Overhyped but good listen

Maybe the best opener and closer to an album.

Didn’t need to be a double album. Other than bullet with butterfly wings and 1979.. not as many memorable hits as the Siamese Dream

Great surprise for any album I have never heard of. The Hook is an ear worm.

Went it knowing the songs (and frankly some over played songs) and thought it would just be one listen. Found myself relistening a few times.

Solid album

Love the lo-fi!

Three unreal openers! Knopfler has such unique finger picking playing style…

Love Jazz and Thelonius but this is an EP. Shouldn’t be on an albums list. Good album but getting a 3 star review.

Probably the best Sri Lankan Artist ever… Paper planes blew up deservedly and a couple other cool tracks but overall not enough for me for an album.

I was helplessly hoping for some CSN as I was having some de ja vu. Found myself singing along… GEM!

Best album so far deserves six stars out of five.

Not my jam on the initial listen. This is not the best of list but “1001 albums you need to listen to” I listened… not roughing back to it.

Maybe has a place in its era. Probably bias, but not Leonard Cohen.. fan wasn’t my favorite.

Got to the Nick Cave game late. Discovered him with Peaky Blinders theme song. First listen to this album. Listened 3 more times… Sounded like some subtle use of the accordion which was cool. Only a few bands that can pull that off-Cowboy Junkies and Spirit of the West.

Never heard of Antonio Carlos Jobim. Average listen for me other than The Girl from Ipinema

Like the popular singles from the Cure. Never listened to a whole album. Need to explore more.

Such a good album took me right back to high school.

Only knew Tick Tick Boom… good album! This was more punk than the radio hit deserves 3 1/2 stars if this platform allowed. I would relisten.

Rare that albums are not streamed as listeners have inevitably encountered. XTC first two albums are not on traditional streaming platforms. The rest are label owned rights… I listened on YouTube but disjointed with ads between every song. Decent for a first listen.

Again wish there were half stars as would give 3.5 but since it didn’t earn 4 for me it is a 3. As much as you hear Dylan influence in future music and his legendary status this album has some filler IMHO. It does have one of my all time favourite Dylan tunes Shelter from the Storm. Right up there with girl from the north country.

Go to the dance with Bowie after he passed. Was not a big fan of the stuff I grew up hearing on the radio…namely Dancing in the Streets turned me off. His early stuff is better and Queen Bitch is an ear worm.

Enjoyed this…partial to original Wu.

As revered as he is…Not my cup of tea.

Was a good listen! Have trouble giving 5 stars as I think there are only 2 originals on this…. Mostly covers

Totally unique album if you have never listened. It takes a few listens. Tough right out of the gate with inaudible lyrics and soundscapes…

As much as a goofy figure Snoop has become this was and still is a great album. Blueprint for others to copy.

I completely understand that this is not necessarily the best 1001 albums ever, but albums you have to listen to before you die. I get that Lemmy was a huge presence, but this is not Hawkwinds best album, but you can see the beginnings of motorhead.

6 out 5. Would listen to this anytime!

Good not great album.

Meaaahhhhhh!

Listen to it o loud the only way!

Second best Oasis album but a banger.

The decline of rap

Never heard of Mike Ladd before this

Not his best but deserves to be here.

Excellent….

Have to have Dylan…

Need some time to percolate this

Definitely not timeless. Their music sounds of the era…

Solid. Period.

Wasn’t a fan of his commercial stuff…and hoping his son has some albums on here JTE

Decent… as a group I need a playlist or greatest hits. Album end to end has some filler.

I was turned off by the band initially because of all their commercial success right out of the gates, but this is a great album and they deserve all the accolades they got at the time and now!

Obviously the hit but as an album fell flat for me

Great pump up album… Base is A Game!

Worth a spin!

I guess it is an album to listen to before you die, and perhaps their seminal album but they have better in their catalogue. Fingers crossed for London Calling.

Great album! This is the total reason I like this email reminder a day heard of them never really gave him the lesson. Definitely gonna spin this in the future.

Decent is all I can say good artist average album

Classic and truly an album to to listen to before you die.

John did some cool stuff post Beatles but there is better material.
