While a classic, listening to this all the way through in one sitting is not the way to do it. Or rather I’ve grown to feel that Dylan’s later albums actually work together as a whole, while this felt like a mix of singles thrown together to create a whole album.

I wouldn’t call myself a Billy Joel fan, but this album was shockingly good! Maybe it’s because it has all the hits- which is, in a way an indicator that it is a good album! I would give it a 4.5- rounding down.

Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band
3/5
This was truly innovative and groundbreaking at the time of this release- and still holds a spot as being an important piece of music in history. However, noise- art rock is not for me. So it’s getting a 2.5, rounded up to 3 because Capt Beefheart was a visionary. This is just realllllly hard to get through!
