More interesting and jangly than expected. Very eighties. Gets a bit samey but enjoying the percussion. Shame the remastered version is still so muddy in places.
Fantastic, love the production
A classic
Good but not nearly as good as her later albums
Not quite but close to his best
Decent - their later ones are better
Heard many times, great but not up there with ah um
A favourite. Hard to believe I have been listening to this for 22 years.
Was excited to finally get something I’ve never heard of, turns out there’s a good reason for that. Bang average dime a dozen boring middle of the road rock that should nowhere near any best albums list. There’s not a memorable or interesting song on it.
Very good, nice to hear again after years - all of their albums have a few weaker songs though, weirdly.
This was unavoidable around the end of the century - lovely chill album with great production and some fantastic bass lines
Pretty good, best unknown album so far. some fairly standard blues/boogie but one or two cool songs there.
Not heard this album all the way through before, it’s not my bag but at least it’s interesting. Enjoying some of the polyrhythms and the instruments used are unusual (didgeridoo was pretty cool). Cool pixies and modern lovers references. Some of it just sounds ugly though - never want to hear Jimmy again. Always good to hear someone trying out lots of ideas, especially when the charts are full of boring middle of the road slop these days. I don’t understand people on here giving this 1 scores, what’s the point of doing this list if you’re not going to have an open mind? Challenging yourself is a good thing.
Pretty good, well aware of the band and have seen them live but for some reason I never went into their back catalogue. It’s very of its time and a little samey but some great stuff there.
Some of my favourite songs of his are on here (Red Rain) as well as a song I dislike (Don’t give up, I never liked it). A great album though, just a shame it’s so heavy on the synthesizers.
Grunge classic, loved it then and love it now
Very good - so many ideas for a debut album. A band I never looked into in any detail but will now.
A very good album although I was more familiar with the two after and like them better.
Always found black crowes vastly overrated, it’s bang average blues rock. Telling the best song is a cover. They’re ok live though.
I love Zappa - this is not his best album (that would be apostrophe, one size fits all or over-nite sensation for me) but still has to be five stars. I can see why this is on the list with peaches on it but would have liked to have seen some more albums on the list.
It’s... fine. She is obviously a great singer but I feel absolutely nothing listening to this.
Not bad, hadn’t heard this before. Can see some influence on later post punk bands. A little one note in places.
Come on now, five stars. Their first six albums are all timeless classics.
Good album, fun to revisit. He has better / more influential albums. Starting to doubt this list at this point honestly.
First great album I hadn’t heard (all of - I did of course know the two big singles). Loved it, it’s so dense and full of energy and righteous anger. Chuck Ds voice and delivery are great on this.
Obviously a legend of the Chicago blues, this album is most likely listed because of the famous recording of Mannish Boy. It sounds absolutely fantastic (and has the great Pinetop Perkins on piano) but I still prefer Folk Singer, or Fathers and Sons.
RIP Ozzy. Good and hugely influential album even if it’s not close to paranoid or master of reality.
A name I’d heard but I’ve never listened to them. It’s alright, some of the songs are a bit weak and the singing / playing not the best. I enjoyed some of the noisier songs and unusual instrumentation
Really not for me. Nile Rodgers is a genius and the guitar and bass parts on this make some of it a worthwhile listen. The keyboards sound absolutely atrocious. Some bangers on here of course but only good on a dancefloor really. As an album it’s rubbish and repetitive.
A classic live album. Their music has always been a bit straightforward for me but there’s no doubting their influence.
It’s cool - some fun samples and really inventive lyrics. Not as good towards the end.
Never heard him solo - it’s good but never particularly great and really let down by the production..
Love PJ - this is near her best. Hope the likes of rid of me and to bring you my love are on the list.
Obviously incredible even if not my favourite of theirs.
Aged superbly -nice to revisit
Good voice but very bland
Very cool but a bit repetitive after a while. Enjoyed public enemy more
It’s fine, she’s a good song writer and great singer but nothing grabbed me
