Creedence Clearwater RevivalTwo inordinately long tracks on an otherwise short album. It's an OK listen, but distinctly what I'd expect to get from a random CCR recommendation. Is "My Baby Left Me" just "That's Alright Mama"?

I didn't need 11 minutes of slide guitar. I can't think of a single song on this album that didn't go on for at least 2 minutes too long. It's a good metaphor for the rest of the album.
This is the easiest listening Who album I've come across yet.
It's a lot better than the major Bowie hits that get played.
As middle of the road as rock music comes.
It's the most intelligent pop album of the decade and still demonstrates merit in 2025, but at the same time, it's mired in early 2000 production and musical convention somewhat. It's hard to deny that Winehouse was a brilliant artist though.
Iconic? Maybe. Painfully generic in 2025? Absolutely.
This was probably an incredible gig.
So often albums fail to properly capture and evoke the spirit of the era in which they were recorded. Not the case here.
A crime that this album is best known for its incredibly cliche title track, honestly.
This sounds like the mid-90s.
The longest 34-minute album I've ever heard. Some tempo would really have changed things up.
I always knew I'd grown out of grunge when I was about 15. Hearing the so-called 'cerebral' Nirvana album, I am now totally sure of this.
