1001 Albums Summary

Classic nu-metal sound of my youth. Great at karaoke or beat saber. RIP Chester

Listened to the LP, hope it’s not the only Steely Dan on the list.

Adding to the jazz rotation. Probably didn’t get the weirder bits but it was listenable to an untrained ear and maybe less overplayed than some other greats.

Found it crazy that this album was so popular whilst being so inventive/genre bending. I even bought Clint Eastwood on CD - maybe my first CD single?? Maybe I have to give it a 3 because I really like the B-side, Dracula.

Probably hugely influential for loads of artists I like. Also slightly unreal this was 1994. Glory Box is a classic. Wouldn’t listen again but appreciate it for what it is.

Between a 2 and a 3. Loved the orchestra, felt like Evanescence for men. Really enjoyed listening but can’t give it a 3 as I wouldn’t put it on again.

I feel like you had to be there. As with many albums, probably influenced loads of artists I like today. And Brian Eno is great. Probably need someone to explain it to me.

I don’t get it. Feels like music for younger male boomers?

Enjoyed this but wouldn’t put on again. Too close to (listening to) Elvis Costello.

Could hear the influences of so many 2000s albums I loved. Would give a 3.5 if I could, was great, probably wouldn’t listen again

Loved it, what a story, American GIs in Germany, protopunk, krautrock, noisy madness. Probably won't listen again but gets a 4 because it's rad.

First Rush album I've ever listened to. I do enjoy a bit of prog but maybe not this prog? Also didn't help that I listened on crappy headphones at the library, while studying. 3.5 - would probably listen again to see if I like it.

Eh... makes me think of when my mum puts on a song from her youth and listens to it over and over. I guess you had to be there. Kind of blends in to other glam rock (and other genres) that I am more familiar with. If Wikipedia's only reference is that it appears on '1001...' then has it really had impact? I guess it's a long list.

I didn't want to like this (underage incest marriage and worse) but I did. Would be impossible not to get sweaty from dancing to this.

Enjoyed this more than I thought I would. Maybe easier/less trite to put on in the background?

Fun easy listening, cool part of history.

Boring, short, sexist, racist. Some folky bits I liked but probably done better by other artists

Just not for me
