None of the songs were bad, but none were exceptional, either. Quite a forgettable album. I can't see why it would be one of the 1089 most notable albums.
I know I look like a barbarian giving this review. I'm sure to the 1950s ear this was incredible, but I suppose in the 20s it no longer dazzles. No songs stood out to me. Still good, of course. (Addendum: I looked at some of the other reviews after writing mine and apparently about 80% of people have the same sort of opinion as mine. Not a barbarian after all!)
I like it. Not sure I will ever listen to it again.
Pretty good. I liked Month of May - it reminded me of Rent. Not sure this is an album you NEED to listen to before death, though.
I liked Student Demonstration Time. All of the other songs made me fall asleep, since they were so boring.
Who knew they made a whole group out of the Weird Al song CNR? Good album
Album's pretty good, ignoring Lewis' insane proclivities.
Technically good but practically boring.
Enjoyed listening to it, but I've already forgotten all the songs. Not very memorable.
Sounds good. Probably genius.

I wasn't expecting to like this. I also wasn't expecting all the songs to be so long.
Not a fan of this slow style of jazz.
My thoughts within the first 30 seconds were: "Is this just robot music?". Yes it is, and it's glorious.
First half of this album is dull. Second half's great.
Pretty boring. Did enjoy All I Wanna Do, which is a bit more Fun.
Goes hard.
Interesting sound design.
Was good, but nothing was especially notable to my 21st century ears.
I know very little about singing, but the singing on this album seemed awful. Every other part was good, though. If they weren't it'd be 0 stars.
I can imagine these songs would be good live. Via headphones, though, the album is so boring.
At first I was inclined to give 2 stars; its just random notes and trumpet improvising. After listening some more, I remembered that I actually quite like disorganized notes. The trumpet playing is interesting - as a modern trumpeter (albeit not a very good one) it doesn't seem revolutionary, but I also wasn't alive in 1969, so... Also, the bit of it being a full length album consisting of 2 tracks is just so good.
Solid punk rock. Kind of curious why it's on the list - is this one of the first of this type of punk? It doesn't sound super exciting to me as a hard-core punk fan who somehow has never listened to Minor Threat - did they invent this type of stuff?
