All time classic

Not a fan of the big brass here. I prefer the R&B, rock and roll Ray.

This has no business being on this list.

A cultural landmark that influenced many, while meaning to still sound fresh and immediate to this day. The power and assuredness of Chuck D paired with the energy and decisive Terminator X makes for a superb listen every time I put it on. 4.5 stars.

A mixed bag. Certainly some outstanding moments. I want more of Jimi’s little blues riffs (Little Wing). 3.5

Certainly some highlights. Second half falls off a bit. Not his best, but worthy of this list.

Generic. Wouldn’t be on my list.

I’ve always found the Police to be a bit corny. Listening to this today, that opinion still checks out.

Might change it later.

Do yourself a favor and watch them play this album in full at Royal Albert Hall. Great record. 4.5 stars. https://youtu.be/uQauaVbPEAA?is=ST0LXW6IU8xN5SwF
