All Ratings (937)

Jazzy, rhythmic, intense. Lyrically political and anti-government.

A gritty historical mutual love fest between Cash and the inmates. A treasure trove of prison-themed songs.

Danceable with slick beats. Sweet but not dynamic vocals.

A fresh and rhythmic joy ride. Sensational.

A prolific and ferociously catchy lineup of songs.

It has stood the test of time. Every member of the band shines. Kaukonen masterly weaves in psychedelia, hard rock, and folk.

Deep Purple: the band Spinal Tap aspired to be.

Many catchy melodies that surround somber themes. It lacks some punch but delivers depth and authenticity.

Bluesy, eerie, with a dash of psychedelia. The ideal twilight zone.

3/5 Now don’t be sad, ‘cause 3 out of 5 ain’t bad.

Oar? More like B-oar.

About as bad as it gets.

One of the classic LPs, Duane’s guitar evokes joy and longing. Clapton passionately captures love’s stormy journey. Clapton’s and Whitlock’s songwriting is soulful and heartfelt.
