A couple of standout songs but, like with most of his albums, they are better to listen to in small bursts instead of one sitting. It just starts to wear on me after a while.

fantastic, slow-jam soul. Not a bad song on the album.

not a beach boys fan but you cannot argue with the production value of this album. Especially considering when it was made, it is just so far ahead of its time that it has to be properly rated.

A very pleasant surprise. I don’t usually enjoy this era of music but this album was very well done.

One of the best true rock ‘n’ roll albums ever made. Every track is a gem. Another classic album from the 90s!

I was optimistic because the album was listed as psychedelic folk music but there was nothing psychedelic about it. It was just a dude and a guitar. Just folk music. Quite boring

One of the 3 best albums to come out of the 90’s (OK Computer, Jagged Little Pill). Easy 5 stars.

I don’t expect this to be a popular opinion, but I have always despised the band. It amazes me that their terrible sounding singer died and they managed to replace him with someone that sounded just like him. This would have been my first one star album out of the 163 that I have rated so far if it weren’t for the fact that the album opens with “Hell’s Bells.” Great opening song for the album, especially considering it was the first release after the original singer died.

Two stars. Not a fan of mindless crotch rock.

Familiar with the band but was only familiar with one song off this album. Half the album was great the other half bordered on unlistenable. I can totally see why it was so influential at the time, though.

Good but random as all hell. One minute they sound like the Doors, the next like a jam band, the next like CCR. That randomness hurt my opinion on the album.

I remember lots of Liz’s stuff in the 90s but I wasn’t familiar with this album. It’s like a singer-songwriter version of angry 90’s chick music. Good but not great.

Thought I hadn’t heard this before but was familiar with more than half the songs. Much better than I thought it would be based on the description and album art.

Good but not as good as her first album.

Norwegian hair metal/glam rock. Surprisingly good!

My first real introduction to Muddy Waters. Would have preferred a studio album versus a live album but it was still a good introduction.

Another singer/songwriter album that I actually enjoyed. A few standout tracks that push it out of boring territory.

Easy five stars. One of the best engineered albums ever recorded. ‘Nuff said.

I was dreading getting this. Not a fan of the king. Luckily it’s only 12 songs and none of them are over three minutes long. But somehow he still manages to sing in about six different made up voices.

Epic, at times theatrical glam rock. A little too over the top but worth a listen.

R&B/Pop classic from the 90’s. What’s not like?
