Beautiful, but perhaps just a bit too introspectively maudlin

Meh. It's fine, just not really my thing

Boring and inoffensive

Meh.

Nah

Awful

Pretty good in places, pretty average in others

Pretty awful.

The hits are great, the rest...less so

Not bad. The hits on this one are the cheesier cuts...

This hasn't aged very well - sounds very much of its time. Some good songs, but generally pretty lame, although rather easy-listening.

Still sounds bloody good. I don't love it as much as their previous two albums, but it is still excellent.

So 60s it's funny

So of it's time...could be a handful of other bands from the early 90s, all much of a muchness but all really good too. Very much my era and area

Yeah nah

Nice

Pretty classic.

Obviously a stone-cold classic...but just not really my thing

So many amazing albums from the first half of the 90s. This isn't one of them.

One of my favourite albums of all time, and one of the first I remember loving as a young child. Not so keen on DB's later stuff, but this is pure genius.

Not amazing but ok

Pretty damn funky

Such an amazing voice, great tunes...not something I would listen to that often, but definitely a classic

Fantastic. I've obviously known of The Isley Brothers for ever, but had never really listened to them. Great stuff.

Brilliantly original and distinctive.

Nice, but really not my bag

I made it through 8½, then a couple more. Some are good, some are ok, some are shit

Another giant of musical history that just doesn't do it for me

Not as good as his previous two, but still pretty good

Quite like

Another classic which I've managed to avoid for 50 years. Pretty good.

Hmm, pretty dodgy

Not massively inspiring. Kind of nice but also a bit meh

Superfly indeed. And Superfunky

Original and interesting, still sounds good to me.

Beautiful, but perhaps just a bit too introspectively maudlin

Quite bonkers, their influence on subsequent bands very evident, and their likeness to contemporaries (esp Roxy Music) also clear. I didn't love it much as I hoped I would, but I will listen again.

I was expecting this to sound really dated and was very surprised that it didn't. However, I was never a fan, and this listen didn't change that.

Yeah...fun, but not amazing

Really not my jam, but far from the unlistenable shite I had half expected

Pretty dated. Pretty mid.

Yeah nah

Still sounds surprisingly good

Like. Hadn't listened to Arcade Fire properly but this is good.

Kinda feels like standard 60s pop. Nice but not amazing. Plus it's mostly covers.

Fantastic

I'm a huge Costello fan but this is far from my favourite of his albums. Still pretty good though.

Great voice, cheesy music

Really surprised how many of these songs I knew - wasn't aware of ever having heard much besides Blister. A pretty ace album actually.

Oh God, my ears! The title track is a classic. The rest of the album is unbearable soft jazz wank.

I think this is great. Haven't relistened yet but I'm sure it will have stood the test of time.

Nice melodic quirky indie pop. Still sounding surprisingly fresh.

Country wank

Pretty great 70s pop punk. Didn't know it but like it.
