This dude has a great voice and sound. Great rock and roll sound. The album though is very one dimensional with very little else to offer. I can see why its historically important but for me its very samey

Favourite song: Cry to me
Least favourite: nothing is bad but little stands out
Album artwork: Standard cover

This album was great fun. Different to what I was expecting.

Listen and Question 67 and 68 are great tunes. I am man could be Hendrix, I love that song!

Favourite song: Im a man
Least favourite: Free from guitar never needs to be listened to again.
Album artwork: Its a cool cover.

This is very good indie. I have listened to urban hymms before but not this. Its a good and easy listen and I will listen to it again.

There are some great songs on this that you just dont hear very often.

Favourite song: So it goes, On your own and history
Least favourite: All good
Album artwork: Great cover

The opening track is brilliant. Great song that really takes me back to my going out days.

I don’t think I have ever listened to this album all the way through until now. I have always found Arcade Fire to be a good singles band. Some of the music on this album is stunning but the album shows inconsistency.

Favourite song: Suburbs, Modern man and Ready to start
Least favourite: There are quite a few filler songs on this album.
Album artwork: Great cover

Brilliant album.

I really enjoyed this. these songs sounded great live. I will be listening to this again.

Favourite song: Cupid and twisting the night away live were excellent
Least favourite: all good.
Album artwork: Good cover

Never heard of this band before so again I had no expectations and no idea of what to expect.

Loved it, great punk music. very funky. Great sound and punchy lyrics. I shall be exploring their history!!

This is a great album, im giving it a 4!

Favourite song: Return the gift and guns before butter.
Least favourite: Love like anthrax.
Album artwork: Great album cover

I was dreading another Paul Simon album!!

I really like me and Julio down by the school yard and mother and child reunion. apart from that the songs are very similar and the album is very similar to graceland. Which some wold think is a good thing!!

Favourite song: Mother and Child reunion
Least favourite: Duncan, I was not a fan of this at all.
Album artwork: Great jacket

This album is garbage.

A lot of the songs are just noise. If this is in the top 1001 I don’t get it as to why. Star is the saving Grace.

Favourite song: Star
Least favourite: Kawolski
Album artwork: I like the cover more than the album

This was OK.

Its not really my music but there were some good tunes on this. I am not sure ill listen to it again though.

Favourite song: Music makes you loose control is a good tume
Least favourite: Hypnotise
Album artwork: Its a pretty naff album cover

I am not a fan of country music at all, even though it seems to be the thing for 2024.

That said this album was an easy and nice listen with some good songs on it. the songs are country with a hint of pop, fun and engaging. I doubt ill listen to it again but I enjoyed.

Favourite song: Travelling man and the way I see you.
Least favourite: There is not a bad song on the album.
Album artwork: Not one to hang up on the wall at home

I have never listened to this album all the way through. Its now time!!

I had not heard the opening 2 tracks before but thought they were superb, leading into the brilliant common people. Something changed was a really good track.

Favourite song: Common people and disco 2000 are classics.
Least favourite: Every song on this album is really good.
Album artwork: Iconic cover

This is a 5/5 for me. Really good album.

I had never heard of this band or album, so I was intrigued. Reading further into the band there is lots to look into here with Zappa coming in an multiple members leaving. I am looking forward to learning more!

Im giving this a 4. I will be listening to this again

Favourite song: Im not satisfied
Least favourite: they are all worth a listen
Album artwork: Great cover

I genuinely can’t believe this album has made it into this group of albums.

It’s OK britpop at best! Some nice songs but a lot of filler

Favourite song: Standing next to me is a tune!
Least favourite: the chamber
Album artwork: nice

This is a top album, a true classic, and one where every track hits.

The Clash’s debut album feels like the blueprint for British punk. It captures the energy, attitude, and urgency of the time perfectly. It’s raw, fast, and direct, but there’s also a sharpness to the songwriting that lifts it above a lot of other punk records from the same era.

Tracks like White Riot and Remote Control are punk at its absolute best, full of aggression and purpose, but still tight and memorable. The whole album moves at pace and never really lets up, which is exactly what you want from a record like this.

Favourite track: White Riot, fast, aggressive, and completely iconic
Least favourite track: London’s Burning, still good but doesn’t hit the same level as the rest
Album artwork: Iconic, simple and instantly recognisable

I can see why people like this and why the album is important but I really cant get into Jazz at all.

This is very much posh resturant music for me.

This was always going to be a challenge for me because techno is not really my thing.

Track one, Forever, genuinely felt like it was going to last forever. I appreciate the layering and the slow build that electronic fans enjoy, but I struggle with long instrumental passages that do not evolve enough to keep my attention.

I Wish I Had Duck Feet is a brilliant track title, but unfortunately not a brilliant track. The whole album felt like being back in Cyberdog in Camden in the mid nineties. All neon lights and relentless beats, but not much emotional connection for me.

I can hear the craft in the production and the ambition behind it, but as a listening experience it just is not something I connect with.

Favourite song: None stood out for me
Least favourite: The overall sound never clicked
Album artwork: I actually really like the cover. Bold, colourful and far more engaging than the music for me

I am not a fan of a guitar solo. I found maggot brain (the track) to be a hard start to the album. Its also so out of place when you hear the rest of the album.

The album picked up though, can you get to that is a fun track and hit it and quit it really kicked the album off in style and set the tone for the music and direction.

This is a fun listen. Very early psychedelica and good psychedelica

Favourite song: can you get to that
Least favourite: Maggot brain
Album artwork: the cover suits the album

This album contains everything. Soul, Funk and Blues. It was good fun at the start.

I really enjoyed the Cisco kid, But after a while the album got repetitive with long instrumentals kicking in from city country city.

Favourite song: the cisco kid
Least favourite: City, country city was far too jazzy for me
Album artwork: Brilliant

It's long in tracks whcih was intimdating when starting the album, In reality the songs are short length, quick, loud and catchy. Quality punk!! but not something I would listen to again

Favourite song: Nothing really jumped out to me as a wow song. Nothing was long enough to lend itself to be a favourtie.
Least favourite: cohesion. I couldnt see the point in this song.
Album artwork: Meh

Love it!!

There are some lovely songs on this album

ontop of the big hitters I love She belongs to me, Maggies farm and Its alright Ma.

Favourite song: subterranean homesick blues is a great opener and Mr Tambourine man
Least favourite: 115th dream
Album artwork: Great cover
