1001 Albums Summary

Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere by Neil Young & Crazy Horse

Songs From The Big Chair by Tears For Fears

Liquid Swords by GZA

It is offensive that the YouTube link for this excludes the movie clip from the beginning, and blanks out cocaine on the first track.

Parklife by Blur

Not really my favorite, too pop-ie

Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & The Holding Company

I've heard Janice Joplin many times -- I never knew this band existed, and it was excellent. Particularly Summertime. She's got so much style!

So by Peter Gabriel

The Bends by Radiohead

Forgot how great this album is.

Nevermind by Nirvana

Secret song is stupid. Rest of the album is excellent.

Bad Company by Bad Company

Maggot Brain by Funkadelic

I swear i've heard other funkadelic albums that i liked better

Transformer by Lou Reed

Surprised how little i liked this album. Sometimes Lou Reed/Velvet Underground really do it for me: perfect day, walk on the wild side, and rock & roll.

Either Or by Elliott Smith

Tago Mago by Can

Cross by Justice

White Light by Gene Clark

Five Leaves Left by Nick Drake

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road by Elton John

LP1 by FKA twigs

Very different than anything else i listen to, but also refreshing and cool.

Marquee Moon by Television

I don't believe i've ever heard this before, unfortunately it sounds the same is a significant portion of music i've heard my entire life. Where i bet in the context of when it came out it'd have been maybe a bit different?

Disraeli Gears by Cream

I'd probably give it a 5 stars if it had white room on it.

The Number Of The Beast by Iron Maiden

I never gave iron maiden a fair shake i guess. Run to the hills is excellent if depressing.

It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back by Public Enemy

Meat Puppets II by Meat Puppets

Really see the influence they had on nirvana's at least on cobain's singing style.

Water From An Ancient Well by Abdullah Ibrahim

It'd be cool to know what made this different/special at the time. To me it sounds like most jazz i hear; which isn't all that much, and is probably the point. Easy on the ears, smooth.

Truth And Soul by Fishbone

With The Beatles by Beatles

Sort of expected sgt. peppers, the white album, or maybe rubber soul guess this one is definitive early beatles. It'd be great to know why this album was chosen, suppose you have to read the book for that.

Queens of the Stone Age by Queens Of The Stone Age

On The Beach by Neil Young

Straight Outta Compton by N.W.A.

Cool, to see the evolution of grangsta rap which i skipped until the tupac/wu-tang era

Welcome To The Pleasuredome by Frankie Goes To Hollywood

Jazz Samba by Stan Getz

Low by David Bowie

Suzanne Vega by Suzanne Vega

3 Years, 5 Months And 2 Days In The Life Of... by Arrested Development

Music From Big Pink by The Band

Dummy by Portishead

The Next Day by David Bowie

Cut by The Slits

Crime Of The Century by Supertramp

At San Quentin by Johnny Cash

(Pronounced 'Leh-'Nérd 'Skin-'Nérd) by Lynyrd Skynyrd

In my light googling i couldn't determine if the band was actually racist, or at least supported "old south", it seems like maybe, maybe not. I'm also not sure how that should effect ranking - yeah it's fucking awful. The music sounded good.
