Fluttery, indecisive, prone to pretentiousness. No boldness in any way.

Catchy but slick.

Fresh and energetic.

Hopelessly outdated seen from 2024. Not more than interesting compared with their musical contemporaries.

Pompous, but in an acceptable way.

Ray is a genius. Not this time.

38 minutes of good songs played in a row. When they are over … it‘ s done. Technically under par.

Neh

As boring as it can get. That is alternative rock? Yes, that was it. The label for mediocre artists with mediocre material ( badly performed on … did they use equipment?)

Right between the eyes.

Hard rock standard. Like a Schubert Lied or Bach Kantate. Period.

Engaged, doesn’t keep its promise.

Hmmm.

Better listen to Etienne de crecy: Super Discount.

Indispensable classic ( for young white male rock fans)

One killer (Blue suede shoes), the rest are fillers. Certainly his fame wasn’t founded in the lp era.

Better than Abbey Road

Sounds like a German group. Laid back or overbored?

As a single outstanding ( Buona sera) the rest too repetitive.

Ahead of their time. Still palatable.

Great, great, great.

One of my favorites

Not my cup of beer.

Not uninspired, vivid, to male.

Classy

Seriously trying, but not overly gifted. Worth listening still.

Hasn‘t aged as well as xpected

I don’t know, what it is. This kind of simple or that kind?

Insurmountable

Poor man‘s R.E.M.

First track: wow. Second: björky, third: neh.

Indispensable.

It‘s ok

Don’t know why, but I can’t take the lyrics serious or meant to be honest.

Great album in the great class of ‘69.

One of the best debut albums ever. Indestructible.

Yes, yes, yes.

Artistic benchmark meets commercial availability.

Great American Songbook, Nelson Riddle, Tin Pan Alley, repeat ad lib…. Anyway great album

Incompetence, not eccentricity.

Cars ride by with the boomin systems… Dat‘s all, fokes.

To start an debut album in 2000 with a cello and a horn was a bold move.

Miscellaneous, failed and successful. Classics and extraordinaries.

Too much „Shang-A-Lang“. „I‘m glad“ saved it.

Surprisingly musical richness of melodies. Monetary restrictions of production budget limits.

Nick Cave or Neil Diamond?

Still fresh in a strange way.

Still fresh in a rare strange way.

Okay

Can‘t judge it.

Without judgement

Actually boring

Underestimated.

Nice try

Poor Man‘ s Guns’n Roses

Solid pop music.

Timeless.

One of my favorites

Imagine, they have written their songs for Elvis!!!

17 tracks, many ideas, none grabbed me. I‘m sorry. 3 stars without rating.

Super boring

Unique, even amongst Beck‘s oeuvre.
