1001 Albums Summary

Chilled out listening. Instrumentals and guitars. Nick's voice is really good. Takes me back to the good days of songs being sung.

An old favourite, straight from the 80's. Intelligent pop. Annie Lennox voice is always incredible.

Not listened to stone roses for years. Looking forward to this one. Enjoyed that, I'd forgotten that they can be quite chilled out

Great album. Some absolute classics on this album. Great guitar, just a great album

Not really listened to a lot of Bowie, this should be interesting. You forget what a classic, and how pervasive Bowie was. Even though I'm not a particular fan, I still recognised a lot of those songs. Good album, enjoyed it, but probably wouldn't pull it out specifically to listen to again.

Ooh interesting, an artist I've not heard of before. Looking forward to listening to this one. Not so fussed on this one. Very light and quirky, and it reminds me so much of someone I can't put my finger on it. Alright background listening, not one I'd sit and listen to. Got bored after 30 minutes at the sameness of it. Didn't listen anymore (long album as well!)

A classic. Not actually listened to an album of Frank. Let's see how it goes. What's not to like? It's Frank doing his swinging thing.

No ideas what to expect! Well I'm not sure why that was on a list of 1001 albums to listen to. It sounded like your stereotypical late 60's/70's album

Oookay?? Not what I was expecting given the cover art! Think Doors lite, without Jim. Mainly instrumental 60's rock. Ok, but nothing mind blowing.

A classic album, what can be said, Beatles at their best.

An artist I know, but never really listened to.

It's ELO nuff said. Great songs.

Another classic from the beatles

Forget how distinctive a sound trex have. Enjoyed it.

Looking forward to this classic!!! 👍 Not listened to that for years. Only one I remember is seven seas of Rhye. You forget how good their early stuff was.

Not sure about this one. I'm aware of devo, how avantr Garde they were, amazing look and distinctive sound especially for the time. But not for me. Gave it 15 minutes, the songs were so samey.

This might be enjoyable, can't remember the songs on it. Forgot what a banger this was. Might be cheesy and corny, but It took me back to my teenage years..really enjoyed this one.

Started off really interesting. I like the voices, and music. The lyrics got a bit annoying. Enjoyed it though, very Bjork kind of feel.

Not bad, bit didn't feel compelled to listen to all of it.

You can't beat Ella's voice, and paired with Gershwin.....classic. But as an album to listen to, I prefer her soul or blues stuff. For me that's where her voice comes into its own.

No idea what to expect here. Brian has such huge range in his work. 😊 Enjoyed this. You wouldn't think it was the same guy who wrote music for airports!

There's a reason he's been around so long. Thoroughly enjoyed this.

Used to love divine comedy, ages since I heard them. Wonder if this has my lovely horse on it? 😉 I'd forgotten how bloody good they were. Thoroughly enjoyed that and will listen again.

Enjoyed a blast from the past

Not entirely sure what that was, but i don't think I'm a fan!

A lot of songs not available. But some nice 70's funk, a lot of duff dated stuff now though.

Early genesis...should be good.

Classic!

Now this I can understand being on the list!!

Good 60's hippy album.

Nothing mind blowing, pleasant, enjoyed it, but ok

Some blues! Should be interesting. Yeah, that's not blues. Not a fan. Lots of screaming and shouting and out of tune music......the brief bits I listened to.

Didn't listen to it all, but might revisit.

Not a fan of punk to be honest. Don't listen to much if this.

Not bad, a bit generic.

Alright, never been a big fan of Elvis Costello

I know he's a legend, but never really been my thing. I'll give it a go. Not my cup of of tea.

Good fun.

I like the coral. You forget some of the classic they knocked out.

Some classics

Won't even be trying this. Reggae is a genre I just can't get away with.

Classic Clapton blues

Nice album, good listening.

Really liked that, different

This should be good. Not treadmill listening though!

Not too bad. 80's Rock chick

Brilliant stuff. Listened in bed and it was perfect. Mellow, nostalgic. Reminded me of old school radio shows, very atmospheric.

Not a huge fan of the stones but this wasn't bad.

This was a nice surprise. A weird mix of instrumental, punk and new age ambient!

Great soul.and funk. 👍

Won't listen to this. Beyond the famous ones, I don't like ska.

Not bad

Not my thing

Don't think I was that fussed on suede

Love miles

What I heard I enjoyed. Chilled hip hop.

Not bad

Not fussed

Listened to a bit. Not bad

Brilliant. I've loved a lot of these songs for a while but never realised it was this album.

I've a feeling this is not for me! Nope!

Love boards of Canada. About time we had some ambient. 😁

An album of two halves. At first I was pleasantly surprised. I didn't think I liked velvet underground. But was enjoying some classic 60's rock/prog rock. The last half got a bit too discordant for my tastes though.
