1001 Albums Summary

Not as weird as I expected but definitely angry at times. Angry surf vibes

Manic Schizo didn’t sound like 1969 but the rest sounded like knock off moody blues

Literally none of the songs of hers that are halfway decent. If I was a preteen girl I would love this album. Smack dab in the middle between T Swift and Billie Eillish.

Better than expected but I feel like the reason it gets so much hype is that it must’ve been incredible for its time. Nowadays it’s sound has been replicated so it doesn’t seem as unique

Somewhere someone is saying that Paul Simon is a great lyricist but it seems like incoherent ramblings to me. Also dude would get slammed for some heavy cultural appropriation nowadays. Too much accordion but Call Me Al is a banger.

The album cover does not match the sound at all. Not really my cup of tea but I gotta appreciate how awesome of a rock ballad / rock opera this is.

Too weird and waay too long of songs. Aisle of Plenty saves this from a 1 star. Very British. Be better Phil

I liked it the more and more I listened. Pretty psychedelic and loved the guitar.

I usually hate live albums but this was incredible! Only wish I could have been there myself. Recognized a few songs and found a few new songs I dig as well. My first 5 star!

Seems like a predecessor to many genres like there were some ska vibes and maybe a little punk starting to bud so for that it wasn’t two stars but I just didn’t dig the sound all that much other than the guitar and bass in some songs.
