ok album. Just not one of the top 1001 albums that I needed to listen to before I died.
Osittain meni ohi puhelimen takia, mutta ei käynyt mielessäkään soittaa alusta uudelleen...
Forgettable. Wouldn't make my top 1000, though it did lead me to "Strawberry Letter 23" from his previous album, which is good.
Couldn't get it to play
No, no, no
Jazzy with one tune I remember from my childhood
Meandering, aimless and ultimately random sounding. You can tell this is a solo effort: With a band, you are forced to get to the point instead of indulging your own idiosyncracies. On a positive note, I like the sound and vibe of those 70s drum machines.
Jazzy R&B bar blues by Johnny Otis son.
Boring background funk
like i dont wanna finish listening
mäßiges Geschwurbel
1/1
not a fan
Didn't enjoy this one.
I would have thought I liked Shuggie Otis more. Maybe I only like the "hits". Or maybe just Sweet Thang? Aht Uh Mi Hed sounds like video game music with lyrics over it. Happy House is worse though. This is not a good album.
Dated
Musique d’ascenseur. Vraiment pas fan. Pour pas dire complètement à chier
I could have gone without. It didn't appeal to me whatsoever
Not my thing. slightly boring in fact
Like one good song
Oh, I recognize this album from when I was on hold with any company ever
I feel like some inspiration would have been a good idea This was incredibly dull

Artisti ei jaksa säveltää eikä laittaa heiveröistä ääntään minkäänlaiseen hyötykäyttöön. Jazzahtava himmailu sen sijaan tulee luonnostaan. "Pling!" osoittaa, että hän tietää tämän kaiken.
Chilled out soul music that is just a little boring. It feels like the album wants to go somewhere but it doesn’t quite get there. In short this album is dull. Favourite song: Least favourite: Album artwork: Not one for the wall at home.
Sem animo pra ouvir
So laid back he was laid out?
I don't need to listen to this again.
So Shuggie Otis was an artist that I had never heard before, and I found this to be a completely forgettable album… As I always do when I get one of these headscratchers, I was perplexed why this is even on the 1,001 list… Found this little ditty about the “Inspirational Information” album – “…Released in 1974 on Epic Records, it reached number 181 on Billboard's Top 200 Pop Albums list that year…”. Wow – 174 of 200 at it’s peak, we definitely need to get that one on the 1,001 list for sure… : ) Anyways, just found it incredibly odd all-the-way around, as songs go on much longer than they need to, while others stop suddenly when they should have gone on a bit longer – and vocals, forget about it, as they are absolutely dreadful… Actually found the instrumentals to be a bit better, but that may have just been because Shuggie wasn’t singing… This sounded like it could have been the soundtrack music to the old 70’s sitcom “Sanford & Son”… “…I think this is the big one Elizabeth…” though nothing big about this album, and giving a generous 1 for my rating…
Dull.
Didn't care for it. Some tracks sounded like elevator music to me.
Having to restart an album multiple times during the day is a bad sign. The beginning of the album sounds like elevator music or being on hold with your health insurance. The ending (last two songs) are stronger but jeez, before you even get there… 1/5
Good God, this is awful. It kicks off with kind of "sexy time music", and then plunges into music so utterly banal as to be immediately forgotten.
all double albums get 1 star. i don’t make the rules i just ruthlessly enforce them
Very smooth and calming just not for me
Too Long. Many meh songs then suddenly a Bee Gees sounding tune.
Who? That’s why I have never heard of him. First album at 23 - ok. Hard to break into the music industry. One star
Disintegrates into noodling in the background
I ALREADY RATED THIS YOU IDIOTS
Super long album with maybe one or two alright songs
Very very dull, would listen to several songs without realising the track had changed. Accidentally listened to the start of the second album it's paired with on Amazon, exactly the same. That's enough Shuggie Otis for a lifetime I think.
Disappointing, found the album quite lacking in all areas. Needed far more funk to liven it up. The instrumental parts are not interesting enough to have so many.
This album was boring as fuck and idk why is it on the list of 1001 albums you need to listen to before you die. There are other albums that deserve your listen way more than this, as a composer i guess this guy has some merit but jesus i couldn’t help but snore cuz it all sounded like elevator music or some shit you play at a bland ass PG-13 dinner party
So fucking boring.
I always wanted to know where the riffs came from on the soundtracks from 1970s porn. Now I know! The audio without the video just doesn't do it.
Better listen to Bill Withers
I should love this, however, found it kinda underwhelming and forgettable. Maybe it's a summer album.
2/3 strong songs but not a great album. If realeased in modern times the filler ratio would have killed it.
Instrumentals fine. Songs from another era, best for sampling.
Meh, saai
Noise
cheap vanilla ice cream
Demasiado tranquilo. No es mi estilo
Didn't like it. Boring.
Chill but not that deep
