Really great album. I'm not a huge Bob Dylan fan, but this is a great mix of his sound. Half of the song are folk rock with his band, and the other half is more traditional acoustic folk with just him. I really liked this album. 4 out of 5
Album was really good. Jazz album with heavy afro funk. Was this pre-funk? Was this album an inspiration for funk? Really good album. Short album as far as songs, but the songs were long. The songs are instrumental heavy. I really enjoys the songs that featured singing the best. I wish it had more of that. Clearly there was a war story to it. I would like to know more about the meaning of the song or theme.
I know this is a "CLASSIC" album, top 100, but I'm more partial to Dark Side of the Moon. I'm not a huge musical theatre fan, and this seems too much like musical theater. I'm sure I would have loved the live performance concert, but just sitting and listening to the album, I just want to skip through to the good songs. It becomes a bit redundant after a while. Overall, it's a good listen if I'm in the mood, but today I'm just not in the mood to sit through two discs of material from the same artist. The hits are amazing, song writing is great, music is amazing. Just not the day for this one. Maybe this fall.
I know the hits on the album. I know the movie. The songs that I really didn't care for felt like filler songs for the movie. In fact I could picture the scenes as they played....and it didn't make it any less cheesy. Because of the hits, I rate it higher than a 3.
Good Album. First time listening to Zappa. I would listen again!
Great Album! Classic from my youth. The message is really great. Chuck D is great and Flavor FLAV!!
It was ok. Enjoy the Silence is a great song, but everything else is just Meh.
