1001 Albums Summary

I never really *got* the Beach Boys, but catchy, and a bit dissonant. Even though it sounds happy, there's a lot of heaviness underneath. Feels like living in LA. I heard it referred to as "church" pop. And I read arguments that it's a concept album, which I think I agree with.

7-11, Jell-O, Steve McQueen I think I just missed the boat on this. It sounds immature and one-note, there isn't a lot of variability, they hit one rhythm, one sound, and then never let up. Like that joke where a man thinks he's found an erogenous zone, so he just rubs the same spot awkwardly and consistently. Sabotage is hands down the best song, but Madness just sucks or whatever it was made us laugh.

A little same-y, but great for the morning and a drive.

Cool. Of course.

So cool. Best one so far.

Unexpectedly great

Too high ! Too high !

Meh, tired of white boy rock
