Production and vocals are phenomenal, tracks flow together seamlessly. 1st half of the album is the standout to me on first listen.
Mad, Rise, and Cranes in the Sky are my most memorable tracks
Good not great, didn’t feel like it had enough to stand out amongst other rock albums from that time for me. My first time really listening to The Kinks, will probably have to revisit this to fully appreciate and understand the labum
Amazing vocals obviously, production compliments Adele well and allows her to be the star of the album the whole way through. Powerful start to the Album with the first 2 tracks, strong ending too. Rumor Has It is the standout for me, so many layers sonically that all come together beautifully, great energy, love Adele’s shit talking on the song. Definitely some songs I will come back to, but I’m not sure there is enough sauce outside of Adele’s stellar vocal performance to bring me back to the album as a whole too often.
CCR rocks and the album rocks. Such a fun listen the whole way through, it keeps me chooglin. Short album leaving me wishing it was longer. Everything about it screams CCR. Vocal performance is fantastic as always with CCR, guitar tone is so good it feels palpable, bass in Graveyard Train slowly chugs along endlessly just like the title of the song
Thought it was good. Didn’t really get into it too much. Will need to revisit, just wasn’t in the mood for this album when listening
Album is a classic for a reason, the highs are incredible and rightfully iconic. Not much else to say other than a few songs in the middle dragged a tiny bit for me
A CLASSIC. Just an amazing coming of age album. Vocals, beats, lyrics all superb. Evey song flows so nicely into the next. Skits are great and add to the story. Such an impactful album too, so much buzz when it came out and is still talked about now as one of the greatest rap albums ever. Everything about it is so good, I love it. One of the albums that really cemented my love for music, so it holds a special place in my heart. Sing About Me, I’m Dying of Thirst might just be K.dots best song. Not sure what else to say other than thank you and I you love Kendrick Lamar.
Cool beats and great flow. Wish I knew what he was saying but ik he spittin. Very enjoyable listen, seems a little ahead of it’s time for a jazz rap album. Definitely feels like 90s hip hop but something about it still feels fresh today. Something I probably wouldn’t have found on my own
Vocal performance is amazing and so is the opening to the album. Wasn’t expecting this much texture from the production. Every song is atmospheric and I love it.
Just got into the second half of the album and I have no idea what’s happening anymore. All I know is it rocks
This is a solid pop album, that being said I am not the biggest fan of pop so I didn’t find this album super interesting. Her vocals are great but some aspects of the album just give generic pop vibes which is fine, I think it sounds good but I feel like some parts of the album or missing the sauce and get a little stale. Definitely some good grooves and great moments, but Im not sure this is an album I will revisit often. I think 1hr 15mins is a little long and could have been cut down a bit. I feel like I am writing a negative review but I actually enjoyed this album more than I expected. The r&b elements are really enjoyable and well done. Her girl boss attitude is great too and exudes confidence. Latin influence is a great touch when leaned into
Short and concise. Enjoyable whole way through. Not many thoughts on after my first listen. Does what it sets out to do and does it well
I love Sly and the Family Stone. Grooves always hit, vocals are always great and layered great. That being said I think this album is a little disjointed and is missing a bit of a sense of cohesion to me. Still a great album that I really enjoyed
Not sure if it’s my vibe, but started sounding a lot better after a beer. Guitar tone is great too. Had a fun time listening, really liked the middle/2nd half. Some other parts just didn’t do it for me
Not really for me, got a little bored while listening.
Liked it much more after another listen, explored some topics lyrically that were abead of its time
Not really for me, didn’t feel cohesive. I thought the musical and vocal performances were good individually but didn’t work for me when put together
Classic, MJ, still incredibly iconic
It’s fine, doesn’t stand out to me, but doesn’t do anything that’s bad
Fun listen, not many thoughts after my first listen
Easy listening album, sitar tone is lovely. Great cover of Light my Fire (Jose Feliciano’s is still my favorite). Did not finish - like what I heard but wasn’t engaged enough to make it to the end
Me likey. Gets me moving and feeling like a robot
Love the opening, I’m hooked. I never knew Blitzkrieg Bop was a Ramones song. I like it. It rocks. Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue is an all time song name. I love a sub 30min album that still feels complete and cohesive. So much fun, perfect for a Friday! I don’t listen to punk so this statement has no weight but this might be the perfect punk album for me
Love the intro. Probably my favorite era of Kanye production, I love the sample and background vocals. Not sure if the vocals and production always work together as cohesively as I want tho
Fun, groovy bass lines. Good not great for me
Mixed feelings, didn’t like the beginning much but started vibing the farther in I got
I am experienced. Shout out Jimbo
Lovely album. Shhh/Peaceful didn’t stand out as much to me but still enjoyed it and thought the name was fitting. In a Silent Way is great. It ebbs and flows and it’s energy varies throughout. The changes don’t feel out of place. The beginning is beautiful and gentle, the middle get more energetic and groovy, and it ends with a similar gentleness to the beginning. Wonderful jazz fusion album that I am stuck between a 4 and a 5.
Stevie Wonder is so goated. Superstition is my stand out track (obviously). Not my favorite version of Stevie but it’s still amazing
Chill electronic vibe. Makes me feel like a cyborg, mostly robotic and electronic but there is definitely something human within the sounds and composition of the songs
Iconic and influential album. The hits are timeless, but some of the mid end of the album doesn’t hold up as well for me. What a great album surely the artist won’t be revealed as a massive bigot years later!
Nice xmas album. Should have made Last Christmas before Wham so no 5 stars
My reviews keep getting deleted.
Some songs I enjoyed and were very pleasant and calming. Other songs devolved into noises, which sometimes I like but it didn’t always work for me here. I can understand how influential and ahead of its time this album was, but I didn’t love it on first full listen through
Dolid vibes
I liked it but didn’t love it. Radiohead just doesn’t do it for me for whatever reason
A will always rock with a nice jazz album
I like it. It feels like Ive been feeling recently which was very comforting.
Certified classic. Marvin Gaye is the man. No notes
Nina Simone my queen
I like. A lot of fun. Love me some good spanish/latin music
Jazzy. Me likey
Fantastic vocal performance, guitar is lovely and only adds to her voice. Will have to relisten with a greater attention to the lyrics. Not usually my vibe but does its job very well
Loved it Otis is the man
I love this album, it’s so much fun. I haven’t listened to it in so long.
Fine jazz album. Not a big standout for me
I need to listen to more zeppelin
Interesting album. Enjoyed but didn’t love
Rip to one of the goats. I am kinda new to D’Angelo but his music is so good and this album is no exception. Smooth, groovy, and a lot of fun. Also hella sexy
I love this album so much. Jimbo is the mf man. So innovative and forward thinking, crazy it came out almost 60 years ago it hold up so well. Love the mix between beautiful guitar work and the points where it almost devolves into pure noise but still works. This album makes me feel all the emotions, it’s fun, makes me happy, sad, pumped up, relaxed it demands my full attention when I put it on.
Sade is my queen and this album rocks. Smooth and groovy with her voice over top, sounds so good. No skips, just a wonderful album.
Dude from Allentown, PA shreds on the wrong piano for an hour in Koln.
The Temptations rock. I have nothing bad to say, enjoyable the whole way through. I love a quick concise album with no skips
So goated so much sauce, quite possibly the best album of all time. Banger after banger, still sounds fresh. This album makes me feel things no other album can and makes me appreciate every aspect of my life.
Definitely some songs that I don’t love, but too many bangers for me to really care.
Stevie is the man
Many different styles throughout the album. Such a beautiful album. Felt a connection to this album since my first listen. Rip Jeff Buckley
Goes hard.
I always have a good time with creedence. They don’t miss. The Dude, as always, was so tapped in fr
Very cozy,very beautiful and gentle
A classic. Among the horniest albums of all time but Marvin pulls it off so well. This album is amazing and I almost can’t take it seriously at times but it just sounds so fucking good.
Goated with the sauce. This white boy loves steely dan
Exceptional vocal performance from Amy Winehouse. Production is great too. My first full album listen from Amy Winehouse and this is so good. Didn’t love Rehab (lol) didn’t think it was a bad song, just liked the others much more. Sad lyrics contrasted with brighter instrumentals works really well here. Loved it and will be keeping it in the rotation. Rip Amy Winehouse
Soulful goodness. Such a lovely listen. Exactly what I was looking for from Al Green
Ya this is good stuff. Fun disco make me wanna groove.
Great opening, instruments feel chaotic and match the story Bob Dylan is telling. The acoustic songs are great, lyrically great. Really enjoyed the album, great stuff from bob
Was fine,, not really my jam
Loved most of this album, wasn’t a fan of the last track or 2
