He wrote some great songs and the arrangements on this album are good. But man who did he have around him for vocals input? Why did anyone think he should lay these tracks down with his vocals?
So good. Zero skips. Perhaps his best album. I only own Space Oddity on vinyl so I don’t listen to this one as much. Did he invent punk rock with Hang on to Yourself?!
Had to create a playlist to recreate this album for Apple Music streaming. https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/this-is-fats-domino/pl.u-BqENS1jV119 . Excellent. Terrific music and probably the first ever rock and roll song ever written and recorded? Very cool.
Very good. Tempted to give it 5 stars after the first track. But a solid 4 stars overall.
I don’t know if any Black Keys albums are less than 4 stars. Solid album.
Not their best. Maybe their worst but still better by miles than anything by The Beach Boys so.
I finished it. interesting perhaps. Not sure how to rate it though. 1-2 stars probably. Not sure I would ever put it on again. Not for me
Very much enjoyed. Starting to rate these albums by “make me dance” factor. 4/5.
There’s a time and place for this music. But not in my regular rotation. His voice is nice for sure. 3/5.
Disco!
One of the best rock bands ever. And this album is one of their best.
Would be at least 3 stars if he didn’t come across so phony on just about every track. 1-2 stars. Some are listenable but most make me cringe.
Best from them? Probably. Sounds like gen x. Rock on. Probably 5 stars - very good.
Soulful. Jazzy. Chill and good AF. Excellent.
Cheesy, cringey and dated. So 80s (in the worst way). Oh and the singer is almost always flat. Why is it two discs?????
Starts out OK ... got better though. Supercut is pretty good and tracks after. Perry good pop album. Was going to give it 4 but when listening again (same day) I decided it's not as enjoyable as I thought it might have been. 3 stars
It’s ok. Probably better that his solo stuff. Grew on me as it progressed. 3-4 stars.
Wow. Fitting today since Ozzy died yesterday (RIP). First album from them also one of their best. Terrific.
I actually dig it. Never hear it before. Would probably listen again. 3-4
I mean? I’m only 6 minutes in and I already love it. But I’m into jazz. Love hearing new to me great jazz albums.
Never heard before. It’s ok I reckon. Not much variety though.
Meh. Not into this old lo fi shit. And enough with the screaming on every track.
Excellent. What more to say? Oh yea, LOTR lyrics (awesome).
Don’t judge an album by its cover … don’t judge an album by its cover … don’t judge an album by its cover. It’s dance music. The album isn’t amazing or ground breaking (is it?) or anything. Not sure why it’s here.
Meh. It’s ok. History and all.
Good start with Hidden Place. Cocoon has some Kid A vibes. Pretty solid. Will need a re-listen.
Pretty solid. Southern rock in its goodness - guitar riffs - Rock - Yea man. 3-4 stars
Interesting fusion of a bunch of sounds. Not bad. Not sure how it holds up as an album though. 3-4?
I know I’m supposed to like The Band but I’m very bored by this. Yawn … now I’m reminded why I’ve never gotten into these guys after being exposed to them over and over through the years. Boring.
Actually expected to not like this very much - but it's quite good. 3.4 stars? Yea.
Excellent guitar. 4-5 stars
Oh cool live at the Fillmore. It’s also at SF? Strange that this is an album as it isn’t recorded at the same sesh. Still good though. Enjoy the jammin. 4 stars.
Not available on Apple Music. Starts off strong …5 tracks in still digging it. Not bad. First time listening (that I know of). 4 stars
In my time of dying might be one of their greatest songs ever. Great album. Longer though. Probably 5 stars.
Yea man. Never heard them before that I know of. Into it.
Love this. Excellent album
Not bad. Some great songs here. Probably high 3 to 4 stars.
Solid country/bluegrass album. Great vocals and song writing. 4 stars.
I’ll try my best to judge this by its merits alone and not that they released one of my favorite albums of the current decade. Still, their very first album rocks. So many bangers - 0 skips - 5 stars.
Excellent. Too little from him sadly. Great covers in here too. Great vocals. 4-5 stars.
Pretty good. Maybe not as good as the very similar one 10-13 years later.
Pretty good. Should listen to it again. Probably 3 to 4 stars.
Yea this is pretty shite. Maybe 2 tracks pulling this out of the gutter. Wanted to skip most though.
Little bit of a train wreck from the start. Not good. The mixing and sound is pretty bad. A few tracks are just meh. 2 stars
He’s my bess fren. Yea this is good. I like it. 4 stars
Why is this here? I mean there are like a thousand indie bands from this era. Why this? Maybe this caught me on a bad day but I cannot stand the vocals. I was leaning towards a 3 (meh) but the last few sent me into dislike (2).
Oh wow I thought this was Clapton before realizing it actually was lol maybe I remember this subconsciously from long ago or his voice and guitar is that recognizable. I like it.
Oh yes pretty good.
I actually kinda like this. My head was bobbin. Raw, punky and fun. An influence on Jack White perhaps? I don’t know but sounds like him a little bit and some Black Keys too. Not bad.
It’s ok. Has a few moments but not enough to keep me liking it all that much. Just ok.
1969 was an impressive year for these guys. An Ok album here. Short but that’s not a bed thing per se. But if this is the best of 1969 then 1970 (Cosmos Factory) is better.
Pretty solid album here. I think I’ve only ever heard one or two of these before. I’d listen again.
Really good. First time hearing this one. Hard to decide between 4 and 5 stars but I don’t think I love it (yet).
Never heard it before today. It’s ok. Only know her for her supper famous song that came out a few years later.
Yea man. Pretty pretty pretty good.
Not really into it. Urge to skip tracks is strong with this one.
Changes is such a great song. So many great tracks here.
Pretty good debut. But why is he considered punk? I’ve always been confused by that. 4 stars
It’s ok. Nothing here to get too excited about.
Very bored by this. Nothing grabbed my attention except for the first few seconds. Meh or maybe worse than meh.
Actually starts off pretty good. She's definitely got a great voice. Good beats. Might have been 4 stars if it not for disc 2 (strange).
Very calming, chill album. Simple and good. I dig it.
Reminded me of Portishead somewhat. I dig it.
It's ok.
If the album was more like the first track it might be 5. But it’s not so it isn’t. Kinda boring after track 1.
Meh. Its ok.
He is so boring.
A classic. Already had 3-4 tracks starred from this one. Love his voice on this album. So smooth. 5 stars - a perfect country album.
Wow. Other reviewers weren’t wrong. Each song is very repetitive. Perhaps too much. I enjoy some. Repetition drops it from like to meh.
Excellent (so far). On a trip so finding it hard to listen continuously. Enjoy the vibes of this jazz album.
Pretty good. Excellent music all around.
Not my first time with this one. I’ve enjoyed it for many years.
Yea. I like this ok. Reminds me a bit of this group I used to listen to many years back - ah! I can’t recall their name now. Less Indian but electronic sounds similar and similar vibes.
What is this? Why is it here? Yea this sucks.
I’m not a huge fan of the lo-fi thing AND they suck. I don’t know how revolutionary they were - they sound like Primus only way worse. Not quite a 1 since I didn’t hate some tracks. 2 stars.
Some was good. Some wasn’t. It’s not quite a like for me but not fully meh either.
Yea man. This thing rocks.
Solid album
Love this one. One of the best of the 90s - better than anything from Nirvana (sorry not sorry).
This one was not bad. I enjoyed many of the tracks but wasn't totally taken by the album. Some of them sounded like the grateful dead which was interesting. Between 3 and 4 stars - so a soft 4.
Much too long. If it was only the originals and didn’t include all the remixes and other versions it might get more stars.
This has a few moments. But overall it feels pretty dated and like they are trying too hard. I don’t know … maybe it could grow on me but it’s meh upon first listen.
Yea. It’s good. Great debut.
Might have liked it a little more if it wasn’t so long. Also, what’s so special? Why did I have to listen to this before I died? I think I would have been ok had I not.
Meh. Pretty boring. Nothing grabbed my attention.
I can understand why this album is on a list like this. Having said that, meh. I usually like these guys but I don’t think this album is going to be in my collection any time soon, if ever. Repetitive. Fairly boring.
Yea man. It’s Costello. It’s rock. It’s pretty good.
Yea I liked it upon first pass. Probably needs another listen or two. Never listed to this until today.
Yea not bad. I liked it ok. Probably need a few more re-listens to really rate it properly.
Another live album? Another Brit band? The Brit bias keeps shining through all these picks. Having said that, this didn’t suck. I liked it more than most normal Who stuff. They sound great live.
This album was already in my library so I heard it before I died and this list. It rocks.
Naughty. Interesting lyrics lol. Didn't hate this.
Scanning over all the negative reviews is quite funny. Hate someone cuz they suck not cuz they’re popular or critics really like them. I don’t know if any Radiohead album is less than 5 stars. Prior to today’s listen I thought that this one is their weakest album but after another re-listen damn this is good. If this is indeed their weakest album then damn they are the greatest band ever.
Interesting.
Weak start ... uh oh. First track is annoying. Why is this here? And why is this deserving of a 3 disc deluxe edition? (I'm only listening to disc 1). I don't really like this. :(
Yea man. Early 90s hip hop. It’s good.
Once again the Brit bias of this list shining through. This. Is. Not. Good. Almost broke my no skipping/listen to 100% of album record. Are all the 5 star reviews listening to the same album as me? I don’t get it. 2 stars since I didn’t hate every track (but almost).
I never like Kanye but I had never listened to this one. It’s good. Minus the strange, non-sensical lil Jimmy skit track, this is not pretty pretty pretty good. Pretty creative album. But maybe he shouldn’t have hated college so much and tried to learn something back then and he might not have ended up with a brain of mush today. 4 stars.
It’s ok. I understand that it’s early or first. But there’s better sounds for my tastes.
I like it. Mellow, simple, good Springsteen
K who said the vocals were great? Cuz they aren’t. Except for the backup female vocals which are not prevalent enough to save this. The vocals alone drop this to a 2 minimum. Not good. Actually the more I listen the worse it gets.
1 star - based on the first 90 seconds alone. Dear god why is this here? I think this is the nail in the coffin of giving up on this shite list. And on day/album 101 :(. Track 1 broke my no skip streak/goal to listen to 100% of the album. Nearly 100% skips. Just so awful
One of their best. Do I still need to listen today even though I listen to this all the time?
Meh. I don’t know what it is but I’ve never enjoyed this album all that much. They have better stuff. I liked maybe 1 song here. Maybe not even enough for 3 stars. Hmmmm
Some good background music for a haunted house on here. This doesn’t deserve a lower rating than that Scottish folk psychedelic collective BS album I heard the other day. Don’t get me wrong, this is shite, but I didn’t skip 1 track. This has actually got some hilarious stuff on it.
Not very good.
An ok Jazz album. Not into it as much as others though. I like the piano parts and solos a lot though.
Angryman (track 2) was good. But track 3? WTF? Track 4 too - odd. Track 5 instrumental good. Track 6 meh. Maybe a few others were ok. 3 stars.
Not crazy about the first 60 seconds. Took about 4 minutes in on the first track. Pretty good jazz album. Not one of my favorites though. 3 stars.
Dated and cheesy. Not for me. As it progressed it became more and more objectionable to my ears.
This is great. All the things I love about bluesy, jammy rock. And I’m ashamed to say I’ve never listened to this album before. 4 stars
This was great. Excellent vibes.
This is peak 80 (which means it’s not good). 80s pop is so dated and this album is no different.
Love her voice but this way too long and the songs are pretty boring. Decent background music though. Not sure how to rate this or if I can finish it by tomorrow. If you condensed it down to a normal album length selecting the best tracks it would easily be a 4 star album.
Boring and lame. This album is rubbish.
Go Back Home (track 5) is really good. A few others are good too. But not enough for me to really like. A solid 3.
Oh man. Dear god why? Awful. Is this album the reason 80s pop is so bad? Are they to blame? Nearly unlistenable. This list sucks.
Meh. Probably one of the most overrated bands ever. Everything from 90s Radiohead and 90s Smashing Pumpkins is better than this. 🤷♂️ . I really don’t like the extra grungy vocals on many of the tracks. Is loving Nirvana a cult? I don’t get it. As the album progressed my rating got lower and lower. During Frances Farmer it got to maybe a 2 I dislike his vocals and the song that much. Definitely not a 4-5 star album for me. More like 2-3. Best part: drums. Worst part: vocals.
Pretty good. Love the duets.
Um starts out a little rough but grew on me for sure.
I haven’t explored Mayfield as much as I should have. Pretty good album for the most part.
Vocals: 1. Drums/guitar: 4. Repetitive song formula: 2. 4 plus 1 plus 2 equals 7. Divided by 3 equals 2.333. I’m surprised, as I expected a higher rating but damn his vocals wear on ya for an entire album.
Someone tryin to be MJ …Only one MJ dude. This shit boring and not for me. A bunch of skips.
Yea pretty good.
Pretty nostalgic. Growing up in a house with Gen X siblings I heard this on repeat from a pretty young age (like 5-7). That opening definitely has the feels. First 3 tracks are excellent. The remaining are mid mostly.
Music it good but I’ve never enjoyed Neal’s vocals. 🤷♂️
Yea I like this one. Id heard it before but not a lot. I’d listen again.
A classic
Not bad. Surprised that it was as good as it was.
Not bad actually. I like it.
I met a little girl - corny and lame. Probably would be a 4 star album if only the lyrics and topic weren’t so dull and lame. Great music and vocals though.
Album is lit 🔥
Yea this is good. One I’ve never heard and really good. Thanks.
It’s the Cheetos cheetah performing an after school music special.
Yea this rocks. I like it.
Meh.
Boring. Noise. Meh.
It’s starts out pretty good. A little corny and dated in spots (i.e. la-la lies) and quite a few are just meh to lame and boring. Favorite track: the ox
Yea I dig it.
Actually didn’t hate it. Not bad. Listenable
It’s ok. Not an album I’d always put on but probably would have been part of my late teens skateboarding rotation had I discovered them back then 🤷♂️
Can’t help but hear chef from South Park lol. But good album none the less.
This was pretty good. Maybe not quite 4 stars good.
I mean it’s Elvis. And a classic from him.
I’d heard this before. Yea it’s good.
Way too dated for me to like. The orchestral and choir sounds are just soooo old sounding. His voice is great and so is his piano when you can hear it.
This isn’t good. Live recordings (with rare exceptions) aren’t albums.
Rocks pretty hard. Solid
It’s Bowie. Some great songs here. Overall a 4 out of 5 probably.
Not bad actually. Pretty enjoyable listening considering how dated it sounds (even compared to 1964).
Pretty good. Never heard them before.
Yea this is good.
Yea man. Good Springsteen here. Finally some 80s music that doesn’t fully suck.
Reviews of elevator and hold music accurate. Not great Jazz. No idea why this is here. 🤷♂️
This is probably my favorite of his. Having said that he still can’t sing. With average vocals this might be a 5. With Neal’s? A 3
Crap. Might have been listenable but for the vocals. I made it through once song fully (sally go round). All others were utterly unlistenable.
Great album for the most part. Was pretty grossed out by the dick sucking skit (those sounds 🤮).
So nostalgic for me. I really wanted to give this 5 but alas it’s a solid 4. Still very much enjoy this though.
I just don’t like these guys. Did not like this and it’s arguably their best album. 🤷♂️
Enjoyed it.
It’s ok. A little too raw and grungy for my tastes though.
🤘
This was actually good and listenable. I know I’m shocked too.
Sure I like it.
It’s ok. Better than many of the 80s albums on this list so far. Don’t like it. Don’t hate it.
Amazing. And what a closing track 🤯
Meh pretty boring mostly with like 1 track (the forest) that I sorta enjoy.
This is ok. The harmonies are actually quite good. I probably would never choose to put this on though 🤷♂️
This is pretty good. I like it. A great opener too. So iconic and recognizable at this point.
Pretty good. Wow track 3 sounds like a chili peppers song (but better as the peppers suck ). Obviously Epic is super recognizable. Excellent cover of sabbath.
This is totally mid. Doesn’t suck. Isn’t great.
A collection of songs that make you hate Christmas time. Together at last is one shitty “album”.
I really like this album. Have for many years. Maybe even love it.
From the era of punk that was probably the best. I dig it.
Pretty meh to not like so far. The mixing isn’t good on the first half. Also very long. Also another live album that doesn’t deserve attention amongst album albums 🙄. I actually didn’t like this and I liked it too. Some great live songs. Some meh and boring ones too.
Strong start but in the end gave me high hopes that left me disappointed throughout the rest of the album. Mid.
I fully expected to hate this based on the few reviews I glanced at, the description and the album art. I didn’t though. But I also didn’t think it was great, good or excellent. It’s between a 2 and a 3 for me 🤷♂️
Ok so I expected to hate this after the first track repeated its lame self for the 100th time but this ended up being way good. Maybe a 4? Not sure 🤷♂️
This is ok. I kinda liked it but probably not 4 liked.
Pretty boring. One decently good song. The rest are not good minus a couple of sound effects buried within a few that I liked.
This is pretty good. But I have to dock it a star for the vocals and the length.
I like this. Then it’s strange and boring. Then I like it. 🤷♂️. Also it gets docked a star for its length (too long)
I’ve maintained for around 20 years now that Billy Joel is terrible (minus 1 song). This album actually doesn’t suck. Some good stuff here and doesn’t sound super dated like his later stuff does.
This isn’t bad. I thought it might be based on that album cover 😂. But didn’t amaze me.
Vocals pretty good. Music good too. But overall not gripping me enough to be good to great.
Pretty good. Not into it enough to warrant a 4 though.
Yea this is quite good. Excellent piano too. But overall it got a little boring by the second half and didn’t really enjoy it all that much by the end. Didn’t dislike. But didn’t like all that much either. Album cover is sick though.
Ok to pretty ok at times. But Don’t is a terrible track. That and a few other noise sections might drop this to a 2 for me.
Based on a few reviews I sampled I thought this was gonna suck. But it doesn’t. Good vocals. Music good too. Overall pretty good just not sure it’s “like it” (i.e 4 stars) territory for me.
First track sounds like the musical child of Pink Floyd, Bob Dylan, and the Allman Brothers Band. I dig the guitar on the first track. Wild West End sounds a lot like one of their other songs.
I wanted so bad for this to be a 5 that I’ve never heard before. Then a 4. But I don’t know. There’s only like 2 or 3 here that I really like. Is that enough for a 4?
They’re ok.
Baba is a 5 star song. And I will always think of Jamie Thomas’s part from Mislead Youth when Baba plays. But what about the rest of the album? The next two are fine. The song is over is 😬 though. Same with Getting in Tune. Not consistently good. Hard to justify a 4 overall for only one great song 🤷♂️
I dig her bluesy groves man.
One of the OGs (technically Patton, House, and Johnson are but Muddy is nearly there). Just for what he gave us and who he influenced he gets 4 stars. Plus this sounds damn good for being a live recording from 1960. That would have been amazing to see live.
One of my favorite rap albums. A masterpiece.
An excellent album and a definite must listen. Excellent vocals.
Finally some 80s pop that doesn’t suck. Give me Cyndi over Madonna any day!
Boring. Terrible vocals. Hate this.
Not bad. But hasn’t aged well IMO … a little too cheesy for me.
If Kind of Blue is a 5 this is a 3
I've listened to this one a lot over the years. Question is, do I love it? Yes. Yes I do. Excellent album. We are North Americans!
Side 1 is mid. Side 2 sends this down the drain.
This shit sucks. If I had NOT heard this before dying I definitely would have been better off. 100% shows the shitty bias of the list - this group has 5 albums on this list. And OMG that guitar work is so bad.
Album sucks with 2 decent songs. 🙄
OMG from the first measure I knew I didn’t need to hear this before I die. What a hot mess. This list is so shite. I’m sorry there’s not over 1000 albums you have to hear. There’s probably 100 that you should listen to no matter what and then whatever you like. And then you should probably listen to a fuck ton of classical/baroque/romantic music. Not all these shite UK albums. Sheesh.
I love Johnny Cash and can respect his playing shoes for inmates but I’m not crazy about the recording and set here.
Strong start and I thought it had a chance. Then it just repeated itself and dragged on much too long. Nah.
An absolute classic. Great music and awesome vocals.
They sound like REM and then later sound like Grateful Dead. Interesting stuff here and probably needs another full listen from me.
Sounds a lot like Zeppelin which I guess makes sense since they both have the yardbirds in their ancestry and they both cover American blues songs. Not bad. Needs another listen probably.
Perhaps my favorite Stones album. Many great songs - opening and closing tracks being my favorite.
This actually isn't that bad. It's much better than the cover would suggest haha. She has a good voice too. There's a place for honky tonk country.
Nothing impressed me all that much. Perhaps I shouldn't listen to the album of the day while trying to work.
Oh what’s this? Another one hit wonder group from the UK? No way I can’t believe it! Like someone else here said, there’s no Tool on the list but there’s like 100 of these. The list is shite (this was album 215 for me). 1 star - terrible vocals. And no, I didn’t need to hear this before I die.
A near perfect pop album with wonderful vocals. Adele can get it.
I only thought the 2nd half of track 5 was any good.
I liked it then I was bored by the repetitions. But I really wanted to like it more. What are you gonna do?
This isn’t that awful.
No thanks.
I wanted to like this. But his voice just isn’t good and I found it too long. His lyrics aren’t bad at least. But just a little too twangy country for me.
This actually doesn’t suck.
A classic. Excellent album. Thinking about Adele’s 25 album I rated not too long ago. I gave it a five. If it’s a five then this is too.
Oh I love this one.
Wow. This is just awful and unlistenable.
This is ok. Might deserve another listen even.
Started out good/ok (3 stars) but then dragged on a bit too long and got pretty boring. Might have dropped it a star for me.
I like this guy but I’m a big Guthrie fan so yea. I think I heard better stuff from him but this one is ok.
Man this kinda sucks. And it’s too cheesy and he can’t sing. A few of the songs are pretty ok though but not enough.
Not a very cohesive or solid album. Some cool riffs. But overall mid.
She has a great voice. Almost enough to bump this up a star but overall the country isn’t all that good. But her voice is great.
Somehow this manages to be cheesy 80s (at times) and ska (like mighty mighty mighty bosstones). Not into this. Super skippable.
I love classic Springsteen. He has better albums though.
This is fine. She sounds a lot like dido or something.
Yea man. This is the mid to late 70s slash early 80s punk I used to love when I was like 18. Raw. Hard to rate - strong 3 if not a 4 ...
Just kind of faded into the background while I started my day and I can't really remember much.
Their debut and probably their best - at least my favorite from them. So much better than their next one (that was on the list earlier).
Yea not bad.
Has some pretty decent guitar moments. Possibly one of the better mid 60s albums on here (that’s not the Beatles). Could be a 4 upon more listens.
Ugh. Couldn’t stand most of this.
Mid at best with come catchy songs for sure. But, the people on here crying about cultural appropriation are hilarious - ship has sailed schmohawks, we're all tired of hearing it.
ABBA has a few hits here and there that I can stomachs in small doses. This is too much abba.
Love it. One of their more underrated albums IMO.
It’s funny, this would have been junior year in high school for me but this was not even close to my radar back then. But of course I heard most of them anyways. Cheesy AF lyrics man … I don’t know about this one.
Very good vocals here. Overall kind of boring with a few enjoyable songs. A lot of covers so not really an album IMO but credit for bringing genuine African music to a western audience and bonus for great vocals.
This is a pretty decent album from him but he has better ones later. Too long though.
I really enjoyed this. I love most music out of New Orleans though so yea. Might be a 5 ….if the start were as strong as the end it probably would be.
This was actually enjoyable. I don’t know if it’s a 4 star album for me but close.
Nothing of interest. And grating on the senses. I do not care for this at all and never wanna hear it again.
Not bad. Listenable at least.
Some enjoyable tracks and a few that I disliked.
Vocals alone drop this down to a 1-2 star album. Add the pretentious new renaissance style and it drops it even more. Not for me. What a stupid list - shit like this is grounds to leave. This made my wife nauseous and she’s not preg
Nothing grabbed me here. Its just ok.
This is ok. Played it a few times while working and it kinda faded into the background. Nothing grabbed me.
Al Green is one of the smoothest (except for Donny Hathaway - who is suspiciously missing from this list). This album is t his best IMO but still listenable.
Yea man - some good poppy shit right here.
We don’t need 4 albums from these guys. Why do we need another, lesser Beatles?
I think the best of the solo albums from the Beatles members. But damn why do I remember this being so much better than it is? Have my tastes changed that much since last listen? 🤷♂️
Shit. But I guess they knew that when they shat it out their asses.
I really like his songwriting for the most part. But he cannot sing! And this album is quite boring and what’s up with all that kazoo (or rubber band) sound on this? How did he record all these songs with his voice? And he has 5 albums on this list!
Yea man I dig the late 80s hip hop stuff. This is right there with it.
This thing slaps
Bombs over Baghdad is a 5 star track … not sure about the rest of the album though 🤷♂️. Also love that Chappelle quotes it in his black Bush skit 😂.
Much better than expected. The talking voice actually works here unlike his earlier albums.
I know that I’m supposed to like Neal Young and all, but oh my god his voice is so aaawwwwwful. Barney Stinson was right, he does sound like an old lady with vocal paralysis.
I’m pretty tired of these guys these days but I think the blame lies with Apple Music’s algo that keeps recommending them. I think it’s his voice. I’ll try not to hold that against this albums listen. There are songs and some riffs that make this a 4 star album. But it gets docked a star for the vocals.
This is a solid 3 maybe a 4 if I gave more time to it.
Classic. A strong 4. Might be a 5 - a little too long though.
First half or so pretty good but second half or so not as much. Now that I’m 43 I guess I have to like this now (I do go the most part).
I wanted to skip too many for this to be a 3. I love Guthrie but I don’t like this guy much.
Obviously this has some catchy poppy stuff on it. Having said that, it’s not for me. A little cheesy.
Their 17th album?! Well can’t accuse them for not trying. Sooo feckin cheesy. Are you for reals - take a load off your feet?? Overall not good but exceeded my very low expectations.
Mid. Had potential it felt like at the start. But mid for me.
A great debut. This is punk rock.
I was surprised to learn that these are all originals - no covers. There are better singers singing her songs - making them better. But good songs none the less. Don’t love her voice - but mostly great songs here with few exceptions (cough cough Tapestry cough).
This surprised me (not that it was amazing). Don’t expect much but I actually liked it more than those expectations.
Surprised by this. I have heard maybe half these elsewhere but this album was actually good. Sounds like the Beatles, some Queen in there, and others.
Groovy and strong start. But then never goes anywhere. Mid since it did have some decent sounds on the front end.
I was 12 and I rode my bike to media play to buy my first album on CD with my paper route money. This album has aged like fine wine. Still excellent.
Pretty solid debut. Not too bad considering the year and time and all that. A lot of what feels like covers of Mississippi delta OGs.
I can see how this a hipster favorite. Vocals are just too boring and quiet for me. I did enjoy some of the music though. 2-3 stars.
Classic from that horny, talented mofo. Still sounds great. And the closing track is amazing. His guitar and vocals man.
No thanks. Boring. Annoying. Tries to go somewhere interesting then just lets you down.
How have I never hear of this? I reckon I wasn't around "prog rock" in 2003. Interesting and I dig it. Might be the first 5 (day 284) on the list that I’d never heard before. Solid 4.
Mid.
I kinda like this. More than their newer stuff for sure.
Very good album. Actually hadn’t heard of her. But similar to others that I enjoy.
Excellent album from 70s Bowie.
I can dig
Wu tang clan ain’t nothin to fuck with
Doesn’t feel much like an album. Riffing on old blues songs is cool and all but kinda feel aimless and not albumy. Still an easy 4.
This shits good.
Excellent. Of course a classic. Might be a 5 if it wasn’t for the fluff.
I dig most of Waylon’s stuff. This is good too.
This was much better than expected. As someone who loves Joni Mitchell I could hear influences on her here. Interesting. Would likely give it another listen.
Quite good. Enjoyable for sure.
Wow. Just wow. Such a terrible start. And it gets worse.
This is good but not great. I might need to give it another listen. 🤔 but too long and too many skits.
This album sucks- has a few sounds here and there that are pleasant but no. This shit sucks.
I don’t know if there’s a Dylan album under 4 stars. This is solid. Not the best but good. Pretty crazy this was his 15th (and only 1976!).
Strong start. But all downhill from there mostly. The pairing of the music and the vocals just doesn’t work for me on every track except the first.
Solid rock album with a few classics. I’m judging the music and not the people behind the music guys. It’s like hating on Wagner (who wrote some of the most amazing western music ever) cuz he was an anti-semite and was Hitlers favorite composer. It is possible to separate that from the music. 🙄
Terrible start - and doesn’t really improve much. Is the whole thing just noise? Why was this so big? I don’t get it. Sounds like shit - Who mixed it? 🤷♂️
This isn’t at all anywhere close to the first album from them. So much so it might get docked an extra star. Not good. Boring and long.
What in the good hell is this? AND it’s over an hour?! Do I really have to sit through this????? 😩
It’s ok.
Feeling this one is super overrated. It’s like they went back 20 years and stole all the American music from that time and before. Not great. Might dock it a star for the dated, thieving.
Man I totally forgot about these guys. This thing is good.
I mean, the rip is a classic and has been a part of the rotation for a long while now. But the rest of the album (sans a few songs) isn’t very good.
Funkay. And very good.
Would be good if the vocals weren’t so bad. 2 stars
Mid to no like. Not for me. 80s pop is very hit or miss. Mostly miss.
Best part of this album is the cover.
Started out a 5 star but couldn’t sustain.
Yea man.
No. Just no.
This is good. But dropping a star for length. Way too long.
Strange indeed haha. Sarcastic and at times funny but overall it wears in me and the vocals are just bad.
This is pretty good. I liked it enough to go look at their other albums and put their most recent one on as well. Pretty good. Probably helped to listen in the car during the commute.
Oh I really like her recent stuff from the show Bad Sisters (also great show).
Grungy, raw, and it works. I dig it.
These guys are good.
Oh man this is one of the hardest to rate yet. It’s both incredible and incredibly awful. I loved it and hated it. 🤔
Mostly not good. A few moments were ok.
Very good album.
A classic. And my birth year too (Bonus).
Mid.
Wasn’t crazy about this. Wasn’t bad tho.
This is a solid album from them. Their first really good album IMO. But since Revolver is better this one isn’t quite 5 stars I don’t think. Great though.
Not very good. Her voice is not my cuppa.
Not into it. There’s a reason disco died.
Good. Pretty wild the songs and the setting.
Actually liked this.
Alright
This was actually quite good. I enjoyed it and would allow it to play again. 👍
It’s alright. Nothing special here.
