Classic salsa, pretty lovely.

I'm a street walking cheetah with a heart full of napalm

I know this one by heart!

Very cool desert blues, moody

not my cup of whatever sugary drink this is

nope.

not happening.

meh

I know this one by heart

no way

nice, but overstays its welcome

Love this record.

nope

not bad at all, roots reggae, lyrics on spot

Dreamy and psych, but requires the correct state/day/attitude

You can't argue with a classic.

PJ showing the world she can climb the charts keeping her alternative integrity perfectly untouched. Monumental.

Boring

Eric Satie this isn't.

too much country for my own good

Not for me

fair enough if you like country music

Nowhere Man alone would make this record a 6-star, but then you've also got Girl, Norwegian Wood and ... hell, go on and listen to it!

No no no nopes

nah.

not my jam

Overstays its welcome, bloated with instruments

Talkin' a lot, but not sayin' anything

good, I guess, but not my jam

Probably the pinnacle of their production. R.E.M. don't get better than this record, for me.

I dig a couple of these songs. But Sunny Afternoon is a classic.

definitely not bad but far from my tastes.

Best Bowie album not by Bowie.

mmm nope

no.

Sometimes too much is too much

Unmissable.

Can't go wrong with Bob Mould

nah.

not my jam, but groovy

strangely fascinating but too strange

hipster supermarket music

literally worn out the cd when this came out. They were never again this good.

something happens and I'm head over heels

not my jam but still iconic

big sky!

never.

big irooooon, big iroooon

Revolution starts at home, preferably in the bathroom mirror

not my jam, though classy, but really really not my jam

cool as can be, even if not my everyday cup of tea

all due respect - not my jam

cool!

When you have Red Barchetta, Limelight, Tom Sawyer and YYZ all on the same record, it's difficult to rate anywhere lower than 5/5.

I don't think there is anything significant that I could write about this record that hasn't been already said or written, its value being immense, its songs (all of them) practically immortal classics and the Butch Vig production practically overproducing everything in it. The "commercial" face of Nirvana, but you wouldn't ever want to live in a world without those songs IMHO. Not as punk as Bleach, not as beautifully sick as In Utero, but a true display of power, melody, taste, lyrics and sounds perfectly blended - an unicum, if you will.

I only knew "Sunshine Superman" and "Seasons of the witch" prior to this suggestion and I have to say: very cool, laid-back, chill album.

great comeback.

too much country for my own good

Sex beat, go!

as cool as it gets.

"See the vegetable man in the vegetable van" has to be one of the strongest openers yet.

Beautifully nocturne and pensive.

get out of here.

nah.

Their best.

nah.

Their masterpiece. Skin tears your heart every time she sings "Secretly". Their prev records are good, but this is over the top.

nice honest r'n'r bluesy enough, doesn't fuck around, cool little treat if you're into the genre.
