Van Halen
Van Halen
I didnβt think I would like this having listened to 5150 and OU812 in the past, however I was really impressed with it.
Bluesy in places with just the right amount of EVH on the guitar it was one that I listened to a few times before deciding that early VH material is kinder on my ears that the latter.

At San Quentin
Johnny Cash
Another artist that Iβve never given much listening time to.
An interesting album purely because of the environment that it was created in. The relationship between Cash and the audience was entertaining, Cash was quite funny with the chat between some of the tracks.
Another album I would listen to again.

Water From An Ancient Well
Abdullah Ibrahim
Having just listened to Time out by the Dave Brubeck quartet i felt that the 30 years that separated the two albums hadnβt been kind to Jazz.
It didnβt flow well for me, the transition from one track to another was too harsh at times.
The tracks I enjoyed
Mandela - quite punchy and upbeat, itβs gets the album off to a good start.
Manenberg revisited- starts slow and builds up, whilst itβs quite repetitive it allows you to follow the beat and relax into it.
Tuang guru - reminded me of the backing music to a 1950βs black and white cop film
The ones I didnβt
Sameeda- too βall over the placeβ with its beat, just couldnβt relax with it.
Thereβs a couple of tracks I would listen to again, but not the whole album

Duck Rock
Malcolm McLaren
Wiki have this listed as novelty, I struggle to see how they get to that.
There were hints of grandmaster flash and Herbie Hancock through the album.
Iβve heard Double Dutch many times in the past as a single but never ventured into the album, I didnβt know what I was missing
Wasnβt keen on duck for the oyster and Obatala didnβt really seem to fit into the album well but the rest of them I could get into and liked

Aja
Steely Dan
Iβm a big fan of yacht rock and quite a lot of steely dans material but this album was one I struggled to get into, and I really wanted to like it as well.
I love the production quality, considering it was β77, the clarity of the instruments and vocals is very impressive even by todays standards

Transformer
Lou Reed
when I first saw my album for the day was Lou Reed I sank a little, only because when I knew of him was little and my impression was negative.
How wrong was I, aside from his well known releases such as Walk on the wild side and Perfect day there are some very good tracks on this album.
Andys chest is a little out there, but it does paint quite a picture if you listen to the lyrics, as does Make up,
the ones I enjoyed:
Satellite of love
Perfect day
Walk on the wild Side
Given that it was released in '72 it was a brave move to talk about alternative sexuality, prostitution and cross dressing all of these things still being quite taboo subjects back then.
The Bowie influence is certainly there, there were points in Make up where I didn't know if I was listening to Reed or Bowie.
Given that the album is 49 years old its still got a sound that doesn't age it in the 70's

ImmigrΓ©s
Youssou N'Dour
Really struggled with this one. Loved the beats and the melodies but because I didnβt understand the lyrics I felt I was missing out on half the song.
Also felt that the tracks were too long, again if I knew what the subject was or what they were singing about it may have made more sense.

GI
Germs
I started listening to the 1001 albums with the intention of giving each album at least one full listen.
And today I broke that intention. I got about 6 songs in and realised itβs all the same noise but with different (indistinguishable) lyrics attached to the tracks.
in 1979 this may have been βcutting edgeβ today in 2020 itβs just noise, and not the good type either.
It should be left in the 70βs itβs hasnβt aged well

Brothers In Arms
Dire Straits
I loved this album when I first hear it in the 80βs and still love it now.
The clarity of the guitar in so far away, the sax in your latest trick and Knopflers gravelly vocals throughout.
Ride the river, manβs too strong and one world donβt seem to really fit in the album, theyβre good tracks but seem to be a bit of an afterthought.
Definitely one of my all time top 30 albums

I genuinely cannot believe how good that album sounded.

I have only ever listened to one of the Lordeβs track so approaching this with a degree of open mindedness.
Really enjoyed the album, Lorde and Sia are of very similar styles both of which I find very pleasurable.
Certainly an album that I would add to my favourites and listen to again and again, if I have one criticism itβs the use of bad language within some of the songs, I really donβt understand why that is a requirement these days within music and because of that I gave it a 4 out of 5

Oct 28 2021
Dare!
The Human League
Iβve listened to a lot of the tracks on the album individually but never as an album.
This was released just before I came of age musically but the tracks have always been there in my life.
I enjoy the synth and electronic sounds of the new wave/romantics it has aged a bit but it was the start of a new musical direction.
I didnβt realise that seconds was a homage to JFK, quite an interesting song
4
Oct 29 2021
The Real Thing
Faith No More
Not my preferred style of music, I did listen to the album and found that I just couldnβt get into it.
Overtones of beastie boys within a few of the songs that didnβt help the music at all.
Not one I would listen to again

Nov 01 2021
Back To Black
Amy Winehouse
I remember when this album first came out, because of the face that Winehouse was always in the news for various drink, drug and relationship issues I didnβt think much of her, or her music.
Fast forward 10 years and Iβm listening to it one day, and realised that she was an incredibly talented musician who sadly lived her life via her musicβ¦.or maybe the music told the story of her life. Either way itβs a very sad story and one that should be a lesson to young talent.
She has a great voice thatβs able to transmit the feeling of the songs so well, again Iβm not a fan of bad language in music and there are the occasional lapses into it in this album.
We will never really know the depths of her talent because of her short life but we have a little something to remind us of her

Iβve Got a Tiger By the Tail
Buck Owens
This is C&W at its most original, not my favourite genre but still not offensive.
I find the songs very βsameyβ guitar, vocals and the occasional violin/viola.
Interesting to see how C&W has changed in 50 years, Lady antibellum, John Mayer and Taylor swift owe their success to this but are a million miles away from this

Oasis
Parts of Shakermaker sound like βIβd like to teach the world to singβ
They were parts of the album that sounded like T. Rex, Beatles and even Holly Johnson.
Oasis were good at self marketing, being in the press a lot when they were up and coming, always courting controversy. But in reality they were no better than a lot of other mediocre groups of their time.
Would I listen to this again? No, this isnβt the first time Iβve listened to it and given the gap in time since I last listened to it I would say that my views havenβt changed and it hasnβt improved with age.

Up until this album I had been a massive Madonna fan, her change if material/direction wasnβt in my musical taste at the time, now however I get what she was trying to achieve with this album.
Ironically there are quite a few good singles on here that were never released and itβs a shame they werenβt as it would have shown the album off a lot more

To simplifyβ¦a musician with a bad back who was hungry, slightly grumpy and playing a piano that wasnβt even the one he asked for and was substandard at that, improvised this piano solo.

Before Iβve even listened to one note I am stoked, I lived this album back in the day and itβs been years since I last have given it any AirPlay.
Having re listened to it I wasnβt disappointed, every song is a total banger, each hitting home with strong beats, still loving their best known hit unfinished sympathy and ending with the hymn of the big wheel which I think is such a haunting tune

Public Image: First Issue
Public Image Ltd.
Wow!!!
I thought some of the past offerings by the sex pistols was bad, this has taken dirge to a whole new level.
Itβs absolute rubbish, Iβve heard white noise that has more appeal than this.
I suppose that you have to listen to the really bad music to appreciate the mediocre and to love the good.
Iβm only giving this a one start because I have to award it something, if I could I would have given it a zero

This was the genesis of hip house and electro.

Very dated today but enjoyable to listen to just to see how it all began. Itβs b bit like watching a planet form, this is the Big Bang moment, from here it Improves and develops and sadly that moment of creation becomes a distant memory

I donβt know if psychedelia had a common sound or whether this album influenced a lot of bands that were around either at the same time or shortly after that they does Appear to be a very similar sound to other more mainstream groups within this album.
Its a bit too psychedelic for me, I get that this is this album is from 1966, it is very much of that time, sadly it doesnβt translate well into the 2020s

It has that undeniable pogues sound throughout the album which is great for a while but with an album of this size it does wear a bit towards the end of the album.
The stand out song is the fairytale of New York, however it does feel strange listened to it mid-June when it is now considered a classic Christmas tune

Of the 11 songs on the album there are just 3 tracks that today stand the test of time, the rest are just album fillers and from an artist like MJ thatβs a poor performance.
I appreciate that to create an album that follows thriller would always be a tough act to achieve but it looks like MJ didnβt even bother.
Itβs a 2 from me.

The Dark Side Of The Moon
Pink Floyd
Itβs been 20 years since I last listened to DSOTM so when it popped up as the album of the day there was a sharp intake of exciting breath.
I immediately wanted to give it 5/5 but held back thinking I really need to revisit it and understand what it was that made me want to give it 5/5.
Right from the first track I was enveloped by the music, itβs has so many levels but can also just be listened to as something you bop your head along to.
There isnβt a filler song on this album, every single song could stand on its own and they all lead into each other so well.
So 20 years later looking at this album through rose coloured spectacles i realise that it isnβt as good as it was when I was listening to it in my 30βs, itβs better, and that's because I understand life and what this album it talking about so much better.
5/5, nah 10/5 yes

1986 and I was in two but I turned them as proper metal, when this came out, it was hated by me and my peers as it was felt that this was a solo album. Bon Jovi had become something less than heavy metal.
Fast forward 35 years, and I listen to it now with a very different here, I appreciate it as one of those albums change the face of rock.
Having listened to it, a few times, I can understand its commercial appeal and what it did for the music genre. Itβs not an album that I would listen to regularly but itβs wonder if I were in the right frame of mind I would enjoy

A lot better than I remember it back when it was released.
Back then I was into heavier music and this was worse than bubblegum pop, it was the pits, however with my maturity and time it seems now that I can listen to it and appreciate it a little more.
Itβs still not something I would have as a saved album on my Spotify though but worth of more than 3 stars

Frank Sinatra
Iβve never really given much time to swing as a music genre, and whilst Iβm familiar with Frank Sinatraβs more well-known music, Iβve never actually listened to any of his albums.
It was a pleasant, listen, nice beat easy to listen to, and quite relaxing. Overall an enjoyable album And one that surprised me as well

Iβve never given much time to Rod Stewart, the music he has charted with has never really appealed to me so when this landed on my playlist I was fairly ambivalent towards it.
Itβs a lot better than I had given credit for, and I can now see why People rate him as an artist. I still havenβt truly changed my mind about his chart music, but this album as an individual piece was an interesting and enjoyable Listen

The Gershwin Songbook
Ella Fitzgerald
Have always been well aware of who Ella Fitzgerald is, but never really listens to her music.
Itβs quite chilled and relaxed, but still up-tempo and relatable, from an era when life appeared to be a lot simpler.
Enjoyable, but maybe not something that I would seek out to listen to again.

An absolute banger of an album, even the weakest song on here is better than some albums strongest songs.

Absolute 5/5

Jean-Michel Jarre
Itβs been 30 years since I last listened to this and it still blows me away, what an album.

5/5

Nov 25 2022
Arrival
ABBA
ABBA were, in my opinion, the 70s version of bubblegum pop. Mass-produce, bland and mediocre in its quality of lyrics.
Nearly 40 years later, my opinion still hasnβt changed, Iβm not a great fan of them or their music but I appreciate that I am in the minority.
When I compare it to many other 70s groups who lasted through to the 80s and beyond, I feel that it was nostalgic marketing that kept other on the scene, rather than quality of product.
At Best 3/5

Back in β85 the music itself didnβt make it stand out from the mainstream crowd, thatβs not to say itβs a bad album, far from it.

I understand why he was such a phenomena, right, place, right person, right time and right voice, but his style of music, even the later stuff is not to my liking.
That said I do appreciate his talents, and that of his management company who managed to keep him in the limelight, even when he was doing his national service.
Itβs not a bad album, itβs Just not an album that I would listen to because itβs not a genre that I can get into

Another album by Presley and Ross. This one is from a different phone is better the previous I still donβt get the fascination with him, itβs not my kind of music.
I understand that he was a pioneer in some ways and many groups have said in the past that he was inspiration to them and their music, but in the 2020βs you can clearly see how his music is aged, and not particularly well.

This and thriller were Michael Jackson at his best, after that, in my opinion, he lost his way a bit and never really achieved the success that off the wall or thriller gave him.
Off the wall is very much of its time though, having a disco influence, and Now in the 2020s is starting to show its age a little. Still a very listenable album but lacks punch

As individual tracks that have made the charts this, for me, was REM at their best. When combined with the album tracks the whole album is a more finished, polished product.
I really like this album, and itβs one that I will be listening to time and time again.
5/5 for me

When this was released I hated the Gallagher brothers, the music really did not appeal to me, as a result I avoided the album and singles at all cost.
I still hate the artists, I think they are absolute dic*s but Iβve learnt to separate the artist from the music.
The singles that made the charts are better, and that reflects in their chart appearances, tue ones that didnβt just feel like album fillers.
4/5, but only because some of those chart singles werenβt as bad as I originally thought

Iβve never listened to this before, my experience of Amy Winehouse is limited to her chart success and her second album.
Whilst this isnβt exactly mainstream Amy Winehouse, it is a pure version of her voice, I personally think that the second album in comparison shows her declined with drink and drugs Far more.
Whilst she was alive and constantly in the news for her drink and drug antics, she wasnβt an artist that I was particularly keen upon, having listened to her retrospectively, I do like her voice, and had she managed to clean herself up, Iβm convinced that She wouldβve had massive success

I loved this album, there wasnβt a bad truck on it, not all of the songs were suitable singles, but every song had a place on the album, and there were no fillers.
Coupled with the fact that the album was made on the very difficult circumstances and the drummer only had one arm makes it even more remarkable.
Do anything ages this album is this song gods of war where there are the VoiceOver is from Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan, but I suppose if you are old enough to remember them then you can date the album if youβre not then itβs just another man and woman doing a voiceover.

Jacko at his best, right from the first nots on the album through to the last track.
Everything he did after this was compared to this and frequently fell short of thriller.
It's a good album and deserves 5/5 as there isn't a bad track on the album, excellent production and the track layout flows well

A Grand Don't Come For Free
The Streets
I liked it back in the day and haven't listened to it for about 15 years, it's still good but very much of its time.
Mike Skinner was trying to do something a bit different here and to a point he succeeded, however if you really want to listen to a story in an album then you have to listen to The Defamation of Strickland Banks by Plan B, it's far better executed and delivered.
Still give it a four stars though because it was very listenable

It's one of those albums that is very much of its time, you listen to it today and it feels dated and shows how much music production has moved on in the 30+ years since it was produced.
Not a bad album, just nothing that particularly sticks in your mind

Not my favourite Bowie album, it's a radical departure from his early stuff and very different still from his later albums you can tell that his life has gone through some change because of the change in the start of music.

Songs From A Room
Leonard Cohen
His voice is one you either love or you hate. when he sings he sounds very monotone almost tone deaf and in many songs it's spoils what he's trying to achieve, in others however it adds to the effects that he is trying to translate to the listener.
When you have heard Aaron Neville sing bird on the wire and then you listen to this you realise what a massive difference there is in a song when the artists have different vocal capabilities

Tina Turner
This album is very much of its time, when you listen to it nearly 40 years later it gives you a snapshot of mainstream music for that era.
It's not a bad album, just not an album that particularly stands out when you compare it against others of the same era, it is listenable but not the kind of album that you would go back to time and time again.
This was a departure from Tina Turner Hallmark sound but this was her relaunching herself for the 80s and I believe she did a pretty good job of it as her career Continued well into the 90s.

Noise and incoherent lyrics that I'm guessing harped on about life's hardships, how being a nu-metal fan is a raw deal and any other hetero-minority group that the target listener has chosen to join

It seems strange listening to an album trying to deal with social and environmental issues that's 50plus years old.
A different beach boys sounds that still carries a nod to the past.
It's not a bad album, just not what I would consider a real beach boys album though

Another one of those albums make me question the office mentality when putting this list together.
I have quite a wide ranging vocabulary but even I'm struggling come up with words that adequately describe this utter bowl of sputum that has been delivered.
To call it noise is actually insulting the concept of noise itself so i'm left describing it as the biggest pile of horseshit I have ever encountered put together by the largest bunch of fuck knuckles.
And there You have it, Only the fact I'm obliged to give it one star, but I do sir but I am doing so reluctantly having had my fingernails pulled out with a pair of pliers and my ears syringed with hydrochloric acid.

When I was younger, I never liked the carpenters music, I felt it was of a different generation.
Having listened to it now with the benefit of age and musical maturity I get it a little more and appreciate for its time. It was quite different and forward sounding.
It's a shame that Karen Carpenter had so many issues, maybe that's what makes them who they are today but it would have been interesting to see how her music would have developed. Has she lived on.

When this first came out I hated it with a passion, it seems that time has either mellowed me or the music.
Aside from the last track I found it to be an album that I could listen to, there's still songs on it I would happily skip through but the chart one seems to have grown on my.
Still only a 3/5 though

This is the Genesis of rap and hip-hop for me.
I haven't heard this album in 20 years and had forgotten just how good and fresh it really was, it managed to convey the social issues at the time without having to drop into a plethora of bad language and antagonistic Rhetoric,
Only reason I didn't give her a 5 out of 5 because some of the tracks on the album are a little weak and maybe don't fit with the message that was being conveyed by this album
