1001 Albums Summary

Cool beats, good background music.

Sounds futuristic in 2023

Love the bits of country twang sprinkled in. Hard to deny her voice and some of the arrangements are really incredible, unfortunately not my cup o' tea otherwise would be higher.

Dope. Maybe a bit too long.

Good ol' rock 'n' roll, really fun album, nothing too special. Still in Love with You and the transition from Cowboy Song to The Boys Are Back in Town were standout moments for me.

Super interesting, original.

Chill af.

I'm a sucker for an album with a definitive aesthetic, so an iconic album cover is somewhat of an unfair head-start, but the music is just as good, if not better. Loving the horns and background singers throughout, feels very much like an artistic or theatrical performance as opposed to just music, which is on of the reasons why I think Bowie is such a legend. Great opener and incredible closer, wide range of tunes in between while keeping the fun of classic rock. Easy, and first, 5 stars.

This is what you think of when you hear the word "jazz". Just good, smooth listening. Something to lounge and smoke cigars and drink whiskey to.

Some gnarly guitar and some gnarly bongos.

Based off the album cover, was not expecting a punk opener. Good variety and super fun throughout, great lyrics, big Television vibes in the guitar work, Blondie an obvious comparison in many parts, even some reggae vibes on Private Life (No Doubt MUST have listened to these guys). Was never too familiar with these guys outside of Tatooed Love Boys from GH2 (lol), enjoyed it.

"BIG" sounding album, pretty hard for a Queen album. Enjoyed the fantasy/lore aspects of some of the songs. Solid listen.

Very 90's, grungy, crunchy guitar. Contemporary comparison would be Drug Church.

I mean it's some heartfelt shit but, like, not likely to revisit.

Pssssychadelic, no big standouts. Lots of sounds you hear in psych rock today which is cool.
