2/5
Not a Rod Stewart hater really, but this album started as a cluster, didn't have a pace, and kinda went all over. Every Picture Tells A Story (1st track) showed its high quality 1971 production. The band must have been on drugs and the theme just followed through the rest of the album.

Drug infused "rock". Pretty standard late 60's- early 70's. Meh.
Blue Cheer

This is the White Stripes and Jack if he was jamming in the late 60's. Again - late 60's is a rough era for production but I'll give this a solid 3 for jazz infused rock and jam session.

I had never heard of these guys. Based on album cover and 1967 - i figured jazz infused drug rock. I was correct. Not my typical jam but hit a groove. Very Janis + Doors + Grateful Dead.

Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band
2/5
I fail to see how this album is on a 1001 list. The band was all over the place and it sounded like they were trying to ride on the coat tails of the Beatles and other mid to late 60's bands. Pick a genre and stick with it. Maybe lay off the drugs when writing the lyrics. Even if it was written in satire it wasn't executed as a top 1001.

I'm not a folk fan. This was a hard listen and her voice really bothered me. I can see in '67 it may have been "par for the course" but I don't think it holds up to a 1001 list.

Thoughts while listening - currently on track 4 - U-Haft-Muzak of Kollaps by Einsturzende Neubauten...Maybe its the 6:30am listening time (usual time to listen to my album of the day) or maybe its the Mtn Dew I just cracked but I have an overwhelming feeling of anxiousness. I am pretty positive its the music. I'm not an industrial noise fan and...well...these guys are. I will endure.
After thoughts - wow. I can see why these guys would be influential in this genre. I do not need to listen to it again but this full album was bone chilling. I've never felt that way while listening to any music. Abrasive, tingy, annoying, loud, off beat... all of those types of things - but a single once through is needed to understand their influence.
