Dolly PartonThis album was way better than what I was expecting. Dolly’s voice is great and the songs are great stories.

Super fun listen!!
I knew the hits on this album. Nothing else was a standout. Very folksy stuff. I can see how the chieftains thing happened in the 90s now.

It’s such a fun album. Some songs are upbeat. Some are dark. Very clever. Great sample choices.
This album is like the Beatles making a soundtrack for a Tarentino movie. At first I didn’t like it at all. The more I listen the more I dig it. Is that a theremin? Or is it the weird thing the MC 505 groove box could do?(track is bad behavior)
I love going into these albums blind. I had no idea what to expect. The first track sounds like electro Bob Marley. I love the bass lines on this album. The sounds range from Beatles strings to the grit of bands like the stooges and MC5. Red Rolled and Seen gives me a Tom Waits “earth died screaming” vibe. The groove on this track is incredible
I love the raspy vocals. Almost a Pougues “love you til the end” vibe. 2nd track a real U2 meets the chieftains vibe. I wonder if this album had any influence on Flogging Molly?
I knew “Everyday People”. I don’t know if it’s just the sound quality, but this album is not grabbing me. Ok. The “sex machine” jam has my attention. I’m digging this.
I’ve never understood the hype around The Clash. I’ve never found them very “punk”. The opening track “Janie Jones” I really liked. Listened to the whole thing. I still don’t get the hype. They have the look and imagery, but nothing in the music spoke to me at all.
I’m so over this band. Trying to give a listen, but just tired of this sound. It was cool at the time. “Im about to break” that’s how I feel. 😂 This album is just overplayed and sounds cliche. I’m so glad that is over
Holy crap! “Soul Machine” just grabs you from the start. This album is just groove start to finish. I love the relaxed party vibe.
This album just feels like a Sunday morning. I miss records with this much clarity on the instruments. This is a start to finish album. Fantastic to the end.
Opening track is better than I was expecting. “Rumor has it”, great voice. Almost like old Motown. The opening tracks were great. Now in the middle they all sound the same. Slow piano ballad
I love Thunder road. I didn’t know 10th ave freeze out was on this record. This album just has a fun, night out, sing along vibe. “She’s the one” is a great song. Love this intro. This album went by way too fast. I really enjoyed it. Jungleland is a great closer.
I’m on track three and it’s good. But nothing is grabbing me. It’s not a memorable experience so far. I’m diving the synth on “the old castle”. Now that I am reading the background this is making more sense. Almost a precursor to TSO
I’m a big fan of Flogging Molly so I’m surprised this has escaped me for so long. I love Shane’s voice. All these songs are right up my alley. This album is just a fun time.
I went in expecting to hate this and this first track is fantastic. Kim and cookie did nothing for me.
It’s not his best. There are good songs. I don’t get the hype.
How this band escaped me I will never know. The sound of this album is still fresh after 50 years.
It’s a good album. I feel like this is every classic I have ever heard by Van Morrison.
Just a good record. Nothing standing out. Just a groove.
“The Louvre” is a fantastic song. Super cut and liability really grab me.
Tears of rage reminds me of “take a load off Fanny”. “In a station”, it has the same “take a load off…” groove. Caledonia mission. This album is just groove. And here is “the weight”. How did one band make an album this good? This album is fantastic
“Hair of the dog” sounds like a devo song. This is trippy weird record. Kick in the eye 2 is a killer bass line. This is a very good album. So far “mask” is my favorite. Really good record.
I feel like this is an album where I will know the songs abut not know I had heard them before. I’m really enjoying this record. Now I’m wishing I would have seen them live.
This is not The Bee Gees I knew as a kid. This is a good start. Could be my mood today but this just sounds like “the 60s” and nothing jumps out. Nothing remarkable to me so far. Just started Black Diamond. Marley purt Drive is grabbing me. This one I like. This album goes in and out of genius. Lamplight is a great tune. Sound of love. Great song. This album really finds its stride half way through. “I laugh in your face is a great song”. For real. How does this keep getting better? Never say never again. What a hook. I started out not liking this album and by the end I loved it.
Never knew what to expect from this band. I’m digging this album though.
I’m aware of the specials, but I’m not sure if I’ve ever listed to an album. Ok. Half way through. I do t get the hype. It’s good. But nothing is really jumping out to me. And now “too hot” is on and I’m changing my mind.
I had heard this name. Thought it was a joke or made up. This album is great. It’s the perfect album for me this morning.
I have never heard of this ever. Opening track is fantastic!! This album is fantastic. I love the sounds and the openness of it all.
Opener sounds like a demo for “America Girl”. 2nd tack is breakdown. What a groove. Home town blues is a great track. This is a fatatstic album.
It’s good. I don’t get the hype on this guy.
Sound wise I already dig this opening track. I don’t know what it is about this album. Maybe the vocals? The strings? It’s just a calming sound. Right from the start “can I get a witness” is great.
This sounds like the 90s
Sure shot is sure a great opener. This album is so great!! I don’t think I’ve ever listened to this entire album and it is just gold. This album is fantastic from start to finish

It starts with noise. That threw me off and I like. The song gentlemen has a great groove. Really digging this record. Great grooves. Great song writing

Ok, so this is good. But it all sounds the same.
This album was everywhere when I was kid. I know three songs for sure. Looking forward to finally hearing the rest. On down bound train. This is a good album but it sounds very “80s”. Not all of it. But just some of the synth choices. No surrender is a fantastic song. I think the crpytkeeper 5 covered this and I had no idea it was a cover. And now Bobby Jean. These are great tracks and they sound timeless. On “I’m going down”. What an amazing album this is.
This album really surprised me. I didn’t know what to expect and this is some great song writing and performances.
I know this record inside and out. It’s fantastic
I know the hit from this record. “Take me out”. I think I thought this modest mouse. And now that I have heard the hit. Every song after sounds like the hit. Really digging “this fire”. This album reminds me of the British new wave punk stuff in the 80s. Stripped back, more refined and juts rock and roll.
I know everyone was enamored with Bowie in the 70s and this was his signature/most iconic look. But so far I don’t see the hype. Drive-in Saturday is a good track. I don’t get the hype.
Right off the bat the opener “and it stoned me” grabbed me. This is catchy. Skipped moondance. Great tune. I’ve heard it enough. Crazy love is a great tune. This record is just great some after great song. Skipped mystic because like moondance I’ve heard it enough. This album is so good I can’t believe I have not listened to it before. Fantastic record
Not sure why the recorded tuning their guitars at the beginning but this is picking up. St. Stephen is my kinda jam. Loving this track The Eleven is great too. Turn on your love light rocks. I love this tune. Death don’t have no mercy is great. The start of this album was rough. The rest is great. Tracks one and seven had to be an influence on Gregg Ginn
I know the hits. I will probably skip those to listen to the rest of the record. Listening to I need you tonight. This is very 80s production wise. But you still here the Texas blues rock in the voice. Really digging “I got the six”. Bad girl is a great track. I’m glad I finally listened to this album.
This is a good album. There is a nuance to Jack’s playing. Gentle and unhinged at the same time. “I just don’t know what to do with myself” is my favorite so far. This album gets better the further you go. Ball and biscuit is my favorite track so far. Hypnotize is great
This opening track is fantastic and not at all what I was expecting. This album is very good.
Aware of this band, excited to listen to this album. Second track “there’s always tomorrow” hands a great groove. Good songs. Nothing jumped out at me here. I can see why they were popular but also not talked about like other bands from their era.
Never listened to this album. Opening track is great. Great album. Super solid songs.
I didn’t get Black Sabbath until I looked at the billboard charts and saw what was popular when they started. That’s when I really understood how new they were. The miss albums like this. A collection of songs that flow and tell a story.
I know nothing of this artist. Really digging this first track. I’m really enjoying this album. Firewater has a great groove. “Zumm Zumm” sounds like a video game. Skies over Cairo was one of my favorites from this album. I really enjoyed this album.
This is a band I know by name only. Opening track is great! I’m looking forward to this journey. I would have probably hated this album in the 90’s but I love it now. “The creep out” is a great song. This is a great album.
Opening track is great! I can’t believe I’ve never listened to this album before. I knew of the wait because of Metallica. I like the original better. This is a great record. I wish I had heard this sooner. I really like this record.
So glad to be listening to this album. Opening track is good. Andy’s chest is my kind of jam. Perfect day is such a great track. Hanging round is another great track. What a record this is. This album is just great. So glad I finally listened to it.
As the years go by I feel that Cream and Eric Clapton are overrated. I’m looking forward to giving another listen. “World of pain” came on and I thought my playlist switched. I really like this track. Now Blue condition is on. This album is better than the “hits”. This album feels “formulaic”. I almost want someone to play me a random 60s play list and see if I can pick out Cream before the vocals come on. “Mother’s lament” feels like Monty Python. 🤣
Never heard of this band before. I really like it so far. Just on the opening track. “Mushroom” has a great groove. I had no idea music like this existed this early. This is similar to the industrial music of the 90s. The groove on the end of “Peking o” is a great groove. This album does not even feel dated. Ok, some of the guitar sounds are dated. But it feels very relevant today.
Pleasuredome is a great pop track. War? Born to run? These are great spins on these tracks. What a great band. This was a really fun album. Great songs. Good for a party
No idea who this is. Love the opening track. 2nd track. This album is great. Really enjoyed this record!!
So excited to get a Jazz album. I’ve heard this name but never listened to them. Bass solo on “my man’s gone now” is great. This is mellower than I feel today. I need to make a list of albums like this for Sunday mornings.
Another artist I have never heard of. This album is great. Great jazz record. I really enjoyed the organ playing.
This is already weird. 🤣track three has my attention. The rest so far sounds like the weird stuff in “yes man”. This feels like it should be a musical of some sort. I might enjoy this more if there were visuals. There is some good stuff on here. I think I can give this a three. Oddly I like the German lyrics better than English. Something about the way those melodies flow. This was way better than I expected it to be. It took me on a journey.
Apparently I’m in the right mood for this. I’m really digging this so far. Keep on the sunny side is not resonating with me. Her voice just sounds off. End of the world was great. This version of I saw the light is amazing. This is a great album and a LOT of music.
Right off the bat I like “song of love”. This is so good and so eclectic.
The opening track “chameleon” is great!this is a great record and I wish I would have discovered it sooner.
I love how eclectic and manic these tracks are. This album is so heavy and raw.
First track sounds like it out of the 70s. I really like it. Ok. This is wild. It’s like someone wanted to go back and make the 70s record they always wanted to hear. This is a great blend of hip-hop and 70s disco and soul. I love this record.
