1001 Albums Summary

Like a 2/5. Walk on the Wild side and Vicious does a lot of heavy lifting. He just isn't a good singer

Pretty good, has that influenced by the beetles sound. 3.5/10

Some great songs. Very quick album. 4/5

5/5 great album with kick ass beats. It's a little long. But fantastic.

Not a Bowie fan :(

Stop giving me absolute mid euro rock. Song 2 is just ok. The rest I literally skipped through.

Much better than I thought it was going to be. Feels like the progenitor of the RAMONES

Much much better than I expected. Saved a couple of songs off it. Didn't explore the French side.

One of my favorite albums, hit me when I was still a kid. Great on a re-listen.

The music would be good, until the singer starts on all these tracks. I get why it's an important album. I'm literally never listening to it again.

My wife loves Van Morrison. Hates his live stuff because he elongates every song and mumbles through the entire song. It was fine.

It's a great album. When I told my wife I got this one, she mentioned that a bunch of the songs sound the same. She wasn't wrong. That knocks it from a 5/5

Actually pretty good great!

Great album. So so so good. Much better than the last live van Morrison album

Doesn't hold up. Obvs.

Good album! Some fun songs.

It's a mid beach Boys album

Not that great

The album and lyrics are good, but it's in the Bob Dylan zone where I'm not sure Willie is a good singer.

Great album! So many songs I was unsure if they wrote them, or covered them. Some songs a little to long.

It felt like one, very long, song.

Much better than the other one I listened to by them. Its cool because, a lot of the instrumental reminds me of current rock/indie. Was a fun listen, but the lead vocals are trash at times

Eh, it was long winded and faded into the background of what I was doing.

So many British punk albums. What the fuck. We can have less on this list

It didnfall into that normal problem with funk, where the songs kinda blend together and have a 30 second intro and 45 second outro.

I liked it more than I thought I would. Listened to the front half, liked the energy of it.

I liked it more than I thought I would. Listened to the front half, liked the energy of it.

Good, but some songs are to long and, like, self absorbed?

Almost a true 5/5 some of the songs stick with you, some are just to self-involved. I'll listen to thos album again in the future.

Difficult to understand what the main singer is saying. Come on Eileen is still a banger. Would be 2/5 if not for that song

It's pretty good. Like, it's a 3.75, but not a 4

Eh, shortish and chill. Barely fine.

It's jazz

It was just ok

Yeah, I'll join the club in not getting this album

A pretty good listen.

Great singer. All the songs sound very similair

Actually like, pretty good. Color me surprised. An easy listen in a good way.

Such. A. Great. Album. We aren't talking about Stevie Wonder enough. Loved almost every track. Stayed a little long, still easily 5 stars.

It's really not my style. All the songs are soooooooo long.

Picture in your head, what does a French music album sound like? It's this. This is the album.

Good, classic country

One of my favorite bands/albums of all time <3

Good album! Especially for his first. Some songs are forgettable. 3.5/5

It was all right. Not my cup of tea.

Always liked this album. The one sticking point is, I don't love their use of static in some of the songs, otherwise it would be a 5/5.

I get it, but now for me

Has some great songs on it. Otherwise forgettable

The songs sound pretty similar, but it's a good first album

The first four tracks are the most famous and really showcase what to expect. I'd call this "boombox rap", it's made to be played loud for everyone to hear. Not a big fan of the type of the rap flavor, feels like I'm constantly being yelled at lol

Good, but not for me

Americans trying to be the Beatles. Not bad, but not something I liked

Good enough. Some tracks were great, some faltered

Not for me

I get it, but a bit to much

It's like, much worse NIN.

It was good! Very of the time,

Mid, don't know why it's hear except historical context

I liked it a lot! Didn't know Rod Stewart sounded like this

Q lot of the songs felt exactly the same. Also very aggressive and horny at times. Still some bangers on here though

Honestly, it's not that great. Feels like at the moment. She was a "breath of fresh air", but listening now there's a bunch of better artists that I'd rather listen too.

It's good fench rap

I appreciate this guy having UK roots, but this album only serves to show where Punk has come from. And it's roots aren't great. Never sniffs the Clash once

I wanted to like this so much more than I did. Indie noise at best

Kind of insane all these hits came from this album. That being said, every song is a minute and a half to long

Just ok

It's all right. Not my style

I didn't like the first two songs The rest were good

It was good, but felt very samey

Great pop album. Stands the test of time

It's got some great singles. Great sound. 4.5 out of ten. Gonna round down though

Not fir me

I get it, but not for me

Good, to slow

More mid indie noise

Incredibly 80s, not for me, but good enough

Some hits, but a bunch of chaff as well

Most of the songs sound exactly the same but it's still good

Very 80s, but fun!

I mean, it's a 5/5 for me.

Apparently this guy sucks in real life

It's exactly what you'd expect the band behind "sweet dreams are made of these" to sound like

Mid brit pop. With that 80s mystique for the singer where they don't really sing, but melodically moan into the mic

A good precursor on what's to come in punk. Listen past the first song 100%

Good enough, but not for me

This is probably sacrilege, but it's a little long...

It's Jazz. Good jazz but just jazz. Not my flavor

It's international.music. like I get it, but not for me.

No

I thought I'd like it more...

Ok, I unexpectedly really liked this album Closer to 5 than 4

In a previous life, I could see myself jamming to this on like, a record player. Not this life though.

Don't like the singers voice. Like everything else. The big country is a funny song

Again, just get why it's probably important. But it's not very good

Really good, closer to 5 than 4

I liked this so much more than I thought i would. Just such awesome energy

Indie noise

I'm not sure. Will come back to it

I do not like Sonic Youth. Don't get the hype

Good not great. I expected more i think

More brit pop

Just nor for me

Like, it's elevator music with 80s breath songing

Its exactly what it looks like.

I do not like Frank Zappa as a singer on a lot of these tracks

His voice can be so annoying

I'm just not a fan of prince

I believe in a thing called love is a banger. But the singers voice gets so grating on the other tracks

Some absolute bangers, but some are just bad. Uneven album thats closer to 4 than 3

I didn't give it a great listen. But nothing caught me in this album as important

If i didn't hate the singing, an easy 4

Divorced dad country

Bongos

A great album. I wasn't expecting it at all

Short, but great. You can tell who he has influenced

Honestly, pretty great

Some great breakout songs, but eventually I just get tired of the Kurt Cobain groaning.

Some songs are tooooooo long

Not good....

One of my favorites

A bunch of early indie groaning

What the fuck is this shit
