WT…and I mean this…AF is this doing on here. Three albums of this group???

Up theee with VU&Nico and Revolver for most influential albums ever. Whatever you think of them, and they don’t care, the impact alone makes it 5 stars.

It’s 6:15am. Let’s make some coffee to wake up and hit play on today’s album…. Ok this is like a music espresso. Not really for me. Every song sounds the same. The vocals are just not for me. Vulgar display of a huge steaming pile of shite.

Hell yes. I love A Tribe Called Quest but never listened to Q-Tip as a solo artist. Here we go..

Ok definitely got some vibes and sounds I was expecting but it also much different that ATCQ. Love it regardless. Putting this qtip all the way down my ear.

My son was named Liam in large part because of this record. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This is the reason I signed up. To hear a band I’ve heard of but never listened to. Love this one.

Well hello there old friend. We’ve met MANY times before. Easy 5 here. Listen to everything else being released in 1967 and then listen to this. The perfect counterbalance to love and peace. Low fi, dark, magic. It’s the real deal.

Hmmm. I know a song or 2 by name. Not really my style. And an hour? Let’s click play and go. Yep, Rhythm Nation is very familiar and good. Oh, I like Miss You Much even better. Not sure an interlude is needed after every song. Ok. It is finished. I’ll admit, I was kinda dreading an hour of this album. But it seemed faster than that. It was well done for the time. The singles are still good. Truly a three and a half star but I just can’t round up to 4.

You know what? I think Van Halen is fair. Heard all the hits and this one has several. But that’s all that’s worth listening to on this. Eddie’s guitar noodling is ok on small doses. Same with David’s vocals.

Opened up for today’s selection. See this. My face goes…🤔. Track 1 ends. I think I like this. By the end of “Let There Be Drums” I’m adding to my streaming library. It’s interesting for sure. Quite funky.

A long long long 40 something minutes. What is this? The worst parts of NIN with the dark side of Willy wonka. That may sound awesome, but it’s not.

20 years ago I had a friend that loved SJ and talked about them all the time. I wish I would have listened intently sooner. I get that this is not for everyone. But I can’t deny the great songwriting. It even name checks my city, Chattanooga? Wow.

I was born the same month this album came out. I live less than 2 hours from Athen, GA. I feel cosmically connected. Fun album. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Yes!!!🙌. This album is such a part of me it’s in my DNA. A weird album it the greatest ways possible. Maharishi and Manson and monkeys. It’s got it all. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

5 star for me. All talented guys and went totally against the grain. Every song is incredible.

Shit. From a butt. A few cool guitar licks, but this does nothing for me.

Hell yeah. Great album. This has it all. Funk and grooves and a cohesive message that’s important all while being a soundtrack. Incredible.

Winwood has a great voice. But there are so many better albums of a similar style from this error. 3 for me.
**umm. Vagabond Virgin??***. What in the Jeffrey Epstein is this song?

Easy 4. Contains perhaps my fave Stones’ song in “Wild Horses”. Iconic tunes and iconic cover.

Yeahhhh…. I absolutely appreciate what the Pistols did in rock history. PiL? Not so much.
