Really hear album. Lots of variety. Would definitely listen again

Not a fan. To much focus on social awareness and not enough on enjoyable music.

Some promising tracks, but overall not a super enjoyable listen.

Creative chord structures and instrumental parts. I know that I could find something new and surprising to hear with each new listen.

Not just one, but several classic Stevie Wonder tracks.

Surprisingly enjoyable. Undertones of future R.E.M. hit-maker sounds with hints of punk rock sensibility, especially evident in the production techniques. Much better vibe than the later, seemingly more marketable, albums that everyone is familiar with.

It's Stevie at his finest. How many samples came from this one album?

Musicianship is on point, but doesn't really do it for me.

This sounds like a parody of cliche Irish music.

A couple of classic tracks here, but I'm not sure I would revisit this album.

This is an iconic album from the standpoint of women in punk music. I really enjoy the album, and would rate it higher if every song didn't sound so similar.

This album is weird for the sake of being weird. The first 23 minute long track is strange enough, but eventually you just feel like this album is the soundtrack to an episode of Yo Gabba Gabba.

Classic rap from this era.

Not my favorite Stevie Wonder album.

What a great album! This group should be better known.

Great classic album. Bowie just isn't my thing.

This is clearly a pretty important transition point from early R.E.M. to 90s radio friendly R.E.M. Good for what it is, but it's no "Murmur."

Every Peter Gabriel song sounds the same to me.

There's something for everyone here. Radio friendly poppy hooks interspersed with traditional hip hop bravado and social commentary. Great top to bottom.

Some if the best Stevie Wonder.

Mostly a way to show off good guitar technique, at the expense of musicality and feeling.

Not my favorite David Bowie. Lackluster at best.

The music is almost as weird as the album cover.

What a cool album! This was a solid 3 for me until the last few tracks. "New York, I Love You" is a gem!

An all time iconic voice!

Not my favorite Tribe album.

4 of the most iconic rock songs all time on one album!

Doesn't float my boat in general, and is way too repetitive.

Good album, I'm just not a Lou Reed fan.

I mean...well done, but...

So much potential, but ultimately disappointing

I just wanted this lady to stop yelling at me

Great album, but not the best of Rush, and Neil Peart isn't Neil Peart yet.

There's some talent and creativity here, but I can't get over the tone quality and vibrato.

Masterpiece

I was actually angry that I had to listen to this album.

Terrible sound quality
