At first, I wasn't sure about this album; it sounded very "staticy," but it had started growing on me when I got to Turquoise Hexagon Sun.

It's interesting to hear some of Woody Guthrie's previously unrecorded songs in such a different style. I can't say I loved the album, but will listen again.

Chill soulful jazz.

I couldn't finish it. I got Monty Python vibes from the first line of track 1 and gave up on Lion in the Winter.

I really enjoyed this ethereal album after a chaotic and stressful few weeks.

Out of 12 songs, only 4 are original?

Couldn't find the full album but I may be able to piecemeal it together in a playlist if I really dug around. Our House was one of my favorite songs (and videos) as a teen. Anyone else remember them on The Young Ones?

No strong feelings, ended up going down an internet rabbit hole about Rita Hayworth after reading the wiki for the album.

I thought Games Without Frontiers came out later in the 80s, I'll have to check out his other earlier albums.

Enjoyable

I enjoyed it. Busy playing catch-up at work and on my album list due to being off for a week. Only thing that stood out was the crying child at the end of The Kids, but I didn't pay attention to the lyrics of the song. I may check it out again when I'm not focused on other things.

Groovy hippy vibes for a rainy day

I don't normally like live albums, but this one is an exception. It's surreal listening to Cash sing about murder and executions while the literally captive audience cheers and boo when the warden's name is mentioned. LOL

Not many songs from the album are available on Spotify, but I was familar with them.

Nice background music, adding a star for Close to You since it's featured in my favorite movie (Mirrormask)

I had higher expectations seeing this came out in 1987 (so far my favorite decade), but it seems like noise. The cover of Just Like Heaven couldn't merit it an additional star. Now I'll listen to The Cure to get that out of my ears.

No strong feelings about this album. Wild Horses is one of my favorites, though.

I liked it - upbeat and enjoyable for background music at work.

Fun bops, reminds me of stuff my mom loved. She introduced my oldest to Buddy Holly in the early 90s, which is weird because it would be like introducing someone today to music from the early 90s.

I didn't really care for the whispery breathy style of singing, and wondered if I was going to get through the album during the 1st song. None of the songs really captured my attention.
