1001 Albums Summary

I've always like Neil Young - listening to After The Gold Rush completely just reinforces that view. I especially liked Birds (don't remember that one) and Cripple Creek Ferry. And backups from Nils Lofgren and CSN add to the overall strong album.

Not really my interest - but the stories in the lyrics are very compelling.

Solid bass and drums, dreamlike electronica and vocals, frenetic horns…. Nice intro to new band for me. Check out National Anthem, Optimistic and Idioteque tracks.

I believe Zappa was known as an innovator - but nothing about this album interested me.
