Not one for me
First impressions based on one listen (!) Liked the covers best, probs cos more familiar. Liked production and instrumentation. Not sure about his voice for the most part. Will defo listen again. Bit baffled by the wide range of reviews of this by others … but I’m new here.
Okay, but not one for me
(I have this) Really enjoyed this slab of solid electric blues. Not a duff track on the album, but my favourites are Roadhouse Blues, Waiting for the Sun and Maggie M’Gill.
Liking this album, which feels like Graceland in formation. Fave tracks are Mother and Child Reunion, Duncan and Paranoia Blues.
(I have this) Liked this more when it was first released when I listened to it a lot. Still okay, but not a favourite. Maybe a few too many songs about how tough it is to be in the music business and/or living in California. That said, best tracks for me are Hotel California and New Kid in Town.
Not something I would have ever listened to without this list. A strong set of funk-Motown crossover. Favourite tracks are Cloud Nine and Runaway Child Running Wild.
A top drawer album, brimming with great instrumentations and, of course, Otis Redding’s rich and soulful voice. Top tracks for me are: Satisfaction and Rock Me Baby.
The strong start provided by the first three tracks gives way to some overly smooth and repetitious stuff. Stand out track for me is The Urban Theme.
Extreme politics meet stabby guitar riffs. Best tracks, for me, are Damaged Goods and I Found That Essence Rare.
Not one for me.
Great rock album, liked it a lot more than I expected. Top tracks for me are Baba O'Riley, Behind Blue Eyes and Won't Get Fooled Again.
OK, but not one for me. Fave tracks are Heartbreaker and Lovefool.
Fine. My favourite tracks are Brass in Pocket, Private Life, Stop Your Sobbing and Space Invader.
(I have this) I do have affinity with the sentiments and messages in the lyrics, but musically I feel the album is enormously overrated. No Surprises is best track for me.
Ok, not for me though.
Not one for me
Justifiably reckoned to be one of the greatest live albums. Crank up the volume on your high-end hi-fi, let the raw production wash over you and you're right there at one of the front tables. Top tracks for me are Chain Gang, Cupid and Twistin' The NIght Away
I get the significance of this album, though I wonder how it is viewed by true lovers of HipHop, as opposed to ‘rock’ critics. Not one for me. Top track = Peter Piper

Fine! Grew on me.
Better than I expected, but not to my taste.
Not something I would normally have ever listened to. Quite liked it.
Good album, though couple of tracks don’t feel like they belong here (Dreamin’ and You Are). The rest are great though.
I liked it. It was different to what I expected. Also, I’m always glad to find things that are not on Spotify.
Ok, probably needs more listens for me to appreciate it.
