This is the album that made me think that maybe there aren't 1001 albums worth listening to.

Everything on this album has been done better by someone else and where it has been done better it fits within the context of the album it’s found on. This sounds more like a resume to showcase the range of the artist.

He sounds like someone trying to sing to sound cool while simultaneously being too concerned about not being cool doing it. I never got the appeal. I often find that the inflections he puts on phrases don't match what he's singing about. It sounds like it's about him not about the song.

Not a genre I usually listen to

superb dylan poetry, a bit too mush of the shuffle rythm at times

Great Blues with lots of great collaborators

voice like rusty nails, bourbon soaked rusty nails

this one sounds like a musical for sentimentals who yearn for the past

Why have I never heard of this before?

Bowie rewards those who lister to the end with songs such as You Will Set The World On fire

Wonderful, beautiful

Post punk, ok

Kurt Cobain's girlfriend tries to reach Nirvana Highly produced belongs in the time it's from.

There are some beautif parts between moments of cacophony, I can't listen to it in the background.

Cool old style punk

It's David Bowie

Good album but I'm not into turn of the millenium R&B

Was good for its time, I'm sure.

I was surprised that I hadn't come across this album before.

Alice Cooper? Oh man, the image does not fit the sound! I've heard Andrew Lloyd Webber go harder than this!!!

Loved this 4.5 stars

Meh

Not my jam

A classic

This is the album that made me think that maybe there aren't 1001 albums worth listening to.

Why is this on this list?

It's Prince! Not his best but near the start.

Better than I expected.

More than a four

Doesn't do anything for me, it's not bad it's just not meaningful.

So much fun, I feel like an 11 year old again.

Love it!

1001 albums I "must" hear? Fuck me, what is this shit? Why "must" I hear this? Is it historical? Is it significant? Was it groundbreaking?

Surprisingly engagnig

Confusing as shit

Like it

A welcome surprise

Superb

This is a wonderful album.

Good shit

A classic

Truly amazing, how's this been kept secret?

Great Jazz

Well recorded but not for me thank you

Some good stuff in here but some tracks sound like fillers to me

Knowing them only by name I was expecting something more akin to country so it was with delight that I found some great blues

Fabulous

Ok so I thought, oh great I guess I'm supposed to rate this highly. To my surprise this album was filled with quality songs, not only the ones I, and everybody, knew but gems like Any Time At All and I'll Be Back, songs which might not have been hits at the time but stand up against time. On every track you can hear The Beatles give everything they have making the whole album an absolute treasure.

Great poetry put to good music.

Sublime

The Led Zepplin of the 90's, probably better. Still don't like it.

He sounds like someone trying to sing to sound cool while simultaneously being too concerned about not being cool doing it. I never got the appeal. I often find that the inflections he puts on phrases don't match what he's singing about. It sounds like it's about him not about the song.

It was good at the time, it stands up pretty well, unfortunately I can only rate out of five stars and five has to equal 100%, very few albums are worthy in my opinion. This one misses out on a four star by very little but, for me, not worthy in the category below perfection.

You know, if Tom Waits filmed himself taking a dump, I wouldn't want to watch it. Listening to part of this album feels like the auditory parallel of what I just described. Too much of this album sounds like Tom figuring out how the rest of it is going to sound and when he does figure it out we're served songs that might be a 3.5 at best.

There were some wonderful moments in the 90s, but some of the 90s make me think we shouldn't do them again. Green day sound like a leftover of that part of the 90s. I'm not sure how this style of music earned the moniker of punk, highly processed and produced it doesn't relate to original punk music, from either the UK or the US. I gritted my teeth and listended attently, I even thought some of it was OK but there's nothing here that I thought was a breakthrough, musically or culturally, just a band doing their thing for as long as someone is still listening. Not me, I'm not playing this album again.
