1001 Albums Summary

Her voice is to scratchy for me.

Nice voice, but the album is too slow and melancholic. Personally, I like something like this remix more: Leonard Cohen - You Want It Darker (Paul Kalkbrenner Remix).

Average at best. I immediately forgot this album existed.

The first album that deserves a good rating. Some decent songs that you can listen to until the end.

Some classics, and therefore not a bad album. Tip: If you have the feeling that all songs on the album have the same dynamic range and you use Spotify, turn off volume normalization. To me it sounded much better without it.

The title "Father And Son" alone makes this album worthy of 5 stars. Added to this is Yusuf's very beautiful voice.

Shallow hip hop without any extraordinary or memorable titles. The only track that saves the album from absolute average is "Doo Wop (That Thing)".

Not a bad album but I hope it's not the only thing on the list that is electronic music.

If you like the 60s sound of “Dirty Dancing”, this is the right Christmas album for you. But unfortunately not for me.

I was wondering if there were any albums in the list that I could only rate with one star, and the answer is yes. "Cool in the Pool" boys and girls.

Now I know why I hadn't heard of The Cure before the song "Lullaby". On this album the song “A Forest” is the only one that sticks in your memory.

Like the album itself, I lack inspiration to say anything praiseworthy about the album.

Nothing to say here.

A really good debut album.

Not a special album.

Normally I don't have a problem with depressive music, but this album is too depressive even for me.

I really like the album.

There are better Beatles albums.

Monotonous music where every track sounds the same.

Nothing against Johnny Cash's idea of recording a live album in prison, but it wasn't as exciting for me as it might been for the inmates.

That wasn't something I would say, I would have missed something if I hadn't heard it.

"No No No" says it all.

I miss the music.

Background music, nothing you'll remember later.

"We're Only In It For The Money" seems to be the motto of the album. It's an attempt to squeeze some money out of junk.

All in all the album is just average.

Was one Johnny Cash album in prison not enough? Or was there nothing else to fill out the list? I guess this list really needs an overhaul.

Nothing more than average rock music.

The music on the album is really good if you don't try to understand the lyrics. Some of these are very direct.

Not a bad album but I don't find it as significant as suggested here.

The album is neither fish nor fowl and certainly not something I would associate with punk rock.

A great album with lots of hits from my youth.

I like the attempt to mix samba with jazz (bossa nova). But in the end it's probably too much samba for me.

The album gets off to a great start but can't keep up the pace. Overall it's a good album.

I have no idea why this album should be so important, it just didn't convince me.

Not melodic repetitive screaming, which is sold here as music worth listening to.

There's one song you can hear, the rest is the usual screaming. It's a little more listenable than Mudhoney, hence 2 stars.

A really good album. As someone else has written, it reminds you that little has changed in politics since the 70s. It's a shame that you can only hear it on YouTube.

I recommend this album if you have trouble sleeping. The monotonous music and singing make you fall asleep after 5 minutes.

A good jazz album, but nothing more. It is suitable for relaxing listening after a stressful day.

Electronic music that plays calmly in the background.

The music ripples along. If you're looking for something to relax, this is the right album.

If you put aside the mistakes 2Pac made in his personal life as a gangster rapper. Then the album itself isn't bad.

Just one word: Trash

The music is just as unmotivated as the singing.

You don't know what is more horrible, the singing or the music.

Once you get used to her voice, this is a good album.

A really good album. With the surprise that "Just the Way You Are" was written by him.

After listening to it several times, this is a good album.

Disappointing

This is definitely an album for people who like metal, but not for me.

Looks like I hate punk.

Just not my music.

After the second listen I realized that the album isn't as bad as I first thought. But it doesn't go beyond a 3 star.

A good album to listen to while doing other things.

A classic for blues fans.

You can simply skip this punk album, it sounds like this: Someone is screaming into the microphone accompanied by poorly played electric guitar and the lyrics are completely irrelevant because you can't understand them anyway.

An album that glides along inconsequential.

Good 80s pop music. I like it.

If you like salsa, this album is for you.

Good soul music, but not too exciting in the end.

On the album the song "Tiny Dancer" is good but the rest is just average.

An experimental album with unfortunately not enough memorable songs.

The album itself ripples along, the only song that stands out is "I Shall Be Released" by Bob Dylan.

I'm not impressed.

The fact that there is even music and if you try hard you can understand the lyrics makes the album a less unpleasant punk album.

The album also contains some listenable songs but in the end it is just average.

Good rock album. “Kashmir” is a great song.

I can't think of anything to say about the mass of average albums on this list.

Like all the other albums, nothing that stands out from the crowd.

Another meaningless rock album.

The song “The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down” is the best on the album, but even for that song the covers of it are better than the original.

It's electronic music but with emotionless singing, which is why the instrumental songs sound best.

I think their debut album had a better sound.

"Reign in Blood is the third studio album by American thrash metal band Slayer." Thrash metal band, need I say more?

Not a really interesting album.

When I think of New Order I always think of “Blue Monday,” but you wouldn’t think that album was from the same group. A disappointment.

Interesting mix of rock and country but nothing that particularly stands out.

Rush lives from the unmistakable voice of Geddy Lee. If you're not put off by that then this is a good album.

80s pop without pizzazz.

Nothing more than average.

Well done 80s pop.

If you like OMD then this is the album, but the sound doesn't move me.

A good album on second listen.

You shouldn't spend more than 2 minutes with Blur. The song “Song 2” is good, but the rest is average.

For blues lovers or hardcore Eric Clapton fans.

I almost fell asleep.

It was a change, but nothing more.

Just forget it quickly.

For people who like it when someone screams in their ear.

I can't do anything with the 90s, now I know why again.

The start was good but then things dropped significantly.

Another unspectacular album.

It has some good songs.

Slightly better than average.

Nothing the world has been waiting for.

A very varied album with strong contrasts between "Paint It Black" and "Lady Jane". But I like it.

Not bad but not good enough for 4 stars.

Typical hip hop.

A really good piece of rock music.

Probably not their most important album, but one of the most well-known.

If you want to change something in the world you should start with yourself.

At the time I hated the song “Clint Eastwood,” it was playing everywhere. The song hasn't gotten any better and the rest of the album isn't any better either.

Roxy Music also has good tracks, unfortunately not on this album.

It's country again.

I struggled with myself for a long time but I give the album 4 stars because of the song "The Healer".

It's like the other Björk album on my list, only with even lesser known songs but with the same terrible voice.

Not a bad album if you don't find the singer's voice unpleasant.

The album for Bob Marley fans.

It's a blues album but nothing special.

He got rich, most of us die trying.

There's "Riders on the Storm" but that's it, the rest really isn't memorable.

Let's say it's a good 3 stars

Boring

I'm tired of more punk.

A really worth listening album.

A classic of electronic music.

It's an average album, nothing too exciting.

A few songs that you recognize but overall not an exceptional album.

Whoever likes it.

Not really convincing.

Calm background music.

A good singer songwriter album.

Surprisingly, the songs sound better when he doesn't sing them himself.

The album is too melancholic.

Not R.E.M.'s greatest hits.

It glides along without becoming noticeable.

The album that no one was waiting for.

The album has some good beginnings but overall it doesn't overwhelm me.

Another classic of electronic music.

Underestimated.

For people who like Arabic music.

A good electronic album.

There are definitely David Bowie albums worth listening to, but this wasn't one of them.

The usual useless screaming.

I like the music and the vocals a really good album.

Unobtrusive jazz album that is easy to listen to.

At the beginning the combination of Indian music with rock music is still interesting, but in the long run it becomes quite tiring.

One of Jethro Tull's classics.

Crosby, Stills & Nash with some well-known songs.

Completely overrated.

If you ignore the beginning, the album got better in the latter part.wwww

Average jazz album, nothing special.

The album didn't blow me away.

It has a bit of an Indian touch but it's not for me.

I'll be merciful, the album has one good song.

Some good songs but overall the album doesn't completely convince me.

Once you've listened to this list for a while, you'll welcome any album that you can listen to without damaging your hearing. I think this album is unfairly rated so low. Anita Baker has a very beautiful voice and the songs are well composed and arranged.

I don't know where the hype comes from around some groups, but here it's really over the top, the whole album is nothing more than average.

The album babbles along, it's not bad, but if you don't own it, there's nothing missing from your record cabinet.

I don't remember anything about the album as being worth listening to.

The whole Björk albums are just tiring.

How does someone come up with music like that? And instead of hiding the fact that listening to this crap was a waste of time, it ends up on the list of "1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die" so that others will also waste their time listening to this.

Not the best but a really good album from Prince.

Nothing surprising just the usual Punk rubbish.

So the Rock Reggae Mix didn't convince me.

There really are still albums worth listening to before you die, unfortunately there are too few on this list. But this is definitely one of them.

That was nothing next please.

Another album you can easily skip.

It's a shame that the album is still current, because the criticism in it is still justified.

The album is hard to sum up. There is the song "Heroes" which is a very good song, then there are a few average songs and then there is an instrumental part which is not too bad. Overall I would say it is a good album.

A little better than the other punk albums but ultimately no more than average.

A colorful mix with some interesting influences but ultimately not one of my favorite albums.

That was nothing.

An album that you can comfortably play in the background.

An album that was released at least 20 years too late. At the end of the 60s it would have been something but for the end of the 80s it sounds a bit tiring.

There are two striking tracks on the album, the rest sounds like one never-ending track.

Another experimental album by David Bowie where you can't decide if it's good or not.

It seems as if the noises were supposed to represent the music.

"I tried so hard and got so far But in the end, it doesn't even matter..."

One of his best albums.

The album wasn't a big hit.

The album was hard to find but ultimately just average.

A little strange with the text part in the middle but overall good.

Boring and monotonous.

The album didn't contain their biggest songs.

Only for Rock And Roll fans.

For me nothing more than a 3.

Which takes most of the time to think up a commentary for another average album.

I always associate R.E.M. with 'Losing My Religion' but no song on this album comes anywhere close to that song.

In my opinion there are better U2 albums. 'One' is not a bad song but the rest is not memorable.

The last part of the album saves it to a 3.

With David Bowie you should buy a best of album and ignore the others. There is always a good song but that doesn't make up for the rest of the album.

A very experimental album, it's enough to listen to it once.

Better than I expected.

The music makes your feet fall asleep.

Rock and roll is just not my style of music.

I don't know what's so worth listening to about Leonard Cohen's albums.

Nothing more than a 3

Although the album was labeled as hip hop, it was surprisingly listenable.

Sometimes it's better if you don't automatically understand the lyrics because it's not your native language. Then you can listen to the music and the singing without asking yourself why the lyrics have this content.

Surprisingly good.

Unobtrusive background music.

Despite some good approaches, someone has not done all their homework.

A really good album.

Unobtrusive coffee house jazz can be very relaxing.

For anyone who likes punk, this is definitely another classic. For anyone who thinks punk is a waste of time, the bad news is that this album is no exception.

Should the cover distract from the music? If so, it didn't work.

Sounds like a test CD from a HiFi magazine for calibrating your system.

A bit too much world music for me.

Utterly exhausting.

Not as good as the other Miles Davis albums.

There were a few songs worth listening to but overall not enough for 4 stars.

An indie album that is really good to listen to.

I had to struggle through the album, but since I've heard worse albums on this list, I'm still giving it 3 stars.

Not as much screaming as on other punk albums so it still deserves 3 stars.

Almost too snappy music for a blues album.

The song 'Child in Time' alone makes the album a classic.

The ex-champions of hip-hop with their album I really didn't get that impressed.

The album sounds at times like the background music of an old Star Trek TOS episode.

The voices are so monotonous that it is the right music for people who have trouble falling asleep.

An average live recording.

I listened to the album but it didn't really move me.

After listening to it a second time, I reconsidered my decision and have to say that the album is actually a good experimental album.

I don't think this is Orbital's most important album.

A good rock album that I have never heard before.

A good rock album with an interesting history.

Where are the woke people when you need them? Instead of trying to rewrite Agatha Christie books, they should focus on this album. Irony off.

The only listenable Grunge album.

A few good songs but a lot of average ones.

Fans of the series “Monk” will have a flashback, because every song reminds you of it. But after a while it becomes quite monotonous, just like the singer's voice.

Just too boring. For people with sleeping problems.

You have to like the music and the singing to not automatically fall asleep.

Yes, it's Hip Hop and yes there are samples, but it didn't convince me.

A good album to listen to in a quiet moment.

An album that just trundles along without any real high points.

"Who Killed...... The Zutons?" Probably themselves after they finished the album.

Some catchy songs, hence a good album.

Classic 80's music with electronic elements.

There is nothing on the album that stays in your memory.

With the monotonous singing and music, it's hard not to fall asleep.

Not a bad album.

This album is just plain tiring.

That wasn't for me.

With this album, John Lennon does not manage to build on his success with the Beatles.

I just can't get excited about Elvis Costello.

The right album for people with sleeping problems.

Because of the bongo theme, the variety is very limited.

An unusual album with a good song. (Me Myself and I)

An album that doesn't have a single outstanding song on it - if you compare it to later albums, you wouldn't even notice that it's the Bee Gees. The only exception is the song "Lamplight".

To me, the album sounds like an overly long version of "Wild Horses" by the Rolling Stones.

The album was a real surprise for me, despite the dark mood I found it varied.

A good album with some familiar songs.

Surprisingly good album.

Imagine if the rest of the album was like the first song. Then it would be a good album, but as it is, it's just average.

Just boring.

All in all a bit tiring.

Relaxation music.

Insignificant album.

For people who like African folk music. The whole album can get a bit tiring.

There are some melodies and even some vocals but nothing I would listen to again.

The only known song is 'Black Hole Sun', without it they would still be 'Superunkown'.

Not terrible, but not really convincing either. It has some good songs.

If you get used to the voice, the album itself is not bad.

It wasn't what I expected based on the cover. It's actually an album you can listen to.
