Great. Start to Finish!

Brings back memories...oh 1993!

Trio by Dolly Parton

Lots of respect for all three of these ladies, but I can't really get into this album.

Blur by Blur
Jan 18 2024

Reminds me of High School

Risque by CHIC
Jan 19 2024

Good listening music in the background.

A good, solid album!

New Boots And Panties by Ian Dury
Jan 21 2024

Not familiar with this artist, but I was surprising entertained!

Hearts And Bones by Paul Simon
Jan 22 2024

Really enjoyed this! I have always enjoyed his music...so calming and soothing.

Aqualung by Jethro Tull
Jan 24 2024

Not bad, would listen again.

Tical by Method Man
Jan 29 2024

A hard pass

At San Quentin by Johnny Cash
Jan 30 2024

I usually prefer live albums, and I understand that this is from 1969, but not a fan of the quality of the recording. I know most of these songs and like the songs.

Apocalypse Dudes by Turbonegro
Feb 05 2024

Maybe back in 98 when this album came out, the 17 year old me would of liked this, but not really a fan. A few tracks remind me of The Offspring....which I listened to alot in the mid-90s.

Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd
Feb 06 2024

I am sure this in an unpopular opinion, but I was never a big Pink Floyd fan.

Catch A Fire by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Feb 13 2024

Reggae on a cold winter's day

Nixon by Lambchop
Feb 14 2024

Not sure how this made this list...very mundane and wouldn't listen again.

Elephant Mountain by The Youngbloods
Feb 15 2024

It was worth a listen, but probably not again.

Pearl by Janis Joplin
Feb 16 2024
Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
Feb 17 2024
1989 by Taylor Swift
Feb 18 2024

I was surprised by this album...in a good way.

Juju by Siouxsie And The Banshees
Feb 19 2024

I enjoyed, but probably wouldn't listen again.

Bossanova by Pixies
Feb 20 2024

Not very impressed, nothing stands out to me on this album. I give it a low 2.

Superunknown by Soundgarden
Feb 22 2024

Another great album from my high school days! I haven't listened to Soundgarden in quite some time.

Dare! by The Human League
Feb 23 2024

I kinda enjoyed it more that I thought I would. This genre is one that gets old after a while for me, but it was a decent album. Who doesn't know that last track?

Bad by Michael Jackson
Feb 24 2024

Not a fan of MJ, but this album is really good.

Let Love Rule by Lenny Kravitz
Feb 25 2024

Wouldn't listen again

What's Going On by Marvin Gaye
Feb 27 2024

Not my jam, but would listen again. Easy listening music.

Teenager Of The Year by Frank Black
Mar 04 2024

Never heard of Frank Black and it was a toss up between 1 or 2 stars....gave it 2 stars just for the beat in a few songs.

All Mod Cons by The Jam
Mar 06 2024

I seem to be on a roll with 2 stars, so let's continue this.

21 by Adele
Mar 07 2024

Not usually my style of music, but Adele is very special

Freak Out! by The Mothers Of Invention
Mar 08 2024

I am not understanding this list, not worth listening to more than a song.

Hot Fuss by The Killers
Mar 12 2024

Great Album and fun band to see live!

Quiet Life by Japan
Mar 13 2024

Nothing of note, but it was not bad listening.

Ten by Pearl Jam
Mar 14 2024

Great Album, very close to 5 stars.

Shleep by Robert Wyatt
Mar 17 2024

no, just no

Live At Leeds by The Who
Mar 18 2024

I enjoy live albums, but I am surprised that they are included on top 1000 list. Almost all of these songs are from a studio album. Overall, a solid live album.

Blue Lines by Massive Attack
Mar 20 2024

Never again

Real Life by Magazine
Mar 21 2024

More Punk than Rock

Calenture by The Triffids
Mar 22 2024

Definitely a 80's album, not bad and would listen again. I have never heard of this band.

Kind Of Blue by Miles Davis
Mar 23 2024

Good background music!

Dummy by Portishead
Mar 26 2024

A big no thanks!

You Want It Darker by Leonard Cohen
Mar 27 2024

I would of gave it more stars if it was one of his early ablums.

In Rainbows by Radiohead
Mar 29 2024

Prefer their earlier albums, but not bad.

KIWANUKA by Michael Kiwanuka
Mar 30 2024

Viva Hate by Morrissey
Apr 04 2024

Didn't mind most songs, very monotonous.

Immigrés by Youssou N'Dour
Apr 05 2024

Not my preference

Eliminator by ZZ Top
Apr 06 2024

A very solid album.

Nick Of Time by Bonnie Raitt
Apr 08 2024

I seem to be landing on a lot of 3 stars lately and Bonnie Raitt will continue that trend.

Elephant by The White Stripes
Apr 09 2024

A lot of listens in the early 2000s when this came out.

Thriller by Michael Jackson
Apr 10 2024

I think almost every American has heard of half these songs. Very solid album. I always loved Billie Jean...no matter how many times it comes on the radio.

Cross by Justice
Apr 12 2024

Oh great, another Electronic album. no thanks

Crosby, Stills & Nash by Crosby, Stills & Nash
Apr 14 2024

Apr 15 2024

Not a fan of his voice.

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Apr 20 2024

Lovely Album, just great listening!

In A Silent Way by Miles Davis
Apr 21 2024

Interesting, very easy listening.

Apr 22 2024

Reminds me soo much of my High School Football days. This type of music was always on in the weight room. Glad my music tastes have done a complete 180.

Odelay by Beck
Apr 23 2024

hmmm, I'll go with 2 stars just based on the two songs that I was familiar with, but not a huge fan.

Sea Change by Beck
Apr 24 2024

Prefer this one to Odelay, 3 stars

Arc Of A Diver by Steve Winwood
Apr 25 2024

Not bad, Average, middle of the road - 3 stars

Debut by Björk
Apr 27 2024

Not a fan, but could listen to most of the tracks.

Hot Buttered Soul by Isaac Hayes
Apr 29 2024

Not my taste, but it was very easy listening.

At Mister Kelly's by Sarah Vaughan
Apr 30 2024

Another genre that isn't up my alley, but like other Jazz albums, easy to listen to. I guess I will keep the 2 stars streak going.

Scott 4 by Scott Walker
May 02 2024
Shaft by Isaac Hayes
May 05 2024

A Soundtrack? I guess it is all performed by the same artist, Isaac Hayes. Good background music, I guess

The Clash by The Clash
May 06 2024

Never was a big fan of The Clash, but I understand the interest, 2 stars

Buena Vista Social Club by Buena Vista Social Club
May 07 2024

Very easy listening...even though I am not fluent in spanish!

The Message by Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five
May 08 2024

As I look back at all the past albums, I see that I usually choose 2 stars, I will continue my trend.

The United States Of America by The United States Of America
May 09 2024

Perhaps if I was "medicated" with some of the special medicine from the 60s.

Van Halen by Van Halen
May 10 2024

A really good album, especially for a band's first album!

Connected by Stereo MC's
May 12 2024

Enjoyed a few of the tracks, so 2 stars

May 16 2024
