1001 Albums Summary

4.5 stars. Loved the Rockabilly tones. The country was strong with such lovely bluesy undertones. Vocals are on point on this and an 11 minute cover of a Soul Classic in heard through the grapevine is the perfect ending. Which sadly eclipses the actual last song on the album.

A nice little compilation. Shame Phil Spector sullied his careers works by being a murderer. Musically 5/5. Morally 0/5.

I enjoyed the groove. Not my scene.

I’ve listened to this recently as part of a resurgence in interest of classic rap. This is a quality album. Each song flows with the aggression and urgency against the system that it’s lyrics highlight.

Already a firm favourite. I get lost in the guitar before getting kicked by the angsty vocals. Love the backing vocals on this album. People forget the voice is another instrument. Quality

Yeh not down with the jazz fusion. Palatable but nothing but background noise.

Whiny and pretentious

Comfortably Numb is a masterpiece. I got a little lost with the rest of it. Never really understood PF.

Soothing. The man must have been high when he wrote this album.

I think this is the weakest QOTSA album and not entirely sure why it’s on this list?

I went through a real Lou Reed phase last lockdown. Love how honest and raw this album is.

Enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I did.

I enjoyed this album. A lot of similarities with Velvet Underground and The Doors. Sleepy punk.

Exceptional. The keys and the rambling guitar over the top of the funky bass. Amazing.

I’m a metal head and this is one of the worst things I’ve ever listened to.
