More blues influence than I expected. Very folksy at times.
Not a fan. Jazz incorporations don't make sense to me. Too experimental. Too electronica. Not structured enough. Just ... don't want to hear it again.
Lots of songs I'm familiar with, but it's not singing to me. I actually prefer the covers of songs like Smooth Criminal and Man in the Mirror than the originals on this LP.
Boring. Repetitive. Whiny.
Caribbean afro pop meets Paul Simon. Most songs are twice as long as they need to be, and the music could, for the most part, just be put on a loop. The singer is quite talented. Otherwise, not something I'd ever want to listen to again.
More musical than I expected out of a rap album, so that was a nice surprise. Not my style of music, but I didn't outright dislike it.
What is the obsession with Iron Man / Tony Stark? I think I heard at least ten references on this album.
This album did not age well for me.
Boring. Depressing. Uneven vocals. Just not my thing.
Bland, boring, and unremarkable. I don't get why this album was made. I love strings, but they did nothing for me here.
What on God's green earth am I listening to? This is horrible and nonsensical and artistically worthless in my view. It's like a bunch of strung-out ferrets invaded a recording studio and proceeded to muck around with unknown gadgets to make random noise. (Apologies to ferrets, as this is not intended to offend you.) What a waste of my time. Why is this drivel a part of a list like this?
Only four songs on Spotify.
I like the sound, but it all merged into one-note-ness for me.
Interesting, but nothing really grabbed my attention.
This album made no sense to me, and quite frankly I am flabbergasted that it's included on this list. It's a 100% miss for me.
Full of dissonance. Difficult to comprehend.
How is this a top 1000? I get it's a good bye album, but that should have no bearing on placement on this list. Definitely a miss for me.
Unimpressed. Sounded like looped background music. Maybe the album was influential in its time, but it has no influence on me.
30 years ago thos was a high 4 or a 5. On a re-listen, it's a solid 3+. It's solid, but it hasn't aged well for me.
Such a good album. Brings back memories and reminds me how talented PF is.
Ugh. Why?
Some classic songs. Some interesting songs. Some stupid songs.
WTF is this? And how was this even remotely considered to be a candidate for this list? Noise, unintelligible chaos, and so many puerile lyrics. I hear blues influences for sure, and I certainly hear explosions. But this will be the first and last time I listen to John Spencer's Blues Explosion. Just ... no thank you.
Such an influential classic. For me it holds up very well to a re-listen.
Discount Beastie Boys with discounted value. Not my jam, and I don't get how this belongs in a list like this.
