Lots of varied sounds. Clearly made well. Mostly pleasant.
Listening to double albums idly in one go is excruciating when so many tracks sound the same. Maybe they don't, but tell that to the album, not to me!
I was very excited to finally listen to this, and it did not disappoint. Sounds great thru-out. Lovely concept, with the wrappings of the conversation with the group. This one could grow to a 5 down the line.
She's got the pipes. I think my mom would like this!
Extremely pleasant music. It's just evidently well made.
It is nice to finally experience what is considered one of the best concept albums of all time. I consider it: pretty OK! Very pleasent prog through-out, and nice to follow along with the story-telling.
It's the first time where my mouth was wide open during one of these albums. Especially Take Five, which made me giddy to hear in its correct context. It feels like one of the first things I've listened on here that might actually have some replay-value for me. I am ready to get rid of my jazz-posery and to fully submit. If I could submit half-stars here this would be a 4.5.
Quite a bit of fun. I really enjoy the production, especially how it sounds now (where it is a bit lower resolution).. it's a dusty sound but in a way I hadn't heard before. It's a new type of old, and that's exciting.
My excitement waned over time.
Very good record, absolutely comes off as a historical classic. I think I'd need these tracks to stick a little better in my mind for me to give this a fiver, but it's not at all far off.
Quite good for what it is! I could be convinced there's better ZZ out there but I enjoyed it through-out
Very nice jazz to lose yourself in whilst being completely awake. It's between a 3 and a 4 to me.
It is very good. At some point I need to weigh in regarding replay-value, and like, I just don't see myself ever listening to this again. So instead of praise I give this respect. 3.5
Such a fun whimsical album. The production, instruments, vocals. It feels like a local theater production. I'm bathing in the warm embrace of it all. 4.5
Hey loser, we need to take a 5 hour car ride out of nowhere for no reason right now. Listen, I said right now! I'll drive, but you make sure to put on something on the sound system.. and it's gotta be great road trip music.. you got something?
Completely reasonable blues, but it gave me some weird flashbacks to family parties.. hmm.. I think it might be a bit too honkie tonk for me.. On a better day I might give this 3. Well..
Very nice! I was consider a 4 to start with, but I wish the songs were a little more rememberable even at a first listen. Actually, this is extremely my shit anyway so let's give this a 3.5 technically, but a 4 actually.
Bro IS by the campfire and telling stories.
Finding music that you've heard as a chibis in these album listenings is an incredible feeling. It's nice to know that THAT song is "The Weight". I think I will have to go with my gut and not really give it higher then 3.5 - very few instances where I'd listen to this again. But it is quite good
God bless this record, and it is a bit of fun. Feels like it might have some replay value for ironic reasons, but that's about where it stops for me.
Umm badummmm dum bada da
Umm badummmm dum bada da
Umm badummmm dum bada da
Yeah pretty good this
Such a future forward record. Released 2 decades before it was made. Incredible to hear it made so far back.
The master has a normal day at the Making Incredible Music factory.
I was really vibing out with this as I was hearing it - I gotta be realistic about the chance of playing this ever again but it hit me just as well as it could've. It does really feel like vacation car-trip music, or my associations with it. Very possible having it on the TV and not listening THAT intently was part of the sensations.
Not a bad track on this bad boy. Incredible production, incredible vocals.
It's the afternoon on a (relatively) warm Scandinavian summer day. The sun has continuously had its way with me and caused me.. perhaps not sun-burned, but sun-glazed. A light headache lingers in my skull. A friend tells me that THIS one is the one I need to listen to, with my partner in the room.
I've not quite listened to anything like this before. But I have, too. It's always tough to describe something based on thoughts that have escaped you. It feels like a theater production manifest in audio. It's.. I had a hard time absorbing what was being said, but I felt most of it. I feel more enriched having listened to it. 3/5
