I don’t mind ABBA, they’ve got their place in pop history and certainly had plenty of bangers. I liked some of this but equally parts of it that felt like a bit of a drag to get through. A decent effort though.

A great listen all round

If they’d ditched the vocals it would have been better. And half the songs.

It’s really not that good is it?

Pretty good stuff, certainly in places at least.

This is pretty cool, liked quite a lot of songs on this one.

Ok so this probably isn’t their best work and it’s clearly several songs too long. But it’s still a good album with a number of decent tracks.

Such a great album. Loved listening to this when it came out and it still sound fresh and doesn’t feel like it’s aged at all. So easy to listen to and get lost in.

I have absolutely no idea what I’ve just experienced but I kind of like it! Not sure how to describe what I’ve just listened to but it’s fair to say it’s not like any of the previous 628 albums we’ve had so far! Which was fantastic! Ok so the vocals were ‘interesting’ and of course I don’t know what he was ‘singing’ but the sound was great and the vocals strangely seemed to work set against the music.

Completely bonkers but it had me hooked! Really liked it. Les couilles du chien!

This had some decent moments in it. Overall not a bad effort.

I used to really dislike Nothing Compares to U back as a kid. But now I don’t mind it as much, listening to it as an adult it’s a great song. As for the album as a whole I found it started slow and dipped at the end but there was a run of good songs in the middle.

Having got ready for a football match in a changing room paid for by Phil Collins, I feel compelled to give this a bonus star. I got the man of the match award that day too. Probably my only one. Thanks Phil.

Oh and by the way, this wasn’t a great listen.

First listen I had this on in the background and it seemed alright. Second listen I paid more attention to it and found myself getting a bit bored with it after a while. Dance music does struggle to hold my attention after a while.

I’m not really sure how to rate this. I assume it’s alright but the reality is I’m never likely to listen again and if I was ever wondering what music to play this would never spring to mind.

I think this is my least favourite of the EC albums we’ve had so far. Struggled to engage with it.

An eclectic mix of tracks, never really seemed to follow a formula. Which at least helped try to keep the interest up over the 75 mins.

Probably about a 3.5 rating but bumped up to 4 as an early birthday gift to TGL.

This is a good record with a nice, chilled vibe whist also retaining the interest all the way through. Good stuff.

Must confess to never listening to the whole album before but you know what, I wish I had, it’s really very good.

Not for me thanks, completely bored by the end.

This was alright in places but a bit up and down. Waterloo Sunset clearly the best track.
