I think I’ve heard the title track before? Nice sounding album, but not my cup of tea.
Know the band, Roundabout is a banger. Wouldn’t go out of my way to play the album, but wouldn’t change the channel if it was on.
Not for me, but do know the last song from a Harry Potter movie.
Iron Maiden is one of my all time favorites, absolutely love them. I’m younger gen-x so my prime discovery years are of Bruce than Paul, but great debut album.
Love Metallica! Damaged Justice Tour 88-89 was my 1st concert! July ‘89 in CT with Stepmom, younger brother, and family friends. This is a no skip album, a fitting tribute to Cliff.
No matter how hard I try, I can’t get into The Beach Boys.
Iconic album but with a some amazing songs. 4.5 stars
One of the soundtracks of high school. This album crossed demographics, everyone listened to it.
Know the radio hits, but can’t stand Beyoncé.
Earlier less heavier version of Rammstein to an American.
Tried to get into The Beach Boys, but can’t do it. I know this is considered one of the best of all time but “shrug”.
Love “In Your Eyes” and of course grew up on the videos for sledgehammer & big time. Decent album would say 2.5
Swore I’ve heard “Brimful of Asha” before. Surprised by the album, would listen to again.
Two Beach Boys & one Brian Wilson album since he died 15 days ago, STOP. As my previous comments have stated, I cannot get into them. This album is horrible.
Eh, nothing memorable to me.
Has a couple of the hits we all know.
Know the song “Babylon” but other than that…
Was excited to go back and listen to this but was underwhelmed.
30 years ago I would probably would have rated it a bit better but still eh
Better than I thought it would be. Thought it would be a real soft folky. More 2.5 than 3.
This album is fucking horrible, makes me want to scratch my eyes out. How the hell did this make the top 250 of Rolling Stones 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.
Poor Boy was kinda catchy. Northern Sky is ingrained from hearing before but holy shit the rest…
The creator of this book/website/idea have totally opposite tastes
Listened to it yesterday and don’t remember it.
What’s there to say that hasn’t already been said
Was excited to listen to but was underwhelmed. Probably 2.5
As Dave Chappelle said on the stand “he made Thriller, Thiller”
Not bad, reimagined versions of Bo Diddley songs.
Started out thinking okay this is pretty good. Now again today I can’t remember it.
Girls and Boys is a great song but another forgettable album for me
Son of Preacher Man is one of the greatest songs ever in my opinion. Was hoping for more from this album.
Holy hell that was terrible. I don’t know how I got through it.
This album created an entire genre. I’ve loved it since the first time I put my mom’s original lp on the record player. Could listen to it every day for the rest of my life and never get tired of it.
4th Beach Boys related album in my first 40 reviews. I’ll say it again, PLEASE STOP. I understand what they did, but they’re it for me.
Another influential album to a lot of critics but just eh.
I didn’t appreciate this that much when I was younger, but an enjoyable album.
Just because you’re a founding member of the Velvet Underground doesn’t mean your solo stuff requires special consideration.
Tainted Love is the quintessential 80s song, while the music is enjoyable I found singing eh.
Wasn’t a huge fan when it was released. Have always enjoyed “Through the Wire” & “ All Falls Down”. What we know now about Kayne it’s hard for me to separate his personality from his art…
I would say 3.5
I listen to this album at least once a month.
Okay album I guess? Listened to it yesterday and once again cannot remember it.
Okay album I guess? Listened to it yesterday and once again cannot remember it.
Straight up hippie shiznit from the year 1969
Growing up it felt like “Personal Jesus” & “Enjoy the Silence” were on constant hourly rotation for MTV.
Alright album I guess 2.5 stars
Not my favorite album of theirs but love me some Police. 3.5 stars
Not a huge Neil guy, a lot of his stuff I don’t get. I do like some of the hits I guess. Always loved “Heart of Gold” & “Old Man” and enjoyed “The Needle & the Damage Done”. Overall the album was better than I expected.
Other than “Let Love Rule” I’ve never heard anything else from this album. Was hoping for more.
2.5 stars
Other than “God Save the Queen” & “Anarchy in the U.K.” I’ve never heard any of the other songs or had a desire to. I know this album ranks highly for so many people, but it was okay.
Was looking forward to listening to this. Love “Time After Time” but was underwhelmed by the rest of the album.
Good lord this album just drags on and on and on.
It started off as oh God, another one of these albums then I thought it would start to take off, and it never did.
Starts out sounding like someone is banging on a screen door. It’s not a bad album but it’s definitely not for me.
If thriller is a 5, this is 4-4.5 at most. There’s no denying the hits are massive! The misses on the other hand😬
Yeah that was a rough 36 minutes.
Oh cool The Exorcist theme! Oh no 50 minutes for two songs that could have been shortened to one 2-3 minutes song.
Decent enough album, younger me would have probably rated it higher.
3.5 stars
The soundtrack of my youth. My mother is a huge Bruce fan, so his albums were always playing on the record player.
Have always liked Lauryn’s voice.
The only song that I know by this band is what The Dan Patrick Show would end their show with on every Friday. I still couldn’t tell you the name of it. Decent album but wasn’t blown away.
Have loved this album since I was 10-11 years old, favorite Anthrax album.
Even though the album has nine tracks on it, it felt like it should’ve only been four or five. A lot of the songs sounded exactly the same to me.
I felt like I had fallen back into the 90s. Rather enjoyed this album.
This album was everywhere, tons of hits that brought punk to the mainstream.
This is a no for me, did not like it
Never knew The Pixies other than “Here Comes Your Man” that’s on a different album. Not sure what to say about this one?
Never listened to before other than hearing to hits on the radio. Was expecting to like more than I actually did.
Absolutely love “Everybody Wants to Rule the World” & “Head Over Heels” the rest of the album not so much.
I understand she’s a music pioneer and all that but no thank you.
Greatest live album of all time. Also my Dad’s favorite band😊
I don’t get it, originally #449 on Rolling Stones Top 500. Then it moved up to #285 8 years later. I must suck at rating music…
Another one that’s not my thing.
Once again, another one that’s not my thing.
Nile Rodgers is the man! Enjoyed the album but was expecting more.
Chris Cornell is one of the greatest singers of my generation. I hated “Black Hole Sun” still kinda do because MTV played it every 10 minutes. Then saw Soundgarden at Municipal Auditorium in 1996, he sang it a cappella I was blown away.
I’ve always been more Alice In Chains (1a) & Pearl Jam (1a) followed by Soundgarden then Nirvana for the Seattle 4.
Never got into them when I was younger. Like a repeating record of previous comments, was expecting more.
“Groove Is In the Heart” is an all time jam. I felt like the rest of the album didn’t hold the same momentum.
A quintessential hip-hop album!
After seeing another Bowie album listed from the twenty-teens, I thought are you friggin serious? Upon multiple lessons across two days I enjoyed it more than I expected to.
Here’s the song I know from the DP show “Wake Up”. Like the previous album of theirs, decent enough.
Moving to TN as an 11 year old and living here now for 37 years. I still have a hard time grasping/accepting/liking country music. I do remember the song with Buck Owens.
Yeah an hour long album of just piano is not for me.
Janis (or JJ as she’s know in my family, little inside joke) is such a power house.
Man I love this album, haven’t listened to it in its entirety in a while. The memories of that time in my life are coming back in waves.
Really only know them from “Creep” which they hate & “Karma Police”. This album was just one big whiny shrill of whatever. 1.5 Star
I enjoyed this more than the previous two Bowie albums from the 2010s.
Decent enough album, doesn’t have the hits the previous two albums had. Like a broken record, younger me would have probably rated it higher.
The rock songs were good then we get slow soft crap.
Yeah this album was boring as shit
Just like the Dude, I hate the fucking Eagles man. I know this album is huge and an all-time classic but to me it can’t decide if it’s gonna be rock ‘n’ roll or soft rock.
Nice enjoyable album. I picture my grandparents cutting a rug to this.
John Lee Hooker is the man! Very enjoyable album.
Have enjoyed them since hearing them for the first time on the “Singles” soundtrack. Mark Lanegan has such a distinct voice. This is a great album that I listen to a lot.
I did not appreciate The Cult enough when I was younger. They weren’t as heavy as the other metal bands that I was listening to at the time. As I’ve gotten older, I realized what a great band they are. 3.5 stars
Surprised to see the MTV video era album on this list. Decent album but far from their best.
This album is packed full of hits that are main stays in the setlist for years to come. I compare this to Metallica’s Black album, this is what sent Bruce even further into the stratosphere. He was already huge but this made most mainstream people fans.
Yeah I don’t get this album. Thought it was going to start out as an Irish band then ended as slow pop crap.
As noted before, not a huge Neil Young fan. I just like the popular hits🤷🏻♂️
As much as I love them I’m embarrassed to admit that this is the first Creedence album that I’ve listened to. Everything else has always been a compilation/best of album. Very good album 3.5 stars.
I felt like a was transported back to the 90s. Decent enough album, good background music.
Man I’m glad that was only 37 minutes long. As my Fortnite playing son would say a few years ago “that’s dog water”
I know everyone’s taste is different, but how the hell is this considered one of the 1001 albums I must hear before I die…
Know “El Paso” from numerous movies and shows it is in. Can appreciate the album for what it is and the time it came from, but not for me.
Decent album, know the hits.
Know & like the three radio hits. Other than that would not seek this out
I know this is a beloved album by many but other than a few songs it’s okay to me.
Not my thing vocals, too soft.
Emmylou is an icon but country is my least favorite of what I consider the main genres. Couldn’t get into it.
Was expecting more if that makes sense. Decent enough just wanted more
Wanted to like it because it was Willie, still couldn’t get into it.
There’s no denying “Big Poppa” as one of the greatest party songs ever. Like a repeating record on this list, my younger self probably would have rated it higher.
Another album that’s just eh, vocals to soft and not my style.
That 80’s punk rock sound.
I enjoyed this album way more than I expected to. 3.5 stars
Listen to this album on the regular. Love Hendrix!
Saw the name of the band and thought cool this should be good. Boy was I wrong.
What a boring pile of shit.
Enjoyed “Cowboy Movie” rest of the album not so much.
She has a beautiful voice but not my style of music.
Enjoyable album, I own the CD.
Eh, looks like I’m more of a Talking Heads hits guy.
Wu-Tang is for the children!
Dance album so the songs went on longer than they should have in my opinion. Nothing special.
Stacked with hits, amazing album!
Love this album, have it on constant rotation.
The iconic hard rock album.
The only song I know by them is “She Don’t Use Jelly” and the sound of this album was unexpected.
Nothing special, pretty bland.
I’ve always liked this song “Memphis” and for some strange reason enjoy his voice. But this is not something I can listen to maybe one song at a time can’t take a whole album of it.
Another one that doesn’t do it for me.
Not sure I’ll listen to again but decent enough album.
Enjoyable Christmas album
Wasn’t a fan when I was younger but can appreciate them now that I’m older. As with other bands I like the hits instead of the entire album.
Awesome debut album. This is in my regular rotation.
Never a huge fan, only know the radio hits. Damn that was a struggle to get through.
The album felt uneven. The majority it were slow tracks with a couple of up tempo bangers sprinkled in. Easily could have been a 5 if it had that up tempo beat throughout, unfortunately it did not.
I had War on cassette tape as a young child. When this album came out I was 10 years old and already a full blown metal head. Decent enough album though MTV played the hit videos over and over and over again. It got even worse with the following albums.
I don’t get the mass appeal of Coldplay to me. They’re overrated and just like any other pop band.
I moved from Connecticut to Tennessee when I was 11 years old. I was a full on metal head & could not stand country music. Almost pushing 50, I want to appreciate country music for what it is but holy hell that was horrible.
“Tangled Up In Blue” is hard to beat. Enjoyable album.
Enjoyable album, but I expected more umph.
My Dad hates “The Boys Are Back In Town” so much that it’s become a family joke. Once again a decent album but I was expecting more punch.
I have dreaded of the day this album was gonna show up. I have tried numerous times throughout the years to listen to & get the hype around it. Once again, I still do not know.
Enjoyable album except for the cover of “Memphis, Tennessee”, holy hell that was horrible.
First time ever listening to the album, enjoyable.
Cannot get into this band. Do not like the vocals or the tempo.
Alright for a few minutes but not listening to an entire album.
Decent album but not a fan of ELO
Enjoy the hits, but would probably rate higher if I was younger. 3.5 stars
Enjoyed more than I expected to, but it’s Dolly!
What’s to say that hasn’t already been said!
Never heard of these guys before, solid album.
Lyrically, what the fuck did I just listen to?
