Imagine
John Lennon"Jealous Guy" remains one of Lennon's finest songs.
"Jealous Guy" remains one of Lennon's finest songs.
A mixture of some decent tunes and some absolutely self indulgent nonsense.
I remember this album being a really big deal when it came out. Listening again, it's hard to see why.
This is fine. Weirdly sexual in places.
Not available on Spotify so I couldn't listen to this one.
I'm sure this was revolutionary when it came out, but feels excessive and indulgent now.
Enjoyable enough. Felt like somewhere between The Beatles and The Eagles.
Lots of the hits, pretty fun and over quickly.
Decent enough. Not really for me.
First album on this list I've actually really enjoyed. Some complex and interesting pop music. Lovely stuff.
I'm someone who never paid much attention to Cohen outside of Hallelujah, so this was an enjoyable listen.
Decent enough. Rolls along nicely, but mostly forgettable.
Hadn’t heard this one in ages. One of the better albums I’ve had recommended to me!
Fun pop with some all time classics.
Plenty of certified bangers, but the occasional bit of filler.
A lot of fun, but hard to really get my teeth into it.
WTF is Mother all about? Some good tunes, but nothing amazing.
Completely forgettable.
I hadn't heard this before, but it's clearly an incredibly influential record. A lot of it feels 30 years ahead of its time.
Banger after banger.
Lots of great songs, but not one of their best albums.
Some important and lovely songs, but (especially considering I was presented with an extended edition) mostly not all that.
Decent, but the songs are overly long.
Objectively good, just not for me.
Good tunes.
Ok, but forgettable.
Lovely stuff.
This is fine. No strong feelings one way or the other.
Great mix of phenomenal tunes and weirdness. Love it.
Love it. First album that has come up on here that I've already head dozens of times.
Decent stuff. Always love Sexy Boy and Kelly Watch the Stars.
Honestly didn't give this the attention it probably deserves. Enjoyable enough though.
Love this one. Hadn't heard it in ages.
Great tunes! Really joyous.
So many recognisable and enjoyable songs, but I've heard them all so often that they're kind of just wallpaper to me.
Fun. I didn't realise how many of their songs I already knew.
Mother is always a great song. Plenty to enjoy here.
Always enjoyable.
Some good moments, but mostly self-indulgent nonsense.
Dylan's never been for me, but some big hits on here.
Not something I'd heard before, but right up my street.
All time classic.
I was surprised by how many songs I knew considering I hadn't heard of the band. Good stuff.
Not for me. Bit too country.
Mixed bag. Some good, some fine, some too weird. Clearly very experimental and influential though.
Actual proper genius.
A little bit of "separating art from artist", but the music is excellent.
Absolutely fine, but not something I'm that excited about.
Solid, but not as spectacular as their debut.
Some good covers, but otherwise not for me.
Didn't do much for me, but it was fine.
Actual artless garbage. Worst album on 1001 albums so far.
Like the Arctic Monkeys were raised on the Italian Riviera instead of Sheffield. Lovely.
Fine, but not my thing.
I was surprised by how much of this album I already knew and enjoyed. Good stuff.
Always amazing.
I'm sure this is fine, and it had some moments, but it really wasn't for me at all.
Really cinematic stuff. Liked it a lot.
Pretty fun! And I can see a direct influence on the Mighty Boosh funk stuff.
Always great.
Really good. Love me some John Grant. His lyrics are unique and his voice has a really rich quality to it.
This was fine, but not my thing.
Some really good tunes here, but nothing particularly for me.
It's good, but christ alive is it long!
Like somewhere between hold music and the Sesame Street theme tune, but good.
Some clever stuff here, surprised I hadn't heard it before.
Enjoyable slice of 80s. Killing Moon is a classic.
An all time classic. For Alex and the boys to have produced stuff of this quality when they were teenagers is ridiculous. Such talent.
Really enjoyable stuff.
One of those bands I'd heard a lot about but hadn't spent time listening to. Enjoyable and clearly inspired so many bands that followed, but occasionally hard to get through.
Not my favourite Eno stuff, but it was fine.
I hadn't really appreciated how good this is until now. Top stuff.
Fine stuff. Not bad, not great.
Fine.
Nothing special for me, but I can appreciate it probably was at the time.
This has been one of my favourite albums of all time for about 20 years now. Love it so much.
Very enjoyable, reminded me a lot of Blood Orange.
More 60s folkish stuff. Getting a bit bored of it now.
Enjoyable, but not amazing.
I've never been keen on screaming in music, but otherwise this was ok.
Yet another underwhelming 60s record.
Obviously critically important, but some lyrics have not stood the test of time.
Loved this album since it came out.
Good stuff. Layla is an all time classic.
How in the world this is one of the best albums of all time is beyond me, but I'm no musical historian.
Obvious classic, but I didn't pay it enough attention to give it a proper rating.
Turns out I like The Fall, who knew?
I'm sure it's hugely influential, but I just didn't enjoy this.
I'd forgotten how much I enjoyed this one.
I enjoyed this more than I had previously imagined I would.
Enjoyable Christmas classics.
I can see there is art and effort in there, but it's too much like noise for me to truly enjoy it.
Not on Spotify.
An all time classic, even if it isn't all to my taste.
I've not always been a big fan of Primal Scream, but this is probably them at their best.
Forgettable, but in a good way.
Definitely my cup of tea. I only knew the title track before, but this is good stuff.
Truly excellent stuff.
All. Time. Classic.
