A delight!

Patchy, but very enjoyable at its best.

A handful of good country/pop songs, some turgid blues.

Sublime

Not for me - give me Hunky Dory instead!

Holds up well - not my favourite Costello LP but still a strong album.

Like the poppier tunes, the ballads become a bit tiresome.

Knew this album as a teenager, haven't listened for best part of 30 years - really enjoyed the opportunity to revisit - title track & 'A Design For Life' the standouts.

I appreciate the influence of this album on other bands more than I like the music itself! (though I do like some of the music, especially 'Ex Lion Tamer').

Really enjoyable - lots to love.

Not a blues aficionado, but I enjoyed this more than The White Stripes!

Great band performances - much of the lyrical content hasn't aged well.

Delightful stuff - great tunes, players - inimitable piano (& celeste!).

Classic stuff - wonderful musicians - fab songs - production maybe just a little too clean?

Dated but fun

Uneven, but many (sixties-style) pop gems.

Many classic tunes - even the deeper cuts - track pick 'Glad Tidings'.

Some strong, witty songwriting - a bit dated by its production.

Super patchy! But gets by on charm and an undeniable classic ('Maybe I'm Amazed').

Of its time - not for me!

Same as White Blood Cells - just not my thing - (and Seven Nation Army rips off Bruckner!)

Super-dated 90s electronica

The title track is hard to compete with, but the rest of the album is never less than enjoyable - beautiful vocal arrangements especially.

All over the place! Mostly fun. Some wild guitar.

Very, very silly.

Unimpeachable classic.

Hasn't aged especially well, a few good tunes.
