I was never an experimental rock guy, let alone a Tom Waits guy. I'm into blues, but I don't think this album reaches the same blues vibe as other greats like Are You Experienced or Exile on Main Street or Led Zeppelin I. Still, I found it to be perfect as an experimental album. The conventional structures are relatable and familiar, while the sounds themselves are unconventional and highly experimented on. Neither get in the way of each other, creating an equilibrium. All I have to say.

Rating: 100. But gonna vote it off quickly because I feel Led Zeppelin I, Are You Experienced, Disraeli Gears, and Exile are far more deserving of the number one position.
Because they're better or because they're more blues rock?
