1001 Albums Summary

Automatic For The People by R.E.M.

There are some big hitters in terms of songs on here. I love Sidewinder Sleeps, Nightswimming and Man on the Room. The new stuff washed over me a bit. It sounded quite of it's time and place.

Neon Bible by Arcade Fire

Superb - I've loved this since it came out. It sounds like the soundtrack to a brilliant film.

Dust by Screaming Trees

Not heard before and ended up listening 4 times back to back. Could hear it's influence on other records since. Really good.

Natty Dread by Bob Marley & The Wailers

A little meh if I’m honest.

Ritual De Lo Habitual by Jane's Addiction

Really not a fan of this. Sounds so dated and almost like a parody.

Exit Planet Dust by The Chemical Brothers

Not listened to this from beginning to end before. Discovered Life is Sweet and Alive Alone with Tim Burgess and Beth Orton on vocals respectively, which were great.

The Köln Concert by Keith Jarrett

This did surprise me. Wouldn't be a go to, but definitely an enjoyable listen.

Boston by Boston

I struggle to believe anyone can honestly like this music
