1001 Albums Summary

Masterful work by Carlos Santana. The true pinnacle of Classic Latin Rock for all time!

Smooth, mellow creativity, but sad ballads in this album, which reflects his breakup with his girlfriend. Not a particular favorite of mine, but still a good work from Beck.

The true pioneer of psychodelic rock/blues both in writing and performing. This album is the all-time classic and set the bar to which all is measured.

A country classic! Great to hear the live dialog in between songs.

Interesting long track album. Definitely deep gothic kinda techno rock. A classic of the 80's rock ballad sound as a precursor to the acid/punk rock of the 90's.

Wow, didn't know that they had some covers and interviews on the album. Still, this is a testimony of the great Isleys and the pillar of who they are. I never knew they had 11 albums at this point in their discography. Kudos to them and their accomplishments. Great classic soul of the time.

I used to own this on vinyl and played it often back then. Another all-time classic album from the era.

A great classic of the time from David Bowie.

The Who is a classic '60s rock sound, which I didn't realize what I heard often back in the day. I thought they were much harder rock, so I was surprised at this album.

I thought he sounded like Ronald Isley, but now I know who this is. A great laid-back sound of the time.

Not my cup of tea, but a decent album.

Wow! Jazz, Soul, 80's Hip Hop Rap, 90's New Jack Swing, everything wrapped into one! A master work of the time.

What a strange conglomeration of styles and genres. Just weird, crazy music. However, I found it interesting in an odd way for me. This was certainly something ahead of its time for 1969. In retrospect, I was just 6 years old and had no clue that this stuff was out there. For the great creativity and pioneering spirit I give it 4 stars!

If only 2 tracks on the entire album, it is a masterclass work by Miles Davis! Impressive work of the time. This is supposedly a fusion work but I feel like it's more jazz than anything else. I enjoyed listening to the entire record. It was flowing and relaxing while bright and dynamic all at the same time.

A great ballad album. I didn't know she had this, but she was a fine singer. I would have like more up tempo tracks.
