This one didn't quite land for me, both halves of the album sound nice enough but I don't find myself wanting to listen again. On side one I like Beauty and the Beast and Heroes but the rest are forgettable, and on side two I think the ambient soundscape thing is interesting but not really for me.

Man, what an incredible album. The lyrics are strong (although imo too cute at times (looking at you, Decatur)) and you can tell all the references are well-researched. The star of the show is the composition, I was blown away the entire album. Favorites are Come On! Feel the Illinois! and The Predatory Wasp of the Palisades Is Out to Get Us!

I've had Public Enemy on my to-listen list for a while and this album didn't disappoint. I love the sample-heavy style, my favorites are Brothers Gonna Work It Out and Who Stole The Soul? but I also have a soft spot for the pettiness in Incident At 66.6 FM

I appreciate the emotion and energy this has, but I just can't get past not really liking her voice, and the instrumentals are whatever for me. All I Really Want and Right Through You are pretty good.

I came into this not having listened to much Johnny Cash before and I enjoyed it a lot. The live format works really well, it gives the whole thing a tangible human quality and I liked being able to see the two-way communication that music can create that you don't always see from concerts. Favorites are Starkville City Jail and San Quentin

This one is famous for side 2 being one long song, but I wasn't really into it to be honest. I did like side 1 a little more, this may be an insane comparison but My Mirage reminded me very strongly of Aerosmith's Dream On (in a good way).

I feel very meh about this one. I like the first few songs, especially E-Pro and Qué Onda Guero, but then it just kinda drones on and I don't get much out of it after that.

I thought this was alright. I really like it when it's a little more energetic, especially the horns sections, but when it slows down it loses me a bit. Favorite songs are So in Love and Love to the People.

This one is very pleasant, all the arrangements are minimalistic but Nelson's voice is great and they're all classic pop songs. Favorites are Blue Skies and Don't Get Around Much Anymore

I didn't like this one much at all, really dislike the first half but the instrumentals on most of the songs in the back half are pretty good (still don't like the vocals). Just barely enough to turn 1 star into 2 for me

This is a really good album, I was already a fan of CSNY but I hadn't listened to much of any of their solo stuff before. It's not quite all bangers but it's pretty close, favorites are Southern Man and Don't Let It Bring You Down

I feel meh about this one, it doesn't sound bad but it also doesn't do all that much for me

I really wanted to like this one and there are songs that I like a lot including Roadhouse Blues and Ship of Fools, but the songs I don't like as much end up feeling pretty grating to the point that the album is just 'meh' overall for me

I'm a certified Red Hot Chili Peppers hater, I tried to give this album a fair shot at changing my mind but it didn't

I like the first few songs but it gets old quickly for me. Favorites are Expectations and She's Losing It

This one hits hard, very rawly emotional, and very sparse which adds to the effect. Favorites are Speakin' Out and Borrowed Tune

I like this one a lot, normally I prefer songs that focus on the lyrics more but I'm so blown away by the soundscape the album creates that it overrides that preference. Favorites are Fight Test and Do You Realize??

I'm a big fan of this one, I hadn't heard of Nick Drake before but I'm a sucker for a singer/songwriter that starts including horns and woodwinds. Favorites are Hazey Jane II and One Of These Things First
