Don't think I'll go back to it but it was surprisingly alright

Didn’t rate this, not particularly memorable

Enjoyed this more than Meat Is Murder but I don't think I'll rush to listen to the full thing again

It's fine but fully carried by Sultans Of Swing, there's just nothing particularly memorable otherwise

Really enjoyed this, have never really listened to them but there are some serious tunes on this

Enjoyed this one, took me back to my teenage years where I loved listening to this sort of stuff

Wondered when on Earth it was going to end

Apart from 'All I Wanna Do' it's a bit of a nothing album, easy to listen to but nothing outstanding sadly

Good for what it is, probably wouldn't go out of my way to listen to it but a good album

I liked it at first but the longer it went on the more I disliked it

The best guitar album we've had by far, enjoyed this one.

Enjoyed this more than I expected to, not sure I'll go out of my way to listen again but I was pleasantly surprised

This was beautiful. Somehow never listened to this album but will definitely listen again.

Good album but not my favourite by them

I quite liked it, but I can't say I plan to listen to it in full again.

It isn't bad it's just not piquing my interest at all, just really bland

It was alright but I don’t think I’ll choose to listen to it again

It was fine, I won't go out of my way to listen to it again

Still a brilliant album, seriously great to listen to

Love this album

Enjoyed this way more than expected, would probably listen again

Better than I expected

It was nice enough, not really listened to them before and wouldn't be against listening to more

They have some serious tunes but this may be one of the dullest albums I've ever listened to

I don't think I'd choose to listen to it again but it was alright

Not the most memorable, don't think I'll go for it again. I didn't hate it.

It was pleasant but I can't say I'll be going back to this one

I didn't really remember anything about it right after finishing listening to it

One of my all time favourites and I still love it

Not awful but I can't say I'll be going back to this at any point

I knew more songs than I thought I did, not bad

Enjoyed it a lot more than I expected, hate the skits so probably wont listen to the album again in its entirety

Not bad, don't think I'm likely to go back to this one necessarily

Decent album, not in a rush to listen to it again. Born To Run was probably the standout track sadly.

Really enjoyed this, more than I was expecting to.

Enjoyed this, quite nice to listen to while working

Indifferent, don't see what the fuss is about

Never heard of it before, didn't find it particularly memorable and doubt I'll listen again - not bad enough for a 1

Enjoyed this so much I listened to it twice

Enjoyed it but can't say I'm likely to listen to it again

It's not awful, it's just too long and not particularly memorable. No intention of listening again.

Realistically I'm not going back to it, it was quite nice background noise while I'm working though

It's nice enough but realistically I'm not going to listen to it again

I enjoyed it but I can't see myself going back to it much (if at all) as I'm not too fussed about the songs that aren't singles.

Hate him and hated this

It was alright, I think it was about the same as Born To Run but I don't think I'll rush to listen to it again

Really enjoyed this, only reason it doesn't get 5 stars is I can't see myself going to a different platform to listen to it again

One of my all time favourite albums

It was alright but kind of faded into the background, I wouldn't be against listening to it again but I doubt I'll go out of my way to

Nice enough for what it is, although I doubt I'd go back to it it's a solid country album

Such a long album, I was indifferent to most of it, wouldn't go back to it bar 'Under The Bridge'

It's not a bad album by any means but it's carried by 'You're The Best Thing', can't see myself going back to it.

Nice enough album, wouldn't be against listening to it again

I expected to love this but it just feels really flat. If I'd never listened to them before I wouldn't go out of my way to listen to them again following this.

One of my favourite albums, love it

Not for me, it was fine but I don't think I'd choose to listen to it again

Was indifferent to this until 'Piece of My Heart' started but that was sadly the only bit that grabbed my attention

Nice enough, I'd listen again

Really enjoyed this, some serious tunes on here

Haven't heard this one before but it's rubbish

Terrible

Decent, never listened before bar Off With Their Heads

It was ok but a bit dull

Not listened to this before but this is seriously incredible

Not as bad as I was expecting, probably wouldn't listen again but decent enough

Not for me, couldn't get into it

It's fine but doesn't really go anywhere for me

Probs one of, if not my favourite album by The Cure

Enjoyed this more than I expected

Somehow never listened to this album before and had a load of songs on that I never knew were by The Stone Roses. This is a banger.

They have the odd good tunes but yet another entire album is too much, meh

It's ok

Decent, I doubt I'll go out of my way to listen to it as it's a live album but there's no doubting he was incredibly talented

It was alright, don't understand why my brother raves about them so much

Really enjoyed this, nice to have on while I'm working. I'd go back to it again.

Not for me really

A nice listen

Not a fan of this

Decent, I'd listen to it again

Decent album, the hits definitely help it but I enjoyed it overall

Expected to like this more than I did but it fell off after the first couple of songs

Massively preferred this to Hail To The Thief to the extent I'd say I actually quite enjoyed it?

Nowhere near as good as Pet Sounds but still not bad

Not really for me

Better than I was expecting it to be but not sure that I'd go back to it again

It was alright, I'm not against listening to it again but I'm not sure how quickly I'd rush back to it.

I enjoyed this a lot more than I expected to, but it isn't my favourite of the 3 I've listened to so far

Not listened to this before but I enjoyed it more than I expected to

Could probably have cut half of this out, it was alright overall but I'm just not fussed for Elton

It's better than I was expecting but I can't say I'll go back to it again. I was actually surprised to recognise a song from it (the title track)

Not for me at all, gave it a few more songs but I hated it from the very start.

Think I'd have never listened to this if it wasn't for this project. Actually really enjoyed it.

I think they're brilliant live but I just can't get into them recorded

A decent listen, I'm not sure how likely I would be to go back to it as the whole thing doesn't appear to be on Spotify.

Grew up listening to this because my mum is a huge a-ha fan, some serious bangers on here (not even including Take on Me)

Enjoyed this more than I expected to, to the extent I'd probably listen to this again.

Brilliant album, brilliant duo, loved it

A pleasant listen but I'm not sure I'd really go back to it again.

Thought I must have been listening to a different album than everyone else. Really didn't rate it, didn't think it was anywhere near as good as people had made out and I doubt I'd go back to it.

Never heard of this before. Overall a pretty good album. Will I go back to it? I'm unsure, but it was a decent listen.

It's alright, I'm not sure I'd listen to it again. Something really irks me about his voice.

I expected to enjoy this much more than I did, it just didn't really do anything for me. I doubt I'd go out of my way to listen to this again.

Pleasant enough but can't say I'm all that fussed about it - it's a shame that Solsbury Hill is miles better than pretty much everything else on the album as that's the only one I already knew!

Can't say I'm a fan, and the fact it's only really on Youtube means I absolutely won't listen to it again

I thought I'd enjoy this more than I did, it was nice enough

Didn't expect to recognise any songs but recognised way more than I thought. Decent enough.

It was fine but basically a nothing album.

Somehow haven't listened to this entire album before but there wasn't a bad song on it.

A nice listen, quite samey but enjoyable

Not sure I've ever listened to them before and I didn't know what to expect. I seriously enjoyed this and am looking forwards to checking out more.

Already didn't rate it but questionable lyrics brings this down to a 1

Never heard it before, it's funky, I quite like it. Not sure how often I'd listen to it but it was a fun listen.

It was a new one for me, I enjoyed it but not sure how much I'd go back to it

Banging album, Ozzy is a serious loss

Haven't listened to this before and enjoyed it more than expected, would probably listen to it again

It was ok

Didn't know what to expect with this one but I really enjoyed this! Really nice varied album.

Outside of the one big hit on there it's a really underwhelming album. I'm sure it was great in 2002 but I don't think I needed to listen to it now, it was fine.

Liked this more than I expected considering I don't usually like Nick Cave's music. I'm not sure how likely I am to go back to it again but this surprised me.

Never heard this before but it's such a 'nothing' album that I can't believe it made it onto this list. It isn't horrendous is the only nice thing I can really say.

Quite enjoyed this

Overall quite enjoyed it, solid album

Nice enough listen, not sure how likely I am to go back to it but I wouldn't complain

It was nice enough, can't say I'd choose to listen to it again but I wouldn't switch it off

There are (obviously) a couple of big tunes on here but the rest is so much filler. Wouldn't go back to the full album again by any means.

I enjoyed this, do we really need two Hole albums on the list of 1001 albums you must listen to before you die? Probably not, but there are some serious bangers on this one.

Decent, not sure how likely I am to listen to the album from start to finish again though

It was fine enough, I don't really have any strong opinions on it

It's alright, don't think I'll go back to it

Never heard any of this before, enjoyed most of it, but some questionable lyrics and the odd awful song prevented me from giving it a higher score than 3 stars.

It was alright but I'm not fussed about listening to it again

Enjoyed this more than I expected to but overall I'm not particularly bothered.

Enjoyed this way more than I expected, seriously good

I expected to enjoy this more than I did, but the only real banger is Jean Genie

This just didn't do anything for me. I know people rave about them but I didn't get it.

Decent, enjoyed it more than I expected. I just don't think I'll listen to it again.

Inoffensive but incredibly dull

Can't deny he had a good voice but the music overall isn't really for me, doubt I'd deliberately listen to it again

Really didn't care for this as much as I thought I would. Not sure I'd go back to the full album but probably would for the odd tracks.

This wasn't at all what I was expecting considering the other music by Brian Eno I've listened to. It was alright, but I don't think I'd rush back to it.

A fun listen that's completely new to me. I'm not sure I'd go back to it but I did enjoy it.

Wasn't sure what to expect from this as I can't say I've ever gone out of my way to listen to much Jamiroquai. It was better than I expected but a bit too long by the end of disc 1 (I didn't bother with disc 2)

Don't think I'll listen to it again. It's literally fine.

Didn't enjoy this at all tbh

Pretty decent.

I don't mind Metallica that much but I didn't really care for this.

It was a nice enough listen but ultimately didn't really do anything for me.

I knew I wouldn't like this album, I can't get on board with Tom Waits, but I thought it was only fair that I gave it a fair shot. I was right. I didn't like this album. Terrible.

It's decent enough but overall just too long for me to fully enjoy. There are some bits I'd happily go back to though.

Pretty dull to be honest.

Never heard of them before or heard this album but it was decent.

It wasn't as great as I was expecting it to be, still a decent album.

Never really got into The Smiths, it was a decent enough album but I don't think I'll rush back to it

It was a nice enough album but I didn't think 'this is an absolute must listen' while I was listening to it.

It was alright but just not for me. I can't see myself going back to it.

It was a nice enough album, I'm not sure if I'd go back to it again. But a pleasant enough listen.

It was fine, nothing mind-blowing but a decent enough listen. Probably won't go back to it.

Wanted to enjoy this more as they are really good live, but the album just didn't really do anything for me

Found it incredibly dull

It wasn't bad by any means but it didn't really do anything for me.

I wasn't sure what to expect with this one but it was a pleasant surprise. A decent listen.

It was a very pleasant listen

Enjoyed this more than I expected, some serious bangers on here

Didn't really do anything for me

Didn't really do much for me. It's alright?

Outside of the hits this was pretty mid
