I wasn't a fan. I didn't hate it, and I didn't turn it off, but I really didn't like it at all, either. And it sort of sounded a little bit like musical in the way the songs were arranged which I found weird.

Good, funky, and some real messags. Pusherman is really great.

I need to find another word than “fine” for albums that are just “fine.” Obvious Beatles influences (and a few more rip-offs, than homages) and overall is not completely unenjoyable. But there’s nothing that’s going to bring me back to it, either, and I’m not sure why it’s on the list.

80s synth. Not great, not terrible.

For some reason the entire time listening to this one the lead singer kept reminding me of the Prom singer in the movie American Pie. No idea why that thought kept coming in my head, but it did. I went back and watched the prom in that movie and they're not even that similar, but my brain just can't shake the comparison.

I liked this album. I knew a few songs already, and the others were good too.

I had a degenerate gambler uncle who used to play at Cripple Creek in CO. He was always humming or singing that song. Brings back some good memories, RIP Uncle Dan.

This is a great album. Not much more needs to be said, it's simply great.

I'm just not a fan of the twangly guitars, twinkly pianos, and the sounds that feels like it could come out of a western. This album just is way too much country for me, and I'm not a fan.

I did like the one song, 100 Years From Now

It's fine. Pretty standard late 60s pop. Wouldn't turn it off if it was on, but not going to look to play it again, either.

Another album that has nothing in it for me. I'm obviously not the target demo for this album, but it was so boring that I'm not sure how there's anyone who is in the target demo.

I've never heard this album befroe, but there's a bunch of songs on it I know. Because I've listened to the Hackers movie soundtrack a lot, and there's at least two songs on here that are on that soundtrack.

I don't listen to a lot of dance/electronic music, but when I do, this is the style I gravitate to. You can have it on while working and since there aren't any lyrics, it's not distracting and can sometimes help get you into a flow state.

But it's also not something I'm going to put on extreemly often. At times it's what I'm looking for, but not something that would work all of the time.

It's like a Best Of Compilation, but it's all on one album. Britpop at it's finiest, and some absolutly great songs.

Typical early 90s alt/college rock. If I was a couple of years older, I probably would've been really into them. As it is, it's a good album, one I'm glad I listened to, and one I'll go back and listen to again.

I'm sure they were on a bunch that I can't think of at the moment, but I can just see in my head the number of indie/Miramax movies from the 90s that would've used some of these songs on the soundtracks.

I tend to like folk music, but this one was hard to get into. Her voice can be a little grating, but the lyrics are very pretty. Interesting version of House of the Rising Sun, but I will not be going back to this one anytime real soon.

This is not my favorite Zeppelin album, but it's still very good. A couple of perfect tracks!

It's fine. I like the singles. But like most prog rock, I find many of the songs go on too long, and it's too confusiong for me.

This is probably a 4 star album, but I have so much nostalgic love for it, and the countless times I played it i my car in high school and college that I have to give it a 5.

I must have missed this album rating it. I know I listened to it, but I went ahead and listened again. It's still good.

I like some of the blues licks, but overall it's a forgettable album. Didn't dislike any part of it, though!

As my other reviews have shown, I’m not a big hip hop fan. But the Roots are able to make music that is good and dare I say, I enjoy?

Maybe it’s the live band, maybe it’s that they’re from Philly, I don’t know. But they’re damn good.

Didn’t love it. Didn’t hate it. Some great guitar work, but too jazzy for me. I want lyrics.
