The way my face lit up when I realised this was a purely instrumental album, don't want any of that 50s singing please! It's somewhere between a 4 and a 5 for me, these songs are an absolute delight to listen to, but it does get a little tiring listening to a whole album of them.

Not really feeling this one. Most of the songs weren't interesting enough due to being too short, and the ones that were interesting obviously ended too soon. Just ended up annoying me really.

Nothing better than a live album where the audience just doesn't shut up. I couldn't even finish it, the songs just plodded along whilst those women were screeching over every word that came out of his mouth. Truly torturous.

Omg bangerrrrr!!! Something about hearing a flute in a rock album just really tickles my brain, absolutely delightful.

I was gonna say something like "1001 album generator users when the album isn't some obscure post-indie-alternative rock album from the 90s 😡", but maybe they've got a point. I can understand why this is here and maybe it should get extra marks for that, but this just isn't something I'll ever see myself revisiting.

5 stars, don't even need to listen to it. Cat Stevens was a household name for us back when I was a kid, many holidays were spent listening to his CDs in the car. I hadn't listened to these songs for a while but I still know all the words 🥺

Sometimes I like to think I've mellowed out a little bit on this journey and, as a result, I'm more receptive to genres I might not have liked initially. Other times the generator gives me stuff like this and I don't really know what to think. This was some really bland, run-of-the-mill country music.

Wish I got this during the summer. Would've been a perfect album for driving along the coast on a lovely sunny day. Those horns are immaculate

Wasn't sure what to expect going into this, but I have to say that this was amazing. Some good lengthy songs with great musicians to make them worth listening to. Will have to revisit this one, especially City, Country, City.

I was in quite a good mood whilst listening to this, which maybe isn't the correct way of listening to it. It's undoubtedly a very emotional album, but one that doesn't resonate with me.

There were moments where I thought it was finally going to get interesting, but it quickly went back to simple country rock.

I'm certain I'm not alone in saying that double albums have a way of being a bit off-putting, especially if it's from an artist I've never heard before. However, I'm pleased to announce that this was really good. Lots of good moments in here, although I may have felt it was starting to drag a little towards the end.

My second diddler this week, which is two too many. It's a shame as well, the music is quite enjoyable and the album art is lovely. Rating it purely on that it's a 3, but that might change later

It's just jazz.

Don't know why I couldn't have had this as my first Bowie album. Then again, I'm sure most of the stuff he released is incredible.

I am quite worried about what album I'll get next though. This is my third 5 star album this week, so I feel like I'm due for an absolute stinker...

This was kind of delightful actually, I think I'm starting to love these guys.

This is somewhere between a 3 and a 4 for me, partly because Buffalo Stance wasn't as good as I remembered but I also thought the other songs were quite good.

🚨 NONCE ALERT!!! 🚨

Halfway through this I was thinking to myself "what does this album offer that hasn't been done before by other hip hop albums?" And I couldn't come up with a good answer.

Usually with hip hop albums as well, I'll find some enjoyment from the instrumentals, but there was something about these that I just couldn't get behind. Maybe it's that early 2000s sound I don't like.
