A straight up masterpiece.

Fine. Not particularly good or original.

Clearly some good musicianship.

The lyrics and the vocals didn’t do anything to help get it above a 3, though.

1960’s blues rock. Three stars.

It was fine. No Moon Safari.

I just listened to this a couple weeks ago. I relistened. It’s good, but not their best.

I’ve never liked Pet Shop boys. I don’t like their whole synthy, echoey vocal thing. Whenever I hear music like it, I always compare it to Pet Shop Boys.

No shade on people who love their music. That’s great. It’s just not for me.

The hits are great. The rest is pretty good, but didn’t grab me.

I found this on YouTube slipped around to confirm it was all the same thing, and. Posing listen to it.

I hadn’t heard it. Started out really strong and got a bit boring by the end. Evened out to a 4.

A pretty interesting look into the untimely twilight years of a legend. Years of health issues and drug abuse have made her voice sound a little more rough and aged than maybe it should have.

Musically, this is pretty good. This isn’t a 4 for me, but I enjoyed it.

This was fine. I couldn’t help but compare this to the AC/DC we just listened to. I liked this better because the vocal were better, so it earns a 3

Yeah, I don’t know. A lot of this seemed disingenuous. I totally get the “this is boring, unexciting music that was produced via assembly line” criticism

“Workin’ 9 to 5 just to stay alive” and “I probably won’t make no money off this. Oh, well.” Made me roll my eyes pretty hard. And the album had barely started.

Too long, boring, and pandering. I couldn’t make it through.

Pearl Jam gets a bad rap amongst folks whose opinion I care about. So I never really gave them a shot. But this was great.

I couldn’t make it through. It’s the vocals. Wow! Yow! Woooooo.

It’s got this quality I don’t like that I associate with hard rock or power rock, or whatever you want to call it. Sometimes I can give those types of vocals a pass (T-Rex), but it didn’t do it for me here.

There’s a ton of super groups on this list. But I don’t think any Traveling Wilburys?

Anyway, I kind of did not like this.

Holy cow. Those lyrics.

I’m really torn by this n on its own, it’s a 4 or maybe a 5.

I legit think Kanye is/was a creative genius. But also just an awful, awful person. It’s a shame he couldn’t be neutral to good, so I could enjoy his music without guilt.

Anyway, I’ll give it a 3.

A straight up masterpiece. I don’t even care it’s two hours.

Well, I sort of cared. But I just couldn’t let that drag it down.

It’s 2 or 3 five star albums in one.

I finally pulled out my vinyl if this to listen, since it’s not on my streaming service. Is it the best Neil? No. Still a 5? Yeah.
