What lyrics I could understand I did not enjoy. Some of the samples were grating. I gave it a few songs before I was done.

I'm surprised I'm not familiar with this band or album, because the sound/style is pretty similar to some of my favorites. Good find.

Where has this been my entire life? I don't listen to bluegrass often, but now I know where to find (a lot of) it when I want it. I liked the mix of sung and instrumental songs and the included conversations. It's amazing how tight the takes are, considering the complexity of the music and the number of contributors, but these are talented people after all.

I like this sound, even though Neil Young's voice sounds somewhat out of place to me. The tone of the guitar made me wish I could pick it up and play along.

I suffered through it. I tried to see what people like about this. The rhythm, the rhymes. But for me, the voices are annoying, the topics are not interesting, and half the time I was trying to decipher what they actually meant by this phrase or that--usually unproductively, sometimes with regret.

Only recognized Heart of Gold and Old Man. Not a fan of Harvest. Like the pedal steel and harmonica. Pretty orchestral music but kind of a weird combo.

She does have a great voice. Rich tone, variable texture, controlled, but borders on too nasal at times. Not generally a fan of the poppy bouncy style of music or the chanting. Love Song didn't sound good. Mostly pretty depressing lyrics for the happiness of the music. Ironic, but not really in a good way. Exception is Cherish--probably the best song.

New to me, but what a perfect album! This one is ironically upbeat in a good way. Great concept executed just right. He had the voice/style/personality to pull it off. I wouldn't listen to it over and over, but I like it for what it is.

All kinds of interesting genre mixing going on and I have to acknowledge the great technical skill on display. But as a matter of taste I just don't really like it.

Don't really like the bluesy tuneless vocals. I like the grungy tones being produced, but some of the weirder experimentation goes on too long.

The playing/recording of the solo sax is incredible. It jumps out from the rest and it's like I can hear the tone coming off of every molecule of the instrument. After the first few tracks the album devolved into sameness/background music. More vocals or changeups might have kept me more interested.

I like her lyrics and melodies, but sometimes the lack of structure leaves me a little unsatisfied. It's not necessarily a bad thing. I might like some of her other songs better.

Wow. I've never intentionally listened to Black Sabbath, maybe because it was too old or something. I've heard some of the songs a lot, but I never knew what a great complete album it is. Cohesive sound, but enough variation between tracks to stay interesting.

Sort of a cool sound with the organ, and I liked his voice. I'm not as big on such long songs/solos.

I liked the variation between tracks. I also like a certain amount of "lazy" playing on the brass, where the squeaky sound adds character. I did think it was used a little excessively in this case, sometimes sounding more like goose calling than music.

Compared to Folsom, this one fell a little flat to me. A Boy Named Sue is fun.

Nope. I assume it is on this list for being daring at the time, but that doesn't mean it sounds good. Mildly funny at times, like the "doo wop" throwback.

I like the variation in tempo/sound, but wanted more variation in subject matter. I guess it's what the people wanted at the time. Good track lengths.

I had never actually listened to a Beatles album from beginning to end, though I've heard a lot of their songs many times. But I really enjoyed this album. It flows really well and I liked the songs I hadn't heard before.

I liked the music and the lyrics, but I think I would like this a lot more if someone else was singing. There were times that it sounded like he actually had a good voice, but for the most part was purposely tired and pitchy.

Not very charming lyrics. Reverb sounds cool but loses its novelty.

I had only heard one song from this before. I liked it, and it was interesting to learn about. Although the African influence was cool, I did get a little tired of the constant pep.

It's hard to rate this one. I'm glad I heard it, because it's unique. I like the variation between tracks, the edginess, and the poetic lyrics. I especially liked the pretty piano contrasting the grungy sound. That said, the overall sound is not pleasing enough to put on repeat, but I might come back when I want a lady to yell musical poetry at me.

That was not enjoyable. I would probably like the music with other subject matter, but in this case the lyrics are the songs.

I like this sound, even though Neil Young's voice sounds somewhat out of place to me. The tone of the guitar made me wish I could pick it up and play along.

Pretty good. I liked the guitar better in Ragged Glory but I think Neil Young's voice is more suited to the slower ballad type songs.

I liked the sounds of the music more than the lyrics/singing. I appreciated the singing more than usual rapping that goes with this genre, but the vocal melodies were not particularly imaginative. One takeaway was that I have not known many extremely wealthy people nor drug-addicted people in my life. #sheltered

I did not know that psychedelic folk existed. Now that I have heard it, I'm not in love with it. It was fun to hear once. Some of the time, the conglomerated layers of instruments sounded less composed and more randomly thrown together.

I didn't understand the lyrics much, but it kind of works. I like the sound, but all of the songs were pretty much the same.

I like her voice, and I like it better when she sings in Portuguese. The overall sound is kind of boring, but also relaxing. Good background music.

From the beginning of the album, I was waiting for the one-hit wonder. I didn't know what it was, but every song sounded so generic that I knew there must be one. Lovefool was it. Nostalgia makes that song enjoyable, but the rest was only tolerable. Iron Man was kind of weirdly fun.

I liked the synth and textures/layers of the music for the most part. The singer's vocal style is so big/dramatic that it's more comical than enjoyable.

What lyrics I could understand I did not enjoy. Some of the samples were grating. I gave it a few songs before I was done.

I really only recognized the first track. Overall, I liked the music. The singing style is enjoyable for a little while, but then gets old. My ears wanted to ignore it enough that I didn't pay much attention to lyrics. I was surprised that there was so much of a southern/blues sound given that they are British.

I liked it. The flanger effects were probably overdone but I'm sure it was a novelty at the time.

I'm surprised I'm not familiar with this band or album, because the sound/style is pretty similar to some of my favorites. Good find.

What they do, they do well. The style isn't the kind of thing I could listen to every day, but when I'm in the mood it's good stuff.

For me, it is most decidedly not jiggaboo time.

I like the music and the general vibe, but I can only endure the singer's voice for a short while. I would listen to them in a mix.

I like to hear her voice now and again. I think the length of the songs and album are the right amount. None of the songs on this particular album are very memorable for me.

I liked the last track the most. Overall, the sound is good but not interesting enough for me to really pay attention. It's more background music. But, Ben Gibbard's cover album takes it to that next level for me. It's more what my ears want to hear.

I don't know how an album this recent made it onto the list, but this and folklore were my pandemic guilty pleasures. I like folklore much more though.

I was a little intrigued, but in the end couldn't get over his voice.

These weren't the Gershwin songs I'm most familiar with, but they're good and she's great.

The singing is hit and miss, but I do like the music throughout. Several of the songs are instantly recognizable because of their distinctive tone and catchy licks.

This one was awesome. The one about making pie and buona sera were good discoveries to be shared.

This is some of the more listenable early punk I've heard.

I liked the second half more than the first half.

I was surprised by how much I liked it. I've heard of "ELO" but never listened on purpose. A couple of tracks were familiar. My least favorite thing is the "spacey" synth stuff, but there's a pretty good mix of sounds going on. The vocal style might be a little fatiguing, but it's consistent and ties everything together.

I never knew I liked this band or album, but more than half of the songs have somehow stuck in my brain over the years, so I must have liked them enough to keep listening wherever/whenever I heard them.

It was good. Probably wouldn't seek it out again.

If this is the greatest hip hop album of all time, then I should probably stop giving hip hop a chance.

Interesting. I liked moments of her voice, but overall the sound was just too weird to be enjoyable.

Instrumentals are what I would expect, but prefer singers who have some semblance of singing ability, even if it's metal.

Pretty good discovery from this genre that I hadn't heard before. A death album that doesn't sound like death.

That was silly.

I liked a few tracks. Really didn't like a few tracks.

Surprisingly musical for the grungy style. It might grow on me if I listen a few more times.
