I love Soundgarden, but this isn’t the best release they have. There’s a bunch of great songs on here, but the runtime is a bit too long and there’s a number of filler tracks on it. Badmotorfinger also had the better hit singles and deepcuts imoz

It sounds really nice, never been that much of a muddy waters guy though. He doesn’t have the ferocity that John Lee Hooker and Big Mama Thornton have. His playing is immensly great though.

I’ve really grown fond of shoegaze lately. Love this album, but its not quite as good as its successor.

Pretty nice soundscapes. I liked this more than the other electronic albums from this era that have been presented so far, the harder beats and occasional rapping really help it.

Lovely album, feels right at home on a warm summer night. The band plays really soft and gentle. Shame this album isn’t any longer.

Feels like a greatest hits record of the 1980’s. I really like shout and head over heels, the rest of the songs I don’t care much for. The entire production feels very 80’s cheese.

Good album, but I don’t click with it like I do with other golden age hip hop albums. I’ll be sure to keep listening to it though.

Of all the albums of all time, this is certainly one of them.

I was blown away by the production first time I listened to this on LP. Really powerful album, Tracy Chapman really sounds like she means every word she says. The first tracks are the best part of the album, but it only falls off a tiny bit at the end.

Great revitalization of country music. Still sounds incredible and really fun to listen.

Another sophisti-pop album. Tinseltown in the rain is a nice famous song, the rest went in one ear and out the other. Doesn't seem to excel in its genre or borrow enough outside it to be memorable and worth revisiting.

Quite a nice listen. The patrician's choice of 2000's female R&B / Soul artist.

The 2 singles off this album are great, peak 1960s pop music. The other songs are nice with varying levels of interest in them.

Feels a few years ahead of its time. The band is playing really well here.

Pretty nice listen, doesn't feel particularly deserving of being one of the 1001 essentials.

Way better than I expected it to be. Great blend of both the new wave and alt rock of the 1980's. Not that much of a fan of the vocal performances though.

Generic blues rock, thought El Camino was better.

I should like it, based on my preferences, but I cannot seem to get into it. The songs don’t stick with me.

Not often that you find a new album where you already know most of the songs on there. Hugely important band, but I’m not that much of a fan of the Louvin Brothers vocal performance.

One of the first hard rock records ever. Love the distorted noisy guitar on it. Lots of great tracks like Strange Brew, Tales of Brave Ulysses and of course Sunshine of your love. Not every track is as great, but I enjoy listening to all of them.
