1001 Albums Summary

country, US-American folk music

that intro song/medley, uff. Very entertaining Album

This is probably all I ever looked for in Electronic music without knowing that I did. Such a versatile, fun, complex, but not overladen composition.

Enjoyed this album on a hot summer's day. I like the first half better. The very sexual songs made me a bit uncomfortable. Sometimes it’s a bit too slow for my taste.

"Ironic" and "Hand in my Pocket" will be bangers 4-ever! As a big karaoke-fan I will always appreciate those car-radio sing-along hits. Otherwise it's a consistent album. But as a whole it gets quite boring after a couple of listens.

It’s quite boring and in instrumentally really basic, if not bad, in my opinion. It’s probably an important album for some kind of new wave / synth tradition which I don’t want to diminish. I still don’t think it’s necessarily good …

I don’t know. With the Beatles I have the impression you’re just supposed to like them and rate them 5 stars and if you don’t you have to have a really eloquent critique that demonstrates your music literacy to legitimize your rating.

This reminds me of my late granddad. It always felt so cozy at his home when the French chansons or the jazz big bands were playing. Favs were “Amsterdam” and “Les Timides”.

Loved this.

Fuck yeah!
