Direct quote from my wife; “Oh my god that’s terrible. Turn it off.”

I can’t believe this album made a list of albums I must listen to before I die. I think this album actually brought me closer to death. As some vocalists have a range of approximately 3 to 4 octaves, Morrissey has a range of about 3 or 4 half steps on the chromatic scale. Shoot me now.

Sounds like Morrissey, terrible.

I like the typical 1960’s sparse sound and the overuse of “stereo”.

Direct quote from my wife; “Oh my god that’s terrible. Turn it off.”

One of my favorite albums in my vinyl collection.

The album is certainly interesting, but is it really one of the albums I must listen to before I die?

Desperately struggling to dust off my high school French. (Merci Mme. Stillman) I’m rather enjoying this.

Always appreciate a good horn section

Fucking love this one

Love Iggy.

Of hell yes! John Bonham is one of my favorite drummers.

Excellent. I heard a lot of late 50’s early 60’s roots in there. I added several to my day-to-day playlist.

Aside from one or two tracks, the music doesn’t really interest me. The messages are powerful, none the less.

Terrible

Another awful album

Though most of these songs sound the same, I enjoyed hearing the sappy stories. Every song sounds like it was played while mounted on the back of a loping horse. I love these old cowboy folk tunes.

Her version of “Can’t Take My Eyes Off of yYou” is one of my favorites, and has been in my playlist for many years. I also like the classroom sound effects on the album.

Meh

Sounds like Morrissey, terrible.

Shane MacGowan’s voice and accent are wonderful on this album.

Great album. It inspired me to listen to their other early albums.

Solid

While these guys were never my favorite, there is some good funky stuff on this album.

Not my type

Big fan of the trad jazz

Meh

One of the lyrics is “as calm as a fruit stand in New York”

Ya know I got rhymes like Abe Vigoda.”

¡C’est si bon!

It all sounds the same.

I love Johnny Cash, but this is not my favorite of his albums.

Love this album.

Never knew how much ska was on this album

Nice

Ooof

Pre-Achtung Baby U2 is better than post-Achtung Baby U2

This cassette was a regular in my Sony Walkman with the orange foam headphones!
