1001 Albums Summary

Not my cup of tea. A bit too chaotic and all-over-the-place, although I did enjoy the last track, "Monkey in Your Soul"

I recognize the artistic and societal impact this album had on other performers in the 1960s, and I enjoyed the window into this bit of history. The music, however, was not my cup of tea.

My favorite album by The Clash, and one of my all-time favorite albums by any band. I love the loose, live feel of their performances, as well as the ska influences. The track "Death or Glory" is one of my favorite songs.

I am not a big fan of the atonal noise-pop music of Sonic Youth, although there were a few tracks that I would listen to again: Starpower, In The Kingdom #19, and Bubblegum

You don't have to take drugs to listen to this album, but it would help.

It's not bad, but it's my least favorite album by The Police, so I'm giving it three stars.

Such a weird album. It was as if Tom Jones had recorded an album about prostitutes, venereal disease, why dogs are better than women, drugs, and psychosis.

This album was very Bowie-esque, which makes sense considering that David Bowie wrote most of the instrumentals and produced the album. I liked "Dum Dum Boys", but mostly because of the instrumental backing track.

Not my cup of tea, but I appreciate the interesting slice of history represented by the murder ballads and gospel songs the brothers recorded.

Vulgar, tuneless, atonal. Unlistenable.

I have respect for Cee Lo as a creator and producer, but I found this album too monotonal for my taste.

I liked It's Tricky and Walk This Way, but not much else.

Another album of which I was completely unaware, and liked more than I expected to. I particularly enjoyed "Run".

I like the combination of soul, punk, and ska, but I've never really liked Kevin Rowland's voice and vocal style.

John Lydon of The Sex Pistols showed that you don't have to be able to sing to be a lead vocalist, and The Buzzcocks took that information and ran with it.
