1001 Albums Summary

Seven Nation Army is the best song on the album

One of my top 10 favorite albums ever

Not my style of music, but not bad. I wouldn't have listened to it without this project though.

Not a fan of Alice in Chains, still not a bad album.

Not a bad album. I like Blondie but have never heard more than the hits.

Love Elvis. In my top 10 for sure and with a few of his great songs, I like this album.

Whiney voice and really not my style at all. Gets weird at points

I like more than I thought I would. I also knew more songs than I thought I would. Overall good album. Glad I listened to it.

And now I know why I am not a big fan of Neil Young.

Meh. Average at best. Don' know why this is on this list. If I had never heard it, I would still feel completed in my music repertoire.

Good, but not really good. Even their cover of Satisfaction wasn't really satisfying. Definitely an acquired taste.

How did this make the list? I am not a fan. I am sure someone out there likes this band, but not me.

Jazz isn't normally my thing, but this is really good and glad I got a chance to enjoy it which I wouldn't have done without this coming up on the list.

Good album. More bluesy sounding than I expected. Symphony for the Devil is a classic and love hearing that song.

Not a fan

She isn't a bad singer, but also not a special voice.

I listened to it. It was okay

Not too bad. I like it.

Damn I love Gorillaz and this album is a major reason why. All the songs are great not just Clint Eastwood.

I like the album. I just can't help but think about the Family Guy episode where Peter and Quagmire made a folk music duo. Simon and Garfunkel are definitely legends and awesome together.

Great album. Of course, I like the two big hits from this album, but the rest of the songs are awesome as well.

Hmm, didn't know what to expect, but not bad.

Yep, that is an album. Guess it just isn't my taste.

Absolutely love the Beatles. This is beyond a doubt an amazing album and the first one to get 5 stars before I even listened to it.

Liked it and knew some songs from it.

Not a bad album. I wouldn't have heard it without this site and honestly that wouldn't have bothered me.

Like Dire Straits and this album is a good one.

More please and thank you

Awesome

I liked it.

It's Rod Stewart of course it will be good and it was.

Good album. Only 7 songs show the limitations of the time when this was released. Never heard of the band, but Tinsel Town in the Rain had a ton of listens and I do agree it is worth listening to at least once.

Impressive album. I really liked it. Music really is universal. Even with the language barrier I seriously enjoyed this album.

Its Kayne. He is super talented and the album is great. However, I wouldn't have listened to it had I not been doing this project.

Not a fan of Bob Dylan, but the album wasn't as bad as I was anticipating.

Knew a song from this album. Decent enough to listen to once.

Great Album. Love Black Sabbath.

Umm okay

Pretty good. Really jazzy

Definitely funky. I like it. The use of random fart noises and other unusual sounds makes me reconsider my thought that anything can be used to create music.

Meh

Really? I never had to listen to this and I would have been infinitely happier.

Yep, they put out an album and I have unfortunately listened to it.

Very cool

Sounds like the kind of music Toby Maguire's Peter Parker would dance to in Spider-Man 3. Nothing to get that excited about.

Love Stevie Wonder!! Great album and definitely deserving to be on this list!!

Meh

Not Bad

I appreciate he is a legend, but this just does nothing for me. I couldn't wait for the album to end. Sorry, but not even going to pretend that I thought this was a good album.

Good album. Surprised I liked as much as I did.

Not bad.

Not bad. Never heard of them before. Won't actively look to listen to them, but not bad.

Its okay

I like them. A little bit of a Beatles vibe.

5 stars and haven't even listened to it yet. But I will because I absolutely love the Foo Fighters.

Song 2 is the best song on the album otherwise, this isn't that great a album.

She has a classic, beautiful voice and a pleasure to listen to. Very nice album.

Rock Lobster is a very interesting song and I am here for it. Overall a very enjoyable album and definitely a prime example of The B-52's music style. 4 stars for sure.

Very classic sound. I liked it.

What a talent and a legend!! This is just a great album!! I should definitely listen to more blues.

Nice!!!

Very NICE!!!

Okay. I liked some of the songs on this album. Has a fairly modern sound despite being from 1996. This is a random album that I have really liked.

meh

Absolutely a legend, but just not my genre of music.

This album is hit after hit and absolutely amazing. Led Zepplin is easily one of the best bands ever. 5 stars and if there was an option to give more I would.

It's John Lennon. Good record. Liked him better with the Beatles though.

Really like this album

Lots of just repeated lyrics. Not really for me. Thanks though.

5 stars!!!! LOVE Linkin Park!!! One of the best bands ever!!!

It was okay

5 stars!! Meat Loaf was a powerful singer and I really enjoy his music.

Okay thank you for the suggestion, but it just wasn't for me. Can only give it 2 stars.

Short and sweet, but totally wasted on me. Interesting music though.

I used to absolutely love Nirvana, but the pure amount of over exposure of this band has changed how I feel about them.

Love Tom Petty. Just a great talent and a group that I have come to really like. Sad that he passed away. 5 stars because it's a great album.

Ugh, this album is depressing and really whiney. Big nope for me. Somehow, I suffered through the entire album. This is the thing I feared the most doing this project: an album that is horrible and only added to the list because they need 1001 of them. Makes me wonder if the curator of the list is some how related to this performer and included her out of pity. Man, I really dislike this album. Wish I could give negative stars.

VAN HALEN!!! 5 STARS!!! NO DOUBT!!!!

I really like Arcade Fire. This is a good album and worth 4 stars.

Amazing album from start to finish. Yeah, I think 5 stars is an appropriate rating.

Not normally a fan of live albums, but this one is pretty good. I liked it. 4 stars

It's okay. I like R.E.M. enough to appreciate them.

Ugh, more whiney singing. Guess it is not in my wheelhouse. Sorry not sorry for not liking this album. 1 star maybe 2 stars if I am feeling generous tomorrow.

Just an awesome voice. Amazing album.

Great album. Forgot that it is technically two albums released as one.

Decent enough album. Not one I would have sought out, but still one I did enjoy enough.

Definitely can tell it is from 80s, which isn't a bad thing at all. Overall I liked it enough to give it 3 stars

Like David Bowie. Good album. 3 stars

Very nice. 4 stars

It's the Beatles. 5 stars

Never heard them before, but I liked it a lot.

5 stars. Legendary artist

Linda is the definite weak point on this album. Richard isn't much better. Overall, I don't like this album. 1 star

5 stars. Absolutely a legendary album and might be one of the best ever.

I like Janis Joplin. Had no idea this was her album.

Pink Floyd - 5 stars. Nuff said

Ugh, 2 stars

Good album.

Didn't get to hear it all, but what I did hear was okay.

Has a hard time staying awake at work while listening to this album. I guess I can see why he is considered a must listen to artist. However, not really for me.

5 Stars. Absolutely awesome. Miss Lemmy.

They play music and have a decent sound. Three stars

Not as horrible as I thought it would be. Three stars

They seriously just took some instruments and made random noise with them and then said a bunch of gibberish and nonsense then recorded it and called it music. Then someone said this album is good enough to be listened to and published it. Even worse, it was put on this list. 1 star and if I could give less I would.

5 STARS!!!!!! One of the greatest albums ever recorded!!

I will give it 2 stars because she wasn't overwhelmingly whiney on the majority of her songs.

I get it, they were psychedelic rock but just not that good (IMO). I'll give them a generous 2-star rating.

3 stars because it's David Bowie

3 stars

5 STARS!!!

Not bad - 3 stars

Hmm different in a semi good way - 3 stars

3 stars I guess

I am not a fan of Amy Winehouse. This is the first and so far only album I haven't listened to so far. It won't be the last if I come across a Cranberries or another Winehouse album (which I am certain will most likely happen.)

Not what I was expecting. Two stars

1 star nope. Just a bunch of random noise and shit.

3 stars

5 stars!! Great album!! My Mom would play this just about once a month when I was growing up. Haven't heard it for about 35 years and still remembered it.

I feel like I am listening to a cartoon character singing jazz. Almost sounds like Bigweld from Robots (I know that's Mel Brooks but still). 1 star

What is this album?? It is not that good. Like thank goodness it is a short album and over quickly. 1 star

59 songs on this album - supposed to be 3 hours and 15 minutes long. It has taken me almost 8 hours to listen to it. Despite that, Ella Fitzgerald has a wonder voice, I really enjoyed it. 4 stars

5 stars!!! One of my all-time favorite songs is on this album. Walk This Way with Aerosmith.

1 star. At some point I kept wondering if I was listening to a Bob Dylan cover band and not being a Dylan fan makes that hard for me.

5 stars did you even need to ask??

3 stars. Not something I would listen to again but, while not the greatest vocals, lyrics, or choice of material to write about, I do appreciate the attempt to make this album. At least they are capable musicians. It would have been very difficult to listen to this album if they weren't.

2 stars. Would have been a 1 star if not for a few songs but still that's a no from me dawg!! The Lyre of Orpheus is possibly the weirdest song lyrically I think I have ever heard.

5 stars one of the best albums

2 stars but I just don't like Bob Dylan never have and never will. The 2 stars is because I am feeling generous today. Otherwise, his stuff is just 1 star for me. Had anyone else said, "The Sun isn't yellow, it's chicken" they would be viewed as stupid, but Dylan says it and people call him a lyrical genius. He sounds like he just wrote a short story and then sang it. Just not for me.

2 stars. Depressing album

3 stars. Some interesting lyrics.

What did I just listen to and why didn't I stop? 1 star and truly deserves less than that if possible. Only three reasons for this album to on this list, 1. The author of this list was a member of the band, 2. The author of this list had a family member in the band, 3. The author needed song 1,001 and choose this one for only a reason they know. SMH.

3 stars not the Genesis music I was expecting but still good.

5 stars

3 stars

Was this album released this way on purpose or did they accidentally record it this way and PJ Harvey said release it? Either way, horrible!!! 1 star.

3 stars

I just don't like this album. I know it is going to be controversial but, I have my reasons. Sorry TLC but, you get a 1.

SO DEPRESSING AND EVERY SONG SOUNDS THE SAME!!! -10 STARS (if only)

Yep, nothing that great on this album. It gets 2 stars for at least being a somewhat decent album. Wouldn't listen to it again though.

3 stars

3 stars

Every album is just sad and depressing. Raidohead is not my type of music evidently as I have not like any of their albums yet. 1 star

Wow!! This album and band are why I started this project. Never heard of them but absolutely love the album. 5 Stars

4 stars. Typically, not a fan of live albums but, this one isn't too bad. I find the crowd is often louder than the music but not here. I know the big hits for them but, the other songs on this album are pretty good.

4 stars. Never heard of this band but, really good

4 stars. Like the sound and songs. Good band. Never heard of them before, so happy to discover them.

5 stars. Really liked this album. Great band.

5 stars. Great album

No, I won't listen to another Tom Waits album. Does the guy who made this list really believe every album Tom Waits ever put out is so superior to other albums or did he just need to fill 1001 of them and this is the person he chose as filler.

This is one of my favorite albums period. 5 Stars - great writing/storytelling and remarkably performed. My Step Father-In-Law introduced me to Marty Robbins and for that I am thankful to him for doing so.,

I think I missed the reason why this album is on this list. 1 star
