                            “In My Life” is maybe the most beautiful song ever
                            
                            What a fucking album!
                            
                            Perfect mix of poppy and psychedelic, catchy diddies and meloncholy anthems...Feels like the transition album from “early” Beatles to “later” Beatles

                                Fleetwood Mac
                            
                    
                    
                            A classic album
                            Track 1 is a foot stompin good time
                            Dreams is overplayed but still good
                            Track 3 giving me Led Zeppelin instrumental vibes and I like it
                            Go Your Own Way and The Chain still bang
                            I love Gold Dust Woman, what a perfect last track. Didn’t someone in the 90s cover this song?
                            
                            So many hits on this album, so many songs I’ve heard 1000 times, it makes me appreciate the lesser known ones
                            
                            Stevie isn’t full Stevie-vibrato on this album(and that’s why I like it)
                            
                            Fleetwood Mac doesn’t not = Stevie nicks, love that this album features them all

                            Hey ho let’s go!!  Beat-on-the-brat I like it, Sounds like a mix of punk and new ageyness.  Now I want to Sniff some glue lol. I’ve always heard of the Ramones as masters of 3 chords and that their songs “all sound the same”.  Not usually a fan of punk that’s just noise, but Ramones is like punk energy that’s catchy as fuck.

                            First song impressions - loud and raw and stripped-down. Reminds me of the White stripes/Black keys/Hives/Strokes era of rock music, and I like it. 
                            
                            Punk as fuck 🤘
                            
                            Track 3 kinda a mess. Track 4 a bit more melodic and funky, singer working herself into a frantic state by song’s end.

                            Jazz man. Cool album name.  I’m not sure I’ve just sat down and listened to a jazz album front to back, til now. I liked what I heard, but honestly it was bascially background music while I worked.  As that it worked fine. Dave Brubek came up after this album was over and it felt much more accessable and re listenable for my tastes.

                            I thought I had never heard of this band, but Holes sounds really familiar.
                             Either way, I love that first track and listened to it 3 times before proceeding with the rest of the album. Is that a theramin? Whatever it is, love that high pitched  note that adds eerieness to the songs.  
                            Sounds like a soundtrack to a good indie-movie.  
                            Sexy Saxophone?  Lots of instruments and sounds experiments happening. Radiohead-like?
                            Goddess on a Hiway  is just a great pop song.

                            Rockin guitar, bluesy guitar, steel guitar, country guitar, my kind of musico. Loved most of the songs, not a perfect 5 stars because the slower songs disappointed a bit. Can feel the Pearl Jam influences here. Love track 2, never knew it was Neil Young!

                            This was supposed to be my review for Prodigy (did not listen to Judas Priest):  mmb-sss-mmb-sss-mmmb-ssss dance music. Wasn’t as into it when it came out as I am into this style now. Clearly an influential album. A lot heavier/more metal than like Fatboy slim or Moby (real or fake moby).  Lots of these tracks could still come out today and be played, and they’re 20+ years old. That’s says something. I like a lot of this, some isn’t my style. Firestarter makes me laugh picturing the guy in the video. Not a great song. But the first tracks on the album still slap.

                            I like this kind of operatic rock music. And albums that progress and have a theme, and songs with multiple medodic shifts in tone

                            Calming background music. I think I used to listen to this while studying in law school. Wonder how Sufjan’s ambition to record 50 albums named after all the US states is going?......

                            I get that this is supposed to be progressive rock, but this didn’t connect with me at all. The voices were grating and music was ok at times (horns!), but at others was awful noise.  It’s just mostly bad, in an uninteresting way.  1 extra star for effort/ concept. I listened to some of their 80s stuff after the album and liked it a bit better

                            Formative album for me. Listened to it many times in my teenage years.  I think the Melon Collie and the Infinite sadness album is better overall, but this one has a raw angst that can’t be denied. Billy Corgan’s high screeching voice sounds like his guitar riffs at times (Bee Gees-esque)
