1001 Albums Summary

Decent album, brings back some memories from middle school days, but not something I need to listen to often in the future

Very easy listening. Couple of bangers and leaves you in a very good mood after listening

Took me a couple of days to get through. Feel like I needed to be in the right mood for it. Once I gave it an honest listen, it turned out to be a decent album, but don’t think I’ll need to listen to this one again.

Meh. Fun sounds, listenable album. But not going to go out of my way to hear it again.

Loved this. No clue what they are saying in any of the songs, but had great sounds and would be great background noise.

Not worth listening to again. I’ve never understood any of the hype behind Bruce Springsteen and this just solidifies that.

Very much liked this. Hasn’t heard more than Smoke on the Water in the past, but this proved to be a great album. Would definitely listen to again.

Decent album, fun sounds, accurate depiction of lower class lifestyle

Holds up all these years later. Takes me back to the high school days.

Not my favorite sound of the 80’s. Doesn’t seem to have held up.

Not a great album, probably only on here because she died.

Classic album, as good as ever all these years later!

Loved this! Great live performance that I will have to put into my regular rotation.

Great album, so many good songs on here and some nice nostalgia going on with it.

Meh

Great live show, you can feel the energy of the band and the crowd. Definitely going to mix this into the regular rotation.

Easy listening. Enjoyable album. Would listen again.

Not a big fan of country, but I found this enjoyable to listen to and it seems like she’s one of the pioneers.

Decent album. Easy listening. Don’t see myself listening to it again though.

A couple of good songs, but easy to get bored of quickly

Couple of good songs and a good overall sound. Don’t think I’ll invest in this one again though

Hasn’t held up after all these years. Not really distinguishable from any of the other pop of that era.

Better than I was expected. Has held up after 40 years pretty well.

Nothing special. Generic sound of that era. Not sure why it’s on the list.

Fun album. Probably influential for its time. Not really something I’ll probably listen to again though.

Fun album. Will listen to again

Not as good as I remember. Too many filler songs and doesn’t hold up as well as some of his others

Meh

Christmas songs suck

Dunno why this is on the list. Nothing spectacular about this

Classic album. Easy listening. Holds up well enough and was influential during its time.

Decent, but very confused why it’s on this list.

Classic album

Sounded very repetitive.

Very good

Meh

Hit after hit. Great album!

Fantastic album. I need to listen to more Radiohead.

Decent

Probably very great back in the day. Very repetitive for todays standards though

Great album! Easy listening and he carried the crowd.

Not my favorite

Solid album that had held up

Lot of good jams on here.

Hated it at first, grew on me over time. Probably won’t listen to this again.

Good album, just not really my preference in music

Fantastic!

Decent, don’t see any strong reason to revisit though

Solid album. One of their better ones that I know of.

Very long. Some decent jams, probably would’ve been fun to have been there live, but ultimately I don’t need to listen to that much of The Who consecutively.

Classic album. A lot of good songs.

Meh

Probably good for it’s time. Not what I’m trying to listen to today

Some classics on here. Easy listening.

Decent album. I might listen to it again

Great sound. Unique album. Will be listening again.

Great album. Incredible that it still holds up over 60 years later.

Not sure how this is on the list

This might be more a theme of a bunch of meh albums recently, but I’m having a hard time understanding why some of these are on here

Not my favorite

Really enjoyed this. Easy listening and fun sounds

Lot of good ones on here. Will listen to it again

A couple of good songs. All in all, don’t think this is one I’ll revisit

This album is as smooth as it gets. I expect nothing less from Curtis Mayfield

Honestly a very good album. No song really sticks out to me after having listened to it, but easy listening and a good sound

Yep. This album hits.

Decent album for its time I imagine. Not what I’m trying to listen to these days though.

Good album, but not really for me.

Pretty good. Nothing super memorable though.

Great voice, but not gonna give this another go.

Very good and worth another listen

This isn’t it. Honesty couldn’t wait for this album to end.

Decent enough, but probably just for nostalgia reasons. Don’t think this will find its way into the regular rotation for me

Lots of classics on here

Pretty good, easy to listen to and enjoyable without understand the lyrics

Real funky love album. Can be put on in the background while working and it’s not distracting

Very fun album. Easy land enjoyable listening.

Good album, great voice

I’d like to like this more because I know it’s a classic influential album, but it’s just not really my cup of tea

Did not realize how many absolute bangers were on this album. Great from start to finish

Have never understood why people like this guy so much. It’s not absolutely awful, but it’s far from good.

Very good album. Always worth throwing on one of his and was glad to see this one in the mix here

Exactly what to expect from AC/DC. Good album with a lot of great songs, but ultimately it’s just a lot of the same thing over and over.

A few good songs, definitely not their best work, but a good indicator of where they started

Decent but easily forgetable album

Great album! Will be listening to again.

Loved it!

Not for me

Not for me

All sorts of smooth. Songs and album holds up many years later

Great album! So many songs I’ve heard before but didn’t realize who the artist was.

The same poppy sound for 40 minutes. Couldn’t wait for this to end

Fantastic!

Couldn’t understand a word, but loved the sound and passion he sings with.

Not that great

Great album.

A little too moody for me. Similar to Depeche Mode

Probably good for its time. Pleasant to listen to, but don’t think I’ll be giving it another listen

As expected with Bowie, it’s a very good album. Don’t think it’s a great one though.

Proof that not every album a band puts out is gold

Pretty easy listening and a quick album. Easy to get some work done while hearing and put me in a better mood.

Loved this. A lot of influences are obvious from the differing sounds. 10 years ago, this would’ve been in a regular rotation for me. Might find its way into that category today anyway.

Fun album, but not one I see myself listening to often in the future. Probably would’ve been listening to this regularly 50 years ago

This guy is a helluva poet. I think he has better albums, but this one is worth listening to

Short and sweet. Carried the crowd very well

Not awful, but nothing memorable about this that would make me want to listen to again

Couple of good songs. Not worth the whole album though for me

Decent easy listening. Not a great overall album though. Got a little repetitive and wanted it to be over sooner

Meh

A lot of good songs and one of Bob Marley’s best. If I was still in my high school weed smoking days, it’d be 5 stars. Instead it’s 4.

Absolutely loved this. Listened to the last song multiple times after the album finished.

Pretty good. Similar sound to The Rolling Stones. Very energetic album, but ultimately not for me.

This is trash

Great from start to finish

A few bangers, but honestly drags on for a while

Absolutely fantastic. The only issue is that I have never heard this before.

As expected, fantastic album

I’ve heard worse from him. Still bad though

Meh

Good voice. Album is a little too slow and just not for me though

Decent, album felt longer than it was though, so that can’t be a good thing for me

Pretty good. Nice range of songs and an enjoyable listen

Fantastic.

Classic. Back to back great tracks

Lot of great songs on here and a relatively quick album. Easy to not get burned out by the Stones

Really surprised I liked this as much as I did. Listened to it twice in a row. Very enjoyable and easy to do some coding work at the same time.

Good album, though I might be influenced by the popular songs from this. Ultimately don’t think I’ll listen to the entirety of this again

Not worth it

Nah

Decent easy listening. Couple of good songs, but I think they have better albums

Real easy listening and a good album. Just too long

Not for me

Not for me

I can see how some would like it, but ultimately not for me

Not ABBA’s best work

This is easily forgetable and won’t be listened to again

I don’t see any reason why this album should be on here. Not worth anyone’s time to listen to

Not for me

Short but sweet. Easy listening and better than a lot of other crap that has been on here.

This was fantastic!

Fantastic

Right up my alley

Probably holds its place in being influential, but just not really for me. Too long.

Classic album, every song is great

Very enjoyable and upbeat

Decent album, probably much better 60 years ago. Doesn’t hold up as well today

Ended up dragging on a bit too long. I think I just don’t really like the Beastie Boys, but I understand the relevance of this album

Pretty good while listening, but ultimately largely unforgettable shortly after and no part of it do I want to go back and hear again

Fantastic

Yep, this one is great. Only part that jammed me up is that Apple Music didn’t have it available for the US. So listened in YouTube and got interrupted with ads

Non stop hits. Great album and great storyteller

Really good sound, didn’t find myself getting tired of listening to it.

Loved it!

Seems I’m not really a fan of talking heads

Listened to it a few days ago and nothing is memorable about it

Pretty good for listening to while doing my job, but don’t think it’s something I’d seek out

Fantastic

Possibly his best album. Hit after hit.

Not for me. Don’t really see how it would be for anyone

Very relaxing. Easy to listen to while working

Decent and a lot of familiar songs. Won’t be listening to it again though

As expected, absolutely fantastic from start to finish

Way too long of an album. I enjoyed the sound initially but it just gets repetitive after a while. Don’t think this is one I’ll be coming back to

Very relaxing and easy listening. Crowd was into it as well

Very good album. Upbeat and probably killed it when it came out. Still holds up all these years later

A little too slow for me, though it does have a good sound to it.

I could listen to this regularly. I don’t think it’s great though, more of a guilty pleasure at that point in my life

Meh

Easy listening and decent enough, but not something I’ll come back to

Starting off, I didn’t think I would like this based on my taste in music, but it had good complexity to it and didn’t seem to drag on

Very good orchestra. I think their later stuff is better.

Fantastic more than 50 years later

Was going to give a 3, but the final two songs being live helped to boost this up and ended on a high note. Initially I was quickly growing tired of the sound, just not up my alley. But yeah, last song is banger for sure

Very relaxing and a brilliant composition

Start to finish, absolutely fantastic

Doesn’t hold up

Kind of an epic instrumental album

Not for me

Really enjoyable. Upbeat and a good voice

This isn’t it

Meh

Great voice, but won’t be returning to this

Not quite sure why this one was on here. Quite forgettable album

Very good. Lots of random sounds throughout, but was able to get me in the right mindset for work

Fantastic! In a world of Swifties there should be more Harvey’s

Great album, holds up with a lot of bangers still to this day

Wish I could get that 45 minutes of my life back. Horrendous nonsensical noise

As good as it gets

Really good. Had never heard any of these songs, but he rocked it

Short and sweet. Ultimately not something I’ll probably listen to again, but that seems to be the case for most of these

Not for me

Enjoyed this one a lot. Lots of catchy songs and seemed to cross multiple eras of rock

Kind of bland. Easy forgettable.

Not my cup of tea

Catchy, but also repetitive

Not really my cup of tea. Can’t see myself listening to this again

Couldn’t understand a word of it, but loved every minute of it

Great album, so easy to tune out the rest of the distractions and get some shit done

Too much like Talking Heads for me

Exactly what one would expect from Neil Young.

Yep

As good as it gets

Pretty good. A little bit of funk. Worth hearing again

Impressed at how good this was and that I’ve never heard it. Will definitely listen again

I didn’t hate it, but I won’t be coming back to it

Easy listening. Enjoyable album and would listen to again

Great album. Non stop hits

Meh

A little too out there for me. Not their best work

Enjoyable at the time, but writing this an hour after listening, it’s not memorable

Decent and catchy, but a bit too long and lacks real substance for me

Loved it. Fantastic sounds and perfect for a car ride

There is nothing about this album that could justify being on this list

Not for me

I’d listen to it again

Not for me

Good album and worth a listen, but not gonna make it into the regular rotation for me

Honestly pretty good. Has held up.

Great album

Not a bad album, but not for me

Easily forgettable

I’m torn here. It’s the entry album for him, but it’s just not that good. Other albums are significantly better

Couple of great classics on here, but ultimately not something I’ll end up listening to the whole thing again

Album was definitely carried by Maybe I’m Amazed. His voice is incredible, but won’t be listening to this full thing again

Incredible! More than half of the album could be considered a greatest hits for them.

Couple of decent songs on here, but overall doesn’t really do it for me

I didn’t want to like this as much as I did. But it’s pretty good

Decent. Probably paved the way for some other artists. But not for me

Way too long. Good range of styles, but ultimately just couldn’t wait for this to be done

So good! Not sure if I got all the songs on it or in order due to having to listen on YouTube. But loved every minute of it

Fantastic album! This was some great driving music and was a bit more obscure than many of the others I’ve gotten thus far. More of this type of thing please

Just a lot of senseless screaming and not very complex music

Not bad, not great

Really good album, could see myself listening to it again. Listened to it two times through.

Love this sound. Very haunting voice

Neil young is great, a few bangers on here but ultimately won’t be listening to the whole thing again

Nothing great about this one

Why is this on here? Very bland

This wasn’t for me

Great album, real easy listening

Not for me

Fantastic. Can’t believe this was produced in the mid 60’s

Too repetitive for me

Good, not great

Fantastic!

Decent

Just alright

Pretty good, but largely not unique vs other bands in this time period

Loved it. Easy listening and went by quick. Didn’t even noticed when the album started over

I could listen to this again, but won’t seek it out

A little too slow for me

Bob Dylan just isn’t for me. Couldn’t wait for this to be over

I could listen to this again. Fantastic album

Always a good one. Don’t think it’s their best though. I expect to see a few more on this list.

Mediocre at best

Not really for me

Love the cadence and tone of this album

Not really sure why this is on here

It’s a good album, but just not for me

Her voice is awful

This just isn’t for me

Not for me

Not his best work, in my opinion. A couple of real good songs though

I don’t think this holds up. But obviously holds its place in history

Enjoyed this until the last two songs. Won’t be listening again

Liked this a lot. Very easy listening

An all-time album here. Might be a bit of nostalgia going on, but it just hits.

Pretty good. Short album and has a couple of jams

Couple of good ones on here, but don’t need to hear it again

Probably hit really good 70 years ago, but not something that I’ll be revisiting

Really easy listening instrumental album. Don’t think I’d seek this out, but also wouldn’t turn it off

Not for me

Very enjoyable. Album flows.

There’s no reason this needed to be on here. Won’t be listening to this again.

Lot of variety on here, well worth the listen

I’d listen to this again

A classic

Meh

Nothing stands out about this

A couple of good songs, but I ultimately couldn’t wait for it to end

No reason to ever listen to this one again

Nothing special about this one

Nothing great here, feels like there are many more albums out there that could’ve been on here instead of this

Couldn’t get into this. Too slow for me

Right up my alley

Not for me. Easily forgettable

I’d listen to it again

Meh. Easy listening but nothing to write home about

Pretty solid complete album. A lot of emotion in it, but it might just be for nostalgic reasons for me. I’d listen to it again.

I just wasted 40+ listening to this garbage

Don’t need to hear that again

I think it’s great. The song “How do you Sleep” hits so hard especially

Just doesn’t quite hold up anymore. A few good songs, but mostly just filler

Not feeling it

I’d listen to it again

I don’t see any reason why this is a must listen album

Great live album. Having the symphony play with them was a nice touch

Maybe this was good 60 years ago, but I don’t think it’s necessary to listen to anymore

Easily forgettable

Not for me

Classic sound and voice. Incredible for his time. Easy listening today

Pretty good. Would listen again. Songs seem to have held up over the years

Just not for me

I’d listen to it again, but I won’t seek it out

Easy listening at its finest right here. Didn’t give the whole extended version of the album a try, but the original is worth the listen

Fantastic front to back

Really good, I’d listen to it again

Some good jams on here, but not for me

More easy listening here. Won’t ever seek it out, but unlikely to turn it off it is comes on

Wouldn’t seek it out, but also wouldn’t change it if it came on

I just can’t see why this is on the list. Nothing stands out about it

I could easily listen to this again, easy to put on and get some work done

Nothing about this would make me want to listen to it again

This ain’t it

Not for me

Great voice, wouldn’t be upset if I heard it again, but also wouldn’t miss it if I didn’t

Nothing special about this one

Meh

Rocked from start to finish

Nothing special, but not awful

As smooth as it gets

Interesting to hear how far pop music has come. This honestly still holds up

Not for me

Incredible how different all of their albums sound. This isn’t their best, but a good intro album. Hope to see some others on this list

A couple of jams, but ultimately just sounds the same after a while

Fitting that I’m listening to this on Trumps Inauguration Day. We really are a bunch of idiots putting that clown back in office. Great album!

Wouldn’t change it, but wouldn’t seek it out

This is fantastic

Not my style

Good for its time, but I don’t think it really holds up anymore. I liked Chronic 2001 more

Not really sure why this is on here. Nothing worthwhile about it that I could find

This is what’s up. Great album!

Nothing for me to see here

Meh

Not sure why people liked Cream so much back in the day

Wouldn’t listen again, but no awful

Nah

Who chose this?

Good transitions between songs, long album, not a lot of substance

Loved it! Holds up

I’m tired of pretending that these albums are that good or influential

A lot of good jams on here. I could listen to it again

This was awesome!

Easily forgettable

I think this holds up. Takes me back to a fun time in my life

Nope

Middle of the road

What a great album, fantastic from start to finish. Great message and still relevant today.

Better than I expected it to be. Would listen again

Liked it more than I thought I would

Couple of good songs, too long of an album though

Loved it

A little too chaotic for me

Fantastic album, didn’t realize most of these songs were by him

Nothing to get too excited about

Not for me, too slow

Loved it! Easy listening and enjoyable the whole way through

I don’t think this holds up. But at least it was relatively short

Not for me

Easy listening, would put it on again, but won’t seek it out

This hits

Lot of good ones on here

Had too much of a country sound for me

Too slow for me

Could listen to this everyday

Fantastic from start to finish

Meh

Liked it, not enough to revisit though

Not their best work, hopefully that means Mr. Fantasy is on here as well

Not for me

Not for me

Great from start to finish

Writing this about an hour after finishing the album and haven’t listened to anything else since. I can say there was nothing memorable about this

Wouldn’t be mad if I never heard this again

Holds up, great album
