Album full of classic hits and feel good bops. Great way to start!
Comments on non-classics
-Speed Demon only has 38 million plays, probably because the overly aggressive cartoonish slap bass.
-Liberian Girl is... something else...
- Just Good Friends, BOP - Thanks for showing up Stevie!
- Another Part of Me - Meh. Not out of place, but doesn't move anything
- Closing run of Man in the Mirror to Leave Me Alone is FANTASTIC
Not my jam. Not terrible. Enjoyed the listen. However most of it rides the same pocket for the entirety of the album.
Wouldn’t choose to put it on again, but probably wouldn’t change if a few songs came up on random.
Put me in a Smokey road house.
Put me on a road trip.
Take me to when the album came out and let me smoke out with pops.
This will be introduced to regular rotation.
Grew up on this album. No notes needed. Enjoy Flea or pound sand - or better yet, Suck My Kiss
So... I anticipated dreading this album. But I ended up being surprised. Wouldn't necessarily go out of my way to listen to it again, but if a track came up in the future, wouldn't be opposed. Fine for background
It's disco, if you can look past some of that cheese, the music itself is a bop. Gets the toe tappin', the booty shakin', and hey, you end up recognizing all the hip hop songs that have sampled this record! All I need to know next is where is the snow?
Well... there's that. Love you John Cale, but this ain't it.
G-Funk Era is still alive and well. As the sun rotates and my game grows bigger....
If you love R.E.M. you love this album.
If you don't like R.E.M. you still enjoy this album.
Yet another that was fine to listen to, but not one I'm marking for repeat listens. Radio hits were fine, some of the deeper cuts are fine. Overall... it's fine.
One of the things I was looking forward to with this project was to be exposed to albums or artist I haven't heard before. This is one. Will it be on regular rotation? No. Did I enjoy it? Sure. Will I now be singing the Naughty Little Flea song over and over again? Yes.
Who doesn't love rum sodomy? But over an hour of it may be a bit too much. Is it all one track? Is there much of a difference? Is my ear not discerning enough for the pirate folk? The day after listening, I woke up with a bad case of scurvy.
I tried. Put it on and it somehow just faded to the background as if I wasn't listening to anything at all.
Grew up on the Beatles. Grew up on this album. What a treat to revisit.
Make my funk the P-Funk, I wants to get funked up.
Thank you George Clinton & Bootsy Collins.
Unfunky UFO may be one of the best tracks out there.
Some classic Marley tunes. Album would probably hit better if it wasn't freezing cold outside and in the middle of a winter storm. Makes me want to be barefoot in the sand somewhere.
Emmylou has a fantasic voice. Some fun tunes on this.
Once again, can't go wrong with the Beatles. Revolver was another one of those albums played often in the house growing up.
Part of the reason why I started this adventure, find things I wouldn't have on my own. Enjoyed this. Funky beat, don't understand the words, but the body knows the groove.
Leonard's voice is one that can often be found narrating my dreams. Either ghoulish nightmares or an easy breezy afternoon in the shade. Never going out of my way to listen. Wasn't the worst, but still the adoration of this guy at times confuses me.
Love some J.C. great covers, distinct voice.
As long as this was the only gift Spector had for me, I'm good with it. Christmas Classics. Can't complain.
Album title is fitting. I want to find myself in an old western town ready for a bar fight and duel. When I win, I'll take my spoils and hit the dusty trails. Great story telling and a great voice.
This is ride music. Unwind music. Sit back and enjoy music.
