Very British. From first impression of track one, I can definitely see where future project came from. 100% not for me. Was kinda painful to listen to

Oof... So while I'll agree that there is some damn fine musicianship here, it's still disco. It's very disco. And while there are gems in the genre, by and large disco sucks. Seriously some great playing going on, but... nope.

Mid 80s. Dominated the light rock radio, and I get why. Smooth, chill, jazzy pop. Is it something I would have picked out to listen or would pick out to on a regular basis? No probably not. But there's are some jams. Bassist straight going off on tracks like Hang On to Your Love.

Funky! 70s R&B cooool.

I'll admit that my exposure to Bob Marley is pretty much limited to his Greatest Hits album. I can see why this hits hard with some people. It's kinda the definition of crunchy. It's good, just not my flavor.

It's the South Park goth kids in all the best ways. Post-punk, new wave. Arrangements feel simple and layered swimming in plate reverb. Melodies that stick to you like peanut butter on the roof of your mouth. Makes me want to get facial piercings, dye my hair black, and goth dance in the parking lot behind the gym.

I can see and appreciate this other side of the 70s reggae scene. It's ok. Doesn't really speak to me. To me, middling and forgettable.

Not the greatest Led Zeppelin album, in my opinion. But it is damn good.

I can see why this is a classic for some folks. It's Morrisey but thankfully not a solo project. I'll admit to my fandom of some music that gets a pretentious and self indulgent. And thankfully it's reasonably reigned in here. My mouth has been soured by solo Morrisey. But this isn't really for me

I was working in a record store at the time this came out. It was at a time of musical discovery and taste shaping for me. Albums I wouldn't have normally listened to by that point were now being found. While this isn't one of those albums I found at that point, other bands of similar vein, from Portishead to The Prodigy, were definitely in the mix. I hadn't heard this particular album before today. I'm most familiar with 2002s, A Hundred Days Off. I dig it. The layering here is super cool. While not everything works, it holds its own for keeping a vibe going. Just what you want from good electronica.

Q and Michael defining 1982. Solid stuff

World music. As "world music" as that genre comes. It's not bad. But not something I'll be looking to listen to again. Not my cup of tea. Honestly closer to a 2.5 for me.

I was never fully exposed to Queen outside of radio singles and the occasional deep cut. Queen II is the reason to go down this journey. I'm giving it a 4, but it may change as I listen to it a few more times. The production is huge! The arrangements are intricate and developed. Arena prog rock finding it's way into becoming one of the biggest bands in the world.

Oh damn! This... mmmm. Some good blues right here!

It's what people who don't like mid-70s British prog rock think mid-70s British prog rock sounds like. It's ok. It's got it's moments. I'm a big fan of the era. But I find myself not getting the scratch my prog itch needs.

Not my taste. Blondie had a couple of hits from this album, but I found myself just waiting for it to be done with the rest of the tracks.

Oh, The Chronic! Helped define early 90s hip hop. It hasn't necessarily aged well, particularly in it's lyrical content, but it was so influential in developing the West Coast sound. I'm having a hard time rating this one. It's not as good as 2001. 3 stars I think.

I dig this era of Rush. All the way through it's a radio friendly prog that hooks me in. This is the era I'd have loved to have seen them live.

Rewards those who actively listen. It's good background jazz, but the musicality is straight up great.

It's... Interesting. 60s British psychedelic rock. Like other reviews, not sure how it landed at the top of the charts. Some of the tracks have some pretty awful mixes. Just wildly unbalanced. The music isn't bad, but it's not something I'll probably go back to . Weak 3.

It's a beautiful album. The music is interesting and the vocals are intriguing. I like it, but I'm order to get 4 stars, I need to want to seek it out again, and it's just not for me. High 3.5

Decent album. Nothing stood out for me really. I did dig the lofi-ness of it. Felt raw but almost in amateurish or naive way. Songwriting was decent. Reminded me of something Wes Anderson or the Cohen brothers might use in a movie.

Killer jams. Great old 70s funk. It kicks off right with The Cisco Kid and keeps going. Dig this album. But going to the "will I seem this out to listen again?" Probably not, but I did enjoy it. 3.5

Hey hey momma, said the way you move, gonna make you sweat, gonna make you groove. It's at that point you're led into a masterpiece of 70s stadium rock. The album is varied and layered in dynamics and style. Musicianship is on point. There's really no lull throughout. Definitely my favorite Zeppelin album by far.
