Will The Circle Be Unbroken

Oh - not mine

Overdose on bluegrass/ country-western.

Well, I guess the run of good albums had to end at some point. Will The Circle Be Unbroken was an absolutely miserable experience from start to finish. It feels like the band only had a few ideas and just decided to stretch them out into 42 songs for some reason that i will never find out. And some of the songs are just talking for long stretches of time (like come on, we don't want to hear that). There were some more tolerable songs in the album but even they can't save it from being absolutely horrible. I can only just pray the next album will be bettter. Best Song: Nashville Blues Worst Song: I'm Thinking Tonight Of My Blue Eyes

If you make it past 10 seconds you’re a better man than me!

This type of hick yee-haw album has no place in a list of 1001 albums to hear before you die. It's worse than bad, a 5 year old child could do better twanging elastic bands. Life's to short to endure this type of torture.

YeAh, not a fan

I like a bit of country/bluegrass. I don't like 2+ hours of it. Any quality is negated by the fact it goes on too long, sorry.

There might be some good songs on this album, but I can't remember any of them amongst the two hours and ten minutes of dross (no, I checked to make sure that I hadn't accidentally clicked on the deluxe edition link). It's quite basic bluegrass country stuff, with too many Jesus references, too much tweeness, and very little of interest. Oh, and it also has little skits in it, and sounds of them tuning up. Wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy, 1/5.

Jävligt långt, allt låter lika, random speakin i mellan låtarna int min grej

I really hate this type of music. I am so sorry

Unfortunately the only country music I can listen to is in opening scenes of horror movies.

This is a „love it or hate it“ type of music and I hate it. Could not bring myself to sit through the entire album.

Fuck off and when you think you're done fucking off why don't you fuck off a little bit more. cuntry music is awful.

Oof

One in a million similar albums

No. Just no.

Too country twang for me

Preferably FUCK NO: I’m an avid country hater and when I saw this pop up I immediately wanted to rip out all of my organs and just kill myself. WHY OVER 2 HOURS?!? Literally took me over a day to actually listen to it. Some funky banjo and guitar but nothing I want to touch again. Will I be harsh, yeah but I don’t care.

I mistakenly listened to wrong Will The Circle Be Unbroken and bitched how it was a hour and half album. Then got to this one. Yea, waaaay too long. Way too long for the same sounding stuff over and over again. So long and tedious, left me in a bad mood until I got to the peace pipe. Love the name of the band. Not so much their music. I'm going to score a 1.5. My 1's will be left to the most brutal sounding shit, but this was close.... 1.5

If you’re up for drinking moonshine and eyeing an immediate family with lustful intent this needs to be your slow jams 95’.

The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band's "Will the Circle Be Unbroken" answers the age old question: Is there such a thing as too much bluegrass? Before noticing the length of this album, I was tepidly interested. The style of this music can jive with me from time to time, even though I could definitely do without the whole Confederacy (and some of the Jesus and mopey alcoholic) stuff that ends up sneaking into the cracks of this genre. But boy, do I love acoustic guitars and fiddles, folksy shit that almost feels mythological in how it seems from another time and place entirely. But forty two songs? Christ, well, okay … I liked a few of the earlier songs and tolerated some of the others. But this is, in the end, a very bloated album. Don't bother listening to the entire thing unless you're a huge bluegrass simp - or you're another poor stubborn sod like me determined to push through this project with brute force. Otherwise, listen to "Black Mountain Rag", "Flint Hill Special", and "Foggy Mountain Breakdown" if you want to experience some genuinely amazing compositions. Then, with your newfound spare time, go play Bioshock Infinite. Or not. I don't know. I'm not your mom. I don't disagree with the idea of picking a bluegrass album to represent your list, but my brother in Christ, this was so bloated I found myself just listening to this out of obligation in the end.

not mine

En keksi mitään syytä kuunnella tätä yli kahta tuntia

neat but not my jam

Damn shame because I would've given this a 2 had it been shortened by an hour. But I listened to this whole shebang top to bottom, so I deserve to give this a 1.

There are worse things to listen to while fetching discs in a field on a rainy Saturday morning, but that doesn’t mean it’s not a 1. This thing almost Stockholm Syndrome’d me into giving it a 2 thanks to the unforgivable run time of 2 hours, but I didn’t succumb. I tried to go song by song, but when discus throwers are hurling discs at you, it makes it hard to look at your phone and I’ll be damned if I listen to this for another run through. D Grand Ole Opry Song - 1 Keep on the Sunny Side - 2 Nashville Blues - 3 You Are My Flower - 2 The Precious Jewel - 1 Dark As a Dungeon - 1 Tennessee Stud - 1 This is all I got through but there were plenty more 1’s after this, I assure you.

Nope.

I am not a fan of Country Music

ugh tough listen couldn't make it to the end. i probably would have given it more of a chance if there wasn't the overwhelming feeling of wasting over 2 hours of my life on it. oh well, can't like everything

NEJ, IKKE MERE HILLBILLY COUNTRY MUSIK, JEG DØR

Country ...

C&W / Bluegrass ain't for me.

Way too long

El country es muy aburrido. Next.

ik så meget mig

Dreadful.

42 songs??? couldn't get through this one, just too much twang. One or two songs might be tolerable but not a whole album.

Only listened to the first 5 songs but decided I didn't need to do this to myself any longer. Favorite: i cant

when will it end

Just not my style

Really not my thing.

There's 42 tracks and nearly 3 hours is enough to make you hate Country & Western and convince yourself it all sounds the same

uhhhh… yeha no. sorry. this is just not my thing in any sort of way and it was wayyy too long.

It was as if I was in a super rural area

Als soundtrack voor een Coen Brothers movie kan ik hier nog wel wat mee, maar zo 'los' gaat dit nergens over natuurlijk.

Nee hor, die pure Nashville country is echt too much

Serieus? Dit is iets wat wordt gezien als een album wat je gehoord moet hebben? Als je dit langer dan 20 seconden kunt volhouden dan klopt er iets niet.

shocker

Vincent Van Gogh's life (and physical appearance) was changed after being forced to listen to this album. Banjos, harmonicas and violins have no place in my ears. Two hours of this is crazy-making.

This album epitomizes the South and I don't care for it. I skipped through almost every song because I am not going to listen to an album that is almost 2 hours long of music I don't like.

Not my scene at all

Ein gepflegtes "Yeahhh haaa" hätte es auch getan da braucht man kein Album für

It's a shame that this is 2 hours too long. I was mostly enjoying this, enough for 3* I'd say but it has to go down as a 1* overall for the sheer stamina required to get through from start to finish.

Ridiculous in length. If its 40 minutes I'm happily looking at a 3 but a near 3 hour album is just bonkers

Enjoyed this. But it is far far far too long.

Nope. Did not enjoy this at all.

No.

Some decent musicianship, but that's where it ends for me. Can't get into traditional country at all. Despite the varied instrumentation, thick harmonies etc., the songs just come off as bland and uninteresting. Maybe okay for Bob's Country Bunker, but not for me.

1972: Will The Circle Be Unbroken

I hate this kind of music
