This was a lot of fun. Great when you need something different.

You can definitely see how a lot of these ideas would progress to a more 80s rock sound. Definitely ahead of its time and some really good stuff in here but for whatever reason it just doesn’t hit with me as much. I definitely understand the appeal but it’s not my favorite though it did grow on me as the album progressed. The more I think about it, you can see some industrial synth stuff in here that was definitely ahead of its time but the prog aspects seem tired to me in relation to actual prog brands from the same time.

Generally fun. Like being in high school again.

Lovely. Will revisit

Honestly better than I expected. The guitar solos are better than I remember Elvis Costello being and there are so genuinely good songs on this album. Not to mention the cover is a brutalist masterpiece.

Not for me. At all. The hip hop portions are OK, but I just don’t like it. Gave up after three songs.

Nick Drake’s music is just beautiful. Love the interplay of the droning guitar and the piano. One of These Things First is an all-timer.

This was a fun change of pace for me. Maybe not an everyday thing but I like it.

Honestly I needed this album in my life today. Some really great songs especially Tuesdays Gone, Simple Man and Freebird.

It’s good and is exactly what you think about when you hear Bruce Springsteen. I wouldn’t say it’s exceptional, but I liked it.

It was good. A bit chaotic but by design.
