1001 Albums Summary

Highly poetically technical lyrics over a funky, detailed, masterfully produced session. Didn't love the misogyny and homophobia, which the record failed to say anything interesting with/about. Fave tracks: Straight Outa Compton, Fuck Tha Police, Gangsta Gangsta, Parental Discretion Iz Advised, Something 2 Dance 2 Least Favorite Track: Dopeman

Strong female vocals with driving guitars and a punk sensibility. I really like this! Favorite Tracks: Big Exit, A Place Called Home, One Line, Beautiful Feeling, The Whores Hustle and the Hustlers Whore, We Float. Least Favorite Tracks: Horses In My Dreams

Good ol' rock n' roll with honest, straightforward songwriting. Favorite tracks: Perfect Day, Hangin' 'Round, Walk on the Wild Side, Satellite of Love. Least Favorite Tracks: New York Telephone Conversation, Goodnight Ladies.

Absolutely amazing! Beautiful, poetic lyrics and lovely guitars. Perfect fall album. Favorite tracks: Cracking, Small Blue Thing, The Queen and the Soldier, Knight Moves

Fantastic, epic rock album. Equal parts beautiful and bombastic. Fave tracks: Shine On You Crazy Diamond (1 and 2) and Wish You Were Here.
