I enjoy Can in general, but tend to prefer the motorik beat side of Krautrock, and because of this lean into the songs where they hit a groove rather than a freak-out. Also, whenever I listen to the song Mushroom, I'm reminded that the main guitar lick sounds like the Monkees' Not Your Steppin' Stone.

I do really enjoy this album, but kind of got burnt out from all the radio hits back when it was new. I much prefer side 2.

My metal days are over, but this one still really holds up.

There are some good tracks, but I just can't get into the general Big Beat sound and because of that, don't really like any of the radio hits. I found myself enjoying the remixes on the deluxe version more than the full album.

The well known songs are great, but overall the album is a little lackluster.

Oddly this is the album that really got me into David Bowie and his full catalog. I knew all the hits, but Blackstar really got my attention right before he passed away. This one is always in my top three Bowie albums.

It does follow in the style of music I usually enjoy, but unfortunately nothing really stuck out.

I love this album.

While i always enjoyed the radio hits, I really got into Tears for Fears in my late 20s when they reunited for the album Everybody Loves a Happy Ending. I used to think songs from the big chair was hits and filler, but now I enjoy the whole album as one consistent statement.

Excellent choice for Halloween.

I was surprised to learn that I was already familiar with a lot of the songs on this album. Overall it's a great album, but I still prefer the live version of the title track.

It was fine - I like disco and the title track is great, but the rest just feels kind of thrown together as a sub-part Chic album.

I do enjoy select Dire Straits songs, but a whole album is too much for me.

I really loved AM when it first came out and it's still my favorite Wilco album. I wasn't as excited about Being There when it came out and didn't really listen to it much. Now, it really holds up and foreshadows what Jeff Tweedy was going to do over the next 30 years with the band.

I do enjoy bubble gum pop, and even love the first Spice Girls album, but this album sucked.

As a fan of ELO I will say that this album is great and worth listening to... though it's a big uneven with it's length and there are better ELO albums that could have been included in this list instead.

I love, love, love this album. And it's fun to return to.

I'm not a Courtney Love hater and every Hole album has a few songs that i really like. But as a whole (ha ha) their albums aren't that great.

Here's one that I knew I loved, but hadn't listened to it forever and had forgotten what songs were on it.

This is a great representation of white, bar blues that I don't like.

I really tried and while I respect Bruce tremendously as an artist, I do not enjoy his music.

This was the first CD I purchased after getting a CD player in Jr. High. It's still a solid album and there are songs I really like, but the production sounds dated. I appreciate the experimentation they did with the instrumental interludes and use of dulcimer.

My favorite Bowie album

I love Johnny Cash, but was kind of surprised to see American IV on this list. While his version of Hurt is amazing and a great example of an artist taking ownership of an existing song, I much prever American III, 2, and 1.
