This is pleasant enough stuff. But I really don't know what it's doing on a list of the 1001 greatest albums of all time.
Forty years ago, I would have pretended to like this. But I've never really enjoyed most reggae. This is no exception. It includes "No Woman No Cry", but it's not the live version that everyone knows. I didn't enjoy this at all.
I can see mid-teen me enjoying this. Or, more likely, claiming to enjoy this because he thought it was cool. But it's all rather rather dull and repetitive.
Not one of my favourite Bowie albums (except for the title track, which I love) but still better than most albums or there.
I don't hate it, but it's really not my thing.
I love this album. I used to listen to it all the time. Haven't played it for years.
Really not very good.
Yeah, this is more my kinda thing. Nice 90s indie vibes.
Haven't listened to this for a long time. Really enjoyed it. Need to listen to The Doors more.
Hard to believe this is 25 years old. It still sounds as fresh as it did back in 1995. It's something I've listened to regularly over that time.
I can totally see why people would enjoy this (I might well have done so myself back when it was released) but it's not for me, I'm afraid.
I used to have this album. Maybe I still do (somewhere). I think I prefer "To Bring You My Love", but this is pretty good.
I'm sure this was thrilling in 1973. But since the advent of punk in 1977, it doesn't have the same impact.
"Seven Seas of Rhye" was the single that introduced me to Queen in 1974. I never really got into this album - but their next three all really impressed me. And coming back to the album for the first time in decades, my opinion hasn't changed. I can see why some people might like it, but it's really not for me.
Pretty standard mid-60s Atlantic output as far as I can see. There are a few well-known songs on it but, honestly, if I were looking for music like this I'd reach for a Motown Chartbusters compilation.
This does absolutely nothing for me.
I've never understood the attraction of Santana. This album has one good song on it - and the original version by Fleetwood Mac is far better.
Yeah. This is far better than the last few albums on the list. I never really listened to EBTG back then, but they were pleasant enough backing music when someone else played them. This persuades me that I should listen to them more.
Still excellent :-)
Hard to separate this from the curmudgeonly old bastard Morrison has become recently. The music is good, the man isn't.

Another Bowie album and it's (obviously) great. It's very much an album of two sides. Side one is the poppy stuff that everyone knows like "Sound and Vision"; side two is longer, more pensive and mostly instrumental pieces.
This is pleasant enough stuff. But I really don't know what it's doing on a list of the 1001 greatest albums of all time.
I have no idea at all what this album is doing on this list. At this time, Mott the Hoople were three years and four albums away from recording "All the Young Dudes" and becoming slightly interesting for a few months. This is just a pointless late-60s rock dirge.
No thank you.
I'm confused why this album is on the list. This was released ten or twelve years before any of Aerosmith's popular albums. The only thing this album has going for it is the original version of "Walk This Way", but even that isn't anywhere near as good as the Cameo version.
That's more like it. T Rex at the height of their powers are like a force of nature. And this is about as it gets. It's got two huge hit singles, "Metal Guru" and "Telegram Sam", which means this was released at about the time I first discovered the band. I don't listen to enough T Rex. I'll put that right today.

Amazingly, this is the first time I've listened to this album. It sounds like so many other late 60s albums - but I suspect this was the album that invented that sound.
Still fun :-)
