I don't like this band not the feel of their music. I find it odd that David Bowie was a fan? What do I know?

I really like Marvin. The way he sings about everyday stuff in a soulful way. It is really funny when he whines about child support in the middle of a song.

Classic album that has a wild ass mix of different tracks. Beastie Boys started as a punk band and some of that is in here. Classic pass the mic. Funk and turntablism. Weird world music samples. Really just a fun album despite some anachronistic cultural insensitivity.

Likeable and varied for sure.

Incredible pacing. Not too much of any one thing. Corgan's voice works well with their chosen guitar sound (if not too much else in this world). Most folks who bought this album had heard the title track only to get punched in the face by "Quiet" and so forth. The action let's up tracks 5-6 but before you snooze Geek U.S.A. is there. Rinse, repeat, etc.

Mans got a lot of Hits but this is maybe the quintessential album.

Pretty fun album all around. Blondie managed, somehow, to flirt with pop and progressivism on equal measure without coming off as unauthentic. It's enjoyable.

Really nice album and not what I expected.

I feel like the entirety of Bob Dylan fandom is a psy-op. I hear the consensus that he's an incredible writer and lyricist but I don't feel that many of these songs stand out. I don't enjoy his voice or music. I can't understand how folks can laud him so lavishly when someone like, say, a Paul Simon exists contemporarily? Heck, I'm sure Simon like Dylan. I just can't glom onto the thing that makes him enjoyable.

It's the quintessential jazz album for me among a few others my dad used to listen to. It holds both and special place and up. It's a classic piece and it's splendid.

Love the lyrics more than the musical composition.

Not what I expected. I felt like I was going to be suffering through a bass test track album but it turned out to be a really nice little ambient stoner piece. Relaxing and enjoyable enough.

Odd album to be included here. I feel like albums like this get made all the time. Talented but with an outside flavor. They don't get any traction so we never here of them. This one was pretty slick but it didn't lean in a direction I prefer. Maybe I just couldn't meet it where it lives this day.

Lord what an album. How odd and spacey and fun. Technically high-level without being a dick about it. Supertramp in the morning is a rad way to kick off a week.

Super relaxing and nice for my morning.
probably for any time except a pitched gun-battle with pink robots but, then, maybe?

I generally love Eno's contributions to others work maybe more than his own solo works. This one is interesting and varied.

Love it front to back. Every song has something lovely to say.

Always feels like a mixture of Rolling Stones and the Grateful Dead. Those are two groups I don't really enjoy. The contributions from each comparative item are actually the parts of their respective bands I don't enjoy. There's a lil Beatles in there too. Also, not the good parts.

I've heard it prior and enjoyed it. At a listen back I think it is both surprisingly advanced in its style for the era and sadly still relevant in terms of its revolutionary message.

One of my favorite albums.
