1001 Albums Summary

slower zep. fav track: that's the way

Consistently hilarious (“shut up already, damn!”) while showing all manner of musical prowess and staying funky as hell. Both intimate and all-encompassing. Fav track: forever in my life

incorporates classical in a way i sure like fav track: cans and brahms

a real London record! it's fun to think of bjork as a hot young thing running around the city, maybe saying "fuck John Major" to anyone who will listen. fav track: like someone in love

purty decent, if a little obtuse fav track: havalina

disaffected jazzy krautrock pop by a man obsessed with cocaine. lovely tho fav track: stay

smoky riffy take on the blues. sounds great. fav track: the wind cries mary

fittyleven samples coheres into one funk groove

c'es l'avenir! fav track: percolator

nice work, ya fuckin dimebag. sorry Columbus Ohio killed u fav track: hollow

i am a masochist for this album and it never stops beating me up fav track: super unison

great bossanova like mom and dad did! fav track: Sem Contenção

american equivalent to Sticky Fingers is good, but not better than Sticky Fingers! come on, mick! fav track: whiskey woman

yesterday the american rolling stones (flamin groovies), today the american beatle. what an incredible record. gorgeous way to start the day. fav track: jump into the fire

post-rock lite. certainly could live a very full life without hearing this record. fav track: green eyes

it's a classic for a reason. bad bitch. fav track: 50ft queenie

good post punk. nothing as catchy as “teenage kicks” tho

fucking PRESENCE fav track: long tall sally

solid outing, if overshadowed by their better known work fav track: doin' our own dang

as holy as it is human fav track: hey, that's no way to say goodbye

so good it's not even fair. i will play every track on the jukebox until the end of time.

it's big, it's english, it's the 80s fav track: tears are not enough

brought punk to the mainstream fav track: god save the queen

ridiculous and old timey and la mf prima fav track: jump, jive an' wail

somewhat expectedly beautiful african folk. glad to know it. fav track: lakutshn ilanga

hard, if not impossible, to compare his work to his father's. his shadow looms large but this is still worth a listen! fav track: changes

perfectly balanced and smooth. as good as rap gets. fav track: it ain’t hard to tell

perhaps someday the music of 2002 will appeal to me. but most of it remains offputting and unenjoyable to me in a way i find difficult to describe. fav track: paradise

pleasant, heady britpop fav track: idiot brother

slobberknocker of a genre mixup girded by house music. perfect debut. fav track: around the world

jesus, what a carnival. send me into the ether with this on the stereo. fav track: willie the pimp

Great Album that some call The Greatest Album. fav track: let down

holy fuck! my favorite led zeppelin album and it's really not even close. bluesy and powerful and huge and perfect. fav track: boogie with stu

conceptually kinda enjoyable, weird as hell to listen to. fav track: opus dei

plays like a greatest hits collection, making it full of highs that are somewhat disjointedly sequenced.

good, if toothless, folk fav track: suite: Judy blue eyes

sonically so y2k that it makes me puke, lyrically and melodically childish to the point of grating. i do not like to listen to this. fav track: stuck in a moment you can't get out of

psychedelic classic. feels like acid. fav track: astronomy domine

you know what? i really fuck with it. it's ironic how straightforward alanis is given her most famous song is called "ironic". ok i'm done. fav track: hand in my pocket

classic! i prefer his concept records but this is a real crowd pleaser. fav track: makin' whoopee

badass synth pop that must have sounded like the future in 1982 fav track: promised you a miracle

absolutely cozy and lived-in well-deserved classic. plays like your favorite pair of jeans. fav track: the unfaithful servant

so lilting it would almost be hilarious for someone to walk in while you’re listening to it. fav track: i call your name

silly and biggish 80s British post punk pop fav track: infected

very fine english proto-heavy metal musick fav track: child in time

singular artifact of alternative music. fav track: good feeling

perfect ending!!!! fav track: she came in through the bathroom window
