5/5 for this absolute classic.

Classic 60’s songs, with Mama Cass’s amazing vocals. Loved it.

What a debut. Hard hitting, infectious and full of hits

Not my thing..

Pointless, self indulgent pap.

It’s Bob Dylan! It’s also… only ok? There’s a few standout tracks, but as always, I feel that Bob writes better poetry than songs. They’re more impactful on the written page.

One of the most overrated albums of all time. Anodyne, over produced, commercially cynical, not a single song on this LP even compares to the likes of the Supremes. It would be harmless pap, but the cynicism just bleeds through so much.

Overrated, overblown, ego filled shite. It was football terrace chant shite when it came out, it remains shite now. In fact, I’d say it’s now like dogshit that’s been out in the sun for too long and has gone furry - it’s mouldy, pointless Dadrock for idiots who barely scrape two syllable words together. Needs to be consigned to the trash heap along with the idiotic brothers Gallagher.

Overrated, pretentious, overblown, meandering pap. By this point the drugs had well and truly got hold of Lennon, combined with the talentless Yoko’s influence just ruined one of the countries best song writers. There’s one outstanding track which earns the one star - Working Class Hero. The rest deserve to be consigned to the bin

After Surfa Rosa and Doolittle, I did wonder whether the Pixies could pull three absolutely amazing albums out of the hat - and they did. It’s all there - the growl of Frank Black, the accompanying harmonies of Kim Deal, the guitars of Joey Santiago - and it just works. The Pixies were, and remain, the GOAT.

It’s good, but not War’s best. The title track is a banger.

Yes it’s dated now, yes it’s a bunch of cliched AOR staples, yes it has about as much depth as a summer puddle, but I defy anyone to not shout along to Livin’ On A Prayer or Wanted Dead Or Alive if they hear them in the car or in a bar. And for that it gets 3 solid stars.

Classic 60’s flower power era folksy, gentle songs.

A great piece of 90’s Britpop!

There is music before IV came out, and then there’s music after IV came out. IV set the yard stick for rock for decades - and remains a high point. Yes, Stairway has become almost a cliche, but so have sayings from Shakespeare, Dickens and Austin - they all share one thing: Our language, our culture is enriched by their existence. It’s that good.

I hadn’t heard this before, but I really quite liked it. Clever arrangements, poetic lyrics, harking back to a feeling of the Roaring 20’s in places, a quintessentially English country feel in others. A nice collection of well made songs.

I can’t fault this album at all. It’s a perfect slice of 60’s Americana, perfectly framing the time.
