It was okay! A fun way to spend an hour, but not itching to return to it. Happy to have given it a go and to know a band I didn't before though! :)

I have this CD... it's been in my pile of "i'll get around to you" for a year...
It was brilliant and I'm a mug for not hearing this until yesterday! :)

Lovely pleasant things

This is a time 1001 albums chose an album that I love to bits. It's melodic, slightly chaotic, but above all a fun album. I could write a tonne about this one, instead I'll say 5* and continue getting ready for work :)
Rated 8/10
Not my wheelhouse, but I enjoyed it a lot! Fantastic voice, and a downright pleasant morning :)

How have I never heard this!
Rated 8/10
Not bad, I think I preferred Herbie Hancock, but this made me feel like I was playing Gran Turismo
Complicated. I've written essays on this already (literally, for musicology I wrote this). Competent music, goes really well if you forget Eric Clapton's prejudices etc.
Adding a star because I think any chance for people to hear of Robert Johnson is a good thing, and Rambling was the first song I played in a band at the start of a college term.
Minus a star for a song called "little girl" - icky

Oooh I kind of love this

Great mood

Utterly great!

More tame in places, weird as a fish and a fun listen! This and Joe's Garage are now in my musics, thank you 1001! :)
This is why I enjoy 1001 so much! Heard the title track and people say "great album", and never would have thought to give it a go. :) It felt sad and nostalgic, in a way that maybe gets more heavy as the album ages, as there's two layers of nostalgia? Wow, and I could hear 90s Britpop all over this album too, so that was neat. :)
Rated 6/10
I actually didn't mind this! Not anywhere near my wheelhouse, but well put together and stayed interesting, lots of hooks etc. I much prefer the later acoustic-type stuff, but this'll do, and I totally get why it's on the list in terms of impact on culture etc. :)
Some really great music! From reading about the wider background around the album, I had no idea what an impact this album had.
I'm going to give it a 4 as I can't say it was a start-to-finish perfect album, but glad I've heard it. :)

Awesome and voting high moves Kid Rock to its correct location as worst album (because it is)
Rated 4/10
Wasn't bad, and had some great guitar parts... but sheesh yucky lyrics at times
Rated 6/10
It was pleasant but nothing stood out on this first listen - I might go back though as it was a nice album and might click with me later on?
Rated 4/10
Okay this was a step down from their others
