1001 Albums Summary

2/10 - decent sounds on some songs, but too weird for my taste Very mellow beginning I can't decide if the singer has a good voice or not, very lightly singing in the first song. The second song is way more upbeat, singer kind of growling vocals? I'm not into this so far Weird organ synth? Songs last too long Lots of nice guitar playing, lyrics are weird and just not vibing This isn't for me, strange lyrics and experimental, not my thing I don't want to DNF my first album, but getting close Beginning To See The Light sounds good to start, but will probably last too long - yep, already getting worse Weird yodel? Listened to the first 6 songs straight through, will skim the remaining There's a cool binaural audio on The Murder Mystery, 60s always messing with switching channels What the heck is this? Each ear has a different monologue? This song would be a trip if high lol Who is the woman singing the final song? This album is such an experimental 60s thing

Somewhat mesmerizing, then there are loud noises Very mellow lyrics Cinematic is the right word! I can get behind this a bit Don't prefer the slow songs Actually growing on me some "Grounds for Divorce" has a good sound The lyrics are just random sometimes Weather to Fly is good The outros on these songs last forever "One Day Like This" is very good! Hard to say whether I liked it or not

I never care for McVie's lead vocals, every song she leads on I can't get into. Lindsey Buckingham continues his power lyrics and I enjoy them. This is by far my favorite album early on. I have always loved Rumours, so it's time I finally listened to Tusk. It doesn't hold that same high standard, but it is an enjoyable album. High 3/Low 4

A definite different kind of rock than I am used to with Queen. There is some really great guitar work and arrangement on these songs. I do prefer the more pop rock sound of later Queen. It is interesting to see where they come from! I did not dislike the sound of this album, but it continually got more and more operatic and strange. I would have rated the first half of the album higher than the second half. Upon research, Mercury wrote all of the B-side of this album while May wrote almost all of the A. I definitely prefer the A-side. I'd lean high 2, probably 2.5 if possible.

So slow and boring nearly the entire time. Ray has great lyrics, but this just doesn't do it for me. I tried to give it a go, but I can't make it all the way through. I like the 60s, however, not these 60s.

I gave it a go. Common uses fairly clear dictation, I can understand him better than a lot of rappers. I didn't care for the lyrics. I tried for a few songs until he started talking about if God was a woman. Talking about if he was dating this woman. No thank you.

I just don’t like these concept albums. “I Can See for Miles” is a great song on a bad album. DNF again.

This album surprised me. I have never been a fan of Motown necessarily. I generally stray away from it. I have always liked "Chain of Fools" and "Natural Woman." Both classics and the rest of this album was very nice as well! I'm glad to finally enjoy the majority of an album. I would like to give 3.5 if possible, but will lean towards 4.

What even are these lyrics? Lemmy cannot sing at all. Just random thoughts being spewed out every song. Very questionable lyrics, just ridiculous. "Ace of Spades" is the only song worthwhile, the rest are just garbage. I wish I could go lower than 1 star.

I really enjoyed this album! I have heard Doors songs, but never looked into them beyond the big hits. This album sounds so good and is very impressive for the era. This is my kind of music. I stray from giving 5 stars out of principle, I reserve that for albums with no skips that really agree with me. This would be 4.5 if possible.

Some really good sounding music on this album. Some of Def Leppard's most famous songs, but also some very forgettable songs at the same time. Sometimes can sound repetitive. "Photograph" and "Rock of Ages" are classics, but not exactly an unskippable album.

It's a cool sound, but I'm not sure I remember any of the lyrics. A punk/grunge vibe, definitely not the next coming of Nirvana. I would listen to some of the songs again, but nothing is an absolute must listen. 3.5

This was so good! As soon as I started it, I had a feeling I might be heading to my first 5-star ever! This did not disappoint, I was hooked. This mellow tone and folk sound is just my style. A truly great album that I would listen to again!

"America" and "Mrs. Robinson" are great songs, but other than that it kind of just drones on and on. A sharp contrast to the Cat Stevens album from yesterday. I wouldn't listen to the rest of the songs again.

Boring. The soft pop sound is just blehhh for me. Nothing stands out and I didn't want to listen to any more. Not sure why this album is on the list. Others that I didn't like I can see significance in. Not with this one.

Just okay, kinda weird. Nothing stood out as a favorite and I wouldn't caret to listen to it again.

An overall great sound and album. I have always enjoyed R.E.M. This was a good experience to hear some of their other songs and reconnect with ones I had forgotten about. There are some very strange ones on this album that make it a lower 4/higher 3. Just some random lyrics.

It has some good sounds. I really liked Disorder, just kind of long and repetitive at times.

Strange, but haunting. Some very sadistic/satanic lyrics. Sounds cool, but I wouldn't choose this.

Just isn't it for me. The experimental sounds with the long instrumentals is never going to be good for me.

Just not my thing. I can appreciate the music, but lyrics are heavy and depressing. I would never choose to listen to RATM again.

I feel like I enjoy this more than earlier Temptations. I have never been a big fan of Motown, this kind of straddles the line there. It is fairly enjoyable and has some songs I vibe with. Low end middle of the road for me.

A lot of noise and none of it good.

I can understand where this comes from musically, but I can't enjoy it. I would rather listen to this some of the others I have had so far, so I will rate it a 2. 1.5 if possible.

This is a fun listen. I had heard of him and some of his songs before, but this is the first time listening intently. There are a couple of weird songs, but overall a fun read with some hits.

Two of the best 60s and a lot of iffy filler. I wanted to like this more as I am a huge fan of "California Dreamin" and "Monday Monday," but it wasn't there for me.
