A firm 2.5. Some excellent moments and some very turgid bits. Interesting sounds though

Unique voice. Never want to listen to this again.

A third of this was enough. I thought they were good beers but oh boy I was fed up with the n word!

I could hear you he's of Television, a few duff tracks, but overall pretty good. Unexpectedly!

Predictable 80s straightforward rock, with a couple of decent tracks.

Tip top new wave pop

I can see the band's smug faces as they play this to their adoring hoards of muso male fans. The lyrics suck. Just because you can play guitar doesn't mean you should. Turgid.

Fun listening

Late period Elvis? Went on a bit, but had it's moments

I'm not listening to this, he's having precisely none of the half penny he'd get if I did. But I'm rating it anyway just to say "fuck off you racist arsehole".

Hadn't heard this previously. Really enjoyed this and am excited to discover more. Was put off by hyperbole when it first released...the praise was well deserved

Slightly dated I guess, but still powerful. An enjoyable listen. Shockingly I had never listened to this in its entirety before, so good to rectify that.

Bollocks...and just to clarify - that isn't good

Sparse. Some moments of magic.

Infinitely better than Brothers in Arms. Almost managed to listen to the whole thing...

A joyous listen.

Difficult for me to judge as I stopped listening half way through the "Imagine" cover version.

Nope nope nope

My least favourite of the first 4 Talking Heads LPs... But much better than I remembered it.

Wonderfully strange exotic sounds.

Steve Albini's engineering contributes to this wonderful sound.

Classic Christmas made stuffing a turkey much better!

A little Spinal Tap but not a terrible record.

If only the words "all killer no filler" had been applied to the song selection here. Some of Hüsker Dü's best...and some that would have been better as a Record Store Day limited edition outtakes LP (on purple vinyl ).

Joyful pop music

Not Sebadoh's best ...but still a good un.

Bowie-esque and obviously influential. A good listen.

Has aged surprisingly well. Was worried going back it would sound hideously dated, but is still shimmery pop music. Enjoyable and fun.

Both delicate and powerful

Achtung Bono....

Inoffensive
