Hard to find something to enjoy about this record. Weird 80s beats and all the songs sound the same.
Sounds like unmemorable early Weezer
I was about to give up on this project. I really was; then I drew this record. I love the whole project. Prog rock, reggae, dancehall, dub, soul - so much blended into one unique sound. Reminds me of 311. Also one of the greatest songs of all time. So I’m finally proud to give an album 5 STARS on this journey. Hopefully the first of many. 🔥🔥.

True childhood classic - saw Rock perform most of this record live back in 02.
Can appreciate it sonically, but did not enjoy listening to it.

Solid listen. Premier beats are top notch and Guru's rhymes are somehow smooth and sharp. Execution of a Chump was my favorite track
Good vibes, solid study music. Jazzy organs and saxophones compliment the mood. I had never heard of Jimmy Smith before today.
My first experience with afrobeat!! Enjoyable listen, starts strong with Wonder Wonder. This feels like you stepped off the plane in West Africa for the first time. Hope you like brass and percussion.
Tried. Couldn't get into it. Recognized the singles from movies and random pop culture references. Not for me. 1/5
Some good guitar moments, but the vocals drone on too much for me. I wanted to like this record, but never felt the spark. The riffs on Fountain and Fairfax are decent.
Finally, some good guitar work in this 1001 album run. The first time I've ever sat down with Thin Lizzy. This is one of the best mixed live records I have ever heard. The bass is actually audible and the vocals don't drown everything out. Emerald is riff city. Rosalie is a Seger cover for a nice addition. Sounds like glory days rock and roll.
Nothing that I would want to listen to again. I recognized Dreamer.
I find it interesting that I had never heard of or listened to these guys before, being so heavy into 311 and Sublime types. This was an enjoyable listen, but nothing that really hit home. Smoke Em and Scooby Snacks are the highlights of this record. This sounds like the band that opens for Sublime on tour and you think about buying their merch.
Fire! 2 heaters in Love in an Elevator and Janie’s Got a Gun. Real deal blues rock. The Other Side also has some replay value. I’ll be back to this record.
Some of the lyrics are interesting but that is about all I can take from this. This album is not for me.
Very low key, chill, guitar driven, old time rock and roll. A tad repetitive overall. No real singing moments or lyrics that stuck with me. I can appreciate a couple of guitar parts, but that’s about it. Not likely to revisit.
Solid - never heard of this band before today. Highlights are If I Can’t Change Your Mind and Man on the Moon.
Definitely a Pharrell/Frank Ocean *almost* lo-fi lovechild. Tokyo has interesting lyrics. The drums really pop on Them Changes - probably my favorite one on the album. It feels the most cohesive. This one didn’t blow me away but it was worth listening to.
Never heard until now. About what I expected. Good guitar driven, singer-songwriter album. Nothing that gave me chills, but nothing that made me want to turn it off. Would revisit.

Funky jazzy head nod hip hop. The back half of the album is way better than the beginning. Q’s rhymes go up another level and the beat selection is nice. I like the cover art. Move probably is the track most likely to be revisited.
Blowing in the Wind is the highlight of the album. Probably won’t revisit.
I’m not on nearly enough drugs to appreciate this kind of music. I’m sure KG&TLW fans dig this, but I cannot. WHERE ARE THE 5’s?!
Audible excrement. Semi interesting riff on Teenage Werewolf. Starting to wonder why I’m doing this.
Good listen, lens into another era.
Nah I’m good
Despite having Cars in my head for the last 30 years, I couldn’t get into this record.

Very enjoyable listen. Great guitar work - no filler at all. Saved a couple of songs.
Enjoyable. Didn’t want to turn off. Impressed this is a live record.
