery, hovery, and out with the magic wordys". Easier to just go with it. Track eleven. "I must leave you here, and he pointed here.." Did he? The fly? What was it he pointed with? "with his sort of fly type fingold" course he did, course he did. Next! John sounds like he's loving life to be fair. He's happy. Leave him alone. Ahhh, he's won them over. Good. Track twelve. Here is, Mad John. Bet he's sound. Seems they speak the same language. Bit of luck. Hang on, Stan's only just realised that the moon disappears when the sun comes up? How old is he? And we're back to a song. "Life is just like a bowl of All-Bran, you wake in the morning and it's there". Not in my house mate, I have to make my breakfast manually, the old fashioned way. Here we are, the Mandarin's back. Remember the special words?? You'll have to write them down for me, sorry. And that's it? Ok. Well, it wasn't what I was expecting. But I think I enjoyed it. Maybe. Not sure I'd listen to it again. Lazy Sunday is a proper song though.

Brings Thomas Frank's book title to mind: 'The Conquest of Cool: Business Culture, Counterculture, and the Rise of Hip Consumerism'. Pleased to say the Small Faces chapter has a happy ending: these epigones didn't make it big with their mildly amusing twaddle.

Gekk ekki alveg upp. Ekki leiðinlegt samt. Bara.. meh.

it was a rather boring listen and didn't evoke any emotions, which when I listen to music is the number one thing that keeps me involved in music.

A kao slatka mi je ta priča u drugom dijelu albuma al nije sad to ne znam ja šta. Prvi dio albuma mi je BAŠ bzvz. Već sam ga zaboravila 🙅🏼‍♀️. Happiness Stan mi je bila dobra pjesma i to čak bolja u mono verziji nego stereo, et sam da se zna, možda jer mi je glazba na ovom albumu nekad iritantna pa lakše slušat mono, who knows. Pokušala sam izvuć trojku al je nestala ko polovica mjeseca. Eto dvojka.

Sviđa mi se čak, al je onooo forgettable as fuck.

Levy tuntui lähinnä pitkitetylle tylsälle vitsille ilman kunnon huipennusta.

... of its time.

Simply passed me by.

Average psychedelic rock combined with weird stories that could of been written by Rolf Dahl?

Silly Fun Song orientated They are having a good time Like to hear church bells Not keen on these pianos Like the spoken word bits The Journey is the best song on here Sounds like a comedy record

It's such a shame that the recording of the best track on Ogden's Nut Gone Flake, its title track, really is not up to standard. For a 2018 remaster, a stereo version at that, I expected a lot better. From what I can hear between the awkward bits of narration, it like the Kinks but worse on every aspect. I see no reason to give this any other rating than a 2/5.

Perusrokkia 1960-luvulta, ei mitään ihmeellistä. Vähän hapokkaalta kuulosti, mutta ei kuitenkaan ihan mitään käsittämätöntä haahuilua.

Outoa progea mistä ei saanut oikein mitään irti. Periaatteessa mukavia melodioita ja taitavaa soitantaa silloin tällöin, mutta negatiiviset seikat peittoavat positiiviset. Parilla kuuntelukerralla mieleen jäi Afterglowin kertosäe ja Lazy Sunday. Nämä ilmeisesti olivatkin levyn hittibiisit. Peruskakkonen.

A real turd of an album. 1.5 stars.

I would have tolerated the gibberish more, if the music was better.

This could have been 3 star but for the stupidity of the second half. Shame.

Face like a smacked arse

Ok this is from 1968 and has a super goofy cover, it's gonna be psychedelic or folk rock, maybe both. Not exactly a wild prediction given that's the genre every second day here, but whatever. Baseline 2/5 and it's gonna need to rEALLY impress to get any higher, just because I'm bored to death of these bands being in this list. Ok and yep, psychedelic nonsense. I will admit it's well played; at times I'd almost say this is a precursor to stuff like Genesis a few years later, but in this case the whimsy and narration just annoys me. It annoys me in the same way the mighty boosh annoys me. The "quaint Britishness" of it just gives me vibes of rainy days, grey skies, grey streets, grey buildings, and baby poo-coloured minis driving on said grey streets. This is the soundtrack to staying in a hotel with no heating and rotting century-old wallpaper that's about the same poo colour as all the minis. The 2/5 stays, just because it has the good sense to only go half an hour, and it honestly isn't so bad it gets a 1 - it's just mildly annoying, and they probably didn't know any better at the time.

This is an extremely inconsistent album, there were too many spoken word sections with subpar lyrics. The instrumentation on some of these tracks were going crazy cant lie. Did not enjoy most of this record I'd give it a 4/10.

I dig the goofiness of the cover art and "Lazy Sunday". The first instrumental track was pretty dope as well. Overall it's just not quite my cup of tea. 🌟🌟

Old British rock album that was rather unappealing. Many of the songs go by without anything exciting happening. 4.1/10

Interesting and weird album

Some good songs and some psycoledic music but not really outstanding, favorite song Afterglow, Odgens Nut Gone Flake, Rollin Over

It/'s crap

Clásico de los 60, trataba de imitar la corriente de imitadores de los Beatles. Bueno...

Buena onda, pero nomas

I can picture the retirement homes dancing to this.

Naja :P

Basically a cheap Beatles album to me. The noises were weird but the instrument parts were good.

interesting vocals and fun instrumentation

De tantísimos grandes discos que salieron entre 1965 y 1970 nunca había oído hablar de este. Por algo era. Dos estrellas porque I'm biased with the genre

2.5 - afterglow and lazy sunday

Eh

Weird and quirky, just not necessarily my thing. Decent though.

The spoken word bits are absolutely diabolical, so terrible, just a disgusting thing to have on a record, no need for it, one star docked for extremely poor behaviour

Not for me

Britisk 60’er rock, fortællende, folkeligt

Another damn psychedelic album?!?! Although I'm liking the title track so far, feels like a precursor to RJD2. I was on board until Rene. British bands decided after the Beatles that it was better to be a little goofy than too serious. Sometimes it works, other times...not so much. I like this better than some other psychedelic records and then they add in some old man fireside chat and derail the whole thing. Rollin' Over is standard blues-driven psychedelic rock. The story segments ruin this album. HappyDaysToyTown is just the icing on this stupid, goofy cake. Awesome, one more stab at story time.

Too tired to be dealing with this annoying absurdist bullshit.

Eww, that's perverted.

This started out ok and ended up being possibly the most annoying album I've ever heard. I do not want to hear this cockney geezer telling me a story ever again.

There's already a review on here that hits the spot. I shall just tweak it slightly. Pink Floyd meets Only Fools and Horses.

I'm cool off this

(24/100)

1. flake - 1 2. glouu - 1 3. apart - 1 4. rene - 0 5. baker - 1 6. lazy - 0 7. ztan - 1 8. over - 1 9. hungry - 1 10. journey - 1 11. john - 1 12. happy - 1

Glad to learn about who they are/who was original members but not for me

Should have been as popular as the Beatles or the Stones? Heck no.

Guess you had to be there. Lame

Didn't find the Album.

this is horrible, wtf man Will I listen to again: 0%

This is weird. 60's British humor. Like, let's take all the Monty Python songs and try to make a cohesive story out of them, but still keep it silly. It didn't work. My rating: 1/5. But above Kid Rock.

Middle of the road British white men in the 60s play R&B again................ but this time they make it "quirky". Which is just so much worse.

Knock-off psychedelia and artless imitations of Ivor Cutler

I was feeling guilty because I thought Rod Stewart was part of Faces and the Small Faces. Turns out I don’t need to worry about dragging this trash album because precious bean Rod Stewart was nowhere near this album since he was only part of the Faces. I can understand, somewhat, the Small Faces were trying to accomplish with their concept album. But they come across as annoying with how often they use spoken word—to the point that it’s cringe how hard they’re trying. The genre is psychedelic but it’s not very good. A lot of the album just sounds out of tune. And the vocals were not enjoyable. All this allowed me to understand that Rod Stewart saved the Small Faces when they became Faces.

First half was okey, nothing ground breaking. 2/5 The second half is annoying... 1/5

i checked rym because i had listened to this years ago and saw two stars staring back at me. i still find it rather obnoxious and extremely cloudy-sounding, but points for being so British that it reminded me of living in Cardiff (look, i was surrounded by English students). deserves to be one of the 1001? ehh, i respect it but i don't like it. and i don't think that respect transfers to appreciation and importance. no.

still not anything new from the last 30 albums

A lot to dislike here. Relentless skits, goofy songs, very occasional and misleading snatches of almost-compelling guitar. Like if Lovely Rita represented the Beatles' greatest musical accomplishment. Don't waste my time.

That's another "hell, no" from me.

This may make my top 10,000, but it’s a stretch

Music’s completely boring and worth a 0, gets a star for introducing me to the hilarious Stanley Unwin.

3/10

Not worth a listen.

Felt like it was designed to annoy me specifically. 1.5/5

Truly pathetic

When I feel sad about the state of culture in 2025, it's helpful to remember that the '60s also had annoying junk that got popular

Very different, not good different though

The only really memorable bits are the nonsense spoken word sections. Which annoyed me enough to sour my perception of this album

Just plain weird

Bruh this just ain't it

Ogden's Nut tasted a bit fucking weird. I'd rather listen to static, only enjoyable to those who have large red noses, ghostly pale and have size 24 feet

Terrible mixing, lazy sunday is the most disgusting song made in this country. I refuse to listen to any more

You put your left arm in, your left arm out In, out, in, out, you shake it all about You do the Hokey Cokey and you turn around That's what it's all about. Whoa-o the Hokey Cokey (x3)

Not for me

Couldn't get into this one. "Afterglow" was ok, but nothing else grabbed my attention.

Interesting little concept album from a band I never heard of. Very English with the radio bits. I wouldn't consider it very memorable though, especially compared to something like the Who Sell Out which is pretty similar.

pass

Wird Psychedelic Rock with lots of narration and some okaish instrumental parts.

1.5 favs: - song of a baker

Terrible

It bored me a lot. There are many more albums on this list sounding like this.

I wasn't expecting to like this album when I saw that it was the selection for today. It seemed like I was going to be wrong once I heard that first song. Nope. I wasn't. Too many parts remind me of bands I don’t like. Too many annoying taliking intro/outros.

I genuinely believe the world would be a better place if “The Hungry Intruder” didn’t exist.

Just a lame album. Poor production, overshadowed musicianship by like everyone else in this era, and nothing really memorable over its quick 19 minute A side. The B side is a concept long track that I was over before it even started. Afterglow (Of Your Love) is an ok somg, even if it starts poorly, so it's going on my playlist from this album.

Twee BS

I understand this band is associated with Rod Stewart. That is not enough to elevate this ho-hum 1960s pop record. I'm deducting more points for the interminable spoken intros on side 2. Should not be on the list.

I have 2 accounts going and have somehow got this album 2x in 30 days. Anyway. I gave it a 3 before but upon relistening I am downgrading that to a 1.

Not for me…couldn’t finish a single song

This does not appeal to me at all. Most likely a 1 out of 5.

Idk man this album is kind of annoying. It just feels like cheap ripoff of similar music at the time and the interludes make me wanna rip my ears off 3/10 Favourite: None Least Favourite: Happiness Stan

60’s band, 60’s music. Only one real hit.

I don’t think so buddy. It’s just odd and not quite what I’m looking for in an album right now.

Unknown band. For me, run of the mill boring Rock and Roll. I didn't connect.

How did this album make it onto the top 1001 albums of all time? I want to see the underlying data.

Wow. Hated this

The Small Faces' "Ogden's Nut Gone Flake" is an example of how a concept can become confusing in the worst way. The attempt to intertwine stories and sounds results in a messy, uncohesive work that gets lost in its own ambitions. In the end, the album reveals itself to be pure shit, leaving a feeling of frustration rather than entertainment.

1.5

Great, just what this list needed, more British music. I liked a couple songs enough until they would do a spoken part and that accent is so grating and annoyingly whimsical to me I had to dock it a star. I was familiar with the song Get Yourself Together by this band. Why can't whatever album that is on be on this list instead? This ended up sounding like a children's story turned into an album. Had to dock it another star after the last song, which sounded like a kid's commercial. What the hell did I just listen to.

2/10 Si porta malissimo questi 57 anni sto album, per quanto capisco che per l'epoca potesse essere considerato avanguardia o interessante

More English guys who think they're so clever and charming but really are just irritants.

You lost it from the cover

I get the feeling it is on the list only for its origin piece for many musicians. It sounds very pub drinking songs.

Did not click at all with this one. IMO, it drags some of the worst features on the "post Sgt. Peppers" trend in classic rock.

Terrible

Well now, THAT was blooming’ weird. I’m not saying that I’m mad with the album but I’m also not mad for it, either. It did feel like two halves of an album shotgunned together - Dr Jekyll was a psychedelic trip with an R&B filter and Mr Hyde was a concept album featuring a mod comic with a whackadoodle fake language. It’s not one star but it’s not much better and since I can’t score it one and a half, I shall be cruel.

p148. 1968. 1 star. Self indulgent, pretentious, drug-addled crap. I cannot be doing with the bloody awful Cockernee music hall numbers or Stanley Unwin's gibberish. "I'll sing you a song with no words and no tune (twiddly-bey)/To sing on your khazi while you suss out the moon, oh yeah". FFS

This was definitely different. I think this was interesting because of the narrator aspect along with story telling, but as a completely opinion based pov I just didn’t like it. The music style is not something I find interesting and it was just silly.

Meh

Rating: 2/10 First half is meh at best, second half is legitimately a 0/10. The narrator makes this unlistenable.

This is #day76 of my #1001albumsyoumusthearbeforeyoudie challenge, and... this week the list seems to have gone sideways, offering entries from the 1960s to the early 1970s. Today's album could be a fun listen when you're hallucinating. But I am not. This was pretty boring as I was yawning during most of the record. And then, the storytelling started... Anyway, I wouldn't choose to listen to this ever again. Welcome to the company of 1 out of 5. Looking forward to #day77.

A couple of good songs in Lazy Sunday and Afterglow but apart from that I really didnt understand the album at all. Lots of nonsense. Favourite song: Lazy Sunday Least favourite: All of the album Album artwork: Cool cover

The worse

Got real chatty. Maybe it was funny at the time. The rest of the record is generic 60s.

Der er få gode elementer smidt rundt her og der. Men det drukner i latterlige druksange og højtlæsning af eventyr. Som helt album er det et ulideligt lyt

Lazy Sunday Afternoon is a classic. The rest of the album less so. You’d be seriously annoyed if you bought this based on that one song.

The nuts and bolts are good All the talking stuff is so bad, unforgivably horrendously bad. Annoying, cringey, waste of time At times it sounds like B Sides from Fagans gang in oliver twist. Turning things up and down and panning instruments alone doesn't make something experimental. I think the biggest factor in the rating will be.. when it finished, the idea of playing it again turned my stomach slightly Its a 2 or a 1

Quanto mais tempo passa nesse desafio, mas genérica começam a soar as músicas. kkkkkk

No

It was whimsical but a bit too hippie for me.

Bizarre clockwork orange style interludes

My favourite track from this album wasn’t even on this album. It was the first track of the Spotify radio playlist that started after this album finished. It wasn’t even by this band. It was by The Monkees and I hate the Monkees. So let’s recap 1. Totally forgettable album 2. Best Track Isn’t Even On The Album 3. Best Track isn’t even by Small Faces 4. Best Track is by a band I hate 1.2

it’s an album

Absolutely terrible.

Not a fan

Psychedelic happy-go-lucky campy songs

Really didn’t like this, which included several tracks of narration. I can only give this 1 star.

👎

60s shit I hate

Sometimes this list is very English and this pick feels that way to me today. It was difficult to focus on this record during multiple attempts. There were a few flashes of brilliance of the course of the album that would pull me in but then there were a number of elements (in the music and the skit like voiceovers) that simply didn't resonate with me. One way to rate the music when you are tied between a one star or a two star review is to honestly answer the question of whether or not you were relieved once it was over.

British men are insufferable and this is proof.

Just not for me.

Odd

Oikeasti en inhonnut tätä, mutta en yhtään tiedä, mikä tää on. Ja ärsyttävä konsepti.

Se, miltä kuvittelemme isiemme musiikin kuulostavan, kun toivomme, ettei meidän tarvitsisi antaa sille mahdollisuutta.

The jangly 60s stuff was tolerable but the quirky storytelling stuff was utter garbage.

No thank you.

Look you can't like all musical styles, so I expected there would be a few albums I struggled with. But I've been listening to rock my entire life with a particular fondness for 60's rock. Not familiar with the Small Faces, but no the Faces. Anyways the album starts and it's not too bad, I can see why they needed to add Rod Stewart and Ronnie Wood. Then Happiness Stan came on and I couldn't listen anymore. Get outta here with that Ren Faire, Shire of Frodo reject. Not an album I needed to hear before I die.

Nah

This was not for me.

What rubbish

Too psychedalic for me and in my opinion outdated.

I think a lot of people will know Lazy Sunday, it's one of those songs my Dad would half sing around the house when I was growing up at least. I'm not really a fan of psychedelic rock (and really dislike most prog rock), though I can leave it on in the background like the radio and find it inoffensive. B side of the album is crap. Not sure I'll stretch to 2 on it even though there are a couple of good tracks.

Track 1: Ogden’s Nut Gone Flake Ight so this is a 2 different sides typa track like all the 60s shit. i kinda rock w that stuff sometimes, wouldn’t listen without both headphones. kinda sounds like a symphony like all the instruments sound really unique. that synth blast around 1:35 came in hard. pretty good into. little drum part that goes thru both earphones is cool. Track 2: Afterglow of your love Acoustic intro is meh, sounds very bland so far, breakdown is tryna build something up, this feels really generic, tryna sound all deep and lovey but it seems like shit people have said a million times before. it was the 60s however so i guess for something of that time period it isn’t that bad Track 3: Long shos and worlds apart I like the quick into, bass sound plucky n nice, i like the guitar tone, interlude was ok, kid of repetitive at the end Track 4: Rene i immediately at uncomfortable by the voice but i think it might grow on me, i’m tryna focus on the music but the lyrics sound so awful that i can’t pay attention, oh my god i take it back this sounds genuinely terrible but hopefully rhis musical section sounds good, nah not a fan Track 5: Song of a baker Guitar sounds good, oh fuck why are they talking about weeds in the field, ugh the lyrics suck again i’m already sick OH WAIT THE GUITAR SOLO IS BRINGING IT BACK just stopped me from skipping ok the end wasn’t terrible Track 6: Lazy Sunday OH MY GOD I FUCKING HATE HIS VOICE if this was someone else’s voice i feel like the album wouldn’t be as terrible. he just fucking said rootidootidie kill me im done with this album ALBUM LEFT UNFINISHED

I did not enjoy it.

Lame. Non sensical monologues. Infuriating.

Absolute shite.

As soon as I saw the title for this album I knew that it wouldn’t even be a quarter as good musically as the title is, I was correct. This is like classic rock that wasn’t good enough to make it to a small town rock station to be overplayed. I had a hard time listening, it was boring and didn’t keep my interest whatsoever. Won’t recommend ever. To borrow a phrase, this isn’t Walmart uk rock, this is Biway uk rock.

eh. Didn't listen super closely but didn't like what I heard

Concept album, not my thing

Not for me. At all.
