good ass opening song
100% heard parts of these songs before just not in full
goes without saying but the instruments go hard
lemon song instrumental break would 100% be used in a bar fight scene
very obvious that there is a lot of inspiration from blues music
LIVING! LOVING! SHES JUST A WOMAN will probs be stuck in my head
moby dick: hell yeah
very interesting topic to start an album off with
i rate the choice of making almost 5 minutes of your 7 minute song purely an instrumental
found it kinda hard to enjoy some of the slower songs compared to the faster ones though (based on the spotify plays that seems to be a more popular opinion though) - but i enjoyed moonlight mile so maybe it was just the specific songs i didnt enjoy happened to be slow
as a jojo's bizarre adventure fan I am disappointed
mannish boy is a VERY GOOD track to open off the album with. enjoying it extensively even though this type of genre isn't usually my go to - blues always has the best instrumentals though and they are really flexing this on bus driver huh
i want to be loved short and sweet, was doing some stuff while listening and was vibing very hard
spitting facts with 'the blues had a baby and they named it rock and roll' cause that is accurate but you dont need me to tell you that
sadly i do think as the album went on it dropped off a bit, was going to be a comfortable 4 stars originally
i am skipping all these introductions this album is long enough i do not care if it is not the 'full experience'. i am not a jazz guy so lets see how this goes.
my first impression is that I will genuinely have no clue how to rate this because obviously the instruments are very impressive but I can't remove my prejudices and biases away from it - the music is very good and if I was somewhere and this was playing in the background I would not be upset and would enjoy it but I am never going to go out of my way to try and listen to this or recommend it to anyone cause it simply is not my kind of music
I would say that after a while it simply just becomes more of a background music, not that it is necessarily a bad thing
I apologise Mr Ellington, in another life this could easy be a 5 star album but alas it cannot be for me personally
usually I have a lot to say on my opinions. this time I got nothing.
the transition from Right Here Right Now to The Rockafeller Skank was very enjoyable for me
I imagine this album would be 1000x better if I was on ketamine however I do not believe I could source that just for this one album
essentially just background music
not inherently bad but I am not going out of my way to listen to this
the vocals and the instrumentals dont feel like they match on the first two songs idk if it is a mixing issue
not sure why but there always seems to be at least one thing that bugs me in 75% of the songs in this album
fuck yeah
average
Yes.
I love it.
having a three song medley of Tenement Funster, Flick of the Wrist and Lily Of The Valley for me at least is unheard of so I got kinda excited at hearing it
they understood the assignment by letting THE Brian May do a guitar solo in basically every song
I have heard many people in the past talk about how Queen is more of a 'singles' band as opposed to an album band, but I don't believe this should be categorised in that.
weakest song probably She Makes Me (Stormtrooper in Stilettos) which seems to be reflected in the Spotify listens too but I still enjoyed it
Freddie Mercury still imo the best voice of all time
Disappointed
thoroughly enjoyed it
nothing special
yea this shit aint for me
if i wanted music for studying id just listen to lofi hip hop radio 📚 beats to relax/study to
eh
she has a lovely voice
isnt this like the holy grail of the 1001 albums??
i guess
you say
what can make me feel this way
my girl
the instruments are great
the vocals not so much
this album makes me feel like im on a beach drinking cocktails
its alright
im not a rap guy
this shit slaps though
decent but dragged
even if you dont like country, you'll like johnny cash
there are like 2 ok songs on this album
i felt sick after it
boring ahh album
