Amazing

Should be removed from the list

Classic

Revolurionary

Jamie's rhythms and beautiful sounds, Romy's and Sim's gorgious voices are once again an immense joy to hear.

Très bien et geignard

Seems ok

Really pleasant listening. A typical album of its time. And a great voice.

Première partie d’album connue par coeur. Fin d’album moins connue. Et pourtant j’ai entendu Joan of Arc très souvent.

Old rap is too rough on the edge

Some parts sound flat but others are full of energy. The communion with the public Is palpable.

I don’t think that I heard this album before. It seems very long, with some very heavy pieces (rapping on hard is rarely my thing) and some jazzy (mostly) instrumentals. Probably not my thing.

I should listen to it more, to understand the hype.

I prefer TT here, during their poppy era, more than during their more feted later albums, which I find flat and overproduced.

Super heavy stuff. Some moments of brilliance but too long and heavy for me. I’ll keep on listening about once a year.

Inconsistant, but a few crazy tracks make it a special album.

Seems in line with Are you experienced and electric ladyland. Quality, but I still don’t get the fuss, after 30 years.

I didn’t pay much attention. I will come back to it at sont point.

Very good album. Too long, same as many albums of that time. Many very memorable songs. Diverse in styles.

Not my favourite genre yet, but I’m not completely giving up

An ok album, nothing more

Superb album. Too heavy to listen too often, but brilliant nonetheless

Probably enjoyable after a few listens. Will that ever happen thought?

Starts very well but the end is dull prog/ambient/blues

Possibly a good album but a bit too raw. And I know several albums of that time.

Amazing cover, great intro. Then the rest of the album is good, typical Sabbath minus the Celtic bores.

I really didn’t know this album and listened to it 3 times today. It left no impression at all. But at least it’s a start and hopefully next time I’ll start enjoying. Texture and sound are good.

Great album. Band commercially super successful but not enough critical appreciation.

Not a very good album in a way. WLWH is poor, Sister Ray not as good as the JD cover, etc But a great artistic statement.

Dated.

Whine whine

Really not exciting.

Very good guitar album, from start to finish.

Still sounds exactly like what it is: a Lizzy Mercier des loud rip-off

Great album of its time

Ok album

Still only 1 song wonder, no?

Quite bland, considering his Jam output.

Not that bad

Fun

Not a Fall period that I like

Sounds quite good actually

Big ups , rest still sounds average

Some hits and misses, but I must come back

Great album, except for the singer’s voice

A good surprise.

Quite mild, which always surprises me.

Bof

2 great songs at the start then a pleasant album of its time

Great

Too long. A few great sings

I don’t really need another Beach Boys album from the sixties. It sounds like pet sounds.

Some good songs. Not convinced it’s a great album.

Still gets better energy listen

Worth more listens

Too many weak parts. Great cover once again.

Too long and sound the same all along

Not his best but still

Dull

Stylish and not excessively wordy

Fun

A strong Beach Boys album

With coming back to

Not bad

I still don’t get it completely, after many listens

Seems very strong

Not interesting

Way too folky for me

No waste

Maybe one day

Sounds great

Where we already hear what she will become.

Monotonous

I’m still not impressed. One great song only.

Actually 1/2 excellent

No waste at all

Sounds good

Great singer

Half great

Fun but there is better

Amazing

A bit too long.

I should go back

1/2 known by heart

Was exciting

String but annoying voice

Strong

Great pleasure

Might actually be ok,but very similar to Clapton and more

Much much better than I expected

Strong

Modern classic

Very good but same as the one I know

I am still not convinced

Excellent

Classic newman

Excellent.

Good but not as good as Prefuse 73

Very strong

Sounds really interesting

Cool, sexy. Too long.

A bit overrated and inconsistent but somehow still great

Boring

What a second album. !

Need to come back

After all these years, I’ve never got it. There are hundreds of albums from the seventies which I like more.

Winge whine

Horrible!

Excellent

Too much ambiant stuff to be perfect

Sounds great

Not unpleasant but dull and long

Very good

Very good. A bit too long and some songs sound similar.

Really enjoyable

Aged

I should come back

Not my favourite cure album but still almost perfect

Amazing

Too winge and not all the songs are great.

Excellent. Ages very well.

Super bland, after many listens.

Punchy

A tad overrated but many great moments

Really not interested

I want to go back

I should really know it better

Sounds too much like the other albums. Hard to judge on our own merit.

To listen

Still amazing.

I guess I like it very much.

Illuminated

Too well produced, too sweet. Not a real Cocteau album.

Ok

Not my favourite prince album. Some of the driums are simply irritating

Heavy and commercial.

Great start. I don’t know the end so well

Some surprisingly good bits

Extraordinary single. Rest is fine, from its time.

Classics à gogo

Excellent

Great album (do I know the last song?)

Not as good as the first one but still…

A bit repetitive but interesting

Listen again

Intense

Excellent vibes but a few songs don’t hit off

Heavy

I may finf something about this album which I like, but it’s unlikely that I will ever come back.

Come back. A bit like Donovan.

Seems great

Sounds really enjoyable

Enough Yes albums!

Excellent, exciting diverse

Excellent

That was impressive for the time

Some great sounds

Boring and annoying voice

Only a few great hits. The rest I’m not sure.

Sound of its time.

Amazing.

Seems really entertaining but after 4 listens, I could not catch a tube.

Overrated

One of many

Too wordy

Charlie Oleg

A bit boring but charming

Seems bland and a pale copy of the Beatles

Brilliant. Interesting and moving.

Not bad

One in a million similar albums

Really not my thing

No waste

Sounds good

2 very good songs and that’s all. Doesn’t age well

Strong but I am not attached

Brilliant

Sounds good, modern for the time.

Good but not that good

I thought that I knew it well, but I don’t. The sound production is too heavy and there seems to be many fillers.

Seems strong. Probably not much my type ever.

Still not impressed.

Heavy and MOR. What a terrible singer. But credit to the huge commercial success.

Same as 2 of of theirs

Sounds over produced but still good

Classic

Not sure. Seems to lack some punch

Too long and doesn’t feel so innovative for the time. But sounds fun.

Not his worst

Hard to say

I still don’t get Gillian Welch

Really enjoyed it

Not sure

I may enjoy but I don’t think that I can ever be fan

Some top notch songs but others are transparent

Great end to end. Hard to admit.

Whiny but exceptional

Boring

Seems ok

Damn boring… again

Exceptional start. Then becomes a bit boring.

Some good bits. Introduced electronic music to millions of chavs.

Very good

Not as great as the first 2, but surly very strong

Horrible singer. Still.

Some really good stuff but I feel that I only know the start of the album, after many listens.

No please no!

Jamie's rhythms and beautiful sounds, Romy's and Sim's gorgious voices are once again an immense joy to hear.

Makes me want to discover it more

Seems lostenable

Very good. Doesn’t age that badly.

Should be removed from the list

Perfect

A landmark album of ours time

All tracks are excellent

Perfection in improvisation?

Probably Hendrix’ best album

Somehow not great but I still listen to it regularly

Really horrible stuff. Hasn’t aged well at all.

A bit flat

Fun and good

Pleasant but not interesting. Can we move on?

Still not

Sounds good. Not sure if it’sa 3 or 4.

Very pleasant albeit a bit flat.

Every song is exciting. Definitely Bowie’ top

Brilliant

Seems great. I thought I knew it.

Still not great Percussions are horrible

Covers. Some good songs.

Influenced Dylan

Same as too many albums of that time

Is there a 4.5?

Some great songs

Very good

So many memories

Not sure yet

Seems good

Very unique

Not as good as its reputation

Might just be worth exploring

Some really good songs

Good Christmas album

A little gnangnan

Too mellow

I’ll listen to it again

Most of it is strong, some fillers and some probably not so great songs

Sound is to shrill

A bit repetitive

Superb

The most remarkable thing about this record is that it was commercially successful.

Seems ok. Vulgar but ok.

I really don’t like this kind of rhythm section but other than that it’s ok

Modern classic

A bit boring

Good

The 4 odd songs I recognise are great

Really interesting

Really not great

Great stuff

Good

Some great songs

Not sure

Great band

A bit flat

Still not mature, but loads of hits

I should go back

Ok ok ok but quite bland

On of my favourite albums ever

Ok

Too many great songs not to give it a five

Hits and void

But heavy but very good

Dolphins is one of the best songs ever.

Boring

Probably very good but I really don’t value it.

I should listen again

Not sure

Incredibly heavy stuff

After years of listening to the album, I’m still not finding most tunes

Much better than I thought

Some got turned

Almost perfect

A little bit more commercial than one might expect

Excellent. So lovely

Obviously

À couple of flat songs

Getting used to it.

Strong

Not sure

Too many fillers to be a 5

Good

Seems like one song.

Whiny

No

Unique

Horrible

A couple of weaker songs, and too many covers but still

A nice rediscovery

I still can’t, after 30 years

Patchy and horrible cover but songs are good

One of the top post punk albums

Not hard or nasty enough yet

Doesn’t age well

I still don’t get it

Ok

Next one definitely more consistent

Pleasant

Beautiful

Not sure

Does not age that well

The covers I know are really not as good as the originals

Incredibly heavy. Who likes this?

Maybe not so bad

Seems addictice

Doesn’t age well

Wonderful

Joyful

Very strong

Hard to say. Probably not for me.

Rock & roll is back

I was going to give it a 5 but 1/4 of the songs are not that great

Sounds really good

Great first album

Seems dull

Still totally unconvinced

Exciting

Full of great stuff

Not my favourite from that time

It’s actually a 5 compared to other bands, but for a Beatles album, compared to the later phase in their career, it’s pretty uninteresting

Ok

Mostly great

Great sound. Super innovative at the time.

Great, actually

Perfect

What can we say?

A bit too basic. Teenage Kick is amazing. The guitars sound like That Petrol Emotion

Interesting

Quite funky in some places

Don’t know

Some really beautiful tunes

Flat

Excellent. Joyful.

Sometimes not so heavy

Full of great songs, a little bit inconsistent

No idea after listening 3 times

Really no

Verbose

Sexy, funky but a bit undiverse

Excellent

US punk always seems basic to me, un melodic.

Great sound

Amazing. What a sound.

A few exceptional songs

Incredible first side. Completely flat second side

Strong bit overrated

Seems good but too close to their other albums

Bof

Really doesn’t age well. It was an important album to join the dots between folk, country and the Velvet Underground. But now it really sounds boring.

Inconsistent song structures but absolutely amazing. Just think that he sang I wanna be your dog just a few years later.

It was never that interesting, but ended album of the year for several music magazines. Was it such a bad year?

Quite pleasant

IMO not that great. Beginning is bleak but in a Big Star way. It’s just not so beautiful. Then the rest of the album is more classic Neil Young, but not at his best. Great album cover.

Not bad but not as good as Neil Young or CSNY stuff

A bit heavy but pleasant

Really good

Dry but good

Really irritating

Marvelois

Still not a fan

Surprisingly great, for such a gnangnan album

Absolutely horrible

Great sound great songs great voice

Best RS

Too long

Too long

Sounds good

Always sounds the same

Not a fan yet

Revolurionary

Some pure classics

Only 1 listen, please

Some interesting wresting stuff

Not so bad

Not as exciting as it sounded the first time I heard it

Not my favourite Jam album.

Not perfect

Great

One of my favourite albums of the past 20 years

Fun

Still great

Spellbinding

Classic

A bit soft

Always the same

À pire wonder

Boring

Seems interesting

Brilliant. Exciting

Some excellent bits

Sounds nice with a hit wonder

At least one amazing song

Mmm reall heavy

Too much rocknroll

Horrible stuff

Surprisingly good

Great

Best MOR album ever

I still don’t understand Elvis Costello, after years of trying

Excellent

Seems fun

still underwhelmed

Too crazy?

Weird attempt at being commercial

Overrated but still very good

A better Byrds

Uninteresting

Not my cup of tea but excellent

On and off

Ok

Too long?

Ok

JT are very unique

What is there to say. One of the best albums ever.

Oddly overrated. Not TW’s best

Too many basic covers

Too many fillers

Not impressed

Perfect

Getting used I to it

Fun

Ok

Very strong.

Worth knowing better

Seems very robust

Let’s come back to this one

Strong

Very interesting

Marvelous

Amasing start

Seems quality

Great

Overrated in the sense that it’s a good album but I can’t see how it could be someone’s best album of all time

The 80s were sometimes terrible

Nice

Sticky

My fav Springsteen

Fantastic

The end is a bit long and they repeat the old recipe anyway

Surprisingly appealing

Some great songs. Others a bit boring.

Excellent songs horribly produced

Really fantastic. Refreshing balance between Bjork’s sparkly outbursts and the bands almost dull post punk influenced indie music

A bit bland

Playful and tuneful

Starts like a Ferrari with a handful of annoying hits. Then becomes forgettable.

Exciting

Good

Dry

Flat

Half the songs are amazing, the rest are rubbish. How is that even possible ?

Really dull apart from the first song

I’m’a bit bored of this

Interesting

Tried 4 times. Not so interested

Fresh

Overrated but still a 5

Amazing Exciting, corrupt, tuneful.

Why did he think (and his fans) that piano bar music was ok? A few great songs but not many.

Worth going back to

Better than I thought. More metal than nu metal.

Nice

Very impressive start for a kid, but a tad too long.

Amazing

Slightly not as good as 2, but still incredible

Fun

Cutting music

I tried to like LN, but I find her high pitch annoying and repetitive, her songs too verbose and barely any of her tunes catchy.

Seems worth coming back to

The eighties were so heavy. Sometimes I can’t stand the drums.

Incredibly overrated by everyone, starting from Pitchfork. It’s over complicated, barely tuneful, the singers are annoying, etc. I didn’t understand the hype at the time and still don’t understand. Looking back, 2009 was a bad year in music, except for the xx.

Probably most influential riot girls album

Great tunes all around

These punk albums all sound a bit the same, don’t they?

Sounds really interesting. Certainly worth more listens.

Was probably relevant at the time, but has probably been copied too many times since then.

Some great songs, others less impressive

Mmmm not sure.

Far too overproduced. MJ’s contribution is also annoying.

Not awful actually.

Outstanding first album

I still don’t get steely dan. It’s too polished.

Incredible album. The craziest ever?

Annouing

Decent NY album

Sooo long

One of my favourite albums of all time.

Strong, with some hits

Really disappointing from the ex Smiths leader.

Much better than expected: playful, tuneful, entertaining

A bit flat

Seems fun but not my type

Excellent but they didn’t really evolve much after that

There must have been plenty of better albums that year

Seems interesting but annoying when catchy

Could they not find better albums? (I know tens)

Ok

Not so interesting

No more blues please

Excellrnt

Really not a genre that i like

Ok ok ok not that bad

Fantastic

One of my favourite albums.

I’ve known this one for a long time. I have not cracked it, far from it, but it gives me good feelings.

Ages well

Nu metal was a disease

Fun

I don’t know

Canne too late , after the first daft punk

A bit too cheesy because overproduced

Excellent

Lovely

Some amazing tracks, a fantastic sound. Overall, this is an incredible album.

Interesting

Absolutely fantastic

Much better than expected. Did they influence Arctic Monkeys?

Really didn’t enjoy

Should that not be the most famous jazz album ever?

Really great

What a terrible bore.

A bit dull

Please stop. That’s enough. I don’t want to hear any hard rock cover of talking heads.

So peculiar for an album with standard instruments

Not his best. And I’m not sure why it was his most rated album for a long time.

Really nice

Still a bit disappointed after hearing so much that it was one of the best live albums ever. The Doors or Joy Division have done better.

Sounds good even though I’m not sure if Brian ENO is a good choice as a producer

Some fillers but many great songs.

Giving it a 5 was tempting but it’s a bit too dry.

Very influential, quite enjoyable

Very little waste. Impressive

How quickly some bands evolved successfully at the time

Very good. And Vinny Reilly’s guitar is lonely as usual

Sounds super interesting

Exciting from start to finish

Quite sweet actually

Ok

So dull, repetitive, annoying. I don’t get it.

Oasis inspired, with at least one fantastic song

Ok

Great sounds and everything

Really good

A bit whiny

Very good but lacks Kim Deal’s freshness

Probably good but I don’t like the singer’s voice.

Weird album: many failed starts. I’d love to release a version with reordered tracks.

Important for historical reasons

I don’t know

Fantastic.

Not sure

So dry

Great energy. Great songs.

Sound production is too 80s

A bit dated, but probably some good stuff.

Crazy recording.

Heaviest album ever

I’m insensitive

Seems great. She was unique. What a loss.

I guess they had nothing else to listen to at the time

I still don’t get EC

Great atmosphere/tunes

Very strong. A bit cold.

What a mess

Diverse

A bit borin

Might be worth coming back one day. Really in the middle between Africa and South America

I should come back

Sounds superb

Could be a 5?

MOR and pleasant

Some good stuff.

Fantastic

Great but the fillers are too quirky. I bet they never played them live.

Doesn’t age well

Pure

A bit dull

Ok

One of the best albums of its time

Sounds flat

Heavy

Nothing exciting

Not bad, maybe the end is a bit bland

Really not great. Anyone thinks otherwise?

Cool

Muet portent more

A symphony

Old

Ok

Too hard on the edges

Not my favourite because it’s too heavy compared eg to Astral Weeks, but still it’s full of great tunes

Bof

Classic. Strange to think that Bowie was involved, who has released Ziggy Stardust 6 months before. How did that happen?

I should come back

Annoying voice, mostly covers, commercial sound production: really not my thing.

Quite nice actually

I still need to spend more time listening to it

A cool version of the Red Hots

Sounds fun

Probably very inspirational at the time.

Interesting. I’ve known this album for 40 years. I’ve always considered it a pleasant fraud. The songs are beautifully produced and played but are not real songs. It’s as if they were made by AI. However it’s still a very enjoyable listen, so I give it a 5… oh and also for the cover and the great album ‘s name, almost as good as George Best.

Quite heavy, commercial but crazy, in a good way

Great first album with a unique style. However, I think that they refined their sound later hence the 4.

Not their best

Too beatlesesque, churclike , nasal and long.

To listen to more

I’m really enjoying Genesis more and more

If tête is something of amusing. The rest falls a little flat.

Really noce

Not one I know very well

Not a genre for me

Some of this has aged well.

Sounds good but I am still not into it after a few years

Hard to find in one piece on the various streaming services. Diverse but quite standard for the time.

Fan hard rock

Seems fine

Someone had to do it

Amazing songs, voice, charisma, everything. As often, the album is probably 15 minutes too long.

Perfect new wave album. Or is it post punk?

Wilco are unique

It’s one of these albums were the context is more important than the musuc

Not sure. Maybe a bit too hard , not bowiesque enough.

Impossibly too long

A bit too simple, too heavy

Not sure

Some great songs and a lot of noise in between.

Not sure

A bit flat?

Exceptional first record

Ok ish

Period defining

Superb sounds and melodies. I listened to the German version.

I didn’t find the catchy tunes yet

Why are most modern r&b albums so/too long?

Not sure

Pleasant but I’m still not a big fan of Partridge’s voice

I wish I understood

Fun, neat

Really not something I like. I feel that I’m watching a movie from the 50s again and again

Great transition album, from sexy punk goddess to bard/poet

Very messy, in a good fun way. Not filthy like sticky fingers. Not my favourite RS album but very enjoyable.

Brilliant

Hopefully one day I’ll be able to appreciate

Bland. But 1) one of my favourite bags in the world. 2) was the wedge which opened my life to good music

Can never be as important as blue lines, but still a very strong album

Shoegaze by Robert Fripp. Exceptional.

An album which as definitely grown on me over the years.

Boring

Great Springsteen album

Ok I’m gradually getting used to it

Some great tracks, not consistent though

Give me more listens

Too bluesy while MOR

Seems just a folk album

Better than human league

My favourite quirky album

Please stop adding the latest fad to the list

Mixed feelings but so great

Uneven

Indie music with great, innovative harmonies

Not bad, not original and doesn’t sound as sharp and fresh as when he’s with Meg.

Looking Glass actually > There She Goes

Horrible voice, sadly

Unique voice + sound , but not perfect throughout the album.

A side amazing, B side not

Think calexico or lambchop.

Sounds fun and musically interesting

Too much ambient

One of my top 5

Doesn’t feel special

Not remotely as good as older NO albums

Mellow, sexy, etc.

Still not getting the genre

Nice but no exciting

This album is definitely a prog album. It shows that the Police were a bunch of opportunists

Beautiful covers, but fairly uninteresting music

Sounds strong

Classic shoegaze. But not as noisy s it was perceived at the time

Tuneful, good harmonies, diverse enough, but what a horrible haircut

Cheesy but super tuneful

Some interesting tracks but is it really that good?

Child in time is simply stunning

More interesting than it sounds initially

Pleasant

Fun britpop albums , with 2 ripoffs

I can’t stand early rap any more

Exceptional. A joy from start to finish.

Ok but not very remarkable

Heavy but good

Superb. Refreshing at the time.

Still not impressed

Whinge

Ok but never been great

A couple of great songs

Really enjoyable

Fast fun

Interesting but too long

As cool as you may imagine

I need to know it by heart

Sounds really good

Surprisingly interesting

Heavy but quality

Too Red Hot’ish

Really annoying

Sounds interesting

Crazy, fun and relaxed

Great voice, great tunes

Great album

Still not

Great overall listen

Whiny start, great finish

Totally overrated but a couple of great songs

Fun and clever pop. A gem.

So annoying

Seems repetitive but tuneful

Heavy but I should listen to it more

Not my favourite kinks album because I find it more falsely pretentious and less tuneful than the others

Not bad

Quite diverse

Sounds great but when paying attention I thought there was not so much substance

Great album but I don’t like the voice
