1001 Albums Summary

Take Five was definitely great (the seemingly most popular) Katherine told me it's in 9/8, which, means nothing to me other than it must be complex. However, I think my favourite song by far was Pick Up Sticks. I found myself stopping what I was doing to just listen which is my favourite moment when listening to music. When it transcends other activities.

Nothing really jumped out at me. Maybe I was too afk doing work, but it really just sort of... melded into the background. Nothing like a Dave Brubeck that really captures your attention.

the 1995 child in time remaster for 10mins and 15 seconds was just this yesteryear solos, neil young 'get lost in the music' style which I really enjoyed. I also really enjoyed a 20 song album. None of this 11 or 12 nonsense to optimise for spotify algorithms.

look, I listened to this 3 times and I want the vinyl of it. There's just too many bangers. Surprised by the Chain this time, really rocked out.

Look. Layla. Just, perfection. Didn't have a ton of time for the rest of the album though, so it won't make my top lists.

I went back just then to listen to take me to the river because I wanted to make sure of my opinion. Bear with. Okay, I relistened to their most played. Not my cup of tea. I recognise its historical significance. Just not something that's actually pleasing to listen to.

Huge fan! Nothing more to say, was a great album to listen to. Bopped along happily all morning.

Ah, just... pure serenity. I'll get this in a record one day. The whole album was really cute. Listening to the 7 o clock news / silent night was also really touching. My dad dodged the vietnam draft (because he didn't want to cut his hair) and part of me is so grateful as I don't think he would've been the same human today, in fact, I know he wouldn't have been the same human today.

It's good fun. Katherine had a field day.

And then it transitions to this gorgeous minimalist guitar descant over the top of simple piano. It really like, crescendo's and then realises you might need a small break and slowly builds back up.

WHAT. A. BANGER.

Definitely felt like a standout few songs. Not my fave--made me want to listen to Garbage though.

definitely one of my favourite bands of all time. Really enjoyed Darts of Pleasure more than I ever have before. Huge fan.

Like the original angus and julia stone. Loved the harmonies.

Sweet Dreams are made of this is an amazing song. Didn't care for the rest of the album.

not my cup of tea

It's crazy how sometimes these album a day is just exactly what you need on a day. Nick Drake--particularly Saturday Sun, just hit the SPOT. It's raining and this is just hitting all the right notes.

Look I can appreciate it—it was interesting—but I’d say not my cup of tea.

I don't like rap usually, I really enjoyed this.

LOVED oldschool garbage. My brother used to listen to them and the cranberries and so I was very much so indoctrinated at an early age.

she's just a queen.

I strangely liked it, almost like punk vibes. There were a few songs that I'd heard just around the traps. I think too hot is used as part of memes?

idk why this was on there, some of the least memorable linkin park songs except for in the end.

LOVED it.

introduced me to acid-jazz. Loved it.

I want to buy this vinyl
