1001 Albums Summary

Some songs were great while others just kind of missed. 7.5/10

Don’t love this album. Feels soulless and uninspired. Where Are We Now? Was a bright spot, but there wasn’t much else. 4/10.

Great album. Starts a little slowly but really picks up speed toward the middle. Very much an early grunge album before ‘grunge’ was used to describe music. 9/10

Wow! I had heard a few Yeah Yeah Yeahs songs before (and like them) but I was not expecting this. What a great album. No song is lacking. The whole album is dynamic and the lead singer is perfect. How this band didn’t take over the world in the 00s is lost on me. Highlights are Heads will Roll, Dull Life, Runaway, Little Shadow. 10/10.

Really not my type of music. Felt very dated and not enjoyable. I can see why someone might like it, but just not me. 2/10.

Johnny is a legend. This album was great. The songs were some of his hits, but the real magic was in his interactions with the audience. 8/10.

What can I say one of the classic albums from one of the best artist of all time. Definitely not my favorite Dylan album, but it’s a great one. 9/10.

Really solid album. Good songs throughout. 8/10

Really enjoyable. I’ve listened to some of The XX before, but didn’t realize how mellow their other songs were. 7/10.

I was pleasantly surprised by this album. I had, of course, heard Somebody to Love and White Rabbit, but wasn’t expecting much from the rest of the album. Many of the songs reminded me of Velvet Underground or Bob Dylan. 8/10

Structurally wonky but sonically beautiful. I wouldn't be surprised to find out that bands I enjoy were inspired by this album. However, I don’t think it’s one I will go back to often. 7/10

A pretty mediocre album. Some obviously famous songs, but pretty boring otherwise. 5/10

I was kind of surprised at how many songs on this album I remember being radio hits back in the day. However, this album felt very dated. I was kind of bored after a few songs. 6/10.

I’m going to be honest, this was the first album that I couldn’t get all the way through. It was very boring and very repetitive. I’m sure someone somewhere really enjoys that album, but it is definitely not me. 2/10.

In this album has some high points, but for the most part, it felt like a very dated album. Clearly, Terrence has a beautiful voice, and really, that carried most songs. 6/10.
