TommyThe Who

Rated 6/10

A straight person's idea of a musical. At least it's a fully conceptual "album" better than some of the albums on this list...

The Yes AlbumYes

Rated 6/10

I love me some yes. That being said, I really hope this isn't the only yes album, because this band just gets weirder and more grandiose after this. All positives in my book.

It feels like a band that seems to be in between genres and probably brought about other bands. I think I respect the band, but I don't think I like to listen to it.

Feels like he is running out of ideas? The singles are 100% jams, but the rest just feels like parts of beatles songs that was never really flushed out. I think he thinks so too as he does a lot of reprises from the hits.

NevermindNirvana

Rated 10/10

I never really liked Nirvana. I think I was born just a few years too early. But re-listening to it (probably for the first time in 20 years), I forgot how many singles were on this album. That and I just know all the songs...

Its a hard album to listen to. But I feel if I listened to it a few more times it would grow on me. Gets an extra star for that I guess

When I heard this was going to be turned into a musical I couldn't imagine. Now listening to this the whole way through, it's amazing they didn't sooner.

Big meh for me. Just feels like he's pulling from obscure late 70s folk and not adding anything to it. There are plenty of bands that do what he does of that era that isn't pastiche
