A remarkable piece of history. Even though from reading about it, this isn't the full recording, it's well put together and has a real feel of being in the room and a slight air of menace even all these years later. Playing San Quentin and then San Quentin again straight after and positioning it as improvised is a masterstroke

One I actually knew pretty well, a big Neil Young fan though not a completist. Love the sound of this album, love Crazy Horse and the feel of a band in a room together. It's got really raw riffs and it takes its time, marking itself as the template for everything Neil Young and Crazy Horse did afterwards. Danny Whitten did a lot more than I remembered, plenty of important vocals etc. Great band. This comes just after Buffalo broke up and before CSNY really took off but obviously he came back to Crazy Horse as necessary. Just a brilliant indicator for starting this listening project to get to re listen to an album I know.

Another that I knew. One of my favourite Stones albums. Probably at their best for me

Brilliant listen, or at least the first half is. Absolute bangers of tunes, it's like a perfect half album

Not really my kind of thing. I get the importance and the influence but I'm too old for this kind of indie emo now

Love this album. Jack White slightly wandering outside the self-imposed White Stripes template but the bangers are still that loud sparse style. Blue Orchid, My Doorbell, Little Ghost all great

Brilliant, so much fun

Classic for a reason

Ha love this one. I'm very familiar with it, overdubs and all! I think that it's a great album no matter whether there are overdubs after the fact, which there are and it's never affected my listening. The epic drumming from Brian Downey is a particular highlight

My favourite of these American recordings. Obviously it has Hurt which is the best known track of this era but this is the top end of this concept of covering songs in the late Cash style. This album feels vulnerable and raw and is all the better for it. There are a few I'm not a fan of - Danny Boy and Desperado are songs I don't like no matter who is singing. I Hung My Head, The Man Comes Around and his reinterpretation of his own Give My Love to Rose are my favourites.

Fine, liked the opener, bit samey after that. Interesting to listen to rather than enjoyable

Pretty cool, hearing a lot of Tom Petty in it. I was expecting it to sound a little dated but the guitars and drums have that 70s feel that lend itself to a sort of timelessness, stays away from the overly jangly guitar of some of the 90s. Strong voice and really good songwriting, a confidence to the whole album really

A joy

Mediocre and messy

Yes

Really good, easy to listen to in the car

Sounds like the cover. You will run through a wall. I don't like it but my wife has strong feelings

Great production

Great stuff, hadn't listened to all of it before but a great jam
