It's a Christmas Album. And it's good christmas music, and good example of Spector's production. But I can't give a huge rating to an album I'll only listen to once a year at best.

Rated 8/10
I really enjoyed this album. Seems like Nick Cave sang his heart and soul out. Very sad songs, and might be a great rainy day record.
Rated 10/10
This is my favorite Steely Dan album and one I’ve listened to many times in my life. My Dad used to play it a lot, and it holds up. It’s not my typical type of music, but I really love it.
Rated 2/10
Was listening to this one in my car with my daughter. I think my review will just quote her: "Dad, you could've died without listening to this album."
Hard agree, it was terrible. I just don't get Björk
Rated 6/10
It's very pretty. And I could see putting it on if i was in the right mood, but it's not going to get a lot of playtime.
Rated 10/10
Great album. John was always my favorite Beatle, especially lyrically. Some absolutely great songs on this one, especially the title track.
Rated 8/10
Really enjoyed this one, especially from a band I hadn't heard before. Will get more play time from me, for sure!
No. Just No.
Rated 6/10
This is my least favorite of the three Kinks albums I've heard so far (Arthur and Village Green being the other two) but still plenty of fun.
Rated 10/10
Finally got to listen to an album I own on vinyl. Really like this album and it's psychadelic soundscapes. Good stuff!
Rated 6/10
It's a little long, but the more I listen to Tom Waits, the more I like him. Not going to get heavy rotation, but always glad to see him pop up.
Rated 4/10
I liked a few songs. the stripped down drum, bass, vocals thing really does work, BUT it only works for a few songs for me. After 3 or 4 I find myself getting bored. I know that's blasphemy to some, but I just find that I don't really click with hip-hop.
Rated 8/10
I don't think I've ever listented to a The Cure album straight through before today. And the first time I did, I was like, that was sort of okay, I liked it a little. And then an hour later I had to put it on again because I couldn't get the sounds out of my head. It's not that they're lyrically poppy and ear-worms or anything like that, but I think I found my next rainy day album. You know the one you want to put on when it's cold and rainy outside and you don't have to do anythingand you don't WANT to be motivated to do anything. That's what this album is.
I've always liked Tom Petty and this is a good album. It's not my favorite of his, though, but it's very good.
Rated 8/10
I wasn't sure what to expect, but I found myself really liking this album. Great guitar solo on "Baby's On Fire" and while there is some experimental stuff on here, I think most of it works pretty well.
Another fun album by The Kinks. I think I like this one more than Arthur.
Rated 6/10
I really don't listen to much metal. Not really my thing. The guitar solos in this are pretty great, and it's fast and hard and all that is good. But the vocals annoy me.
I liked it more than I expected to
Rated 6/10
It was fine. Couple things I liked. Mostly forgettable.
Rated 10/10
One of my mom's favorite albums so I've listened to it countless times. But that's okay, but it's great. Seriously, first track to last, it's a killer album. I can't think of a thing on it that I would change.
Rated 8/10
Unlike the last "reggae" album that we got on here, this one is actually reggae. And it's good. Very good. And I will listen to it again.
