No one can convince me this belongs on the list

Listening to the 1001 is slowly changing my opinion on live albums for the better

You wouldn’t steal a car type beat

There’s been a lot of late 60s slop so I didn’t have high hopes. However this was very enjoyable, especially the first song.

So I listened to the expanded edition because it was the only version on Spotify. Pretty good I thought, then I checked which songs were on the original album out of interest. Only 6 songs! 35 mins! Half are covers! Basically if they just selected the tracklist better this would be a solid 4/5. Also Keith moon is an absolute beast on the drums.

Like all rock operas I have heard before there are 2 or 3 actually great songs and then an hour of filler. This is probably the best of the bunch but still only a couple songs I would ever listen on their own.

Muse are for people who can’t handle Radiohead.

Joking aside this was actually quite enjoyable - knights of cydonia a particular standout.

Absolutely not what I wanted for my cycle to work

The best of the 3 CCR albums on the list but still not amazing

Got 3 songs in and was done

For the first 5 songs this was a 4/5 for me, but after that it got way worse (especially the bogus man).

A bit better than the last pogues album but that’s only really because of fairytale of newyork

Extremely boring and repetitive

First 3 tracks are great but it does get a bit samey

short and uninteresting

I have now had all 3 Nick drake albums generated. He’s got to be one of very few artists with more than 1 album to have all his albums in the book. Not that I’m complaining, because they’re all really great.

Have liked this band for a long time and this is one of their best albums. It’s just so intricate and rewards multiple listens. My only negative would be that it’s not quite as consistent as I’d like.

The album title is definitely accurate

Was gonna be a 3 but the last 2 songs were really great

Maybe his music is very slowly growing on me
