Excellent album - really impactful and atmospheric songs 8.5/9 out of 10 so a very strong 4

Not my thing, but great album

Good enjoyed it

Good enjoyed it

Great voice and impactful lyrics - would definitely listen again

Never heard of Fiona Apple before - really enjoyed the album though

Nice voice, found the songs a bit dresry

Decent easy to listen to middle of the road album would have given 3.5 but have gone 4

Lovely voice - really like son of a preacher man and windmills of my mind is best version I’ve heard of that, but the rest of the songs were unexceptional 3/4 - went 3

The model is a great track, but I found the rest a bit samey - not my thing - don’t really get it

Was familiar with many of the tracks 4-5 singles I think - enjoyed the album - wonder if I’d have enjoyed it if not heard before

Had this the day after Ozzy’s death - not really listened to Black Sabbath (or metal generally outside of the big hits Paranoid for example), but actually thought it was pretty good - hovering between 3 and 4, but given the timing gone 4

It’s an ok album - all songs are listenable, but just ok - nothing standout throughout

Not my favourite genre, but keen to give it a go - many of the tracks on the album have a similar construction and rhythm - certainly hasn’t left me keen to explore their wider catalogue

Pleasant easy listening

Good album - all tracks decent - Mr Brightside suffers from over exposure, but shouldn’t undermine what a great song it is

Enjoyed this as something I would never normally listen to (which is the beauty of the random album generator) - don’t think I’d revisit though

Struggled to find the complete album, but listened to their “hits” on Spotify which covered most of the tracks, plus a few others and tried to pick off the rest on YouTube - quite enjoyed it!

Great album - No duds - Little Red Corvette and 1999 really good songs - would have probably gone 9 if out of 10 - settled on 4 - was really good but not 5 out of 5.

A little bit middle of the road soft rock - beige

Great voice - LOTS of album - 6 discs - last disc purely musical (no Ella singing).

Nice voice - chilled out sound - I really enjoyed the first two tracks (the hits) and Sally - the rest fine, relaxing listen.

Really good album - strong tracks throughout - makes me want to revisit their other albums

Not my thing, but quite enjoyed it initially, Ace of Spades is obviously a classic, but it got a bit repetitive towards the end - get why it’s popular especially amongst teens and young men, much better than AC/DC in my view

Actually enjoyed much more than I expected to - good feel good fun

Great voice - enjoyable half an hour or so

Metal not my thing, but enjoying listening to stuff I wouldn’t usually - didn’t like enough to search out more stuff, but not bad at all

Another metal album - fine, but just not my sort of thing - not a bad album - just all feel very similar

Not heard of these before but really enjoyed - felt like a 7/10, but erred on the positive side and given 4 as enjoyed despite not being familiar with any of the tracks - so suspect will enjoy more if listen again

Would not have chosen to listen to this, but great album

Good album - enjoyed it - thought China Girl was an excellent version - just going to research when this album was released and therefore who did it first - Iggy did it first 1977(him and Bowie co-wrote)!

Never listened to before, but enjoyed his distinctive melancholy style

Excellent album - really impactful and atmospheric songs 8.5/9 out of 10 so a very strong 4

Great voice and energy

Good to listen to different stuff, but definitely not my thing

Enjoyable and interesting album

Folky rock a decent listen

Very different - felt almost like classical music - really enjoyed

Really interesting album - not familiar with John Cale at alll previously

Great album - gritty, bleak social commentary, but full of energy and fun. A strong 9 out of 10, but as out of 5 giving it the full 5 stars

Decent enough - a couple of tracks I really enjoyed - Freedom and what’s golden.

Very easy to listen to - pleasant way to pass 3/4 of an hour

Mellow interesting album - not heard of them before this - reminded me a little of the eels

Good fun - decent tracks - enjoyed, but not sure I’d revisit

Some of it is a bit teensge angst/politics from a middle aged man, but overall enjoyed - hard not to compare to the Smiths which are different level

Nice to listen to something from a very different era - enjoyed albeit not something I’d go search out

Decent enough - enjoyed. Doesn’t seem like a timeless classic though!

Hauntingly brilliant - really enjoyed

Not my sort of thing - found it a bit dull

Good Indie album very much of its time - thoroughly enjoyable listen

Really enjoyed - not my chosen genre, but really good tunes

Enjoyed it - not my scene, but appreciated it

Great album

Great album - very distinctive style and voice

Enjoyed this - good strong songs and story telling

I want to be your dog is decent - the rest are a little less tuneful

Decent enough - not surprisingly not dissimilar to the Smiths, but lacking a bit of something

Vibrant music - decent listen

Decent album - some really good tracks - mainly Disc 1

Decent enough - didn’t really grab me

40 mins of joyful music - wasn’t aware of the film/story so didn’t understand the significance of the pieces, will have to look up

Really enjoyed - not a big blues fan as a rule, but great album

Ok - but a bit disappointing and not particularly inspiring

Great - if you listen to the version that has the disc 2 the live recording of Come on Eileen I really enjoyed that as well

Good simple music - really enjoyed

Not a band I’ve ever listened to before and didn’t think it was my thing. However quite enjoyed and given not familiar with I think 7/10 should translate to a 4

Not my thing really, but as with most of these albums - enjoyed the fact I am listening to a breadth of music I wouldn’t otherwise dig out

Not a R&B fan, but listenable - very much a 5/10, but will give a 3 star

Ok - not a bad listen just not really my thing

Decent - interesting sounds and distinctive voice

An ok album - found it a bit uninspiring

Decent album enjoyed - really like the song Monkey gone to heaven

Interesting album - opening track 20 mins on a 40 min album.

Very different to what I’d normally listen to - raw and punky - enjoyed - not sure I’d search out again though

Great album - pleasantly surprised

Full of energy - a showman - not the greatest songs, but imagine to see that live would have been something special

Not great for me - bit low energy was expecting some disco beat and umph!

Enjoyed the hits, but found the rest a bit uninspiring

Decent enough - not someone I’d look to explore further, but enjoyed nevertheless

Didn’t know much about Flaming Lips assumed some kind of rock band. Wasn’t expecting much, but really enjoyed - wasn’t expecting a futuristic journey through robot wars in an electronic/acoustic musical - odd but interesting and well worth a listen

Not bad - excepting Message didn’t grab me though

The hits are excellent - the rest ok - overall pretty good

Really enjoyed - nice chilled album

Interesting album a couple of stand outs - similar sound running throughout most of other tracks

Interesting - enjoyed it - would never have found and listened to this without the 1001 album generator

Superb - every song a classic

Struggled to get into it - not awful, but definitely wouldn’t return to this

Great album - some very familiar songs, but lots I’d not heard before, loved the folky sound

Found this to be ok - not a genre I typically would listen to

Every song is excellent - amazing voice

Good album - a bit of it’s time, but still some great hits

Decent album - the hits stand out, but all good

Excellent hard to decide between 4 and 5 out if 10

Really enjoyed - old school

Good fun

Enjoyed - pleasant sound, distinctive voice, no real standouts, but hangs together as a decent album

Enjoyed - but didn’t grab me - perhaps one to revisit

Not bad - punky, interesting listen, but won’t be revisiting

Enjoyable - pleasant simple songs, not the more sophisticated sound of Pet Sounds

American girl is a decent song, but the rest was a little beige rock

Something very different to the usual UK/US sounds - really enjoyed would listen again/explore other stuff by Koffi Olomidé

Good album - nice easy to get into tracks

Couldn’t get excited by it - samey middle of the road “rock”

Great album - Sir Duke is a classic

Ok - a bit different, but not something I’d go back to

Ok - less impactful than earlier albums - felt a bit more hum drum

Not bad - hits decent, rest ok

Not bad - good “fun” - bit of its time
