First listened to in 1976. Post Eno. The Thrill of It All. Andy McKay !!!!

a bit droning. not for me.

seems like a wannabe album. not bad but there's much stronger similar sounds both from around that time and more current.

Black Sabbath close enough to Heavy Metal that it's not entirely fair to rate it since I asked to exclude the category. Like most of the category, this record is overweight, indulgent. At its best moments it touches on blues influenced rock but I'd rather the Yardbirds by 100000000%. Wasp et al so far is the best selection although it's also too long and indulgent

A sharp, clean album. A throw back that throws forward.

raw power = pure rock and roll

Bluesbreakers .... Yardbirds .... definitely a great era for English rnr

a mix of late electro new wave and 90s alternative

Who doesn't love the Smiths although the first album might be preferred over The Queen is Dead

it's very difficult to understand why this is included in the 1001 best albums of all time. it's average and makes me wish to listen to throbbing gristle. much more like this and the game' over

fela!

Strikes as a transition album from There Goes Rhymin' Simon / Still Crazy After All These Years to Graceland.

so so ... and how can Punk have all these instruments

wish i liked this more

just feels a little dated

another one that is very hard to understand how it is one of the 1001

An uneven pop experience - Shout, Everybody Wants to Rule the World) are wonders - the rest so so

can't possibly be one of the top 1001 records
