In and out.
Sass all over the shoo.
Cant not like it.
I feel i have to give it 5 stars.
Its more for its affect on me when i first heard it.
It is too long.
But in the right scenario its great .
Fair enough.
Few stand out tracks but far too long.
Found the repetition of everything a bit tiresome after an hour.
Sound of Sulver is better.
Really liked it.
Feared it would be too long, but the opposite was welcome.
Can hear artists from the period in there, King Crimson, Bowie etc
the good stuff from Roxy Music condensed.
More i listened to it, more i appreciated it
Suffered from the Poor sound quality at times.
But if shouldnt be getting pissing 2's
Not my bag, but take it for what it is: campfire music.
Wouldnt have the same effect sat watching TV at home or cooking an omelette
I openly laughed out loud on Wind is The Swift which i dont think was the intent.
Actually benefits from rhe Live element. Personality and fan interactions add to the feel of the album
I gave Little Richard 3, who i think may have benefitted from Live format too.
Nice afternoon cheer up boogie album
Undoubted Classic.
Takes you on dynamic journey, not predictable.
Lesson on how to order and structure an album.
Doesnt overstay its' welcome.
Leaves you wanting more.
Not in the know regarding Jazz.
But i like the more up-tempo numbers on here.
Can go about your day with this playing and have a bit of a finger click or Swing-ya-Pants from time to time.
Dont feel like I can give it a 2.
Haunting simplicity.
Delicate and Heavy
Henry Rolinsy vibes.
Without the arrogance.
Washer and Good Morning Captain stand out.
Although i found it enjoyable, I think that had more to do with the genre itself rather than anything this album did.
Best served upside down in a car, in the water, on GTA San Andreas.
Or at Revolution De Cuba in Sheff.
Its ok.
Green Light is a tune.
I like the understated nature and simplicity.
Hate the thing she does with her voice like Tom Grennan.
e.g. Instead of saying 'for' says 'foi'
Feels like its not foi me bit like Billie Eilish isnt.
decent foiiii what it is though I suppose.
I like grufty, but his voice here is often hard to listen to
Opening song is great. Id give that a 4.5
the rest of the album gets a 3
Bit self indulgent.
Enjoying smell of own farts too much.
Quality musicianship.
But too long for that reason.
enjoyable at times.
Same ballpark as Steely Dan.
But Not as good
Wont get a revisit
Enjoyed it.
Felt like a collection of songs more than cohesive album, But liked it all the same.
At the time bet it was major.
Snappy songs. Always good.
Could put it on anytime and it would enhance your omelette.
An out of body experience.
Didn't want to move on first listen, just tapped my foot and nodded my head.
Sat mellowing in musical joy.
No i'm not high, Sir.
Wondrous.
Going from Steely Dan to this was interesting.
Assuredly grufty & up front.
Beautifully unpleasant.
Bit long. Coulda got rid of a couple
I wouldnt eat your poached on toast with it.
Give you indigestion.
Never really given Pyblic Enemy a proper listen. Only the odd thing here and there
Bet it was massive at the time. Attitude for days.
Didnt expect Flash fucking Gordon.
Decent.
I wouldnt eat your poached on toast to it but for different reasons.
They might get swiped.
Couldnt play it as intended: On a Friday night. Off your bonce.
So that probably harmed it on 1st listen.
Enjoyed its' 90s rave-ness and
Groove on 2nd listen.
Lyrically abysmal at times but
Its a top tier example of what it is: 90's to its' core
Pleasant. Enjoyable enough.
Could easily have it on in the background.
Can sorta 'appreciate' why its so appreciated in the jazz sphere. Or whatever shape Jazz is.
Cant give it too high a rating, caus im just flirting around the Cuboid of Jazz.
Plain omelette.
Was Alright.
Understated, Beta Band ish.
Required a 2nd listen.
'Im The Man who Loves You'
onwards stood out.
Ive listened to em before
Couldnt remember much about em.
Like you forgot youd made Eggs, went for a poo and you have to eat em cold
Knew I liked this album. N8ce revisiting it.
Less predictable and less repetition for repeyitions sake than their orher one.
Sounds great with earphones.
Dippy egg.
Remember liking it, not heard it in a while.
His lyrics are still good on here
Not skipping nothing.
Even interludes.
Clangy and meaty.
Bitesize songs.
Beef Jerky.
Raw, unproduced feel, ok
1st and last songs are the best.
Basically, youve got some unexplained meat with your eggs.
I dont even know if I listened to the right thing.
Wjatever i listened to gave me a headache.
For those reasons it's getting my first 1.
Youve dropped your eggs on the floor before you could cook em.
YyyYessss Please.
Finger clickin' goodness
Found myself strutting round my 'ouse... In a good way!
Some sort of Extravagant fucking Quiche.
Though i prefer Ziggy Stardust of the two.
This is still an undoubted classic.
It ramps up the dynamism and intrigue up to 100
Prefer the scaled back version of The Prettiest Star.
good on earphones.
Imagine being around when this came out. Itd blow yer mind.
A journey of an album. Well crafted. Knew what they were doing.
Can imagine would get on your nerves if youre not in the mood for it though. Which i wasnt.
Lyrics bland, music good.
Like the mix of keyboards and guitar
Better in headphones
I cant say more than decent though.
Standard boiled egg, nowt with it.
Had to have Mr. Presley in a music rundown.
Never really got him, not really for me. Can appreciate at the time was probably major.
Nice enough. Can boogaloo to it. Under half an hour which is nice.
Wont be revisiting, mind.
Timeless.
Iconic original voice,
creates a classy ambience whenever you need... that sort of thing.
Enjoyable.
Of the time.
Nice vibe though, comedic, enjoyable feel
Think this guys mental instability is being misjudged as personality
You're enjoying scrambled eggs, then someone slaps a fistful of jam in the middle of it.
I'll try it. But not again.
Other than the singles which aredecent, rest of the album is meh.
Northern Star knocked it from a 3 to a 2
Very 80's. Very girly. Very Pop.
Very manufactured.
When you were mine is a Prince song, this is an awful version of it
Time After Time is great. Other than that: quite poor.
At the time bet she was 'very unusual'
But many have mimicked the cute, weird female act at this point. Doesnt hold up.
Everything ive heard of Earth Wind and Fire has been plain Boogieful.
This has more depth. Soulful.
I Liked it.
Bit manic at times
Not terrific. But good.
Poached egg, No toast.
Id liken it to Queen: A Night at The Opera, borh are set up as a journey/Production of an album
Think i like this more.
The Jamaica song is well out of place, and the album is too long
Dont think can give it a 4, but a high 3, aye
Prefer earlier Police. Think at this point theyre a bit fulla themselves.
Sting was going solo
Songs about nowt.
Or stuff i dont care about.
Synchronicity 2 is good, and Every Breath You Take, but heard em before.
Eggs are past their sell-by date
Very American,
nice sounding but not really my bag.
Didnt offend me, didnt do out for me either.
Frig off with the harmonica.
Woulda preferred B ry
Short simplistic songs but long album
Was a point at uni where everyone was listening to Black Keys.
Ive got a few of their albums, they arent a regular listen but i remember this and Attack and Release being their better albums
Yep.
Theres repetition and theres too much repetition.
This is the latter tbh.
Theyve got better albums.
Da funk & Around The World great.
But think they got better at Radio friendly shizz later on.
Says this is the album she'd not finished before she died, which gives the listen a bit more resonance.
Think her voice started grating on me after 2nd song however.
Liked Half Moon where she sang and didnt shriek as much.
Can get why its inspirational though.
Hard not to have a boogie- Oogalu to this.
Couple of misses on this album,
but otherwise pretty sublime
Go on Chic!
High 3
And remember The whole world's a circus dont you be the clown.
Never listened to it.
I like the fact irs a coherent album, interludes and tie ins. not just a collection of songs as many albums of the period were. revolutionary.
I appreciate the humour and lyrics.
Clearly precursor for albums like Songs For The Deaf and Modern Life Is Rubbish being able to be made
True album experience.
If youre gonna attempt to be political though, at least get the country's name right...
4 for the effort
few decent songs, but 3 Ramones songs is enough for anyone.
Hate the look.
Cant understand him half the time.
Your eggs' got hair in it.
I cant give everyone a 3.
But other than that...
Genuinely never heard of him before
Thought this was great, thoroughly enjoyable.
Didnt know he wrote Everybodys Talkin'
Great voice, Minister/Preacher tone great and the extra syllable he puts on everything.
Feels like a discovery.
You know, His lyrics make it obvious of his unwokery.
Get over it.
He didnt kill anyone. Despite his many mentions of it. *worried look*
Great album.
Does lag a little at the end mind
Djou know what, its better than i remember, some nothing songs but a few catchy tunes.
Better albums if the period that arent on here though.
3
For Stuck In A Moment Alone.
Rest if the album nah
All you can maybe say negative is songs are often too long.
But other than that, great album.
Oozing with originality, funky, genre spanning deliciousness.
Eggs.
Nah, not for me.
Just someone frigging about.
Might as well have recorded me on the keyboards in Music in 2005.
Not interesting, Not funny.
If he didnt record & produce it himself, whoever didnt talk him out of it deserves a slap too.
Required a 2nd listen.
Found it quite irritating 1st listen.
Heard first song before, and Gnarls Barkley's version of Gone Daddy Gone
Lou Reed vocal vibes in some parts.
the backing vocals bring a lot.
Grew on me.
Would be more appreciated having tooted summink.
Not as uber muscular as Mothership which we reviewed.
Cant help but compare it to other of their albums which i prefer.
Still v. enjoyable.
And the monologues are fantastic.
Id buy an album of his motovational speeches.
Aware of rhem but never listened to an album.
Think youve gotta be inn the mood for this.
Definitely too long.
Good for putting on and doing what youre doing.
Impressive Psych and Meatiness.
Obvs inspirations for King Gizzard.
Coulda done without the Alan Rickman monologues but y'know
Enjoyable. Irritating at times.
Theyve got so many albums i think id enjoy a greatest hits.
Id go see em live.
This albums ok.
Anthem after anthem.
I prefer the Use Your Illusions tbh
But you cant argue its a monster of a debut.
Should be part of every lad's music education.
The 'i remember You was conflicted' poem running through it tying it together makes it feel like a thought out, complete album.
Some absolute tunes on here.
The different voices gives it sonething extra at tines.
At other times its a bit naff.
Elements of R&B, Hip Hop & Funk
Teetered between 4.5 and 5.
Right up my fucking street, this.
Blew Gabrielle's Walk On By out the water.
Feels luke he joins in when he feels like it. On his terms.
You wanna leave it 2 minutes before you say a word, thats alllllriiiight.
This album itself cant get a 5, but might have to seek out more isaac.
Dippy egg and soldiers.
The egg's so dippy its outrageous.
Vivid flashbacks of dancing on mdma with Glowstix at Glastonbury to Justice,
light shows and live act be ace
Heard this album before, is decent.
in the right scenario : v.good.
DVNO major highlight.
3.5 to 4.
I'll round it up.
Was alright to have on in the background.
Wasnt what I expected from someone called Barry.
Think its maybe a bit tryhard to be cool and cultured.
Borderline irritating?
2.5
Got a new loop pedal and stuff?
Ah cool,
No I Dont wanna listen to you experiment with it
Felt like he was enjoying it more than I was.
Stuff was happening musically.
I wont remembwr it half an hour after listening though.
2.5
