4/5 I really liked this!

4/5 Really blows my mind that they were playing this stuff in the 50s. The track ’Frenzy’ must’ve inspired ’Tank’ from Cowboy Bepop.

5/5 Wow!

5/5 This was great.

4/5 Especially like the first half of the album!

3/5 Too many intermediate tracks for me.

4/5 I really liked this. Didn’t initially think I’d like this style of punk, but goes to show that you gotta give everything a chance.

2/5 This music is not my cup of tea.

Now this is soul.

3/5 Wonderful Sunday morning album.

3/5 Solid album.

1/5 Yeah, no.

2/5 Not a big fan of punk.

3/5 Some cool guitars in here.

4/5 I’ve never been keen on Beatles music, but listening through this whole album opened me up to the range they have and makes me appreciate their music a bit more. I get the hype now.

3/5 I liked it. Good blues.

4/5 Great.

3/5 Some interesting stuff in here.

4/5

4/5 Loved some of the guitar solos.

3/5 I liked some of the sounds, I imagine this is what set some of the berlin-underground-bunker vibe that would later become associated with the Matrix and other similar things.

3/5 Some cool post rock.

4/5 Some bangers & solid range.

2/5 A bit too much brit-rock without memorable tracks.

3/5 Solid, but only one banger.

4/5 Some enjoyable jazz.

4/5 Great album, very even level, a lot of ”must play” songs for a somewhat short album.

3/5 Too same-ey and mellow for my taste. Some good songs, bur ultimately not too big a fan of the sound to like a full album of it.

4/5 big fan of the flow and witty lyricism of the album. Some choruses were a little bit weak, but the instrumentals more than made up for that

4/5 I thought this was garage rock after the first track. Then I was proven wrong. Then I thought it was stadium rock. Once again I was wrong. Incredible soundscape throughout the album, always switching it up. My personal nitpick is that the same vocal type of whisper-echo song isn’t my personal favourite, but all in all, it’s one of those albums I’m happy I listened to.

4/5 I don’t know what kind of prejudices I had against the music of Grateful Dead, but whatever they were, they were proved wrong. This live performance oozes of musical talent, and beeing a big fan of instrumental tracks, the tracks on this album were a joy to listen to. With all songs being particularly long, it’s the perfect ’put on in the background for a hood mood’ album, and I’m really happy to have listened to this cool blend of rock/blues.

3,5/5 Apart from the one or two bangers, what I found especially interesting was how fun it seems like this band had, both playing and writing this album. A mix of brit-rock and reggae that works surprisingly well, combined with what I wrote above results in the biggest draw for me, which is interesting music. Probably not an album I will be listening to a bunch of times, but at least something that enriched my life by having listened to it once.

1/5 At the end of the day, none of the tracks were all that interesting.

2/5 While I didn’t find much of the sound of the album to be interesting to me, coupled with poorly aged sound quality, I can’t help but feel that this album deserves to be analyzed more in regards to the time it was released in, to better understand the background and climate these lyrics are meant to reflect. It feels, from start to finish, like a very political album.

3/5 Great "dad rock" album, first few tracks really set the mood for me, maybe something to listen to on a roadtrip when the mood is right.

4/5 I really liked the variance of the tracks and the overall sound of the album. Without knowing who influenced who, the sound reminds me of Lennon and Bowie, but still different enough that I wouldn’t say that anyone copied one or another.

2/5 One or two tracks had instrumentals that I found interesting, but overall there were too many elements that didn’t fit my tastes all that much.

4/5 Good live album. Love me some soul, and I appreciated the solos from the band.

2/5 Didn’t find this album all too memorable or interesting.

4/5 This album was funk-ay! Got the drums, the brass and the bass, what more could you ask? Even if some of the later tracks felt like they were repeating some themes and ideas from earlier in the album, the overall mix of catchy refrains and fresh instrumental sections leaves me wishing that this band had made more than one album.

2/5 While no doubt a historical and well-made fot its time, today a lot of the tracks feel a bit same-ey.

3/5 A lot of blues and proto-rock inspiration shining through. Solid, but nothing mind blowing.

3/5 Solid, nice groovy garage rock-ish type of album, but with higher production quality than your typical garage.

3/5 Strong 3 out of 5, had a good mix of elements from other genres which kept things interesting. Always a sucker for a long instrumental as the end track to really let out all the musical energy that didn’t get a chance to be expressed in the other songs.

3/5 My first Tom Waits album. I found the music interesting, and some of the tracks actually pretty good when the elements of blues and soul clearly influence the singing.

4/5 Overall good musical ability to make most tracks feel special and worthwhile to listen to.

3/5 Timeless lyrics and raw instrumental energy brings the score up.

3/5 Solid, didn’t find my interest piqued all that much though.

4/5 Generational rhymes and storytelling, but I’m happy that the dude nowadays is sober and corny instead of on drugs and horny.

3/5 Ambivalent grade. I feel some stuff is solid, after a while it gets boring, and the instrumenral tracks at the end are very hit or miss. It barely eeks out a 3.

3/5 Very solid garage rock.

5/5 Bangers and varied instrumentals, interesting and good vibes throughout.
