Rated 8/10
Really liked the first half. You could hear the Bowie and the David Byrne. I'm trying to like the ambient music more, and I almost got it. Overall, though, worth a second listen. That's a 4-star.

I can't believe it's been 15 years or so since I last heard this album. I'm a big fan of Miles' second quintet, so that's what I usually listen to when it's Miles' time. I also tend to listen to In the Silent Way and also the live album Agartha when I need some electrification in my life.
So I forgot how incredible this album is. So mysterious, so improvisational, so brilliant. Five stars forever and ever.
Great singers. And great production even though the guy is a murdering ass. I am not a Christmas music fan, and would grab Ella or frank over this if I need a tinsel hit.
Rated 6/10
Interesting and better than the other U-Tane member album I heard, SZA
Pretty sure I heard this album before when it came out but had forgotten about it. Inventive songs, catchy tunes, and good use of instrumentation make this a 4-star for me.
Rated 6/10
I think the title here is correct. Definitely maybe. Artful noise, much better than the singles I've heard from this band, not sure I would revisit, though.
Rated 8/10
I'm a latecomer to the Doors. Never liked them as a kid. Like them much more now. This is not my favorite of their albums. I actually find their blues a bit derivative, but "Peace Frog" and other songs here are quite good.
Rated 2/10
I am sure this album is for someone, but that someone is not me.
Rated 8/10
Seventies Temptations are my favorite Temptations and some of my favorite funk. "Papa Was a Rolling Stone" is a stone-cold classic. While you can't expect other tracks to measure up to it, there are some jams on this album. A couple clunkers bring it down to four stars. But the Temptations are still where it's at.
Rated 6/10
You can definitely hear where Garage Rock started. Some good guitar solos. I think I'm giving this an extra star because I never heard of them and glad that I have now, but not sure I would listen to this again.
Rated 4/10
I'm sure it's a good album for many, but it's not for me. All the tracks sounded way too similar.
Rated 4/10
I know I should like it. I like so many bands that cite them as an influence. I listened to it twice. Could not get anything out of it. ☹️
Rated 6/10
Enjoyable, but nothing was better than the Sultans of swing.
Rated 10/10
One of my favorite albums of all time. Yes, not every song works perfectly. But together as a piece, I maintain they do.
Rated 8/10
I never listened to Adele before, aside from "Hello," which was everywhere. I was very impressed. There are songs I'll listen to again. Maybe it just hit me at the right moment, or maybe there's something really there that the entire world figured out before I did.
Rated 8/10
Really good. Need to relisten.
Rated 10/10
Classic. Brilliant. Every song
Rated 6/10
Fun, but inconsistent. Album "Mama Said Knock You Out" is still the best song.
Rated 6/10
Another nice listen, but not too many songs stood out
Rated 6/10
Pleasantly interesting but did not hold my attention to the whole album
