Like the South Side of the Sky track, struggle with synth prog rock with rambling instrumental epochs, solid 3 on balance.

In my all time top 10 albums, absolutely my frequency, love the gravely blues vocals on The Changeling & Been Down So Long, the epic classic rock of LA Women and the psychedelic rock trip of Riders on the Storm, Hyacinth House is a personal favourite that is maybe overlooked along with L'America, no doubt this album is the best Doors album in my opinion and a solid 5 always

Weird electronic surf rock type music thing, grows on you after the twentieth listen (not new to Suicide or this album), always been perplexed as to why it is so renowned, often hit skip on Suicide tracks that pop in a playlists, probably wouldn't shell out for a physical copy any time soon, it's a 'meh' 3 and that's only because, sometimes (when planets align), I like the first few tracks on the album, past half time it's just ambient drivel.

A classic Christmas album of its time, if you have to endure Christmas music you can do much much worse.

Still relevant social commentary cleverly woven together in an album length lyrical story of poor decisions, misfortune and small triumphs.

It's a great album, melancholy with country undertones and guitar work on par with the likes of Nick Drake ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Good lo-fi tunes, I actually don't hate it ⭐⭐⭐

Not really my 'go to' kind of rock (bit too balladry with a sprinkling of lyrical cheese) but solid for what it is ⭐⭐⭐

Horrendous elevator music (first track Birland), the kind easy listening jazz fusion type stuf that brings me out in a rash. Not for me really, might be the first one star, let's see. Okay it got slightly more tolerable further along, still not really my thing though ⭐⭐ to ⭐⭐⭐

A new discovery for me, interesting stuff, being a Zappa fan this hit the mark for me ⭐⭐⭐⭐
