Curtis Mayfield · 1 likes
4/5
Just love the Curtis vibe. 7.5 Fav track: Hard Times Least fav: Blue Monday People
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds · 1 likes
3/5
I think embracing Nick Cave is largely about buying into his schtick. Listening to this, I buy into it, for a while, and then I get tired of it. Some great moments on here, but it's too much for me for a long album. 6.8 Fav song: The Curse of Milltown Least fav: O'Malley's Bar Song
The Who · 1 likes
1/5
I've been aware of this album's status all my adult life, but I've never sat down to listen to it... until now. I was taken aback by how disagreeable I found it. I'm not against the idea of a concept album, but nothing about this worked. Escruciating in places. Worst album I've come across so far on the project. I don't even like Pinball Wizard, I'm sorry. 1.6 Fav track: Sparks (the lack of vocals was a real treat here) Least fav: Do You Think It's Alright? (no)
