Part #826 of “I know I should like this even more.” Still, a very high 3.5. Great stuff.

Very solid writing and arrangements. Good stuff. Just not my favorite overall.

I need to be in the right mood for it, but when I am, it kicks major ass.

I just don't get this genre at all. I don't like the tones of the instruments, the overall sound, the singing...it's just not for me, I guess.

Solid funk with just the right amount of dirt on it. I love a good extended jam, but agree that certain parts of “City, Country, City” and the title track slightly overstay their welcome. Still, I dig this one well enough and it could potentially keep growing on me over time.

Perfect performance. No notes.

I much prefer Björk in this environment. It’d be the full four stars if the male singer wasn’t there.

Greg Lake has the perfect voice for this genre, and the production/arrangements/instrument choices on here are all I want from a prog record.

Some really killer songwriting here. It's not my favorite album of all-time by any means, but I can definitely return to this one.

I actually really like “Invaders”, but it’s downhill for me after that. I like some of the punky influences, but Dickinson is just too over the top for me.
2.5/5
Some decent instrumentals and musical ideas. But man, this guy has some of my least favorite vocal inflections of all-time.
2/5
Lots and lots of cool stuff here. Glad this is my first album of his. Room to grow.

Side 1 is very good, and side 2 is *great*. I’d be very surprised if this wasn’t my favorite album of theirs.

I like this so much more than I ever expected I would. This could grow to 4 stars one day.

Lang’s voice is fantastic. Solid arrangements all the way around. Very easy to listen to.

Yeah…this rules. Not my favorite music ever, but holy shit, it’s so damn good.

I do actually like a decent amount of this - she has a great voice and has some really great lyrics - but it’s just not totally my thing from a musical perspective. Could stand a revisit of this someday.

Two albums down for Chic and they are still not for me.

The best stuff is amazing, but there is a fair amount of stuff I’m not crazy about. Still gets the 4 star bump, of course.
