5/5 - Having never listened to Parliament, this was excellent - I see why they are in the same vein as James Brown; a fun listen

5/5 - not my jam, but interesting for what it is

5/5 - Super cool. Whoever said he was in between EJ and PmC was right - very nice vibe to it

5/5 - Actually excellent

5/5 - Awesome

4/5 - Not my cup of tea, but good for what it is

5/5 - kinda like James Taylor; Marlene is a standout

5/5 - Classic stones

5/5 - Iconic; The definition of 80's hard rock

2/5 - I respect his body of work and that there is an audience that adores him, but Prince is not for me. *shrug*

3/5 - Some standouts, but it felt... too uniform?

5/5 - well that was unexpected! Off to Dead Kennedy's and Sex Pistols now

3/5 - Didn't love it.
