Harvest
Neil YoungOk ok, I get it! I knew more songs than I thought I would. This album feels like a National Park road trip!
Ok ok, I get it! I knew more songs than I thought I would. This album feels like a National Park road trip!
I thought ok Joni Mitchell, cool! Not cool. Total opposite of cool actually.
Knocking a star off because halfway through Gumbo Variations I was feeling very jam band-ish. That being said, I like the music! Have never listened to Frank Zappa. I understand why he is a favorite and probably inspiration to Trey Anastasio. I liked Son of Mr. Green Genes best, Little Unbrellas least.
Ok this is something I like about this project, I know a few of these songs but never bought or listened to Teenage Fanclub or this album. I think I always thought they were boring. So I don’t know if it’s nostalgia from this type of music being right in my wheelhouse, but I’m loving this album. On my second listen through, and will add to the rotation. I the end I listened to it three times through, will give it a five!
Great album. I had not listened to this all the way through in quite some time! It’s really good, cohesive. Of course my favorites are Keep the Car Running and No cars Go.
Love this album, of course. A classic!
Classic, solid album.
Great, classic album!!! Haven’t actually listened to this album in its entirety.
Great, classic album!!! Haven’t listened in total in a long time.
Good album with a couple of GREAT songs.
Will add this to the rotation. Had never listened to this album!
Again, never listened to this album! Very solid!
Classic, and listened to it many times at the time.
OK let me preface this by saying I’m not an expert. I liked it, but it’s not like full-blown Afrobeats or bossa nova, a little bit in the middle.
Maybe even a five…really happy to be introduced to this artist!
Give me q-tip or tribe any day!!
Better than I thought. Not sure how often I would stop and listen in a rotation.
Hmmm feel like this is a 3.5!! Had never heard any of these but generally liked it.
It’s the Beatles, but hadn’t heard this album before (their second). Quite a few covers, and for me rather meh.
I liked it I’ve never heard it or them really. Would listen again.
They are classic but I had never listened. I liked it, but this album wasn’t on Spotify so had to listen to parts of it on Pandora.
Classic for me. Loved the greatest hits as a kid but listening to it now is a little more tedious when going beyond the hits.
Didn’t mind Crowded House in the 80s. But this album was boring and I don’t think I’ll find myself going back to it at all.
Classic. Hadn’t listened to this album all the way through in several years. Very enjoyable.
Had to put aside my bias (that I don’t like Aerosmith) and I didn’t hate listening to this. Of course I could sing along with three or so songs but found that I didn’t mind listening to the whole album.
Need a half star here (3.5). I’m not new to Jesus and Mary Chain but had never fully listened to this album. Definitely solid!
Loved it!! I knew Fisherman’s blues of course but it was a great listen all the way through. Almost a five…
Has a couple of my favorite Beastie Boys songs, including my all time favorite Get it Together!! That being said, I think it’s slightly too long and I usually skip the instrumental songs when they pop up in my playlist. Therefore I’m leaning four instead of five.
Banger! Never listened to the entire album but it’s great!
Didn’t mind this at all. The sounds varied between folk and psychedelic. A little long but I’m putting it into my 1001 albums playlist!
Classic album, but listening all the way through again realized how many songs I tune out or just skipped through back in the day. I think the first half is great and then ends up sounding very same-y.
Could be 2.5. I’ve heard so much about Nick Cave over the years but never really listened. There are some good aspects but generally I find it boring and too close to what sounds like folk or American South/gospel to me. Favorite song: There she goes, my beauty
Oooooooh laaalaaaa!! Love this, have never heard of it! Parts of this don’t sound as far back as 1991, others sound like Eric B and Rakim. His flows are so smooth although I don’t know what he’s saying.
Ok this is something I like about this project, I know a few of these songs but never bought or listened to Teenage Fanclub or this album. I think I always thought they were boring. So I don’t know if it’s nostalgia from this type of music being right in my wheelhouse, but I’m loving this album. On my second listen through, and will add to the rotation. I the end I listened to it three times through, will give it a five!
I bought and listened to this a lot when it came out and then I just stopped. So it was nice to listen couple times through again. Think I’m torn between a 3 and 4, but there’s quite a few classics on this album so I’ll go 4. Best song: Kids, electric feel Worst song: 4th Dimensional Transition, and second half of album generally weaker.
Liked the first maybe 25% of the album. Catchy, quick songs. But I got very bored by half way through the album. I like the indie sound, but don’t know when I would enjoy listening to this. In the end, didn’t hate it, didn’t love it.
Absolute classic. So many great songs. Realizing that I don’t normally listen to the entire album, but I should! Almost all of the songs are good in their own right. Favorite songs: Lost in the supermarket (my favorite), Train in Vain, Clampdown, and many more!! Weakest song: maybe Brand new cadillac
Thought going in this would be a five for me since I definitely had this in the rotation early 2000s. I’m going to go four because it took me two days to get through it. Obviously some absolute classics that are in my everyday playlist: Bittersweet Symphony Lucky Man (An all time fav) The Drugs don’t work Songs that didn’t disappoint: Catching the Butterfly This Time
I know a lot of these songs but surprisingly have never listened to the entire album. It’s very solid, not a bad song on it! I enjoyed listening to it as well and would do so again I think.
Some classic songs here that were played A LOT. Wasn’t super into the rest of the album and some of it felt dated now. The prince collab song Love Song wasn’t bad and definitely sounded unique on the album.
Started pretty well but really slowed down in the second half of the album. Not my typical style of music but don’t hate it.
Ooh this is good! It’s like an inbetween sound from early Arctic Monkeys to the full shift to lounge music. Like this a lot and will add to my rotatio !
Great album! Didn’t listen to Ice T back in the day, he just wasn’t in my rotation. I really liked it, but it seems long… I remember Body Count as a crossover hit with the heavy metal sound.
Very pleasant, soothing, and nostalgic. That being said, it’s a little on the saccharine side for me. But definitely an easy listen for background music or dinner party.
Tolerable which I didn’t think it would be going in! Could be easy background music for a party or gathering. Also got Let love rule stick in my head for the entire day, which I didn’t mind, surprisingly.
This is great. I like Afro-Cuban music anyway but the heavy congos are fun in this. Can definitely listen to this on a regular basis!
Liked this more than I would have thought. Not as heavy as later music maybe? Favorite song: number of the beast, Least favorite: Invaders
Wow, so many hits but I’ve never listened to this album. Classic
Enjoyed this! I know the song Teenage Kicks, which is great. The rest of the album sounds similar.
Couple of real classics on here. Perfect Day is my favorite. I like these and can listen to most of them if they came up in my playlist.
Pixies are in my top bands of all time. Love this album! Still holds up and my favorites are and were Velouria and Dig for Fire.
I liked this. Didn’t grow up in Texas but I’ve been here 25 years and this is one of the true sounds of Texas. I already discovered La Grange through my husband, but the rest of this album is quite good also. In summary, listening to this makes me want to go to Luckenbach, TX!
The music isn’t too bad, but it’s just so loud and I can’t get through the whole album.
Didn’t know this artist but can tell the timeframe straight-away, early 2000s. I don’t mind it, it’s a British dance sound with R&B mixed in. It’s a little long and not sure I’d listen all the way through again.
Another classic and one of my favorites! Haven’t listened to it all the way through in a few years but they’re pretty much all bangers. Favorite might actually be Da Mystery of Chessboxing, along with, of course, Method Man, and CREAM.
Great album. I somehow never owned this “tape” back in the late 80s when I was listening to a lot of REM. I already have Finest Worksong, It’s the End of the World, and The One I Love, which are absolute classics!!!
Great album! Had never listened to it although familiar with several classics. Standouts I think are: Moving Out, Just the Way you are, She’s Always a Woman. And surprising like is Scenes from an Italian Restaurant.
Well, had not listened to this classic before. Some very solid and classic songs, My Generation, obviously, and The Kids are Alright. And some others I liked as a precursor to what I feel is their more signature sound. But the songs Please, Please, Please and I’m a Man grated on me so badly that I’m going to have to go with a three.
Another classic but one of the best rap artists of the 90s. Of course the best tracks are Me against the world, Dear Mama, So Many Tears, are hits. I also like If I die tonight and Old school.
Classic. And honestly listening to this all the way through again my least favorite song might actually be smells like teen Spirit!
Wow! What a great album. The story, songs, music, loved all of it. No wonder kids and artists loved Bowie in the 70s!
Sounds kind of average at best but it has a unique sounds like America sound to it. I Know some of these songs even if they were from commercials of albums representing the 70s LOL.
Didn’t listen to them in the 90s. They are ok, a few good songs and also ones that I remember now. Some songs are very slow, would this fall under the shoe-gaze category? Kinda close I think.
I like this album. The first couple of songs sounded a little repetitive (Uncomplicated and Tokyo Storm Warning), but on a second listen even these songs are nice. His lyrics and melodies and voice, I like!
The bookends of this album are excellent: Gimme Shelter and You Can’t Always Get What you Want. And while bluesy-rock is not my favorite, the album is at least coherent and cohesive. If I had half ratings I’d give this 3.5.
I’m a bit torn on this one. It’s not my style of music: country/folk. That being said, I didn’t mind listening to it. She’s got a lovely voice and it reminds me of Texas, which I’ve called home for over 20 years. Not sure how often I’ll go back to listen but I wouldn’t mind hearing this at say the Kerrville Folk Festival or if we rolled up to Lukenbach and heard this!
Love this album! What a classic. M. E is my favorite song. The only thing keeping me from a five is the length.
I liked this album. It’s like a softer, younger Queen than I’m used to. I think I like Some Day One Day the best. But I didn’t mind any of these songs really.
Excellence!
Nice and easy rock and roll/ R&B. Could listen to over and over. I like Blue Monday best I think. Only knew Blueberry hill.
I can’t properly listen to this entire album because I can only find it on last.fm and not all the songs are available. That being said, I loved The Real Ramona back in the day and I love Tanya Donnelly. I liked the early songs I heard here too! Call me, Hate my Way, are great. Wish I could listen to it regularly.
Umm, I don’t hate this and actually voluntarily listened a second time through. I like Prowler, Remember Tomorrow, and Iron Maiden.
Classic, although I only came to listen to this album in the past several years. If you want a history of post-punk, read Rip it Up and Start Again!!! But these guys, not only influential but I enjoy listening to this album. The obvious, Damaged Goods, is my favorite.
Pretty good. Never heard them back in the late 90s. Enjoyed it.
I like Where are we Now? And that’s about it. I like David Bowie, but don’t need to like everything he’s done.
A true classic! Was in my rotation and I have listened to this album many times. Still sounds great! Favs: Human Behavior Big Time Sensuality There’s more to life than this The Anchor Song!!!
I like punk, but never really listened to Minor Threat. Enjoyed it! Love the short songs and they are catchy.
Shake your fascist groove thing is a classic! I appreciate that this album is either an EP or just very short. I like it, but I don’t know how much I would listen to the whole thing on purpose. Maybe just some of their best of instead.
Oh, snap I know I’m gonna give this a five straight off the bat, my favorite hip-hop band of all time!! It’s not my favorite of their albums but has plenty of great songs: Luck of Lucien Left my wallet in el segundo Bonita Applebaum Can I kick it - personal fav Ham and eggs
What a two days! My favorite band of all time (U2), preceded by Tribe, my fav hip hop band. What can I say, this is the album and concert that started it. Joshua tree tour, Miami 1987. Love every track on this album.
I liked this album. It’s a bit samey, but the songs are catchy and bright. I’ve had Wood Beez stuck in my head all damn day and night!
Such a great voice, and two absolute timeless classics in Respect and Do Right Woman, Do Right Man. That being said, the themes are very consistent love and heartbreak, basically singing about men. Also, soul isn’t my favorite genre so this is a very personal preference rating of a three from me.
Hmmmm, this started out well and I was enjoying it. Then I went back to it and I was bored and skipping songs. I don’t know if it’s mood that really dictates how I feel about Neil Young music regardless I think I’m gonna have to go rather than four, but I will invest more time over time.
Lovely album. Two absolute classics in Rip it Up (which is a total earworm), and I Can’t Help Myself.
This is good. It’s also angry, which means my mood is dictating how I like listening to it.
I love this. It’s weirdly comforting yet fun to listen to.
Love the beats and jazziness to the the songs. The album is a bit long, along with the songs. Not something I want to listen to all of the time.
While I always like “Cut Your Hair”, I never had the patience for Pavement in my youth. Listening to this album now, I actually enjoyed it. Not sure how much I’d go back to it, but it’s a nice relief to go back to some indie or alternative rock.
Not as solid as I remember. It was a great album at the time, but probably a three from me now.
I do not know venom. It was not as bad as I thought it was going to be going into it, although the album is really long and pretty redundant.
Lovely. Never heard of them but it’s great. Very chill, but upbeat and does not sound dated to me hardly at all.
I don’t recall ever having heard Mylo back when this was released. I enjoyed it. I like dance/electronic music, although some from that era can sound dated now. This, surprisingly, sounded less so!!
Classic! I haven’t listened to Dave Brubeck in quite some time but as good as always! Can listen to this at any time.
I don’t hate and don’t love it. But it’s pretty good, quite outside of my usual genres. I liked Eid Ma Clack Shaw. Not sure how much I would listen to this in the future but definitely has its place!
Them Changes is great and already in my playlist. The album is good, o think it’s a little long, but definitely worth being on the list!
Not digging this so far. It sounds from it’s time but not anything special or unique that stands out to me.
Already loved the song Girl Loves Me from when it came out. Listening again, I can appreciate the length (pretty concise). It’s also just great!
A bit slow, sappy, and saccharin. No change of tone or pace. i get that it sounds like the late 90s Britpop underneath but it sounds like a lighter version of what the Artic monkeys started doing with their lounge music, not my favorite.
Nothing really special here. Tooting Bec Rec was pretty good. Other than that pretty pedestrian.
Starts so strong with Being Boring! Lets off a little from there but still a solid album. It is The Pet Shop Boys, after all!!!
Absolute classic. Listened to this CD so many times when it came out. And occasionally since then. It’s so coherent, a bit abrasive, but just so good.
Enjoyed this. Only problem and reason for a three instead of a four is the length. As someone who didn’t listen to a lot of metal or Metallica growing up (probably because I’m a girl and love new wave, alternative, Brit pop, etc) the orchestra really made this more accessible!!
This is what I imagine the late 60s sounded like. Super psychedelic! While I don’t mind the style of music, it just sounds super dated.
Underwhelming, even though Somebody to Love and White Rabbit are two absolute bangers!!!
I thought I liked Nine Inch Nails. I had Pretty Hate Machine in heavy rotation when it came out. I just can’t get into this as an album. It’s too depressing and heavy at times without a melody. The exceptions of course, are Closer and Hurt. Those are classics from this album but cant save the entire thing.
Didn’t mind it. First two songs are the best, Talking bout a revolution and Fast Car. It is a nice length at 36 mins. Overall, a little slow for me.
It’s good! Maybe not GREAT. Love Sound and Vision. The others are not as memorable.
This album improved as it went on and upon second listen. I really like and appreciate Tom Petty‘s vocal style and voice. That being said still somewhat generic Americana rock ‘n’ roll to me, which is not my favorite genre. However, breakdown is awesome and American girl is iconic probably due to that guitar riff.
I get, but it’s boring AF.
Eminem really is a lyrical genius. But in my older age, his songs are super aggressive. I like it but definitely don’t love it.
Lovely. Like Bossanova! One star off because listening to the whole album at one time is a little tedious.
Yay!! I love(d) Ride! This album gets better with each listen. Saw them live a few months ago too.
This is pretty good! Goodness you can hear the similarities in his and Jeff’s voices! Some of the lyrics and themes are a little dated looking back now from 2024, however, the music sounds good and his voice is good so I don’t mind this.
Boring. I can’t get super into The Beach Boys, and I’ve tried with Pet Sounds.
Another banger from Talking Heads, love it!!! Stand outs: No compassion, Don’t worry about the government (my fav?), Psycho Killer, Love —> building on fire, I wish you wouldn’t say that, I feel it in my heart, and Sugar on my tongue. So basically the entire album!!!
I get it, and there’s probably a good time or situation in which to listen. But for me, that’s not very often…yawn. That being said, it would be good breakup music for someone!
Such a classic! Love this album and it still sounds good.
Knocking a star off because halfway through Gumbo Variations I was feeling very jam band-ish. That being said, I like the music! Have never listened to Frank Zappa. I understand why he is a favorite and probably inspiration to Trey Anastasio. I liked Son of Mr. Green Genes best, Little Unbrellas least.
I understand and empathize with his background. Some lyrics are even funny and engaging, like Sigorney Weaver…Winona Ryder’s bad accent lol! But overall it’s not something I would listen to again or engage with. Style is too soft and boring.
I didn’t really know any of these The Byrds songs, maybe just Eight Miles High which was great! I have a lot of time for this. It’s accessible psychedelic!
Great album. I had not listened to this all the way through in quite some time! It’s really good, cohesive. Of course my favorites are Keep the Car Running and No cars Go.
Definitely didn’t see the commercial or chart success that ODB did in the 90s (just from my memory!!) But I like this listening to it now. Sounds more like Wu-Tang than the ODB solo stuff and maybe even Method Man (which was also great.) Maybe just a tad long.
Very good!! This album was too early for me once I got into Siousxie in the later 80s, but it’s great listening to it now.
Ugh I might give this an extra star just for nostalgia and because I can sing all the words of like three songs haha! But listening to this now is super tedious, boring, and nothing special. I take back the extra star!!
Really good, solid album!! Had not listened to this album in full previously. Several hits from this album and the others songs are pretty good. Some are better than others, but overall a great album.
Don’t know what to do…I’m feeling the pressure of a five, but there are three songs that I just don’t like: Songbird, Oh Daddy, and Gold Dust Woman. The others are absolute bangers and classics!!!
Tempted to give this a four. I started listening to the remastered version but found the original and listened again. It’s good. I recognized Gotta Get up, and Coconut of course, although not his original version.
Walk on By and Hyperboliicsy….are great!!!! One woman is ok, didn’t hear anything super special except for Hayes voice, of course!
Smooth operator was never my favorite. It’s nostalgic, so I’ll usually listen, and her voice is excellent. I just can’t reconcile that this album just sounds soooo 80s….Still the songs are catchy and inoffensive.
I’m not familiar with the Triffids. I don’t hate it, but a double album is just way too long!
I should love this since it kicked off the Britpop that I love so much. But I didn’t listen to it then and it’s not that special sounding now.
This was a great album at the time!! It holds up even though Kanye has not. It’s a little bit long which is why I give it a four.
Nice, a bit slow and soft for me to listen to an entire album. Also I remember her and her voice but no specific songs!!
Pretty good, I like it. Not sure what Leb Wohl was, but otherwise it didn’t even sound too dated.
The content is heavy and the music on the rock side of 90s Brit pop. I don’t really like it though. I couldn’t hook onto any really melody or hook. Probably a 2.5 from me because they’re Welsh and the sad story about the Lyricist.
Ok ok, I get it! I knew more songs than I thought I would. This album feels like a National Park road trip!
It’s good. I don’t think it’s great, and he bums me out. There are obviously some bangers here: Heart shaped box, Rape Me, Dumb, All Apologies. And I really like Pennyroyal Tea.
Classic! I love the Doors, and listened to them quite a bit in my early teens. This one is good, containing the classic hits of Break on Through, Twentieth Century Fox, Light my fire, and The End.
Great album!! I liked Steely Dan but not listened to all of their albums. This one is great. I’m giving it a four almost just because Rikki Don’t Lose my Number is on it!
I thought ok Joni Mitchell, cool! Not cool. Total opposite of cool actually.
Very good. I know he’s an asshole but his music is great. Loved all the collabs on this album.
Thought I would like this more than I did. I knew DANCE which is a fun song, the rest is mostly just noise.
Guess it’s official that I like post-punk. Enjoyed this more than I thought I would. Favorite was AB/7A, and Hamburger Lady.
So long….i liked it ok, but it’s a lot. The guest appearances on the second disc are good, Minaj and Kanye.
Liked this! Enjoyed it more than Joni Mitchell lol! Only downside was the attempted ballad(s).
Good to hear the hits again, which really are exceptional songs (Stan, The way I am, The Real slim Shady). But others are mid to bad, like Remember Me, which I skipped.
This is what I’m talking about!! Tribe is my favorite but never got into Jungle Brothers. It is excellent! Will save and listen in rotation.
Have spent time listening to this album in the past because it was so influential. It’s ok, sometimes a chore to listen to. I think Heroin is my favorite.
Music for white people who like black music but didn’t like black people, ugh. Suspicious Minds is the best song, I’m the Ghetto most problematic unless you just sing it in Cartman’s voice!
Another post punk classic and I like it. Never got around to listening to Pete Ubu but glad I finally did!
So short but great!!!
Pretty good listen until we get to the experimental atmospheric instrumentals starting with Sense of Doubt. Heroes is a classic.
Started out really nicely! Enjoyed the first half of the album through Till the Coos come knocking. Then I had to fast forward through the last six songs! Only so much sappiness I can take.
Really liked a couple of the songs when this was out, but never listened to the entire album. I like it a lot. Will add to my playlist!
