Not enough songs talking to fish; too many songs referring to penises as jimmy

Of all the new order albums to choose to include.

No thanks

Mmm, great on a summer’s day. That’s Orange Crush.

If the primary appeal of the songs are the lyrics it'd be nice to have someone who is good at singing in your band. Or, failing that, someone who is intelligible.

Too much harmonica

An enjoyable listen! Is that even legal on this list?

I could've happily died without listening to this.

I know this was a very influential album but I don't want to listen to a whole rock opera with a plot based on the torture of a child.

Love that first song.

The authors of this book have an uncanny ability to find a legendary artist with dozens of albums - only one of which they'll put on this list. And the one they choose is just okay. Pretty impressive how they can do that.

My fave parts of Billie Holiday's catalogue pre -date the album era, so I don't particularly like many of her long form albums. Billie Holiday compilation albums forever this album for never.

I don't get it but I like it

I like rap and am pretty good at math, so have no way of explaining why I didn't like this album. Common is okay (if a little corny), but this is not my fave listening experience.

If I gave anything besides a 1 or 5 I'd give this one a 3. But because I really didn't like the other albums I listened to before this I'll give this a 5

I've reached the bargaining stage: if I give this a 5 can I never ever have to listen to another British techno album again?

The debate about whether an all time best song can make an album great continues

Did not rise high enough

Why do they all have harmonicas
