Better than expected. I don’t know Beck very well, as I mostly hear his more popular songs through the radio. However, I was pleasantly surprised. I enjoyed how certain songs had a nice acoustic feel and sound, yet he maintained his alternative style through certain songs like “Sunday Sun”.
Very good, Sinatra is amazing love his music. However, was not in the mood to listen to this album, therefore my low rating.
I was expecting this album to be completely different, however I have been pleasantly surprised. I’ve been listening to this while at the gym, and it has matches the vibe very well. Enjoying this album, and love something new that I typically don’t listen to!
Simply not my style.
Personally, I have a hard time listening to music in alternative languages simply because I feel like I need to understand the lyrics to truly feel, and enjoy a song. However, I really enjoyed the beats, and would not put down the album in any means.
Hendrix was truly a master of the guitar. Forgot how long Voodoo Child was (15 minutes!) Never knew that "All Along the Watchtower" was a cover of Bob Dylan's song.
Not knowing the band and seeing the cover, I initially assumed that this album would be folk or country (neither of which I am too interested in). However, seeing that this came out in the '80s, I should've known better. I liked the first song, "Come to My Aid" because, with my previous assumptions, it worked as a great shocker. Honestly, I questioned listening to the remastered songs, but did it anyway since I felt like the album would've been incomplete otherwise. Maybe I had been too distracted during these moments, but I of course didn't focus on the major differences other than the fact that the remasters were noticeably longer. The point is, I truly couldn't notice an important addition that deemed additional minutes necessary. Although, I could contradict that given that I truthfully enjoyed the additional four minutes on the remasted version of "Money's Too Tight (To Mention)". I felt like the instrumentals were very nice. 3 stars
