Not much a of a Dylan fan. Definitely not a folk fan. Subjectively not for me.
Pleasant mixing.
Meet me in the Morning stands out as most enjoyable to me. I really dig the groove of the instrumentals.
Idiot Wind lyrics are quite amusing.
Incredible vocals.
Damn clean production.
Fantastic cover of Hallelujah.
Personal stand-out track: Love, You should've come over.
Expertly mixed and produced, incredible talent. Can easily see why this album has the status it does.
Iconic album.
Safe to say I've heard most of these tracks before.
A lot of it is a bit outside of what I would normally listen too, but still not a bad album by any stretch.
Honey is still my favorite track.
Definitely follow the concept of the album getting less and less defined as the track-list progresses
Intro to Everloving made me think my headphones had broken suddenly lol
Oh, it's THIS guy.
I mean sure, it's pretty fun. Without You is iconic and deserves the praise.
Jump Into The Fire was a standout track, funky groove and great instrumentals.
Subjectively not that enjoyable for me, I don't know what it is too specifically, but something about the mixing leaves much to be desired.
I'm a bit familiar with the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Maps is one of my all-time favourite songs.
Was a big fan when of Heads Will Roll when it first hit the radio, but this is the first time I actually listened to the whole album.
Pretty enjoyable, very balanced sound, instrumentals are clean.
I'm sure Karen O isn't the right sound for everyone, but I really enjoy her unique vocals.
Dull Life is a standout for me, definitely surprised I hadn't heard it before.
Can't remember the last time I actually listened to S&G outside of the samples included in Girltalk's mixes.
Cecilia stands out
I don't really enjoy this to be honest, but it's fine I guess.

Bloody Well Right is my favorite Supertramp tune.
But it would seem it starts and ends there. I was aware of Dreamer growing up, but it wasn't for me. Much like the rest of this album. Most of the prog style just isn't my thing.

CCR has such a great sound, fun grooves, powerful vocals.
Lot's of great music on this album, Bad Moon Rising is a favorite of mine.
Literally never heard of the band. True blind (or do I mean deaf?) listen.
Overall I really dig the instrumental arrangements. Lot's of creative variety in sounds.
The vocals are absolutely not my thing, I know it's an artistic choice but most of it is like riding the line between projected singing and ...talking?
This choice absolutely buries the rest of the otherwise enjoyable music.
This album wasn't even that long in runtime, but boy did it FEEL longer.
Not for me. Was going to rate it a 1 but the extended arrangement in Giant did some heavy lifting to carry it to 2
I had an ironic t-shirt in my high school days that said "Disco sucks" on it. But truth be told I haven't actually listened to much of it aside from the staples of those older folks waxing nostalgia.
I can't hate on that bass line in Good Times. But I will say that song could probably be about 2 minutes shorter. Still a great track and obviously defining of the era, based on how much I've heard it in my life being born well after peak disco era.
Mostly just found myself not interested in listening, another dud to me.
It's Zeppelin. what more can I really say?
Lots of great tracks on here, personal favourites:
In My Time of Dying, House of the Holy, Trampled Under Foot, Kashmir, The Wanton Song.
I listened to the remaster, so I'm not sure if it's present on the OG release, but I enjoyed the little quick banter bits they included from the studio recordings that would otherwise simply cut out. Plant singing "cough" at the end of In My Time of Dying is great for a laugh.
Easy 5 Stars.
The definitive Metallica album.
Best sound, Best songs, Best mixing.
Another easy 5 stars.
I tried to give it a fair shake.
This was bad.
Lot's of fun things going on in the backing tracks, Q's flow is pleasant.
Some samples or scratch work came across harsh, but only a few instances.
Funky. Chill. Mid.

This was a chore to listen to.
At times reminded me of like The Shins smashed with The Gorrilaz.
Probably wouldn't listen again.
I'm not of the era, but I do remember having an old tune lovin classmate in high school claim "Riders on the storm will change your life"
I didn't get it then, I still don't get it now. I get the feeling that The Doors and Jim Morrison are sorta over hyped a bit?
It's blues rock with some playful mixing, not some life defining record in my opinion.
It's not bad, a bit slow for my tastes.
I don't usually listen to much Jazz, but I appreciate it.
I am absolutely blown away by the quality of this recording. I don't think I have ever heard a live recording with this much detail and clarity, kind of blown away this is from 1961.
The trio are very talented, very obvious they are masters of the craft of jazz. The grooves on the bass are spectacular. Percussion is tight, and not overly flashy. Evans is a treat on the keys, knowing full well when to step back and let LaFaro solo.
There were times I was wondering who was in my house, as I kept hearing chit chat or the clink of a glass. It was all from this record. Quite the immersive experience if you ask me.
Very enjoyable listening, I see no reason why this shouldn't be 5 stars.
Musician is talented, no denying that.
Not my type of music, nothing really stuck out for me either.
Fun album, funky feel.
My only gripe is some of the distortion used is a bit overbearing at points.
Overall very enjoyable though.
This will be the first album since I started 1001AG that I will unfortunately not finish.
Actually irritating to listen to.
Hard pass.
Dylan still isn't for me, but I found his album a lot more listenable than Blood On The Tracks.
I have a lot of nostalgia for Rainy Day Women #12 & 35, heard that track a lot growing up.
Not bad, still not really something I would listen to regularly.
Great music, didn't love the channel mixing.
Fun recording.
Dumb that they censored parts of it.
Pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed this.
Great drive throughout the album, vocalist very unique.
Would listen to again!
Wanted to like this, but something about it couldn't keep my attention.
I'll likely give it another fair shake again and some point.
I'm not the most familiar with Wonder, but enjoy a couple of his bangers.
Some of this was a little slow for me, but overall definitely an enjoyable listening experience. Some very creative production and sounds.
Closing track really brought the rating up for me.
Powerful voice.
Surprisingly well recorded and mixed.
I'm floored how much I enjoyed this, actually incredible.
Mid.
Nice groove on Solidify.
One of my favourites.
Whole album is just fun as hell.
