Fantastic album - wonderful melodies, a saccharine and plaintive voice driving you mad but comforting you as well, confusingly

Would be great for working out. Probably not a casual listener for me, but it’s a great album in technical/musical terms, love the anti-war and government sentiment as well

Fun, experimental, weird, lovely. A grand old time, all hail Bowie

More variety in the album then the three songs I know so well

Full of energy and dissidence, some felt too 90’s to really enjoy, but some of it really holds up

Saying Aretha is incredible is like saying water is wet, but my first time through a full album of hers and I’m damn near speechless

Listened to this album more than 40/50 times growing up, unmatched for its time and its purpose

Really lovely album. Flows well, has a bouncy moody ambience, and has interesting things to say as well as some silly things. Overall a great listen!

Immaculate vibes, truly. One part nostalgia and one part undiscovered bliss

Melancholic with a satiating twang. Easy listening, shimmering vocals, and some pretty picking, though maybe not a daily listen for me

Wonderful heartfelt album, really feels like experiencing a piece of a man’s soul, a journey into his hurt and psychic trauma. Great playing on every track, and a deep rich voice

Weird as hell, I love it. Not something to just add to playlists, but a lil masterpiece of a thing. Contains a lot of divergent energies, but still somehow cohesive. Can get a bit strung out in places

Fun style. Feels like some guys with blues foundations wanted to follow the Beastie Boys

Classic album. Way more soul in this one than expected. A lovely time spent

Bits of delight laced throughout, but something cheesy or false pervades. Overall, not really my jam

Fun bouncy album, a bit too much on the pop side of things for me, but some of the songs are a ton of fun. Lead singer’s voice is fantastic and super versatile

Bright energy, lots of positivity and fortitude. A mainly relaxing listen

Very lovely playing, lots of different modes encompassed in the performance, the shifts and accelerations to create differing sentiments is stunning. A great performance to listen to while working

A classic - full of bangers, soul, and lovely melodies. Mick shooting lightning and Keith shooting heroin

Such a fun album. Like Wutang if they did acid. Back and forth from laid back to in your face, not a bad vibe in sight

Really good album, a type of metal I can totally get with. Not a casual listen for me, but definitely great for the gym

Classic album - didn’t know about this original version, but what a lovely surprise it is

Haunting and spooktacular. Ghosts of melodies and paths widning off into the dark forrest

Fantastic album - wonderful melodies, a saccharine and plaintive voice driving you mad but comforting you as well, confusingly

A nice album - desolate ballads that don’t seem to live up to their potential mostly, dissonance without a purpose or something like that

Lovely music, but as good as the melodies are and as beautiful/poetic as the writing is, it kinda gets trapped in one lane, needs more ingredients or energies to feel more complete as a work of art. Fantastic, nonetheless

More soul than I expected, a lot of interesting ideas and some mundane ideas interestingly expressed, love it

Sparkling with positivity and bodacious vibes, a great mood album. Built for a summer drive through the countryside

Classic. The inchoate rock that would propel the blossoming of a movement. So sick, but so much repetition within songs and on the album. A good time tho

Powerful and fun - lighter than Led Zeppelin 1, but still a lot of the soul, energy, and beauty of it.

About what I expected, musically good and full of life. But missing something integral to what I enjoy in music, can’t quite say what

Cute, but not as good as actual Beach Boys stuff, kinda just a bummer

They’re not beating the cheesy allegations, but this is a fun time.

Vivacious, provocative, energetic. Good dirty fun

Musically impressive (I think?) but would just never listen to this

Interesting album, some of the songs are nice, but it doesn’t quite click for me. Maybe someday

Good album, surprising in its different tones, deeply felt emotions expressed

A good solid album of resistance and folkloric lovesongs. Good for a hootenanny or two

Fun, summery, a bit too much of the same, but cohesive in that same way

As good as I remember, a masterpiece of beach love and longing

Wonderful stuff, for nostalgia and all the great times spent with this album, def a 5

Kinda felt like watered down Foo Fighters/RHCP - not for me, maybe

Pretty good, lots of energy, variation springing off the songs, but not quite my jam

Fantastic! Not a daily listener, but for certain moods and vibes, seems like it’d be undefeated

Good fun, high energy, bouncy and interesting

Nicht fur mich, ich hasse diese album gern

Really good vibes, innovative and interesting
