5/5
Quite possibly the best album of all time. Stick Eleanor Rigby on the White Album (fine song just doesn't fit on Revolver), Good Day Sunshine on Sgt Peppers where it belongs, throw Yellow Submarine into the sun, and replace them with Rain/Paperback Writer and the album is pretty much perfect.

About as high as I can rate a blues album - enjoy it quite a bit while listening to it but will never willingly stick it on. Can't distinguish it much from other blues artists. Mannish Boy is a classic though.

Liked a lot of the songs, but there are so many that it's hard to rememeber any in particular. Stand outs were As We Go Up We Go Down, Game of Pricks, Salty Salute, Auditorium, My Valuable Hunting Knife.

3.5. Quite enoyable but ultimately fairly forgetable, songs kind of blended into each other. Billy Jack probably the highlight
Morrissey

I always want to dislike the Morrissey/The Smiths as he's a bit of a twat and has an annoying voice, but it usually ends up being pretty good, this album is no different.
