Of course knew a lot of songs but hadn't never closely listened to them - a lot better than the general cheesy 80s impression you get from hearing them on TV. Still not something I think I'd come back to much but can recognise that's it's a well crafted album.
Feel like the historical context of this album is quite important to appreciating it (which I don't have). Lots of references to race/gender which was probably more profound 40 years ago. Musically, I'm not that in love - feel like ska is just worse than reggae. The odd song does a good job blending that rock/reggae sound (stupid marriage, stupid bitch)
Enjoyed it, can see my self coming back to it while doing some work or relaxing in the evening. Pretty standard good jazz - cant complain
Album saved on my phone = Certified banger. Giving a 4 feels harsh but it doesn't quite reach that 5. Some big tracks on this one but I didn't realise how much Monkey Man slaps
Surprised at how many songs I knew from someone I didn't know the name of. Decent album but not doing it for me
I really enjoyed this album - loved the rhythm of the album across the riffs and drums - and after reading about some of their story and a few translated lyrics this is a 5
Eh, kinda boring
Soft 4 - a bit too long but overall quite enjoyed it
First album I didn't really want to finish. A bit all of the place with range of sounds Thought hey at least it's ending stronger before remembering working class hero is a John Lennon song.
Started listening to this album sober = shit. After some work drinks = good. Could also be that the first half is bad (bar first song).
What song was I suppose to enjoy here?
