1001 Albums Summary

An amazing intro to young Elvis. Whether it was cultural appropriation or bringing a new type of music to an audience who wasn't as openminded as we are today, it's still a fun listen.

So futuristic and influential. Creative and fun funk music.

Lots of classic songs. Mix of soul and western. Vocals are cool, have swagger and super distinct. Not a lot of diversity.

Solid album. She was way ahead of her time.

One of the best albums of all time.

Started strong, but it was fine. Solid album, just not amazing to us.

Other than The Look of Love, this felt almost unlistenable.

Metallica playing with the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra really accentuated the theatricality of their songs. I don't think I'd listen to it every day, but it's a good intro to Metallica.

Amazing voice, raspy and rocks out.

Amazing chill album

Wasn't looking forward to it, but was surprisingly good. Lots of catchy stuff.

It's fine. Not to our taste.

Lots of swearing and violence. Some good songs, but this was a different time

Great album. I wasn't familiar with individual songs, but it's a great mix.

Other than "Where is my Mind?" not for us. Too loud and too fast. I've never felt older.

Solid album.

AMAZING. One of my favourite albums.

Really good album. Great rhymes and flow.

I never listened to it before, but the mix of vocal and instrumentals is great. Nice introduction for me, but a favourite for her.

Maybe the best three-song start to any album ever? Don't think I ever appreciated how prolific and talented Prince was when he was alive.

Some classic songs, felt like it really captured the era in the U.K.

Okay album. The music was okay. Pretty diverse mix of influences.

Really catchy, gem I never would've found.

A few good singles, but hard to listen to.

Amazing world music. My first listen, but not my partner's.

"It sounds like background music you'd hear at a bar."

Never heard this before, but it was pretty good music. Not too intrusive, but perfect for the early evening.

Good beats. Nice collaborations.

Solid album. Testify was my favorite skit song.

Good rock album.

Creative, but hard to listen to.

Amazing album. It's so easy to overlook Stevie Wonder sometimes, but this album is always worth coming back to.

Fun album. First time listebjbg

Hard to listen to at points

It's a different album. It's not something good all of the time, but it's really well made.

It's a classic for a reason. Experimental and beautiful.

We would never have listened to this album if not for the 1001 Albums list. Really good and surprisingly catchy.

This was a musical journey. It was weird to start, but by the end it was really good.

It was pretty experimental for a rock group, but not great to listen to.

Only two songs, but amazing. The sections weave seamlessly together.

Didn't realize how many great songs there on there. Some experimental stuff that must have been crazy back when it came out. Really good album.

Classic album with amazing songs.

Surprisingly bluesy.

It's fine.

Great album. Stripped down and so good.

Classic album.
