Might be the worst Neil Young album I have listened to. Can definitely see how influential he was on the grunge movement, but this just wasn't all that great. 2/5

Surprised this was the album out of the potential LK albums they could feature that shows up here. Overall just average. 3/5

Great album. Really enjoy the singles, but the rest of the album is worthy as well. Listening to it reminded me that "Dancing in the Dark" was maybe my first favorite song growing up. Distinctly remember hearing it on the radio on my way to and at Preschool. 4/5

Pretty solid end to end. Not a huge fan of the biggest blondie hits (maybe because I have heard them too much) but the rest of the album was of really high quality. 4/5

Never can really go wrong with Bob Marley. While the songs aren't all that diverse, such a great vibe...always feels sunny. 3.5/5

Definitely Avant Garde, but a decent album regardless. Probably nothing I would return to but I could understand its influence. 2.5/5

The Rain = one of the most overrated songs of my youth. I continue to hear it heralded as a visonary amazingly piece, but I can't stand it. The rest of it is just blah as well. 1.5/5

Rated 6/10

Despite owning this album from release, I think this is my first full listen. Overall ok, but nothing amazing. Really benefits from the production. 3/5

Now I don't consider myself a huge poptimist, but I don't hate that type of music either. This one was just a complete slog though...Dirrty about the only redeeming factor. 1.5/5

Unique use of the sax in a non-ska setting. Unfortunately it doesn't really hold my interest all that much. I just chalk up the Zutons at the end of of a long list of anonymous early to mid aughts rock bands (Klaxons, The Bravery, etc.) 2/5

Rated 4/10

Not the best big star...I really like the earlier stuff but could pass on most of this. 2/5

Rated 8/10

This is an album I think I would have been all over as a 13-14 year old...not sure why it missed my radar at the time. Seems like it made a bigger impact in the UK than the US. Doesn't sound much like Husker Du at all, but I think that is a good thing in this case. 4/5
