Beastie Boys
5/5
5 stars. Can you think of a more surprising second album? Licensed to Ill was largely an unserious party rap/rock record that had massive success. This album was an effort to move away from that and to be a bit more serious. That said, this album arrived prior to their later "enlightenment" so it still has some of the things that hadn't aged particularly well in License to Ill. From a production standpoint they got lucky as this album snuck in just prior to the changes in copyright law that would have impacted the heavy sampling. A year or two later and this album could have never happened.

In general I'm not a Kanye fan and I was surprised by how well this captures the time and place of a period in hip hop. Has this album changed my overall feelings about Ye? Not really.
The Louvin Brothers

Orbital
3/5
What can I say? It was Orbital being Orbital. Weirdly I've seen them live twice.
Spiritualized
3/5
I've always found spiritualized as good ancillary music. Something you can have on, without it demanding your attention.
Kendrick Lamar
4/5
In a time where beats have come to rule hip hop at the expense of lyrics Kendrick Lamar pushed back.
Elvis Presley

I kept thinking, "yep this is Elvis. I wonder if he wrote any of this?"
Sarah Vaughan

Duran Duran

I feel like I should have something to say about this album, but I don't.
Aerosmith

I couldn't listen to this, not because of any technical problem, or from a lack of time, but more because I dislike Aerosmith a great deal.

Red Snapper

Bob Dylan

A classic.
Animal Collective
4/5
I listened to this album a lot over the years. Even listened to it again last week. I think it came out the year I moved to Potsdam.
Herbie Hancock
4/5
Echo And The Bunnymen
2/5
This was fine, I don’t see myself returning to it again and again though.
Jefferson Airplane
4/5
Good stuff. Made better by Luke’s research.
R.E.M.
3/5
This is not a front to back, beginning to end type of record for me.
Aretha Franklin
4/5
Cypress Hill
2/5
The album starts strong, but I lost interest soon after. Probably wouldn't be the Cypress Hill album I'd pick for this list.
Sonic Youth
3/5
I’ve never listened to this album in full before. Seems like a precursor to a lot of rock that came after.
Neil Young & Crazy Horse
4/5
I listened to this one 3-4 times over the course of the day yesterday.
Paul Simon
4/5
Nirvana
5/5
It's on here for a reason, and not just because the guy is suing about his baby dong being on the cover. I really enjoyed listening to this again.
The Strokes
2/5
Seemed fine. I never really listened to them before and I probably wouldn't seek them out after hearing this album.
Fever Ray
3/5
Never listened to Fever Ray before. Will definitely return to this album, and check out others. It's a good album for when I'm doing things around the house.
Louis Prima
3/5
There’s a kitschy yet delicious Italian restaurant here. This album made me want to walk over there for a bite to eat. Would listen again.
Fleet Foxes

forever a fan of fleet foxes
k.d. lang

Kinda boring to me. Lang ain't my thang?
The Black Keys

Tom Waits
3/5
Anytime I put on a Waits album it's the same thing, a rough discordant start, that I'll eventually settle into and enjoy.
Korn
3/5
If you asked me which album's bass would push the limits of my Sonos 1s, I wouldn't have guessed it'd be a Korn album. Yet here we are...
I was also surprised by how enjoyable revisiting this album was as a 40 year old.
Richard Thompson
3/5
This album seems like it influenced a lot of early 00s indie acts.
ABBA

The Triffids
2/5
I could barely finish this one. Not for me.
Lambchop
3/5
Never listened to this before, though I'm familiar with the cover of this album. That said the cover, and perhaps the name had me expecting something a lot closer to early 2000s pop punk and I'm glad that's not what I got.
Bob Dylan
3/5
Solid album, but to me doesn't match Blood on the Tracks.
The Cure
3/5
Portishead
5/5
One of the best.
Arctic Monkeys
2/5
I never listened to the attic monkeys before and I’m ok with that decision.
Soundgarden
2/5
I believe this was the first CD I ever bought. I haven't listened to this album in probably 20 years and expected to enjoy listening to this now more than I did. I guess my nostalgia for other bands of the era doesn't apply to Soundgarden.
The Magnetic Fields
3/5
Foo Fighters

Youssou N'Dour

The Prodigy
3/5
Ahh memories.
Leonard Cohen
5/5
David Bowie
4/5
Anytime a Bowie album pops up here or elsewhere I always end up thinking to myself, “I don’t listen to Bowie enough”
Nightmares On Wax
2/5
I like this album just fine as a background album, one I can put on while working, or reading. I don't quite understand why it's included in this list.
Saint Etienne
3/5
This was better than Smoker's delight, in terms of background music. It also offered just enough to be more than background music. However will I be reaching for it often? No, I will not.
Beatles
3/5
Pretty good. Do these guys have any other albums?
Eminem
4/5
22 years later and this album is no less transgressive than the day it was released. This was definitely the sound of 1999-2000, though I probably won't listen to it much in the 2020s.
Thundercat
3/5
Anita Baker
3/5
This album was incomplete and scrambled for me on spotify. So take this rating with a grain of salt.

I'm never rushing to put on a Talking Heads album, but I'm never unhappy to stumble across one.
Bob Dylan
4/5
David Holmes
3/5
I didn't hate it, would listen to it again. Seems very specific to the era in which it was created.
Gene Clark
3/5
Fairport Convention
2/5
I dunno. It was fine. I don't ever see going back to it though.
The Beach Boys
4/5
Sigur Rós
3/5
I like Sigur Ros, and I like putting on one of their albums while I'm going things around the house. However I'm not sure how they make the list of 1001 albums but I guess that could be said for how I feel about a lot of these albums.
Finley Quaye
3/5
The Roots
5/5
Maybe it's Philadelphia-bias, but this is The Roots at their best.
Fela Kuti
4/5
I enjoyed this quite a bit and will definitely be revisiting it again this year.
Ryan Adams
4/5
This is about as good as it gets with Adams.

Culture Club

I liked this more than I expected to. I've found that I've not really loved or hated most of the recent albums.
3/5
OutKast
3/5
This is Outkast at their most experimental, and nearing the end of their time as a group. Overall this was a fun one for me to revisit.
The Police

Did not dig.

Radiohead
5/5
The best Radiohead album? I don't know. My favorite? Probably.
Bauhaus
3/5
The Sonics
3/5
Did not dig.
Aimee Mann
2/5
This seems so firmly tied to the time in which it was created.
Wu-Tang Clan
4/5
This is an important and influential album with a handful of well known songs from well known hip-hop personalities. I've listened to it dozens of times but it's never become a go-to when wanting to put on a rap album.

Elbow
3/5
This seems fine. I don't believe I've ever heard of these folks. Or if I did I just assumed someone was talking about a body part.
The Chemical Brothers
4/5
I first heard this album in high school, probably around 1996-97 and I hadn't heard anything like it before. This was probably due to being to immersed in the post-grunge alternative rock that was popular at the time.
The Style Council

Tom Waits
2/5
I think I like the idea of Waits music more than I like actually listening to it.
Gene Clark
4/5
Peter Tosh
2/5
Too bad Tosh didn't live long enough to see his dream come true for much of the United States. Also, his wikipedia has a section on his Unicycling. I'm not sure that can be said of any other artist we've reviewed so far.
Jimi Hendrix
4/5
The Stranglers
2/5
Probably 2.5...
Nitin Sawhney
3/5
Def Leppard
3/5
I've been watching a lot of 80s movies recently, this album definitely fits that theme.
Pink Floyd
3/5
Was surprised by this one, it's not the Pink Floyd I expected though admittedly my PF knowledge is nascent at best having only ever listened to a handful of their records.
Beastie Boys
3/5
This is a pretty strong debut and some of these songs are classics I can't help but feel that Rick Rubin's production is probably the most innovative thing about this album. The Beastie Boys lyrics on this one are purposely aggressive, in your face, and puerile at times (just look up the original title for the album). Luckily for all of us (and their legacy) they evolved.
Waylon Jennings
4/5
Into it.
Wire
3/5
A pretty fun listen.
My Bloody Valentine
3/5
Pixies
3/5

Red Hot Chili Peppers
2/5
This album had its time and its place, however its place should not be on the 1001 albums list.
Kate Bush
3/5
2/5
Man, I haven't listened to this album in a long time and I think it will be a long time before I listen to it again. That said, I didn't hate it.
Leonard Cohen
3/5
Good stuff, it's a lot to listen to all at once but I often find that true of his albums.
Arcade Fire
3/5
3.5 for me, not my favorite by Arcade Fire but still something I'll put on from time to time.

Eric Clapton
1/5
How to separate the shitty person from the music? I guess, I can't.
Linkin Park
2/5
Occasionally there's an album that I'm afraid to stream lest it warp the algorithms shoving recommendations into my ears. This was one of those, but in the end it doesn't even matter.
Bobby Womack

Booker T. & The MG's

PJ Harvey
2/5
2.5/5 based on other stuff I've heard by PJ Harvey I expected to like this more than I did.
