I hate this album.....I hated it when it first came out...and I still hated it....not even going to listen to it....

1-Star Albums (61)

All Ratings (823)

Not a fan of the genre of psychedelic blues...but, I will say, Mr. Hendrix can play the heck out of that guitar!~ Best song is "Cross Town Traffic"

Enjoyed this album....Where do the children play....Father and Son.....Wild World....some of his best work!

I liked this better than I thought I might....typically not a fan of whiney British punk

I hate this album.....I hated it when it first came out...and I still hated it....not even going to listen to it....

I have never heard of Death in Vegas.. Electronica...I will give it a fair. shot.... Aisha....not bad The beat is propulsive....I can't argue that...and I suspect that is what it is designed for....for dancing.... Just not for me....

Really enjoyed this album!

Really enjoyed this!

Not a bad example of it's genre of music.....just really not for me....

Freedom is an all-time classic!! If that don't get your toes tapping...you may need to check your pulse..... Waiting for that Day, Mother's Pride were pretty good as well.... Actually this. whole album is better than I expected....

No thanks....not a fan of electronica

Just awful.....unlistenable.....

Not much of a fan of Middle Eastern Pop....

Not a metal fan....

I get the importance of the bridge between jazz, soul, and rock music...but, honestly, organ-centric jazz is just not my cup of tea.

A guy screaming at me, over noise.....blech

It wasn't offensive or anything....just don't care for electronica

Interesting Album....I can't say that I loved it....but I had no idea that Reggae was introduced into rock before the Police perfected it....

Surprisingly, I actually enjoyed this!

Some outstanding guitar work. on this album....especially the Santana collaboration....but the worst thing about this is Hooker's singing.....not his best stuff, IMHO

zzzzzzzzzz

Loretta was a groundbreaking artist....this is just not my cup of tea.

One of the truly great albums

Not a fan

Monotonous

Nope

I liked this album more than I thought I would. Of course, Rolling in the Deep, and Rumor has it, were hits....but, it was a lot less "poppy" than I though it would be. I love her voice, and it's perfect for R and B....

Ugghhh.....noise

Awful

Not as bad as I feared....music was pretty good....he is. still a touch whiney for my tastes....

Not my cup. of tea

Masterpiece

I had never heard of the Charlatans before today....they're not bad....not sure it's something I want to hear again....but, not bad.

Not awful, but not my cup of tea

Honestly, as I was listening to this....I couldn't help but picture Bill Murray doing his lounge singer act on Saturday night live....

I enjoyed this

Not bad....better than I expected

One of the top 5 most awful things I've heard....

noise

Nope

Not a fan

Awful

French pop.....not for me....

Classic.....the second best vocal harmonies in existence.....

Quality Pop

A classic album....Paul Simon has an unforgettable voice, and when you mix. in Art Garfunkle....you have the greatest harmony in history. Also incredible song writing....

Great voice!! Just not my cup. of tea

Just noise

Meh....not a huge Bowie fan.....

Just a drone....I do enjoy Lou Reed's voice and guitar work.

Jeff Lynne is a musical genius.....highlighted by his work with the Travelling WIllburys.....this is a great album.....

Classic Discoey soul....We are family will forever have a place in my heart and mind, after watching Willie Stargell and the Pirates win the World Series....but, beyond that...just not really my cup of tea....

Meh....

Early Talking Heads.....Disco Killer....not bad

Meh

Seminal Jazz Album

Not a fan

Not really a punk fan...but this was better than most punk albums I've tried to listen to.

Awful

Just not a psychedelic funk fan....

Just not a rap fan

Classic Buck Owens

Just when I though maybe Bruce was kind of winding down....he. releases this powerful fantastic album. Saw him perform "The Rising" live.....like a religious experience.....I would. give it a 5...but. then what do you do with. Born to Run.....The wild, the innocent, and. the E street Shuffle.....Greetings from Asbury Park.....Nebraska......Darkness on the Edge of. Town? Giving it a 4....but it's a 5

Not my cup of tea

I truly enjoyed this album.....fantastic guitar work.....quite unexpexted...

Not a fan

noise

Gave it an honest listen....just don't get it....

nope

Love Steely Dan.....love this album.....love the guitar work,which leans a little further to the Jazzy side, for a rock album, and is kind of their signature sound. Love the snarky, smart alecky lyrics....My old School may well be my favorite Steely Dan song.I'd give it 5, but I know AJA is probably coming.

Not a fan

Just not a huge fan of The Band

Simply not a fan of electronica

First time listening to Hole....not as bad as I feared....

not bad

Never got the attraction of Leonard Cohen

A little monotonous

Interesting

Pleasantly surprised!

I love Joni Mitchell

For rap....it wasn't bad....

Not a fan

A truly, truly great album.....allegedly from stuff they had laying around, if you can believe it, and threw together into an album. My folks gave me this album for Christmas one year, ( if you can imagine that....) and it has a special place in my heart....The guitar work, by Page....chills.

Noise

Not my cup of tea

Not a Yes fan

Claslassic Willie....twangy guitar...incredible voice....

Not a fan

Just a drone

Surprisingly good!

Not a fan

I....HATE....KISS

Noise

Decent

Classic Aerosmith

A little acoustic Bob Dylan goes a long way for me.....this was a bit too much....Bob Dylan is a class, however, so I'll give. it three stars out of respect.

Love Mark Knopfler's guitar work....can't hear "Money for Nothing" any more, since it's been taken over, commercially...but, otherwise, a pretty good album!

Not a huge Hendrix fan

Not a Bowie fan

Not a fan

Not. a fan

Pink Floyd at it's best....I'd give it a 5, but gotta make room for Dark Side of the Moon....

Better than expected

Just not a rap fan.

Not a rap fan

Alright...classic

Classic....

Pretty darned good guitar work...but not sure how often I could listen to this....

Just can't do it.....

Not my cup of tea

Not a fan of electronica

Not bad....a little poppy, but not nauseatingly so....

The Beatles at the absolute top of their powers...

Noise

Not a fan of Yes

Not a fan of live albums

Classic FLeetwood Mac...but a bit of a let down from Rumors

Not too bad

Meh

Not too bad

Not a fan

I love Paul Simon...but this was not, in my opinion, his best work.

Kind of enjoyed this....surprisingly....kind of a combo of rap and funk

meh

I remember when this album debuted....I was absolutely floored....such talent, such a message in her song writing.....This. is truly a great classic 5 star album!

This is, ( in my opinion ), the best ZZ Top album, because they are closer to their blues roots, and it is years before they took on the over produced style of the 80-90's....

Not a fan of the Kinks

Classic

Meh

meh

I liked this, a lot more than I thought I would!!

The greatest album, by one of the greatest rock guitarists and song. writers!!

Simply a classic!!

Meh

I liked this more than I thought I might....

Greatest live album ever....

Noise

This was a pleasant surprise....I knew a band with Rod Steward and Ron Wood existed, but had never heard the actual album....Great group

Meh...just kind of droning....

Great album, by a great group....Rush found a niche and a sound all their own....and, have, probably the greatest Rock and Roll drummer in history, in Neal Peart!

Not a fan

Not a rap fanq

Meh

Classic

I am not a rap fan...but, this is brilliant, and a cultural icon.

Ahh...disco!

Meh

Not a fan of electronica

Not a huge David Bowie fan.....The song Heroes, is a classic though.

noise

First time that I have listened to Aimee Mann...kind of sounds like a Sheryl Crow, without her gift for an infectious hook....

Just not a fan

classic

Just not a fan of metal

Classic Joni

Not quite there....

Not a Bowie fan

Ummm....French rap??

Not a huge Cuban music fan, but this was enjoyable

Just not a fan of Janis Joplin

truly great album!!

Classic Aretha!!

If you only own one jazz album....this is it....

Seminal album in the history of rock and roll...plus, possibly the finest piece of work, by a truly brilliant artist!

Man, this album and artist came out of nowhere....little soul, little blues, little jazz....and a great voice! Great Album!

I am not a rap fan, but I give credit for the social importance of this band...
