Would give this a 6/5 if possible

There are 4 or 5 songs on this that I think are great and then there’s a lot of cacophany. In general I like what this is throwing down though

Fun!

We have to trick the moms into letting the kids bop with us

The Lennon/McCartney songs are like pre-TikTok dopamine factories

Really didn’t like the bluesy stuff much at all, but I like Questions 67 and 68 a lot

Who am I to rate Miles Davis 4/5. Oh well, it’s a 4/5.

Important context for The Muppets

I love this band for their sincere mishmash of hardcore and southwestern Americana, aggressive rhythm playing and surprisingly elegant harmonics…if you listen to Up on the Sun you also realize they are huge nerds, a fact that makes me love them even more. Maybe an acquired taste but endeared to me. “New Gods” slays.

I respect the energy with which Janis Joplin threw herself into singing but this music is not really for me

When the vibes player really went off that was pretty cool

Nice music, for the nice people

Liked this a lot!

I think this is what’s meant by “caterwauling”

Unsurprisingly I liked the super long ambient track at the end better than anything else, kind of loved that. Everything else meh.

Did I need to hear this again? Probably not. It’s fine though.

This calmed me down while commuting through Union square so it really is transportative. Yes I paused it on the train to watch several Lonely Island videos but that’s really none of your business.

Gotta appreciate these guys

Like for the general soundscape they cultivated here, don’t love bc the songwriting is a bit too same-y for me

Perfect album, with perfect sequencing. Bonus assignment: listen to the Neil Young tracks from CSNY’s 4 Way Street
