Sara and Tusk - two of my favorite songs. Otherwise, not much else.

Slightly before my time, so had never heard of them. After two songs, I was ready to listen no longer, but then the next few songs blew me away, and now I've got to look into this band, as well as Buzzcocks.

Literally shocked at how good I thought this was. I remember this group from the late 70s/early 80s, and some relatively catchy weird tunes, but could never get past the weirdness of them. I really enjoyed listening to this and now have to listen to more of their albums.

South California Purples, I'm A Man

Big fan of Bowie, but never really liked this, and obviously just brings sadness as he died soon after it was released. 2.5 stars, but rounded up.

Other than 'Where It's At', I'm not a big fan

Enjoyable, easy to listen to, and a couple of catchy tunes, but nothing that blows me away. 3.5 stars.

Listened to this a lot in my teen years, and still one of my favorites from U2.

Can I give it a zero

Hotel California is my #1 all-time song. The rest of the album is okay. I feel like it should be better.

Great song in 'Shout', and 'Head Over Heels' is a catchy listenable tune. Didn't like 'Everybody Wants to Rule the World' when it was first out, but appreciate it much more these days, and especially as it's an iconic 80s song now that accompanies fun online retro videos/memes.

Sounds like Phish (says the person who's heard 2 or 3 Phish songs). Some catchy tunes. Back at the Farm has a catchy start but doesn't progress into the song I hope for. 2.75 stars rounded up.

Usually depends on my mood what I think of this music. Last night I'd have given 2.5 stars, today it's closer to 4 (better mood, less tired). Gonna give it 4, because if I heard this in a club, I'd be blown away by it.

Some light block rockin' beats....listenable, but nothing I added to my 'Liked' playlist.

A few 2-star reviews sum up my feelings for this. It's not bad, it's just not my thing.

Great tunes, some are way too short.

Some great hits - El Condor Pasa, Cecilia, The Boxer, as well as the title track. Give it a 4 because everything else is meh.

Chaotic jazz.....1.5

Wading up to the swim-up bar in Cancun to get my 6th Negra Modelo of the morning, this is what's playing.......probably.

Maybe a hair below 4, but some good funky grooves on this album.

Probably 3.5 - lots of very good songs, Send My Love being my favorite.

Never really listened to them too much, but have enjoyed a few of the Punk era albums I've had. This doesn't hold up to them. Prefer PIL, Iggy, or The Fall.

Definitely late 80s European pop/rock sound. Similar to White Lies and Silversun Pickups. Probably give it a 3.5 overall - enjoyed all the songs, and may give it another listen. Magick was a standout.

Outside of Yellow and Trouble, I can't say I liked any of the other songs. Nowhere near as good as 'Rush of Blood to the Head' or 'X&Y'.

Didn't hate this, but also didn't like it. 1.5 stars. I know it's critically acclaimed and all that, but I'm not sure why.

Sounded like the same song over and over. Can't understand why this should be listened to, other than as a warning of how bad R&B can be. Utter rubbish.

Better than expected. Not much of a metal fan, other than the popular mainstream stuff - Iron Man, Paranoid, and War Pigs - but I found a couple of other songs on here that I enjoyed and nothing was unlistenable. 3.25

Never really liked Rush much, but have heard of this album, and after listening to it, my feelings haven't changed. Part of the opening 20+minute was pretty good towards the end, but the rest of the album was much as I expected. I don't like Geddy Lee's voice, and the music seems light - similar to some Police music with the drums. That being said, both Rush and Police drummers are just magnificent drummers. I like Geddy Lee - he is an incredibly interesting person too, which I found out years ago when listening to him discussing baseball and other stuff during an interview. And I appreciate their immense talent. So 2.75 stars rounded up.

Lost in Music is one of my fave songs of the Disco/70s era. We Are Family and He's the Greatest Dancer are also noteworthy songs from then. Very listenable album.

I dunno - just not my thing.

Weird - big fan of their early stuff, but this is a bit different.

See all other 1 and 2 star reviews to sum up how I felt about it. It wasn't unlistenable, but I did FFW through a couple towards the end, hoping for something that I would enjoy. Really thought it was rubbish though. 1.5 stars

Really enjoyed 'Boxcars' - listened to it about 4 times, but rest of the album is your run of the mill honkytonk. 2.5 stars.

Wow - never listened to the complete album, just 'My Name Is'. 25 years later I guess it isn't that shocking compared to other stuff out there....but I guess I was still shocked at some of the lyrics. 2.5

Never listened to much Supertramp outside of their hits, which I've always really liked, esp the ones from Breakfast in America. After listening to this album on the drive in this morning, I'm now halfway through their whole catalogue at the office.

I've liked some punk-era music enough to look into more of it, esp. PIL and The Fall, but this isn't on par with them.

Wasn't a fan of first couple of songs, but kept listening and got better and better. I remember them from mid-90s, but never got into them too much. Gonna go search for more of their stuff. 3.5

First time through I'd have given it 2.25, another listen and a few of the tunes started to grow on me. Still reminds me of early New Order and Book of Love from the 80s - a bit light. 2.75

Closer to 2.5 for me. Never really liked their sound.

Some stand out Beach Boys songs, Wouldn't It Be Nice and God Only Knows esp, as well as Sloop John B, and a couple of others.

Some great stuff, some weird stuff. While My Guitar Gently Weeps, Don't Pass Me By, and Happiness Is A Warm Gun are two standouts. Also enjoy Rocky Raccoon. Listened to this a lot my senior year of high school (1988).

Running Up That Hill will forever remind me of moving back to England in early August 1985. My family was walking around Banbury, looking in the real estate shop windows, and I heard it on the radio as a new release that week. Loved it from that moment on. Hounds of Love and Cloudbusting are also solid hits.

Nothing in this album stood out. Didn't go back to any song to give it another go.

Smooth comfortable background music at the cocktail bar, and something to get up and samba to. The Girl from Ipanema is a classic

Listenable - a couple of standouts. An old work colleague said this was her favorite band, and I didn't know much about their early stuff other than 'Lola', but 'Come Dancing' was a fave of mine in 1983. They seemed like a fun band.

Brings me back to spring 1986, staying at a friends house the night before our morning soccer match (Croughton v Woodbridge) - woke up to this album blasting on his stereo. Scored the only goal in our 1-0 win.

Interesting - raw unpolished punk. Nothing I'd listen to again, but I've heard worse stuff.

I either love his songs or can't stand them, usually. Most of these I couldn't stand. About 2.5 rounded up.

It was fine.

Can't add much to what has already been said about this album.

Always been a fan of 'First of the Gang to Die', but never listened to much Smiths or Morrissey. However, found a couple of other gems in this album. Very impressed.

Some good stuff - not a huge fan of this album, but contains 'There There', one of my top 10-20 songs of all time.

When Doves Cry and Purple Rain are two of my fave songs from the 80s. The Beautiful Ones and Lets Go Crazy are also quality tunes.

Not my thing - though Breaking the Law was good.
