Meh
Bit Shit.
Was decent.
- fun country-esque energy - dreamy with engaging solos but no distinct hooks - muddy drums and vocals
Not really my vibe.
It was OK. Not really vibing with these suggestions so far
It's exist I guess
Idk if it's just old but didn't really standout to me
Too much Boomer in this for me
Explosive intro. Scared the shit out of me lol Mr.Soul sounds like the foundations of I Can't Get No Satisfaction, but the tone works well together. Vocally and with the instruments in general. But I think I hear some cutting going on with the distortion guitar? Not too sure. A Child's Claim To Fame, completely different group. Surely? Not even the same tone and feel as the first song. Was a bit off-putting, hearing distortion guitars one second, the next it's a country ballad. Hmmmm. Everydays - Live....a live performance midway through an album? Who decided that was okay? I mean, the tone still fits but the refinement is a little jumbled compared to the studio recorded tracks. Maybe I'm just too used to Live performances being counted as bonus tracks. I don't know... Expecting to Fly, another tone change. A very mellow ballad now. Continuing the country sound rather than the distortion. I've now come to terms with the fact I'm listening to a soft rock country album. But this is a very nicely put together song. Definitely one for the fluffer mix, or a stoner mix. Both moods work for this slow jam. Bluebird gives some energy back into the album now. Proper 60's sound coming off this song. Really using everything this song, all the guitars. Hung Upside Down; did they switch singers? And guitar pedals? I have so many questions about this album I will never get the answers to. Sad Memory; definitely the singer flexing them vocal chords. Basic songwriting at the least though, but consistent. Though the ending just happens; hm. Good Time Boy reinforces my question of asking if they keep switching lead singers. But it sounds more soulful this time around, than rocker or country. What is with all the change ups? Rock & Roll Woman; not too impressive. Sounds like a Beatles reject. But fits the tone of the album. Broken Arrow; not too sure what the hell is happening on this song. Is it a live performance or not? Why the inclusion of the crowd intro? And why couldn't I hear the vocals for the first part? This one is definitely a groaner. And wtf is up with the merry go round synthesizer? Overall, this album struggles to maintain a consistent tone and the songwriting is basic in my opinion. A few good songs here and there, but the lack of consistency makes this a miss for me. 2 stars.
Fine. Was on in the background so maybe didn’t give it enough of a chance, but it did nothing to grab my attention. Not offensive though
Nothing really grabbed me from this album. It was fine, but I didn’t think there were any tracks that made me sit up and listen. The lost listenable of all the psych rock albums we’ve had so far though.
Meh
It was short! That’s pretty much all I got on this one. There was a fleeting moment with one song where Neil Young’s voice drew me in for a second, but the rest of it kinda just glossed over me. Wonder if The Simpsons ever made a Buffalo Shelbyville joke in an episode, hmm…
It's fine, mostly forgettable. No song as good as "For What It's Worth" though.
Usually I can dig old folks rock like this, but not a lot of this stuck with me, and in fact some of it wasn't very good at all, like that weird James Brown pastiche.
60’er Folk/country rock, Niel Young, album-rock
This is right in that time period I don't want to hear any more of, but is completely "over-represented" in the list.... Ok, first song is alright, but after that it heads into folky country territory and doesn't really come back out. Sigh. They really need to trim all this shit out of later editions of the book. 2/5.
New to me and couldn’t ret into it. ‘Everyman’ was ok
1. zoul - 0 2. fame - 1 3. dayz - 1 4. fly - 1 5. blue - 1 6. hung - 2 7. zad - 2 8. boy - 1 9. rock - 1 10. arrouu - 1
The beigest, dullest album I have ever heard. No redeeming features. It just...exists. If punk was the Blank Generation, then this album surely represented the Bland Generation. Forgotten everything about it within 30 seconds of it finishing.
There are a lot of bands in the 60s who sound like each other. These are a byrds pastische who themselves were a bit iffy. This a long drawn out bore of an album
Fell asleep
Neil Young grates on my nerves
Uneventful and way too safe. Yes, I am bringing back the term 'safe'
I'm Gen-z, for the love of God. Next!
This album feels like it can’t make up its mind what it’s wants to be. Too many song writers, too many styles.
I love all genres of music, and I almost always have something good to say, but this album sucked.
Not my jam - just not a fan of Neil Young.
Don't care for this at all
Not my beaker of bologna I like the album cover a lot tho
Not for me. 1/5
BS has a crazy amount of session players on this short minutes wise LP. Scares me to think they let Neil Young near a microphone. This is not for me. Boo.
Album is great until Neil Young sings. His voice just grates me.
Not for me. Bit basic bitch.
The main refrain / lick / riff on Mr. Soul sounds like a watered down (I can't get no) Satisfaction by the Rolling Stones. This album, this band, just not for me. I wanted to like the horns and such on "Good Time Boy" but the overall feel was a very week imitation of Otis Redding....... The horns sounded great it was just the rest of the that was weak.
Yet more boring pap.
Very forgettable. Nothing stood out to me or captured my attention.
Not for me.
Couldn't finish it
Fuck Neil Young and the horse he rode in on.
Apart from the opening track, Mr Soul, the rest was pretty forgettable.
Nah, didn't enjoy this.
It just couldn’t end quick enough. I detest all the shit-stains left behind by The Byrds’ psychedelic unraveling.
Didnt like this one at all. 34 minutes of twang that I did not care for, with singing that wasnt that great either. Somehow the mixing sucked too, I did not enjoy having all the drums go to my right ear.
Good rock band out of the 60’s. 60’s sound , for sure. Other then the song,”For what’s worth”, no real long lasting song.
A mish mash of sound-a-like 60s nothingness. Completely forgettable.
This is an awful album. I have no idea how it could have made this list. I am dumber for having listened to this.
This album peaks with the first song, and that first song isn't even that good, so that should tell you something
AGAIN?!!????????
Oof
hippy garbage
nope
I keep waiting for an album I've never heard to shock me with how much I enjoy. This wasn't the album. Thought it kicked off ok with Mr Soul, then went straight to hell. Giving out bonus half point because I'm pretty sure I heard a portion of take me out to the ballgame on an organ. F the Yankees. 1 it was music. 1.5 with bonus
I either hate the voice or i hate the instruments OR BOTH i hate this, the only song i partially like is the first 30 seconds of bluebird i despise this album
Very meh….nothing special at all….
Nothing special, opening track was pretty good but overall not memorable
Nicht so meins
Не мое
Woke up tied up in the back of a van this morning. I'd been beaten and battered and had another man's semen dripping down my face, but the worst thing was that this album was playing. Absolute torture.
Edes spottarin mukaan isoimmat hitit ei kolahtanut millään tavalla. Teki mieli lopettaa kesken
Didn't really care for this album. It felt like it was trying really hard to be super poignant and original, but it fell flat on my ears.
