Headquarters
The MonkeesReminds me of early Beatles, but less over played.
Reminds me of early Beatles, but less over played.
Hokey, but not in a charming way.
Sounds like a parody of Rock n Roll. Being catchy and commercially successful is great, but it doesn't make the music great.
First song was great. The rest were kinda boring
Immaculate vibes
Utterly forgettable. I listened through this album twice and I can't recall a single line or melody.
Reminds me of early Beatles, but less over played.
The only good thing I can say about this album is that it would be very easy to sing in karaoke since the vocal range is so narrow.
Just a solid R&B album. Not much else to say
The songs are good and the musicians are clearly excellent, but live albums are not my thing
Painfully boring. Sounds like Duran Duran at 0.5x speed
Enjoyable. All the songs are about twice as long as they need to be, but that's normal for the time.
Has some excellent moments, but overall is long and meandering. Several times while listening to this album, I forgot I was listening to music
Immaculate vibes
Not really my thing, but I always appreciate when an artist commits to the bit
All their songs sound the same, but luckily I really enjoy that sound
It's fine
It seems like they had fun making this album
This album didn't make me feel anything
It's rare to find an album that is credited with popularizing a genre, that also holds up well to modern examples of the genre
This is reggae. I enjoy reggae
The first song is pretty good. The rest are a bit overwrought.
This album was hit or miss for me. Some songs I couldn't stand, and some will be in my regular rotation for a long time. Overall I'm glad I listened to this album.
I enjoyed the sound. Nothing special though.
Sounds like if Rage Against the Machine got sent to Lake Laogai
I have nothing positive or negative to say about this album.
This album has some great moments, but overall felt disjointed and overstayed its welcome
I enjoyed it, but I can't think of a reason why it belongs on this list over every other 80's pop album.
I admire the dedication to the bit, but the novelty wore off very quickly.
This album goes crazy. Not a single miss.
I feel like I am missing some key element to enjoying this album, like listening to the soundtrack of a musical I haven't seen.
I found myself waiting for this one to be over.
Live music > recorded music. Recorded albums > live albums.
I really wanted to enjoy this album, but I just didn't.
Boring vocals over repetitive instrumentals
This felt like two different albums. Both could be great in their own right, but together they felt somewhat unfocused.
Manages to be mellow without being boring
The singles on this album are really fun and iconic. The rest of the songs are just meh.
It's one of the most influential jazz albums of all time, it's one of the most influential jazz albums of all time, it's one of the most influential jazz albums of all time. ...I don't like it :(
It feels like they had a really good time recording this album, and that vibe is infectious.
It sounds alright, but is utterly forgettable.
This is my 54th album, 23 of which are from the 70's. A Night at the Opera is like a breath of fresh air. It's so unique from anything else I've heard from the era. I don't think I will listen to this album on a regular basis, but I have to give Queen full credit for creativity and novelty. Also for Bohemian Rhapsody.
I'm glad to see some ambient electronic music on this list. It's nothing mind-blowing, but gets extra points for being one of the only experimental albums I've heard that still holds up after 30 years.
Technically solid, but extremely forgettable. I accidentally turned shuffle on halfway through the album and never realized that songs were repeating.
According to Wikipedia, this album was critically acclaimed. I'm not sure why. It's alright, but nothing about it moves me physically or emotionally.
50% iconic and timeless songs, 50% random nonsense
Technically, Hot Rats is very impressive. The audio fidelity is unmatched by anything I've heard from its time. If you told me it was released yesterday, I would believe you. Musically there were some great moments as well, but overall it was tough to listen to. I get that it's experimental, but I don't see what useful findings they made, if any.
I usually don't like live albums, but this is an exception because of its age and because the commentaries between songs provide useful information and context. I usually don't like jazz albums because they tend to be long and meandering. This is certainly long, but it manages to avoid feeling meandering.
If you're going to make an album that's over an hour long, you need to be a lot more interesting and dynamic than this.
They had one cool hook on one of their songs.
Hokey, but not in a charming way.
I can hear this being played on a crackly record in a saloon.
More of the annoying self-indulgent British \"experimental\" pop that plagues this list, although this one is a lot more tolerable than most.
I really liked it, but why are some of the songs on here three times?
I really like the beats. Very unique and intriguing without being grating. Almost sounds like an early predecessor to breakcore. They do a good job of making each track sound unique. I could do without all the bonus tracks, but overall it was very enjoyable. It feels ripe for a vaporwave remix.
There are plenty of good singers with a narrow vocal range, but for some reason Bob Dylan just shouts whenever a note gets too high for him. The result is very jarring and frustrating to sing along with. I liked the harmonica parts though.
11 minutes is too long for a song with the exact same melodic and rhythmic structure throughout.
It's crazy how many iconic songs are on this album. I guess they had to sprinkle in a few lengthy meandering songs to even it out.
It's alright, but pretty much any given Gorillaz album is more dynamic and interesting.
This is one of those albums that was included because it was groundbreaking, rather than because it was successful or long-lived. I didn't particularly enjoy it, but it's a lot more tolerable than most of the \"ahead of its time\" picks I've encountered so far.
