i <3 an unexpected steel drum (uh-oh, love comes to town), i like the beats for most talking heads songs, they just make you want to move and dance
what caught my ear most:
the book i read
pulled up
don’t you worry about the government
no compassion
psycho killer - think this was the only song i knew from this album before this listen
last week is going to b an earworm for me i just know it
overall liked this, saved/added a few songs to playlists, think the second half was more my speed
off the cuff, i am so into by these names
i quite enjoy when artists do the radio station bit for an album
it’s the law around here that you got to wear your sunglasses so you can feel cool -- this is so sib
really grooving w this one, i like the beats and how the instruments come together, saved i think every song lol
another sitch where i had rly only heard give up the funk from this album, glad to know the album behind the song
the songs r a bit longer than what i usually reach for, but i cld def see myself throwing this album on as a whole
the jazzy, funky, heavy instrument afrobeat sound is one i find engaging and easy to listen to
i liked how long the songs were, i feel like you rly settled into the beat, the songs kinda blended in a way that felt cohesive
this being a live album rly added to it for me, i liked in the last few songs when you could hear people in the crowd, i feel like the music has a lot of energy, so hearing the audience react and engage with it was cool
ending the album w a 16 minute long drum solo is such a power play
bonus: was curious so i did google fela kuti and he is one interesting guy, him marrying 27 women in one day is a fun fact i will not soon forget
would say this is a classic in our family, haven’t listened all the way through in a while, but i am quite enjoying
i love cowboy tunes and i love ballads
standouts:
el paso - duh
the masters call
running gun
big iron
i like how the songs are short but still you get a lot of story with each one
el paso will always make me think of driving and singing with addy and dad
some fun guitar solos, some lyrics r just so goofy
standouts:
nightrain
mr. brownstone
sweet child o mine
liking this more than i thought i would, but probably wouldn’t put it on — kinda blended together at a point
my throat kinda hurt by the end of this album #empath
this came out two days after my bday (8 years before i existed) but i will give them a point for this
this isn’t rly a style of music i gravitate to, cld see it being fun if i was a more angry individual, tho i do like the messages behind a lot of the songs, take the power back afff
i feel like its part of the whole thing they have going on, but idk if i rly like how the instrumentals kinda drown out the vocals, that said i do think the instrumentals r probs my fave part of the album
if they had an instrumentals only version i lowkey think i wld listen to that
i feel a need to draw attention to the fact that i did not get them in spotle last week so this feels personal
i found for a few of the songs i was like ok yeah i kinda get it, this is fun then they wld rly up the scream for the last minute or so and they wld lose me
i <3 jimi, he just has it
the instrumentals are just so cool, guitar is insane and i love his voice
i love his music but don’t always branch out of what i know, so this was a good listen for me, will def be returning to it
standouts:
little miss strange
crosstown traffic
come on (let the good times roll)
(lowkey all of them)
probs 4.5
album cover is killing me
some cool guitar, i can rock w it, liked more than i expected/cld see it growing on me but probs wldn’t reach for this album, liked the alternative versions more for a lot of these lol
standouts:
(we are) the roadcrew
love me like a reptile (purely bc name)
dance
i’ve always liked this cover, i think it matches the coldplay sound/vibe
i like coldplay’s sound, very easy to listen to and i like the instrumentals
feel like the songs are distinct but still blend well, very cohesive sound
standouts:
warning sign
daylight
green eyes
the scientist *
a rush of blood to the head *
clocks *
* def a nostalgia factor w some of these
i love rem, great vibe fun sound
i think i liked all the songs tbh
this was a pretty short album which was kinda nice, wld def put this on
liked this more than i thought i wld
3.5/5
i love this sound
the live is fun, i like hearing how the crowd reacts
overall rly liked this, wld def listen again
standouts:
try me
think
the medley
ethereal alien vibe
warszawa kinda has a jane goodall cd vibe that i enjoyed
this was a fun album, i liked the mix of instruments, feel like the beginning didn’t hook me but by the time it ended i wanted more
had a narrative feel, feel like u cld picture the songs if that makes sense
3.5/5
solid, i enjoyed this
i like how weird and kinda bad neil young’s voice is it works in the space
i felt like the songs were pretty varied, they sounded cohesive but distinct, very easy to listen to
i think ive been sleeping on fleetwood mac, i know the classics, but this album reminded me i shld rly dive in more
standouts:
the ledge
tusk
beautiful child
i have a sister of the moon
yeah that was fire, very easy to listen to, wld def wanna throw this on and dance arnd and have fun

4.5
was unfamilly with this band, but from fist song i was intrigued
there’s a goofy vibe that im enjoying
dear god threw me tho i wasnt expecting a child
let ur freak flag fly!!!!!
this had more jimi songs that i’m familiar with
alien spaceship intro is awesome
wait until tomorrow is my fave from him i think
this was funky, not my usual reach
glad i listened, think it would need to grow on me, but i liked the bones
def think by the end i was more into it, it was a slow grab for me
3.5
don’t think i’ve ever rly delved into his solo stuff, it’s solid
some is a bit melodramatic (@ dont give up)
this was fun, chill groovy vibe, easy to listen to 3.5
this came out on my bday in 1979 so that’s (the) special(s) to me
liked this, kinda a fun ska vibe, wld b curious for another listen
