1001 Albums Summary

Great album this is the first recommendation of the album generator and it was something I was already very familiar with, but it is an album, my love that I think it is in fact outstanding.

Sounds OK but sounds like a bunch of amateurs. Hard for me to get into.

I admit to having owned this album already for many years, though I think my version had the toilet censored with the graphic box listing the songs within. Overall a great selection of strong melodies.

The band is amazing but some of Freddy’s moments sound very arch now. He obviously was very creative and very talented, but the little show tune segments of his now sound of dated. The band still sounds terrific, powerful and tight other than the classic song featured. The rest of the album really does not hold up as far as songwriting goes.

I think it’s probably good and I used to like it more but now to me it sounds like Tom Jones. I know that Elvis is much better, but it just doesn’t hit me.

It’s OK it was a very popular realm and sultans of swing is a great song but the album sounds like too much of the same thing. Very little color instrumentally two drums format with no harmonies or other instruments. It’s tedious after a while.

I love this album. It was groundbreaking at the time But still sounds great and actually still a little bit otherworldly. Hancock’s jazz chops definitely come in to play, but the sound is dark and very funky, which was new at the time. Well, the music can sound very spicy. It doesn’t drift into the stratosphere like Mahavishnu or weather report. The base drums and percussion are present in an intoxicating mix. Highly recommended.

I like it OK. Not as good as his Apple debut album in my opinion and not as good as his later stuff like JT Great, understate of production and playing, but just not a lot of melodies that grab me.

A breakthrough album for Bowie. Rarely strong melodically, He was always so willing to try new things not afraid to challenge his audience, such as Low. Stronger conceptually, visually than musically.

Very good for what it is. A respected guitar oriented punk band, and it’s legit stuff, I just don’t hear the melodies or the color in the music to encourage repeated listening for me…

Perhaps the Stones’ best album? I literally don’t hear a bad cut on it and the opener brown sugar is as strong opening as they ever had and for the Stones, that’s really saying something—highly highly recommended.

I’m still trying to figure this album out! It sounds very unique to his credit and reminding me a little bit of Jim Morrison back by the Monkees with their production team. Also hear elements of Kevin Rowland Scott Walker mixed in with perhaps a little more of the Bowie archness that I would like. Having said that clearly the guy is trying to do something different, which is extremely valuable these days because no one else is bottom line still listening and investigating, but I’d recommend you listen to it too! 👍🏾

Not a Billy Bragg fan unfortunately. I like great vocalist and melody, and he brings neither to the table.

Very good album—-Creedence at their peak.

Great album with amazing engineering.

Never heard of the band or the artist, and there was no link to listen to it

Well, I initially loved a lot of LilyWhite’s production, some of it has not aged well. More importantly, though it’s clear listening to this album the Bono can’t write a melody for the life of him, and his voice is not much to speak of either. I think his main skill is his desire to try to be seen as a pop culture figurehead but I think that’s only in his mind. Drum is just OK and pretty much all the same.

Love it! I’ve never heard it before, but I really liked it. Would recommend if you like ambient music.

What can I say that hasn’t already been said? Certainly one of the top 10 best rock/pop albums ever and in my top three for sure. Hopefully the Album can be a gateway to new listeners to discover other great gems in the Beach Boys catalog.

Hi, I'm sorry but I just cannot get into Elliott Smith. I've heard a lot of people tell me he's very good and I'm very sorry to hear about his personal issues and his tragic passing but his music always seems so down to me that was hard for me to get into it. I listen to a couple of songs, but I'm sad to say that I just found the music very depressing even though he may be a very talented artist. R.I.P.

Great album. In my opinion, Yes's peak. They're actually five solo songs one for each member interspersed with a group songs, but the group songs are stunning, most notably perhaps their greatest song Roundabout. Each of the five members is at the top of their game.Highly recommended.

OK, I guess. A lot of ethereal women's voices almost baroque over a bunch of echoes synthesizer a bunch of memorable melodies but I guess it's OK.

It sounds like period Electronic synthesize pop from the 80s. Some of it probably influence current artists but it all sounds very computerized to me not a lot of great songwriting singing or playing that my cup of tea.
