Zombie

scheiße

Not for me

No

Ну не мое совсем, афро бит

bad

Not mine style of music

Not for me.

First "jazz" album I didn't enjoy although I guess this is trending more funk than jazz. Either way, not for me.

I thought I loved jazz but I think this is too experimental and too mucn for me so maybe I don't love it as much as I thought.

2 albums on this list from Fela Kuti and yet only one for Otis Redding...WTF

Yeah, I still hate jazz.

Not my thing

Couldn't get into it...

The album was so good until they started "singing" aka saying zombie over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over. 1/5. The instrumental sections were good but sadly I cannot overlook 5 minutes of someone saying zombie. Genuinely the opening track ruined the album. Still listened to the rest, they just didn't change my rating.

I do not like long mainly instrumental songs/albums

It’s really almost a perfect album.

4 songs, all at least 15 minutes.

Not something I would listen to again. Instrumentals are all off and out of tune with the lyrics throughout the entire album.

Oh, four songs? Nice! Oh, it's still almost an hour. No. No thanks. Listened for 5 minutes then turned it off. I hate this album.

Interesting. But not really my cup of tea.

I feel like I'm on some sort of drug (or should be) during these. 4 (long) songs on the whole album is crazy.

really?

gostei não. Achei longo e tedioso apenas

Tá aí algo que eu nunca iria ouvir na minha vida normal

Booo

I don't like the trumpet sound and his songs sound boring to me. The trumpet is supposed to entertain me until the vocals come in but instead it's one dimensional and feels more like a music for some cultural festival rather than a song I would put on and let play for 10 minutes. He's an ok singer I wouldn't say he showcases some special level of singing skill as well in his songs. The worst album so far. Feels disconnected. If I could go lower I would.

Having read the background on this album, I appreciate the intent behind it and the risks Fela, and the band, took to produce it. That said, I find this largely irritating. Each song being both very long and very repetitive, I wonder if this is supposed to be trancey, in which case you've got to be out of your gourd to appreciate it. I get that other people really get something out of this, I just have no idea why. I've never understood why it takes, for example, 13 minutes of a repeating pattern with intermittent, random, soloing to 'say' something. I suspect this will appeal to those to get Davis' 'Kind of Blue' style jazz but, with respect, not for me.

Jesus

Not my cup of tea.

Pretty cool jam sesh. Pretty neat to hear such a vibrant style and performance, but just not for my listening pleasure

Zzzz

Eh Nah.

This is an Nigerian funk jam band. The story behind the album is more interesting than the album itself. It's a protest album against the Nigerian military. Its release resulted in the military attacking Kuti's cult compound. This is a weird combination of a brain washing cult actually being right about the government. Anyway, the music is protest music in the vein of funk jam. None of which interests me.

Jazz with the tribal chanting over it was cool at first but now all these albums literally the exact same

Náði þessari plötu ekki...

I can't, it's making my anxiety race along with the music.

1 1/2
