1001 Albums Summary

Bryter Layter by Nick Drake

Singer/ songwriter with an airy voice and an acoustic guitar. However, this is blended perfectly with (depending on the track) 60’s room filling orchestras, small club jazz trio, Charlie Brown piano, and even pop soul. Beautiful album. First time hearing. Fantastic start!

Songs In The Key Of Life by Stevie Wonder

Essential! More to it than well constructed pop. Experimental at times.

Parsley, Sage, Rosemary And Thyme by Simon & Garfunkel

Not my vibe.

The Bends by Radiohead

Classic

Ready To Die by The Notorious B.I.G.

I appreciate it being influential, but Od rather listen to Busta Rhymes.

Dusty In Memphis by Dusty Springfield

When I want Motown, but don’t. Wall of sound.

Buena Vista Social Club by Buena Vista Social Club

Now I have an answer to the question, “Do you know of any Cuban artists?” Endlessly replayable.
