1001 Albums Summary

She's So Unusual by Cyndi Lauper

Pretty solid, even beyond the hits. Cyndi is a great singer!

The La's by The La's

I can see this growing on me a bit the more I listen to it, but there's not much that stands out here to me besides "There She Goes"

Aqualung by Jethro Tull

A nerd rock classic that still holds up

Modern Kosmology by Jane Weaver

The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars by David Bowie

Parklife by Blur

Jagged Little Pill by Alanis Morissette

Crazysexycool by TLC

The singles are great, but this album doesn't offer much else besides for a feature from Busta.

I’ve Got a Tiger By the Tail by Buck Owens

I liked this more then I thought I would

Soul Mining by The The

The The is a band that I've been aware of but never really listened to. Very 80s and pretty good

KIWANUKA by Michael Kiwanuka

Gunfighter Ballads And Trail Songs by Marty Robbins

The Slider by T. Rex

The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails

One World by John Martyn

I thought the mix on this sounded pretty bad

Rocks by Aerosmith

Paranoid by Black Sabbath

An all time fav! More than four stars but not quite five

Bitte Orca by Dirty Projectors

The Message by Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five

Be by Common

Five Leaves Left by Nick Drake

That's The Way Of The World by Earth, Wind & Fire

Stardust by Willie Nelson

Emperor Tomato Ketchup by Stereolab

Morrison Hotel by The Doors

Let England Shake by PJ Harvey

Nevermind by Nirvana

It's been a while since I've listened to this all the way though. I wasn't sure how well Side B would hold up, but it does very well.

Coles Corner by Richard Hawley

Live At The Regal by B.B. King

Stankonia by OutKast

Horses by Patti Smith

Cut like 12 minutes off the runtime and this is at least a 4. Too many of these songs drag on way too long. Even still, a very good record

The Stooges by The Stooges

You've Come a Long Way Baby by Fatboy Slim

Live At The Harlem Square Club by Sam Cooke

The Undertones by The Undertones

This is totally in my Q Zone

Is This It by The Strokes

Side 1 is amazing, Side 2 is just ok.

Rumours by Fleetwood Mac

Vespertine by Björk

This Is Fats Domino by Fats Domino

Superfuzz Bigmuff by Mudhoney

Document by R.E.M.

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

I fuck with Wu-Tang

A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector by Various Artists

Loaded with Christmas classics. Phil Spector was a violent psychopath, but the man knew how to make a great record!

Abattoir Blues / The Lyre of Orpheus by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

Fleet Foxes by Fleet Foxes

I respect the band's talent, but this record is so BORING.

Bluesbreakers by John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers

Straight Outta Compton by N.W.A.

Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs by Derek & The Dominos

Out Of The Blue by Electric Light Orchestra

Are You Experienced by Jimi Hendrix

I think Right Said Fred lifted the guitar in "I'm Too Sexy" from "Third Stone From The Sun."

Who Killed...... The Zutons? by The Zutons

Albums like this are why I like 1001 albums generator: it helps me discover bands I never knew about that put out pretty good records.

Post Orgasmic Chill by Skunk Anansie

This album is very 90s, but had not aged well. I could have done without this one.
