1001 Albums Summary

I can appreciate it as a classic for its time but it wasn't my cup of tea.

At the end of the album, my Spotify put on a new song at random and I immediately knew Psychocandy had finished because I was enjoying the new song.

I thought I liked T. Rex, but this album really bugged me. I can't put my finger on exactly why; perhaps a bit repetitive, and the vocals a bit whiney for my taste? All I know is that I was happy when it finished.

A tad too chaotic for my taste but some of those rounds gave me goosebumps.

I liked the overall sound of the band. Loved the guitar; the singer often sounded like he'd had one too many beers and got up to sing karaoke. It was odd that all the songs ran into each other... hard to distinguish between one ending and another beginning. The lyrics leave a lot to be desired... "Twinkle twinkle, blah blah blah, E T C" I mean... 'You need the glory', wtf was that all about?? Overall, I liked it, but I wouldn't listen again.

Loved the first track. Wasn't as much of a fan as the second.

Why does the ending to 'On Some Faraway Beach' sound like an annoying kid playing a keyboard they found in the other kid's room at the party their parents took them to?

This grew on me. I particularly liked It Could Be Sweet, Roads and Glory Box.

I really liked the melodies, but the singer often reminded me of a drunk uncle making up his own song at karaoke. Throughout this entire album, I went between "This is quite good!" to "Wtf am I listening to". Overall I enjoyed it, and I would listen to a good few of these songs again 👍🏻
