Not super familiar with folk music or folk rock, but I really appreciated this album. It felt very heartfelt, vulnerable, and sincere. Stevens' singing style and the mood of the album didn't feel like it changed much, so songs started to feel really similar to each other, but that's a minor gripe for how good this album is

An absolutely beautiful album. Even without knowing the words, the music itself was so dynamic and catchy and powerful that it earned a five star rating.

Live albums aren't my go to albums for any artist, but the appeal of a live album feels very apparent on this album. Fast, loose, charismatic and soulful throughout the whole album. A great listen overall

Coat Of Many Colors - Dolly Parton I'm not a big country music fan, so I figured there'd be a cap on how much I'd actually like this album, but Dolly's songwriting ability really made this a more enjoyable listen than I expected While the slower instrumentals of this album don't do anything for me, they set the stage for Dolly well. Her singing felt too warbled and flimsy in parts, but she does a great job of making whatever she talks about sound interesting. From her experiencing a summer breeze to losing a man to her mother, she makes her subject matter incredibly interesting to me with how poetic and heartfelt her lyrics are I don't see myself going back to this, but I'm glad I heard it. 3/5

This album really came and went for me. Nothing about it was bad by any means, but it quickly became inoffensive background music to me. None of the choruses or instrumentals stuck with me after multiple listens. I was very meh. The ratings don't use half ratings, but I'd give this a 2.5/5 to be more accurate

An incredibly odd album with some interesting highs and terrible lows. The sounds used on this album range from upbeat and tinkering electronics, thumping trip hop drums, and sounds I can only describe as the cartoony and futuristic squelching of a ray gun from an old 8 bit SNES game Despite some big misses, I do respect the experimental nature of the album and really found myself enjoying the moments where the album slowed down and went away from the odd cartoony moments There's genuinely some stuff on here that I'd love to go back to, so it's hard to really nail it as bad. Odd and inconsistent, but not bad
