"Not terrible, definitely not great either lol. This made Trout Mask Replica much easier to listen to. Whatever you called this, I call this "proto-punk" because of the instrumentation and Yoko's screeching. Ringo's drumming is just fantastic." Reply

"This is a pretty fun indie pop record with some cool sounding electronic elements. Not as good as their first record however. It starts feeling a bit to repetitive towards the end and a couple of the songs could be trimmed down in length" Reply
"Little known, highly influential. This is one album that is regularly quoted by the artists listed on lists. If the musicians that are on the lists would create their own lists, this album would regularly be found in the Top 10s. How come this album not gets picked by amateurs? It is likely a pro..."

"Released in 1975 this is a compilation of 14 tracks from their first 3 albums plus the single Fernando. It gelled together as an album though and was a massive seller in the U.K." Reply

Still, it's a great album with plenty of detail and intrigue. I've been reading that this album is not an easy one to get into, but I'm not sure that's entirel..." [+] Reply
"He recorded 5 albums for Geffen in the 1980's this IMO is the best. Not a great Young album but better than its current position (40th out of 55) As the title suggests it is a folk/country album. Misfits and Bound for Glory are the best tracks." Reply

"Despite many of the songs sounding the same, The Better Life manages to entertain." Reply
