1001 Albums Summary

digging the following tracks: - pink moon - place to be - things behind the sun - harvest breed not a huge fan of some of the other tracks - the album cover is cool though... turns out it's one of these cult albums, dude died super young, had depression, etc.

i remember when this came out it was all over the place. felt kinda different for the time stylewise especially with how much attention it was getting. also crazy to see how many singles come out of this (rehab, you know i'm no good, back to black, tears dry on their own, etc.)

almost got totally put off by the first track liking: sunshine of your love, world of pain, tales of brave ulysses, outside woman blues, take it back giving it a few more listens and it grows on you

some of the instrumental tracks are decent, but couldn't really get too into it

not sure about that first track (could get better after some listens) but there's some solid stuff: valentine's day the stars are out tonight boss of me how does the grass grow you will set the world on fire atomica like a rocket man born in a ufo god bless the girl way better bowie albums out there though.

really solid tracks: holidays in the sun liar no feelings god save the queen bodies EMI great album

ch-ch-ch-ch-changes great tracks: changes oh you pretty thing life on mars? kooks quicksand andy warhol song for bob dylan queen bitch great album, beginning-to-end listen

thought i'd hate this, but some catchy tracks: wesley's theory king kunta these walls hood politics how much a dollar cost i mortal man

probably pretty cool for the times (90's) reminds me of some FLA and RATM tracks only got into a few tracks, the rest aren't really doing it even if the lyrics are meaningful: satanic reverses famous and dandy everyday life has become a health risk financial leprosy

cool tracks: chain gang cupid twistin' the night away somebody have mercy bring it on home to me having a party live isn't cool

tracks: cracked actor time the prettiest star lady grinning soul there's better but after a few listens it gets better too

that album cover right here, right now rockafeller skank fucking in heaven gangster tripping you're not from brighton

tracks: down to the waterline sultans of swing lions this album is a bit of a stinker, surprising anyone let them go on to make 5 more.

wow, what a stinker - absolutely ghastly ululating

megaboring music that should've remained in the 60's. \"Favorite Decade 1970\" not any more.

cool cover this is the kind of thing they have blasting on the sonos at those local cafes clarice onde andaras superbacana paisagem util clara
