1001 Albums Summary

The culmination of "old Green Day" (sneering punks with a bone to pick) as well as the starting point for "new Green Day" (arena rockers who want to say big things). Great record that suffered a bit from overexposure but still holds up.

The first song: no thanks. From there it's a climb in quality and enjoyment with bright spots along the way.

I'm not a jazz lover and was hesitant to give this a listen. But I really enjoyed it.
