1001 Albums Summary

Very raw and emotional lyrics. The jazz influenced instrumentals have an experimental sound that almost mimics Apple’s unwound emotions while creating the album. Enjoyed it immensely.

Reminded me of many post-punk projects with heavy influences of funk on the bass lines. Wasn't impressed by the overall aesthetic of the album nor the lyrics, but I can tell how it has influenced many modern day acts.

Enjoyed it very much. Can definitely see how it influenced glam rock.

Great album. Started a bit slow for me, but by the end I was hooked. While I do feel it is over verbose at times with its lyrics, the multiple genres that Costello is able to hit with espectacular results is nothing short of incredible.

This album is absolutely beautiful. How can you not enjoy Ms. Simone at her peak? Almost 60 years later and it’s still a classic.

What an amazing album that I had no idea existed. “Tiny Dancer” has an opener is absolutely perfect, but the way Elton goes almost into prog rock throughout the album made this a masterpiece for me. “Indian Sunset” is the high point.

One of the greatest albums of all time still remains timeless.

If there’s a classic worthy of its name, it’s “Electric Ladyland”. Jimi Hendrix creates a new soundscape and revolutionizes guitar playing at the same time. What is there not to love?

A classic oh psychedelic rock. Jimi Hendrix is an innovator and a guitar god, I don’t deny that. But this wasn’t for me.

High tempo, high energy. A classic of punk rock, I felt like every song kind of sounded the same. It’s not to speak ill of the album, but it just wasn’t for me.

Good pop-rock album, but nothing extraordinary.

Had some good tunes. I can see how it influenced contemporary alternative/indie, but I couldn’t just get into it.
