A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector

Popular Reviews

I can fast forward through any song and wherever I stop sounds exactly the same as where I started.

Wow, I was not expecting this. Sounds much older than it is, love it

Absolutely loved some of it. Some of it made me feel completely uneasy.

A Doors album on the day of an enormous fight? 🤔

For me, two stars is decent music that I like, but can’t handle in large doses. Had to split the album up throughout my day, and felt like a chore to finish it

Absolutely loved some of it. Some of it made me feel completely uneasy.

Ugh. I just cannot. Made it halfway through one song.

Enjoyable, but forgettable

Interesting instrumentals!

Two Fatboy Slim albums in one week...oof. Couldn’t finish either.

Nostalgia was nice, but listening to the whole album got whiny and old

A Doors album on the day of an enormous fight? 🤔

Easy to listen to in the background

Unexpected! Didn’t know they had already-disco sound.

Never thought to listen to them beyond Eileen, but I like it

I ended up listening to the Spotify suggestions for a long time after this ended

Wtf! This is weird stuff, not at all as expected by the cover. Some of it wasn’t too bad, most was very weird

Great except for The Kids. Holy hell, what a stressful song!

Some of it was good, but ohhhh it was not good music for my brain while not exactly sober

Turns out the length of a song is about all I can tolerate. Listened in short bursts throughout the day. A whole album is just too much at once. Love the songs I know, though!

Music is good, but the story behind the album INSANE

Not really my thing, but so many good memories of learning to drive in my ex’s purple convertible and blasting this cd with the top down

Decent chill music

Wow, I was not expecting this. Sounds much older than it is, love it

I can fast forward through any song and wherever I stop sounds exactly the same as where I started.

I’ve never heard (or heard of) Raï music before, so this was interesting, I like it.

It’s sickening trying to separate the art from the artist - 4 for the music (so many nostalgic hits), 0 for the man who married his 13 year old cousin and ruined it all

Oh this is fun. Did George just become my favorite Beatle? Wild.

It’s nice, but I think I like Leonard Cohen in smaller doses.

I like it, but was ready for the album to be over about 2/3 of the way through

I wish I’d loved the other songs as much as I love Glorybox, but still a great album.

This album feels so cozy, I’m surprised I only knew one song.

I haven’t listened to this full album in years, I was surprised by how much was unfamiliar while others stood out.

Nick Drake was one of the first albums I listened to on here, which was my introduction to him. I was instantly in love. Just as the last one, I’ve been listening on repeat all day.

Took me way too many years to listen to this full album, love it.

I liked it the first time through, then unexpectedly listened to it on repeat for the rest of the day like I was under a spell. So okay, I’ll bump it up to 5 stars.

Obsessed with this since it was brand new, such a delight to have it pop up as my album of the day

Perfect album of the day for a rainy day, we curled up on the couch and listened to it on repeat
