It's ok, but nothing I find very special. I'd rather listen to this as a whole album than the Anita yesterday, but this doesn't have a single song better than Sweet Love. 2/5

Pleasant enough, but also a bit forgettable- 2/5

Gene Clark ~ No Other

I'll give it a 3/5. Not sure how often I'd revisit this, but I could see pairing some of these tunes with guys like Townes Van Zandt in a playlist and having a laid back afternoon.

I love this Gene Clark record. @D Jilla gave it to me when he had me as Secret Santa. It's a perfect bit of Country Rock elevated. It was supposed to be a double album, but the record company didn't like it and refused to release it. It was considered extravagant at the time both in it's budget and studio excess. It is a unique artistic statement that is ambitious and I think pretty damn perfect. (5 stars)

I'm mildly annoyed with myself for forgetting about this when the album came up:



But I got an email from Dorian Wood today announcing the release of a new album and that jogged my memory of this video, which was my introduction to Dorian Wood 10 years ago, which took me down a deep rabbit hole I haven't visited in a while.

 

[Whiteout75]

I love Gene Clark, and although I actually prefer his more acoustic, country leaning stuff like White Light and the stuff he made as Dillard and Clark with "Fantastic Expedition", this album is a great achievment. 4 stars.

I’ve not given much time to Roxy Music, so looking forward to giving this a listen.

Okey-dokey.

There is something different about my copy, just can't put my finger on it

 

[jamieanderson1968]

Not in my top 3 of Roxy Music, still a solid record. Thrill of it All and All I Want are both solid rockers. But this is no For Your Pleasure or Avalon.

3/5 (just barely)

Your Roxy Music copy and my toilet-less Mamas and the Papas album like to hang out because they’re both prudes

Roxy Music ~ Country Life

First spin didn't do a whole lot for me. Enjoying it more the second time around - particularly the heavier tracks - Thrill of It All, All I Want, and Casanova. The middle songs - If It Takes All Night, Bitter Sweet, and Triptych - while being good examples of different musical styles really end up distracting me. 3/5

Seems like decent glam to me, will need to spend more time with it at some point. Anyhow, gave it a 3 for now.

@Joe Mac reading up a bit, I guess it's his politics?

Those that know frech, should I look up translations for the lyrics or just enjoy the music as I have in the past. I understand that it might be less than um... woke... for lack of a better word.

This is an album I'd seen and known about most of my life but only heard for the first time last September when I got back from a trip out @Turbo's way and he gifted me a copy.
