1001 Albums Summary

Solid beats. Started strong, dragged a bit in the middle and finished strong.

This had some good singles, but I always found later Bowie stuff was less interesting than the early Bowie music.

Had this as a teenager. Totally forgot how awesome this album is!

I’ve only ever known Isaac Hayes as Chef from Southpark, but I enjoyed the groove on this album! A definite classic.

Based on what information in the Wikipedia article, I would say that this album is best listened to on vinyl. There is a definite theme for the first half (side A) and a bunch of decent songs on the second half (side B). It is disjointed when listening on a stream as they don’t compliment each other at all. Having to flip a record would help provide a proper demarcation between the two concepts..

I liked the more experimental “grunge” sound.

One of the foundational leaders in the punk movement. This is a solid album which keeps a certain chaotic sound that counters to the hippies of the 60’s.

Good, chill album with some good beats.

This was a very cool listen! I can definitely hear the mixes that inspired other artists (beastie boys, fatboyslim) from around this time.

Very jazzy! Solid beats.

A single listen does not do it justice. There are so many layers happening in these songs! Drugs and more listens would help!

Pretty much peak 80’s.

Wow. Didn’t realize the whole album was this good.

One of the best albums of the late 90’s.
