melancholic. slow

mellow but driving

good one

nice and bluesy

more whiny than nirvana

Hard to judge, so many years later, how different this was from its contemporaries

Sad, real world

Hopefully i'll get thriller

Beatles-esque concept album. not my fav.

Thrashy goodness

Funky

Meh

Classic. One of the best by one of the best.

Fun listen. Has some classics.

Fun listen.

Sounds epic, definitely needs a closer listen than I can give to it.

Not the kind of music I like. Too repetitive and spacey.

This album forms almost a quarter of the tracks on his Greatest Hits collection (5 out of 21), but they're all good.

Did not expect this to be country.

Surprisingly funny proto-punk.

I liked this a lot more than expected.

Recognized one of the tracks ("Same Ole Love"), otherwise I had no clue about this artist.

Beautiful voice, not really my style of music but her talent is amazing.

Cure-ish

Incredible voice!

Was much more interesting than I had expected. Must have sounded completely different from everything else in 1974.

Not really in to this.

Long album but good beats.

Not really my thing.

Always smooth Sinatra sings several version of Girl of Ipanema.

Johnny, what are you doing?

Noisy

One of the classics, so many good tracks.

I greatly prefer Pretty Hate Machine. Other than the hits (Closer, Hurt) this just sounds like noise and screaming.

Rock classic!

Way too mellow for my tastes.

How is this only 37 minutes long? Felt like an eternity.

Sounds like it was recorded last year. Awesome.

Much more interesting than I anticipated. Sitar-remakes of Jumpin' Jack Flash and Light My Fire? Awesome.

Could not get all the way through it.

Not my favorite, took several days to get all the way through.

Took 2 weeks to listen to the whole album.

Very enjoyable!

This rocked more than I thought it would. Excellent listen.

Super classic.

My father always said, the best 45 minute punk album is 21 minutes long.

Classic soul!

Interesting, but some of that was hard to get through.

Such an amazing, powerful voice.

I'm really digging this - hearing so many other influences across all the tracks.

Punk? New Wave? Both?

Classic guitar rock. No Stairway!

Cool enough

The hit - "Seven Nation Army" - doesn't sound like much else on the rest of the record. Everything was a good listen, I just don't have a deep connection to this band like I do other music.

Much enjoyed this one. Everyone knows "Bang a Gong" but I liked all the tracks.

Noisy but entertaining. And only 36 minutes long!

Nice fusion of rock and jazz.

Liking the vibe

Had it on while assembling furniture. Nice grooves buy not really my style.

Awesome early punk, can hear the influence on later bands (Go-Go's, The Waitresses)

Never heard of this artist before, very cool fusion of soul and jazz. Not my normal musical choice - not much on this list is - but I enjoyed it.

Classic 80s, great vibes.

I'd give this a 4 if we were just comparing to better Metallica albums, but this album was so influential on my own musical taste and an inspiration to learn guitar back in high school I'll have to give it a 5 just for its influence on my personal life.

Some good hits on here.

Really liked this one.

Quite enjoyable.

Lots of classics here.

Not sure what I expected; the music is pretty mellow considering Willie Nelson's reputation.

Is it bad that I didn't totally hate this? I struggled through the last 20 minutes but the first 40 were ok.

Hearing this for the first time, I can appreciate the influence on later bands that I'm more familiar with.

Not my usual kind of music, but I liked it.

Very enjoyable!

Sweet piano playing.

This was pretty good - I could swear at one point he said "It's not that leukemia", but I could be wrong.

I've never been able to get into these narrative concept albums, and this one, with its odd off-meter rapping, was a hard listen.

I messed up and listened to the greatest hits album (which contains The Grand Tour) instead of The Grand Tour itself. Well, 16 songs later I understand why country music got the reputation being about broken relationships, sadness for things lost, and drinking. Lots of drinking. One song out of 16 was happy, and it still had lots of drinking. The Grand Tour was probably better but I can't listen to any more country today.

Lots of bluesy picking and shredding here!

I did not know that a jazz version of Iron Man existed, but now I do.

Liked this more than I thought I would. Were they an influence on 2 Skinnee Js?
