Triangle

Take a dose of Dylan and add horrible song writing and you have this album. The best thing about it was that it was only 28 painful minutes long.

Kinda ok but nothing I'm going to revisit. Cool to read their Wikipedia page and learn about them since I'd never heard of them before.

Notable for being a sort of generic 1960s folk-rock-pop with very up-down-up-down vocal lines, telling stories about painters of women and timekeepers and suchlike. Always on the verge of achieving a certain likeness to Cat Stevens or even Syd Barrett in sound and quality of songwriting. But not ever getting there by a long shot in the end.

I would have been perfectly fine having never heard this , the music is boilerplate for the time and it’s mediocre at best .

Eén van die honderden bands die in de slipstream van The Beatles hetzelfde succes wilde beleven, maar door pure middelmaat en weinig unieke capaciteiten hebben ze niet echt een onuitwisbare indruk achtergelaten op het pop-landschap van de 60s. Toch hebben zij deze lijst gehaald, in tegenstelling tot zoveel van de bands die hetzelfde lot ondergingen. Ik ben er niet achter gekomen waarom. Het is geinige muziek voor de Muppet Show of iets dergelijks, meer niet. 5/10

Terrible.

More of this maypole shit.

From the band name and album cover I was expecting worse, but the first song is defying expectations. Folk/rock/country in some measure, similar to Manassas or CSN or The Flying Burrito Brothers or the Eagles, each with a different level of success. Only Dreaming Now is not as good as Are You Happy? This album is getting worse and worse. Nine Pound Hammer is better. All the songs are short and the album is only 29 minutes long which is a huge plus. This is like psychedelic Simon and Garfunkel, in the worst possible way. Simon and Garfunkel probably stuffed these magic loving dorks into a locker when they saw them. It's like trippy Jim Croce. Only 29 minutes and I'm still counting the seconds until it's over. I don't hate the cover of My Old Kentucky Home.

Listened twice and I honestly didn't think about what I was listening to more than once or twice. Maybe I'm stressed, or maybe this album just isn't that good.

Temu Bob Dylan

I really didn't want to listen to this album. 1. I've never heard of them. 2. The album cover is stupid. 3. The Wikipedia description states that ther are a psychedelic band. 4. Some reviews compared the vocalist to Dylan. All reasons to stay away. Well, as it turns out, my trepidation was completely warranted. This album is the quintessential definition of 'not for me'.

Gear: Grado Hemp Artwork: 🌷🌷🌷 Production: 🫢🤔🤷 Music: 🤔😮🤯 Rating: 🔺(🔺)/5

Why the fuck is this here, did they just add any old album written by white people in the 60s? 1*

this album sounds like a musty attic the fact that this came out the same year as sgt pepper, are you experienced, velvet underground & nico….makes you appreciate those records more some people should be bullied more

A forgotten band’s fourth album after more talented people left the group? Bad, thin vocals and odd, jangly psychedelic country folk rock? This is clearly not an album anyone needed to hear before they died. 1⭐️

Music for people who say they don't listen to music. Another faceless, uninspired, unremarkable band attempting to cash in on British Invasion hype.

Seltsames Gebrummel!?!

This sounds like an alpha test of Colin Melody. Glad they eventually worked all the bugs out

Not good! Should've heeded the warning that "It Won't Get Better." Basic 60s folk but not like Bob Dylan or Jimi Hendrix or the good stuff. I listened twice and gave up.

(Mutters to self, within a record store) “Hmm need something new…” BAM! A know-it-all curmudgeon appears and gives unsolicited advice: “Have you heard of The Beau Brummels? They’re in-creeeeedible”. (Me, being nice) “Ah, I see they’re in the clearence section. I’ll give it a go!” *Flash-forward to one day later. I’m in heaven, in a water aerobics class with Elvis, the entire 27 Club, and OJ Simpson’s wife (turns out, he DID do it?!)* Elvis: “Hey bu-bu-bu-baby, what are you in for? (Strikes pose). Me: “Uhh Elvis, that’s not the move we’re supposed to be doing. I was killed because I listened to the most generic 60s music imaginable. It was like forcing Bob Dylan to run up a mountain, then immediately jamming a pencil in his hand and screaming ‘WRITE DOWN SOME WORDS AND SING IT WITH MY COUSINS, BOBBY.’ Kinda like what that would sound like.” Elvis: “Oh mu-mu-mu-man, that sounds like a real drag, man. What band was it?” Me: “This band I’d never heard of that made it on the 1001 Albums list. You’d think with so many great bands left off the list that when a critic goes out of their way to include something fresh, it’d be interesting and unique at the very least. Nope - it was some band called The Beau Bummels?” Elvis: “DAMN man, when I died on the can that’s what was playin’!” Entire water aerobics class: “SAME!” Entirety of heaven: “SAME!” Uhh yeah, all to say: 1*

Nah

Garbage. Never heard these nerds before, and I hope to never again. 1/5.

The stuff of nightmares.

No

No creo que este disco de Beau Brummels debería estar en la lista por múltiples razones, pero la más importante es que es un esfuerzo sumamente olvidable, sobre todo para una década en donde se estaba lanzando música que revolucionaría el panorama del pop por décadas. Este disco no influenció a nadie. No es lo suficientemente country, no es lo suficientemente folk, no es lo suficientemente experimental o psicodélico. Sálteselo, realmente es una pérdida de tiempo. PD: La voz del vocalista es INSOPORTABLE. Y te lo dice una persona que disfruta de casi todo el catálogo de Bob Dylan y Neil Young.

Incessantly dull. Not psychedelic enough to be Jefferson Airplane nor talented enough to be The Mamas and The Papas; not old enough to be Geoffrey Chaucer nor interesting enough to be Scott Walker. This is what racists might pick as typical white person music.

Forgettable hippy stuff

Not for me

Weak 60s folk music, sung in an annoying whiny voice. Somebody’s picker is off to think that I had to listen to this one. A 1.5 but I can’t stretch it to two starts.

Terrible stuff. Not offensively bad, just so boring and nondescript that it completely faded into the background. I couldn't tell you anything about it now. There's a reason so much of this psychedelic and folk music has been memory-holed.

Just a lot weird...

No joy with any of those songs.

Maybe it’s ok but there’s so much way way better similar stuff out there

Bob Dylan’s squeaky little brother leading a band who tried to use every 60’s instrument- badly.

As soon as Apple Music compared the lead singer of this band to Dylan, I knew it was going to be terrible. It sure was disappointing.

Nicht meine Richtung

Nah

Pretty sure that all the Spotify plays for the first track of this album came from this horrible list generator.

Bleh

Nope nope nope. So boring. Not a single song worth going back to.

Groupe inconnu. Bon, seconde révélation pour moi : après a folk, la country n'est pas pour moi non plus ... Heureusement cet album est court, mais j'ai eu du mal à l'écouter jusqu'au bout. En plus je n'aime pas la façon de chanter (trop de vibrato). => 1/5

Mary, Mary, quite contrary, playing this album is unnecessary.

Never heard of these guys. Interesting to see what they sound like. Figured they would sound like what they look like for that era. Not sure how long I'll last listening to this. eh. not for me

It’s a cross of country, bluegrass, Bob Dylan, and psychedelia. Thought this was okay at first but his vibrato become increasingly piercing to the ear in an icepick way as the album continued.

yeah nah, this shouldnt be on this list...

I wish I had died before listening to this album. The only good thing about this is 28 minutes was long enough for me to locate and load a gun but not long enough for me to pull the trigger. Bland instrumentals and boring vocals with a repetitive structure :/. A couple of okay songs at the end weren't enough. Fav songs: - The Wolf Of Velvet Fortune - Old Kentucky Home

kjedelig

Not only cliched but more than a bit creepy on content. Why so much of this?

This is some freshmen team shit. All I had to do was hear their version of nine pound hammer with tiny hammer backing. It sounds like the scene with Ben Stiller in the mines in Zoolander. Sorry dudes.

NO standouts on this album

Not my style

Goddamn snore fest bro

Not really for me. Too slow, too homo. 1.5

Just no.

Not sure what the hell this was.

Really annoying. Did not like the vocals at all.

I don’t know if I have a bad day and then I get an album that I judge to be lacklustre, or I get an album that’s sub-par and I have a bad day. Either way - bleah.

Enhhh

First time listen. I see the influence on coming San Fran sounds, but this is not yet formed and the lead singers voice is quite annoying.

3/10 "highlights": The Wolf of Velvet Fortune

Tambourines, tubas and trumpets... and Triangles... with lots of la-di-da campfire folkiness. Just didn't appeal to me. Not a single song, I'm afraid. It has to be 1 star so

Boring stuff dude

no, i am not happy! the beau brummels' triangle album is not good. it's nearly indistinguishable from other sixties music, and it's unremarkable, to boot. the voices of the two singers leave a lot to be desired. i'm not claiming that singers must have clear voices, because a not perfect voice can be amazing, but like. c'mon.

Boring

I didn’t like this. Very boring but thankfully it was short.

I didn’t like it that much.

Not my kind of music. Pretty repeatitive.

There are so many of these 60s psychedelic bands on this list. And almost all of them should have just been given by time. This is one of them. There is nothing of value here.

Forgettable

Awful

blud meni levykaupaan ja sokkona valitsi yhen kirjotti kirjaan ja luuli etten huomaisi smh.... 28minuutin teos ei sentään tuhlaa aikaani, paitsi 28 minuuttia heh....This list has a lot more of these records than necessary. I just got one of these psychedelic folk albums two days ago, and here it's the same quiet jangly sound, the same shaky vocals, and the same ’60s Woodstock vibe. tykkään tuosta arvostelusta..sanoihin laittoi kivasti paitsi väärällä kielellä heh WRONG TONGUE I SAY...heh jumala loi kaikille oma kieli, ei voi vaihtaa.... wolf of velvet fortune

Nah. Tried to listen but just couldn’t get into it, although The Wolf of Velvet Fortune is a bit intense-I liked that one. Listen again: no Purchase for my collection: no Favourite Song: The Wolf of Velvet Fortune

Nope. Like a poor man’s Violent Femmes sitting on a sybian.

Yuck hippies

I lost interest in this album about 3 songs in...

Blergh

Sounds like what one would expect out of a recording of a bunch of kindergarten kids randomly bumping into one another.

Imagine if you took Thr Velvet Underground and removed everything good about them, and mixed with early Dylan (with everything good about him removed) - that’s what they sound like

Jopas on Tarinaa ja eri genreä, mutta silti tosi tosi 60-lukua. Plääh tosi tylsä

Tulee mieleen joku nykyajan retrobändi, joka onnistuu kusettamaan tietämättömiä ihmisiä sillä, että heidän musiikkinsa edustaa muka "aitoa" 60-lukua.

This was just weird...and not in a good way. It sounds sort of like a movie, and sort of like one of those books I got as a kid that came with a play along record. Either way, it was not good.

It's just kinda boring, it doesn't really do anything new or interesting. There's a bit too much bland folk on this list

More psychedelic nonsense I bet

Another folk album. This was not great. Sounds like Bob Dylan but not as good

First track - skip. Country. Second track - skip. Accordion. Third track - do I listen to this? It's a bit psychedelic. A blind gentleman who's the painter of women? Skip. Fourth track - OK. Let's give this a crack. There's an unfortunate ukele (or is it a banjo?) backing. But I didn't skip. Fifth track - take the pretty young girls, they don't get better. Yeah, seems a bit paedo. All the pretty girls -stop crying because you can look better... So paedo and misogynistic. Double win. Sixth track - I think I'm losing the will to live. Skip. Seventh track - skip. No comment needed. Eighth track - is this over yet? Ninth track - oh, gods it isn't. Ten. Let's channel our inner Zorba the Greek and combine it with our very best corn-worshipping guff. Last track - at least this is a bit more upbeat than the last one. Overall. Did not enjoy. Won't listen again.

Boring and so so American sounding. Not my type of music at all.

No, è una noia senza fine.

Can't stand the vocalist, a tough listen

Bob Dylan should either sue or be sued...

Sorry, I don't like country music.

gefällt nicht wirklich

Whoever put this album on this list was having a laugh. Absolute toilet.

What on earth is this? Medieval, folk, gallic, psychedelia. Very sparse sounding. No oomph. Too weird for me. 1/5.

Nope. Not for me.

nope

An album from the 60's that has no standout moments. Ruined my Sunday morning.

Boring.

An unpleasant and boring 1960s pop album.

a little too hippy but nice background cleaning music

do i look like a cowboy

AWFUL!!

Poor, very thin, lacking any real substance.

Tired of this boring psychedelic rock 60s bullshit lmao I just don't like it

Cannot stand that way of singing

#2

Too dated in my opinion. Might need some psilocybin to make this more listenable.

Nah, not for me

Ni al caso

I can't tell who this band wants to be more: Bob Dylan out Velvet Underground.

Sounds adjacent to lots of music I like, but just not doing anything for me. I can hear why the singer's voice is compared to Bob Dylan; maybe it's just an acquired taste, but I haven't acquired it yet in the same way that I have for Dylan or Geddy Lee. Overall not terrible, but didn't find much in terms of bright spots.

some shit beatles sound alike (
