Had already liked Supermassive Black hole (track 3). Like the album quite a bit - different directions than I tend to choose but with still familiar sounds.
OK, interesting to hear once, but hits many of the same things I dislike in 70s music. Feels like lazy, weekend afternoon listening when you're doing something else. Not likely to remember it much after the first listen, but I've heard far worse. By about halfway through, I was starting to feel pretty bored with it. Inoffensive background music but nothing hooking me in at this point. Tracks 15 & 16 got more and more experimental. I hated them.
This is the good side of 70s music but not the strongest example of it for me. Would happily have this come up on random shuffle of classic rock but probably won’t make the album itself a regular listen. Title track is a standout song for me. Second half of the album was pretty good. Might listen to whole album again after all.
Mellow; classic songs like "Deacon Blues", "Aja" and "Peg" - I don't always know the song name but I've heard these a lot. Not for everyday, but good for many.
Rainy afternoon, late night music. Not my usual, but it's Sinatra - it can't be bad. Still, it won't be something I listen to often.
If I could give half stars, this would be 4.5. Enjoying it quite a bit. Still on the mellow side, but easy to groove to.
There are a lot of bits here that I should like, but this album doesn't work for me. Much of it struck me as pretentious (particularly the first half) - like someone trying to craft an album specifically to make it on "you've got to hear these albums" list while critics all nod sagely and say how excitingly experimental it is. I made it through, but unlikely to ever play it again.
OK. Not super memorable. Teen me might well have been into this deeply but now, could take or leave. Might listen again, probably won't remember I heard it before.
Really liking this. It's hitting all the right spots for me. I can work to this and likely will often.
Liked this, but not mind-blowing. Definitely would relisten. Good classic rock vibes without the depth of knowledge of the songs for me to color them now. I guess I knew one of their songs (not on this album) - "Bang a Gong (Get It On)" but otherwise, seems entirely new to me.
