1001 Albums Summary

(Pronounced 'Leh-'Nérd 'Skin-'Nérd) by Lynyrd Skynyrd

Some classic tracks on here such as Free Bird, but so is Tuesday's gone and my all time favourite track from this band, Simple Man. Never listed to one of their albums before.

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band by Beatles

My favourite Beatles album, enough said!

Shaka Zulu by Ladysmith Black Mambazo

I enjoyed it, didn't realise these were the bank Paul Simon used for his Graceland album

Red Headed Stranger by Willie Nelson

Just not my bag

1984 by Van Halen

Illmatic by Nas

I don't listen to much of the genre, but enjoyed it. Will listen to that again.

Birth Of The Cool by Miles Davis

Enjoyable - Never listened to him before

Pretzel Logic by Steely Dan

Some nice tracks but so middle of the road it became dull, very fast!

The Blueprint by JAY Z

I liked that more than I thought I would.

At Newport 1960 by Muddy Waters

Could do with listening to it a bit more, but enjoyed it. You can really hear that that whole style really started with him..

Gris Gris by Dr. John

Some interesting songs, but not for me

Mr. Tambourine Man by The Byrds

I knew a lot more songs on this than i thought i would!

Moby Grape by Moby Grape

Really enjoyed it. Wouldn't want to listen to it all the time though

Fuzzy Logic by Super Furry Animals

Arthur (Or the Decline and Fall of the British Empire) by The Kinks

John Barleycorn Must Die by Traffic

Fear Of Music by Talking Heads

Music for the Masses by Depeche Mode

Debut by Björk

Just not a fan

We Are Family by Sister Sledge

Elvis Presley by Elvis Presley

I found it a bit generic but that's probably because he was the first and it's been done to death since!

Dear Science by TV On The Radio

Third by Portishead

I genuinely thought I'd really like this album.... I didn't

Skylarking by XTC

I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got by Sinead O'Connor

AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted by Ice Cube

The Undertones by The Undertones

Miriam Makeba by Miriam Makeba

To Pimp A Butterfly by Kendrick Lamar

Rage Against The Machine by Rage Against The Machine

Some great tracks, but find it hard to really enjoy it as an album at times.

Ramones by Ramones

You can see where so many bands have got their influence from. I just prefer a cleaner sound. Even though this is an iconic album, it's just a solid album for me.

Eliminator by ZZ Top

Damaged by Black Flag

MTV Unplugged In New York by Nirvana

Dig Your Own Hole by The Chemical Brothers

Under Construction by Missy Elliott

Diamond Life by Sade

Lady Soul by Aretha Franklin

I really enjoyed listening to this. I will be adding this into my regular rotation!

Hysteria by Def Leppard

This is a classic 80s rock album. I heard this a lot growing up through older family members loving it. Objectively, probably not a 5 star album, but all tracks are really really good and some catchy radio friendly tunes in there for good measure.

Bummed by Happy Mondays

No Other by Gene Clark

The Atomic Mr Basie by Count Basie & His Orchestra

S.F. Sorrow by The Pretty Things

Bluesbreakers by John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers

Happy Sad by Tim Buckley

A pleasant listening experience

Marcus Garvey by Burning Spear

Aja by Steely Dan

Call of the Valley by Shivkumar Sharma

People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm by A Tribe Called Quest

Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd

A fantastic album, brilliantly produced. The opening 9 mins of Shine on You Crazy Diamond is just incredible. Overall, it's a stone cold classic.

2112 by Rush

A really indulgent opening 20 minute track, but I still quite enjoyed the album overall.

Fever To Tell by Yeah Yeah Yeahs

Not my favourite album from them, but some great tracks on it

The Yes Album by Yes

Rust In Peace by Megadeth

That was a struggle

First 2/3 of this album are just superb. Very tempted to give it the 5, but i won't!

Loveless by My Bloody Valentine

A bit too much noise gong on!

Dog Man Star by Suede

Ray Of Light by Madonna

A couple of good tracks. Certainly not something I would listed to on a regular basis. Plenty of forgettable ones too.

There's No Place Like America Today by Curtis Mayfield

The Stranger by Billy Joel

Vibes of Elton's Honky Chateau through a lot of this. Enjoyable Listen. 3.5 really

Clube Da Esquina by Milton Nascimento

A Love Supreme by John Coltrane

Innervisions by Stevie Wonder

Sticky Fingers by The Rolling Stones

Blur by Blur

Swordfishtrombones by Tom Waits

He's a little bland but at the same time, the music isn't too bad.

Soul Mining by The The

Violent Femmes by Violent Femmes

Slipknot by Slipknot

Some great drumming surrounded by noise

The Man Machine by Kraftwerk

The Black Saint And The Sinner Lady by Charles Mingus

Like A Prayer by Madonna

It was fine, with some good hits but will never play it again!

L.A. Woman by The Doors

It's Blitz! by Yeah Yeah Yeahs

Such a great album. I liked one or two songs off earlier albums, but this was album was terrific

Group Sex by Circle Jerks

Crap Punk. I know it's the style but i hate the production of this early punk stuff.

Teen Dream by Beach House

Here Are the Sonics by The Sonics

By the end of the album, I got pretty bored of the singer shout Wow every 20 seconds.

Elastica by Elastica

A bit unforgettable

Step In The Arena by Gang Starr

Untitled (Black Is) by SAULT

The Poet by Bobby Womack

Just not my bad. The chap has a good voice but it's not for me.

The Seldom Seen Kid by Elbow

Kind of a 3.5 stars for me, but it's a good listen

I really like this album, not their best in my opinion but certainly an iconic one with that album cover.

Live 1966 (The Royal Albert Hall Concert) by Bob Dylan

Sweet Baby James by James Taylor

Lady In Satin by Billie Holiday

Lovely voice, but fairly boring album. Lots of songs sound very similar

O.G. Original Gangster by Ice T

Crocodiles by Echo And The Bunnymen

Younger Than Yesterday by The Byrds

That voice hurt my ears

Yank Crime by Drive Like Jehu

Hms Fable by Shack

Surf's Up by The Beach Boys

Document by R.E.M.

E.V.O.L. by Sonic Youth

Really want to like this album, but it's not grabbing me.

Space Ritual by Hawkwind

Really enjoyed listening to this album, but not quite a 4 for me.

With The Beatles by Beatles

A well put together album that sounds very much of it's time. Thankfully the Beatles progressed and drove music forward from the early pop/rock sound.

Garbage by Garbage

Achtung Baby by U2

A fantastic album. U2 dreamed it all up again and have another album on par with the Joshua Tree

Sunshine Superman by Donovan

Oedipus Schmoedipus by Barry Adamson

Unknown Pleasures by Joy Division

I don't get the appeal of Joy Division. I know they were trend setters, but nothing much stands out at all.

Moondance by Van Morrison

A "nice" album. Each song on their own is really nice, feel good music, but a whole album of the same type is a bit draining

B-52's by The B-52's

Ready To Die by The Notorious B.I.G.

Surfer Rosa by Pixies

Technique by New Order

Nick Of Time by Bonnie Raitt

Master Of Puppets by Metallica

Meat Is Murder by The Smiths

The Bends by Radiohead

An excellent album, not giving it the full 5 as a rarely stick this one on so I guess it doesn't draw me back in regularly the way any album I'm going to rate 5 starts should.

Welcome To The Pleasuredome by Frankie Goes To Hollywood

Destroy Rock & Roll by Mylo

If You're Feeling Sinister by Belle & Sebastian

Talking Heads 77 by Talking Heads

I dont know what it is, but i just dont really like them. His voice or the music works for me at all.

Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) by Wu-Tang Clan

Hotel California by Eagles

Hard to really know what to give this album. A really well produced album with some great tracks, but the remaining tracks are a snooze fest of middle of the road soft rock. 3.5 out of 5 for me, but will bump to 4 cause of Hotel California

The remix of Brimful of Asha really made me have high hopes for this, but ultimately it was a bit of a snooze fest.

New Gold Dream (81/82/83/84) by Simple Minds

Probably a 4.5 for me. Some super tracks on this album. A peeling album that I've not listened to a whole let. I think it's more the production and how Robert Plant's voice sounds on this album that just bothers me a little to drop it to a 4...

All That You Can't Leave Behind by U2

I remember when this album came out and it was U2 getting back to their roots after Zooropa and Pop which were much more experimental, weren’t as successful as they hoped (even if the tour itself was great). Ultimately, with hindsight, this is U2 playing it safe with stadium rock. No risks, some great tracks, particularly in the first half of the album. The last 4 star U2 album.
