Rated 6/10

Langatmiges unausgereiftes Album. Es war ok machte aber teilweise wenig Spaß beim Hören.

Rated 6/10

Tremendous ninth grade art class energy from this cover.

... and the eager, earnest, adolescent energy continues in the actual music!

Rated 1/10

God this was awful. 60s psych rock is really not my thing. And the electric jug really got on my nerves.

Rated 6/10

I only listened to the mono version of the tracks. The stereo version probably wouldn't have given me much else. I quite liked the album. But not much of it remains in my memory. I don't see any reason why this album was included in the 1000 list. 3/5

Rated 6/10

Sounded like The Rolling Stones at points which is NEVER a bad thing

Rated 4/10

One good song, the rest sounds like Yoko Ono when she "performed" with John Lennon and Chuck Berry in '72.....

Rated 6/10

I surprisingly quite enjoyed this one! What I imagine the Beatles on crack would sound like

Lost a star though for the horrendous screeching and wailing

Rated 6/10

This is so 60’s. Just very typical psychedelic rock that you would expect in the background of any 60s TV show. Nothing earthshattering.

Rated 8/10

Easy to see how influential this album was. Good music, too.

Rated 6/10

easy listen but not something id come back to

Rated 8/10

Said it before, but "psychedelic" [genre] is apparently the way to my heart, and this debut album by the band that pretty much coined the psychedelic rock phrase opens up with a great number in "You're Gonna Miss Me" that hits every note I was looking for.

Rated 8/10

Real nice. Surprisingly dark psychedelic music. Feel like I'm getting high from listening to it. Groovy.

Rated 4/10

It was fine, I didn’t regret hearing it but I won’t go back to any of the songs.

Rated 8/10

Shit that was grooooooooovvvvvvaaaaaayyyyyyyyyy

Rated 6/10

The artwork is groovy!

The album was alright, but I got distracted by googling what an "electric jug" was... turns out that it's literally a bottle... um, okay. Oh yeah, the album, yeah it was alright for psychedelic 60s.

Rated 10/10

When you really like something it is easy to forget that its lofi recording and use of a jug might really get up some people's noses.

Rated 6/10

Psych rock. Its good, but nothing that would make it better than anything else in the genre

Rated 6/10

For Psychedelic that sure was boring

Rated 4/10

I don't know if this is coincidence, however, yesterday's album was Big Brother & The Holding Company, and today we get this...

Giving this 2* because it didn't make me happy, nor did it piss me off like some of the real garbage albums I am being presented with on my journey.

Also, electric jug; really?

Rated 6/10

Het plaatje opgezet en het gaat volledig aan mij voorbij. Het is wat gedateerd, meer is niet blijven hangen.
