A tricky one. It does what it aims to do well, but it's still just background music

Santana's guitar playing is good enough to get it to 4

I loved this album when it came out, and still lots of fun.

Very unremarkable 80s pop funk.

I'd never heard of them before, and I'd never missed not having them in my life.

Such a change from my usual music, but interesting enough to get 3

Fantastic song writing, and rocks hard.

Maybe.doesnt move much past loveless, bit still great

Fine, but also kind of unexceptionable late 60s early 70s rock.

Abrasive, but in a good way.

A bit sameish at times, but I'll always happily listen to Mark Knopfler play guitar.

Has some absolute bangers, and also enormously influential on lots of bands I love.

It turns out I Iike English folk rock, although these guys aren't as good as Fairport Convention

Pretty and sad.

I kind of prefer poppy Abba. Maybe they would have gone in an interesting direction post this, but this isn't that memorable.

Amazing beautiful album.

Even without the allegations l, I was never a huge Michael Jackson fan , and this hasn't changed my mind.

Strange and disturbing, but also has moments of beauty.

The story of his life is so sad

Definitely the grand fathers of Franz Ferdinand.

Ok, but not memorable enough to really stand out.

Ozzy (and the rest of the band) were really legends.

It reminded me of the time I was very stoned and 17, and playing my guitar, except these guys are way more talented than me.
