I know the hits but don't much else, no titles off this album rang a bell for me when I started listening. I knew Led Zeppelin was rooted in blues, but wow, I didn't know they started off this bluesy. You Shook Me into Dazed and Confused is textbook blues and their Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf influences are on full showcase here. I Can't Quit You Baby - no idea this was them. I swear I've heard another version/cover of this before though?

I like Neil Young but have never really listened to CSNY. Knew a couple of these (Helpless, Our House) but Almost Cut My Hair blew me away. What a song.

Fleet Foxes are a band that I like listening to but never consider putting thought into actually choosing to listen to them. It's just kind of there.

I think this will be my first 5 rating on this project. In reality I'd give it 4.5. I knew nothing of the Pretenders but really loved this album.

I can see the importance of the album material and maybe I wasn’t in the right place to listen but didn’t do it for me.

I'm not gonna put myself through this.

acutally kinda liked this one
