Green Onions

Meh

I guess its a good instrumental album?

Ensformig

Erstes Lied gut. Danach zu viel HonkyTonk oder Orgelgepfeiffe.

not my thing

(Lo voy a escribir en español porque me cansé de hacerlo en inglés). Es un álbum musical con el mismo ritmo de principio a fin, con sutiles variaciones. Me aburrió mucho, más que el primero que escuché (Kid A - Radiohead). 1/5

Do they… say any words?

Corte que los instrumentos.

Rarement entendu quelque chose d'aussi barbant. Littéralement le même morceau 12x. Je venais d'écouter un album sans parole, ce qui n'aide pas j'en conçois. Le premier, cependant, récolte 3 étoiles de plus.

Yeah.... Not my thing. I was expecting to hear some vocals but it was pure instrumental which, okay, wasn't that bad, but I wouldn't say I loved it.

i don't think i had ever listened to Booker T. & The MG's before. I do like to listen to songs without lyrics but they should be strongly instrumental. This album was very very dull for me. The only song i see myself maybe listening to again is Stranger on the Shore, solely because it had a guitar solo. Maybe this was extraordinary in the 60's and i get that but not my cup of tea, darling.

zzzzz

3/10

Green onions the songs wiuld make 1001 songs before you die but the rest of this album is mainly renditions of other songs in pedestrian to pleasant instrumentals . 1 star as this shouldn’t be in the list

The biggest sin here is the fade outs, the lack of proper endings to the songs makes it hard to shake off the vibe you are listening to essential and dressed up collection of loading screen music

Beyond the title track it got very boring very quickly. Felt like I was in the bleachers at a Mets game.

eeee, no tiene leyra la everdsd q nomme gusta eso solo la lusca clsica pero sin letra me sabe a poco no me trasmite casi nada

Didn't load

Not my favourite album about onions. That was Houmous & Chutneys album ‘onions’ where they used nothing but onions as their instruments. Remarkable. 0.8 2/12 Rinky Dink

meh

Not really songs, more just grooves. The title track is the best one, but this is still pretty dull.

Not for me.

The first song was OK, I struggled with the next few and gave up and retreated to Planet rock.

Okay, gotta be honest, I'm not a big fan of the Beatles. I find them a little bit bland even if I know the historical weight they hold but I also have to admit that I have never listened to any of their albums completely, only the songs that are the most famous, so here I am full of hope that there is at least one song of them that is gonna shake me to the core so let's see. Surprise me Okay, update, I'm halfway the album. Still nothing has shaken me to the core and actually I'm a bit disappointed because the Beatles are serving zero homoerotic vibes even when they are described as a boy band. I have a lot of thoughts, none of them are kind. Update #2. Some things are better to left unsaid. That's all I'm gonna say, actually I think i said enough. I just feel like I just ate a bowl of unseasoned chicken. I'm gonna shut up now

Just as well albums were shorter in the 60s as I'm not sure I could have listened any longer . Flashbacks to films that had girls in short dresses dancing unrealistically in nightclubs . Did recognise a couple of the tunes -Acker Bilk did it better .

If you've listened to the title track you've listened to the whole album. No need to sit through 35 minutes of this shit.

This was subjectively awful. Iirc this was rushed out because Green Onions was a hit on radio so they smashed out an album. It was just jams of well known tunes but none of them anywhere near the level of the originals. That organ sound was not my fave but some of the guitar licks were cool. I thought the album got better at one point but it had gone to autoplay....

Green onions is a classic. Everything else. Skippable.

wikipedia doesn't even mention this album's 2/10 rendition of twist and shout

pretty backgroumnd, pero lindo sonido de los organos y las guitarritas Likes: Mo'onions - Stranger on the shore -

Green Onions is the only song I recognize and like.

Lame, not for me at all I'm afraid. Everyone must have heard the first track, well it all goes downhill after

I honestly didn’t like the album as a whole- it’s just not be vibe on any given day. But “One Who Really Loves You” really got me in a jolly mood, probably because it resembles Chicano Batman. Honorary mentions to “Comin’ Home Baby” and “Behave Yourself”.

Got 3 songs in and was done

I liked Green Onions. I didn't like it enough to have a whole album of Just Green Onions.

This was some cotton picking music. Felt like massa was about to bust through the door any minute

Every track sounded the same

nah

Good oldies

2 original songs padded out with a bunch of covers played on a really annoying fairground organ. Even the artwork smacks of ‘fuck it, that’ll do. Just release it’. Don’t understand why this is so highly rated.

"Green Onions" is one of the three songs that the septuagenarian Italian-American blues band plays at Bob and Barbara's in Philly every weekend. Anyway, I make sure that I get out of there as fast as I can once they start to set up. Wish I could have run away from this album too.

Boring

De Fred Again van zijn tijd, met nadruk op van zijn tijd

The entire album sounds pretty samey and isn't interesting enough to keep my attention. It is good background music for being on hold.

Title track is ok, but it all gets a bit irritating fairly quickly.

Sorry men det var säkert jättebra när det släpptes men allt låter som en parodi på liknande musik. Samma hook på keyboarden i typ alla låtar och sen inte mycket mer än så

Bit of a silly album innit? Most of the songs have a Benny Hill montage vibe. You known when Benny Hill is chasing bikini clad English girls at 1.5 speed? Yeah. Plus the title track isnt that good. 1/5 stars.

only listened to a couple songs - not for me, it was just instrumentals of other songs basically?? not my style

Really not my stuff, the organ sounds truly don’t make me vibe…

Schifezz, riconosco alcune canzoni utilizzate nei film ma comunque brutto, a tratti imbarazzante.

1st tune is great, but gets really repetitive after that.

Estoy empezando a desmotivarme mucho ya, cada dia peor, es como una cancion larga. No voy a poder ser objetiva y voy a pagar mi enfado con la aleatoreidad poniendo peor nota de la que probablemente se merezca.

A very 1 dimensional album. The guitar and organ combo get a bit boring after 3/4 songs

Dull. 1/5 stars.

Didn't do anything for me, more lounge instrumentals than moving.

Not bad, some songs are a bit groovy. This piece of work is just not something I see myself coming back to, especially since there are no lyrics.

Didn't enjoy. Cool concept of a soundtrack for a film that doesnt exist

Boring. Sorry.

Insists upon itself.

Before: Hasn't this been memed? Am I making that up? Standout tracks: Green Onions Comin' Home Baby Mo' Onions Weakest tracks: Rinky Dink I Got A Woman You Can't Sit Down During/after: Yeah dude the title track has almost 314 million streams it has been memed to death. Booker T. discovered the organ and never looked back. The title track was kind of fun for what it was, though a little to goofy for me, but man, Rinky Dink is annoying. And this is only track TWO. I have to sit through over another 30 minutes of this. I am screaming. Mo' Onions (lmfao) has a cool little guitar and bass line that gets old by the end but it's a reprieve from some of the nonsense. More annoying goofiness until the last 15 seconds of Stranger on the Shore. Really cool guitar riff. But then we get into Lonely Avenue and suddenly I'm fearing for my sanity again. It's just annoying and sounds like cartoon music. You Can't Sit Down has kind of a cool surf rock sound, like Endless Summer vibes. It would be fun in isolation but as I near the end of this record and I already want to die a little bit I'm like "HURRY UPPPP PLEASEEEE." Comin' Home Baby has an eerie vibe that is a bit unique and was a welcome ending to the record. I mean, I think any track would be a welcome ending simply due to it being the ending, but the creepiness was interesting compared to everything else. I wouldn't call it enjoyable by any means, but relatively, yeah. Most of the time I can appreciate some sillier music when I can tell the artist doesn't take themselves too seriously, but even if this is the case here, I at least want to be entertained and not annoyed the whole time. I would be so content if I never heard another organ again. Next time I hear one I will get Vietnam War flashbacks. This is very Tom & Jerry core. Grandma and Pappy did the jitterbug to this in 1962. This was their 100 gecs except it wasn't good. Ass. 1/5.

Recogniced the first song from an old Dressman ad. Im starting to realize that im not a fan of organs/this specific sounding keyboard as a instrument. It sounds goofy and silly to me. Like circus music. Elevator music. Strikes no feelings whatsoever with me. Some of the most bland music ive heard in a while.

cum

Hat mir ganz gut gefallen. Instrumentale Kompositionen.

А петь я что ли буду?? Green Onion - невероятно странный альбом из этого списка. 12 фанковых инструментальных треков с лид инструментом в виде синта органа звучат как фоновая музыка в видео или мелодии из лифта. Да, эта группа сделала новаторское звучание у себя на альбоме, вдохновила много групп в будущем, но в этом деле хорош тот, кто сумел добыть из этой пещеры однотипных песен хорошие мотивы и ЗАПИСАЛ СВОЙ ВОКАЛ ПОД ЭТО. Во время прослушивания альбома не чувствуется душевности в треках, одна песня проходит за другой, и присутствует ощущение, будто ты застрял в лифте и в панике ищешь выход из него. Как историческая точка в истории эта пластинка должна идти в первых рядах, но как альбом в 2025 году оно не слушается, дайте мне the beatles с таким же звучанием, и любая песня будет восприниматься лучше всего альбома Booker T. & The MG’s. Фоновые 1/5.

mhh...not my music

Boring as fuck

Not me vibes rn. Lil different

Too much instrumental, track 5 was my favorite.

I need words

Can’t think of a situation where I’d ever feel like listening to this album again…

Wedding band music. Awful cover, too.

I find it hard to put into words why exactly I dislike this album. The title song is... fine I guess, I mean, everybody knows the song but that doesn't really make it good. The rest of the album is utterly forgettable and a bit of a chore to get through.

Step 1) play a mediocre chord progression you've heard 100 times before. 2) organ and guitar solos for 2-4 minutes. Was completely bored and do not understand

This got old really fast for me. "Green Onions" is OK, but I found myself tuning out more and more with each track.

nigga that was ass

I'd never been inclined to listen to the rest of this album, regardless of how often ~that~ song is pushed in classic rock playlists. This is some bottom-of-the-barrel Blackpool working-man's-club bullshit.

Mmmmbof, yen a une qui me faisait penser à Nintendogs 😅

They couldn’t find a singer?!

what were they cooking with those, i think i'm allergic

Elevator muzak covers of famous R&B and rock and roll songs. The first song is apparently super famous, but I've personally never heard it before. Literally nothing. A completely empty listening experience. (Album no. 700, woo!)

Annoying

The only song I knew by Booker T & The MGs before listening to this album was “Green Onions”. And that’s because it’s the only song worth listening to on this album.

Green Onions the song is fantastic - but a single song and collection of covers an album does not make. 1 star.

No

Didn’t really vibe

Good for programming on.

Boring, sounds like Blackpool pier.

Boring, an album made just because track 1 was a hit and they needed to shift copies

The first track is, of course, a classic, but there’s not much else here of substance.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Probably the most boring music in the world

Immediately no. I like lyrics! Why all instrumental albums??

Awful elevator music,

Nedir bu ya

Green Onions is a fantastic song, but this album is everything that is wrong with this list. I don’t doubt that these guys are talented individuals, but at a guess I would say they had a big hit with green onions and were then rushed into the studio to record a bunch of covers and release as a record to capitalise. Clearly having a big hit single in the 60s is enough to get your album into this book.

Bit samey, but decent background tunes. They have better albums.

Great songs, but they're mostly covers right - so can't really award stars for that.

Não curto música instrumental

Adding he damaged had but been had kleptocratic

Brilliant ! Love that it's an instrumental album! Also, title track, OF COURSE! But just a great sound, and easy funk my souly rnb listening. Think I could add lyrics to all of it?
