Pretty good. Enjoyed it more than the Neil Young solo album. Personal favourites were Helpless, Woodstock, and Our House.

Simply one of, if not thee, greatest rap album of all time. The lyrics of Cube/Ren combined with Dre's production is perfection. You can still feel the influence in flow to songs like Rapper's Delight and the beats are basic and pumped full of samples which might sound somewhat simplistic these days but I think that gives it a lot of its charm. It might not have the creative rhyming of Eminem or experimental production of Kanye but, considering how young the whole genre was, and the fact it was produced for $12k, it's beyond impressive. Certainly one of the most cited and influencial albums of all time considering how huge the genre is now.

First disc - liked 6 songs. GhettoMusick is a banger. Second disc - liked 6 songs but wasn't paying attention in the middle section.

Really nice album with great guitar as expected. Flows really well.

Enjoyed most of it tbh. Not really any stand out songs other than the two everyone knows already but I didn't dislike any of them.

Reminded me of CCR, Cat Stevens, and Bob Dylan. I liked it but not enough that I'd listen to it again.

Not really a fan of live albums. The trumpets were annoying too. But I liked most of it. Would listen to non trumpet songs again as background music.

Not the best Rolling Stones album. I liked around 3 songs.

Quite samey throughout. I probably wouldn't listen to it again but I didn't hate it.

It's not the best Beatles but it's the Beatles

I liked 4/10 songs. The rest of it felt very samey so I can only give it a 2 though it's better than the Neil Young album so I wish I could give it a 2.5

Well that was pretty damn great. I didn't listen to the Super Deluxe Edition because it's like 3 times longer and I cba. Personal favourites were Don't Know Why, Feelin' the Same Way, and Turn Me On. I liked probably 10/14 so I think I'll be generous and give it a 4/5

Some really good songs mixed in with some random crap like circus music because nobody had the balls to tell Damon it was dumb. Still, it's a good album. Other than the obvious ones, I really liked End of a Century and To the End.

Not bad. Weren't really any major stand out songs for me but I kinda liked the vibe throughout. You can hear the Madchester influence in songs like Mysterious Ways which sound like they could have been produced by Factory Records. 3/5

It felt like a parody of punk. I liked the music but the lyrics/singing wasn't great, though maybe that's the point? Wouldn't listen again.

This is literally menu music for an early 90s skateboarding game

Not a fan of reggae. High Tide or Low Tide kinda rescues it from being a 1 though

Nice chill album but no stand out songs for me.

Lovely album as expected from Dolly. Personal favourites were Here I Am and She Never Met a Man (She Didn't Like). I liked how short and sweet it was.

I thought I'd like it more than I did. It was okay but no real stand out songs for me.

What in the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater menu music was that? Can't ever think of a time I'd want to listen to it again but I still didn't hate it. Could have been a single song and I wouldn't have noticed a difference.

We should change St. George's day to December 15th to commemorate the day George Clinton brought us this album back in 1975. I wish my inner voice sounded like George Clinton. His speaking voice is as comforting as it is funky. This was great. Recognising the 2nd song as the sample from Dr. Dre's Let Me Ride was also fun. The instruments were so simple but were woven together masterfully and that bass guitar felt like a heart beat carrying me through each track. I started listening to it just before bed and thought I'd just check out the first song and finish the rest in the morning, but, once I started, I couldn't pause it. This thing is a masterpiece. Clearly I'm a big fan of albums with spaceship cover art. In summary, there isn't a single weak song on here. After one listen, it's already one of my favourite full albums of all time. Also shout out to Garry Shider. The vocals on Handcuffs are incredible.

Pretty good. Enjoyed it more than the Neil Young solo album. Personal favourites were Helpless, Woodstock, and Our House.

It's just a jolly Bob Dylan cover album and that's not a bad thing.

More like Chore of an Album. Yawn.

Quite forgettable

I already knew Sultans of Swing was one of the greatest songs of all time but I'd never listened to this album before. It's pretty damn great. Nobody makes a guitar sing like Mark Knopfler. It always sounds like he's singing a duet with it rather than just playing it. It almost feels like one long song, which I'd usually complain about, but that guitar gets into your soul and I love it. However, it does mean there aren't any other stand out songs for me so I wouldn't be able to give it a 5.

Was only ever going to be an instant 5. Best way to do a live album. Johnny doesn't waste much time talking and he sounds just as good as in the studio

Still one of the greatest debut albums of all time. Arctic Monkeys are like Game of Thrones, 5 great albums in a row and then Alex Turner goes insane and burns everything. Some super fans might pretend they like the last couple of albums but I think a line from this album sums that up quite well: "his bird said it's amazing though so all that's left if the proof that love's not only blind but deaf". Oh yeah, I'm supposed to review this album, not Arctic Monkeys in general. It's great. To use another TV reference, I'd say it's like "The Inbetweeners" of albums. It's the most relatable album to people (maybe just guys) who grew up in England in the 2000s/2010s.

Really enjoyed the first song but was kinda disappointed by the rest of it.

Honestly kinda overrated. I've been listening to the two singles for years and always liked them so I was expecting better but the rest of the album is quite forgettable. Would probably give it a 3.5 if I could.

Simply one of, if not thee, greatest rap album of all time. The lyrics of Cube/Ren combined with Dre's production is perfection. You can still feel the influence in flow to songs like Rapper's Delight and the beats are basic and pumped full of samples which might sound somewhat simplistic these days but I think that gives it a lot of its charm.

Channel 5 midnight casino background music vibes. Place your bets. Big_Les69 is the top virtual roulette earner tonight.

Considering I already have this album saved on Spotify, it's gotta be a 5. Otis has the greatest voice of all time and the fact that he died at just 26 years old is the biggest tragedy in musical history.

Very British invasion pilled

Couple of decent songs but it was too poetic and not musically interesting enough for me

It's a good album but it's just covers. I would give it a 3.5 if I could.

Kinda forgettable brit pop

It's standard jazz. Good background music.

More jazz but kinda funky

An aptly named album because, by the end of it, I wanted to toaster-bath myself. I was going to give it a 2 but then my ears were assaulted by the 10 minute toilet bowl fetus that is "Frankie Teardrop" which barely even counts as a song. It sounds like someone just recorded a meth addict ranting and screaming outside of an abandoned power plant whilst the crickets do their hopeless best to drown him out. For context, the album is only 32 minutes long so an entire third of it is spent listening to whatever that was supposed to be. I understand "experimenting". But sometimes you get Tomorrow Never Knows, and sometimes you get whatever this is. The experiment was a failure. Time to revise the hypothesis.

Very interesting album. Never listened to early Genesis before. Reminds me of Cat Stevens. Like medieval bars music. 4/5

I don't think I understood a single word but it honestly wasn't too bad. Pretty standard punk and I appreciated that it was just 15 minutes long.

Love Nina Simone but I've never listened to a full album of hers as I always imagined that, as a Jazz singer, there wasn't much value in her albums vs just listening to selected songs. However, this was a lovely album with some nice songs and (obviously) fantastic vocals. There were still a few too many "boring" songs for my liking though. I wish the entire thing was more like "I Love Your Lovin' Ways" or "That's All I Ask".

Great album. Only song I didn't like was Mental Stamina because of the annoying bleep sound that plays throughout, though I enjoy the other components of the song still. Just a good example of the late 80s / early 90s flow.

Never listened to this album before but I can see that Foo Fighters have basically always been the same since inception. It's a guitar and Dave Grohl repeating the same line over and over. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. My favourite song was "Big Me" which sounds very Beatles inspired to my ears.

I enjoyed the mix of hard rock and blues songs. Really good cover of Please Please Please and of course My Generation and The Kiss Are Alright are iconic.

Shout out to the guy whose review pointed out the Spotify link takes you to a double album. The only way I could find the actual Devotional Songs album was by googling "Devotional Songs Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan Spotify". Saves you 45 minutes. I enjoyed just a single song from this slog of an album. It was "Yaad-E-Nabi Guishan Mehka" and I think it's because it didn't sound exactly the same as the other songs which could honestly be a single song for all I know. However, that one song can't make up for how bored I was listening to the rest of it. Maybe if I understood Urdu/Punjabi, I could appreciate it more at least just for the lyrics but that's not something I'm prepared to do at the moment.

Great album. Stand out songs of course are Hells Bells, Back in Black, and You Shook Me All Night Long. Other than that, I wouldn't say there were any hidden gems here. It's all quite standard hard rock. None of it bad but I think they should have spaced out the latter two a little because the last 3 songs feel like an anticlimax after two legendary songs in a row. It's not quite a 5, but it's close.

Default jazz 3/5. Not good, not bad, just jazz.

Default jazz rating

Rio and Hungry Like the Wolf are classics but the rest of the album is just okay. Not good, not bad, just fine. I'd give it a 3.5 if I could but I don't think it deserves a 4

Swing > Jazz

Simply amazing from start to finish.

Feel like I should have been on acid for this, though the album is a trip in of itself. What an experience.

I have no Idea what they're singing about most of the time but it sounds good. Really liked Plastic Bag.

Knowing nothing about country music, I can't help but compare every female singer to Dolly. Nanci has a lovely voice, the songs are simple and sweet, if not a little unrelatable to anyone not from a small Texas town.

This was awesome. Can hear the influence on many later bands. Feels very modern despite its age.
