1001 Albums Summary

Moon Safari by Air

Very chill stuff.

Siembra by Willie Colón & Rubén Blades

Jagged Little Pill by Alanis Morissette

Lyrics are awkward at some points but very solid music.

Queen II by Queen

Not my usual go-to genre but this was quite enjoyable.

Slanted And Enchanted by Pavement

Behaviour by Pet Shop Boys

White Ladder by David Gray

This Nation’s Saving Grace by The Fall

Trafalgar by Bee Gees

This is a bit of a chore to listen to. I find the songs very bland; they do not work for me.

Happy Sad by Tim Buckley

One Nation Under A Groove by Funkadelic

Straight Outta Compton by N.W.A.

Despite this being a landmark album, I have trouble with the violent and misogynistic lyrics.
