Jan 08 2024

Killer beats Love the concept throughout of Wu sampling, with wu-tang swords slicing through torture skit a great aggressive intro to each member. I'll sew up your asshole and then just feed you, and feed you, and feed you Method Man focus song kills it, great rythym w the voice. got myself a shorty and i, got myself a 40 Unique voices

Rust Never Sleeps by Neil Young & Crazy Horse
Jan 09 2024

Will this be the only one of the 1001 albums not on spotify? Iconic voice I don't zone in to the singer/songwriters enough, they can hit but take focus out of the blue and into the black Slow; nice occasionally, would be tough for modern audience

Highway 61 Revisited by Bob Dylan
Jan 10 2024

He rocks, harder than I remember. Singer songwriter vibe great for the rainy day, I really need to slow down and listen to lyrics to appreciate. Every verse has some lyrical gems. Rolling Stone is an all-time hit for a reason. Such distinctive voice.

Tea for the Tillerman by Cat Stevens
Jan 11 2024

gem lines that seem simple but hit hard There’s so much left to know, and I’m on the road to find out

Court And Spark by Joni Mitchell
Jan 12 2024

beautiful. voice annoyed me at first, like "there's got to be a morning after" high pitch South Park, but grew on me. Lyrics poetic, lovely storytelling. Theme of internal conflict between freedom (man in paris) and looking for love/connection. The confidence in her sexiness exudes. Twisted final track "my analyst told me"- therapist must listen We love our lovin' But not like we love our freedom

Jagged Little Pill by Alanis Morissette
Jan 15 2024

Another iconic voice, but this one feels jagged to me. Inspired by Joni Mitchell?, and sometimes it’s catchy, but overall I find it shrill. Hand in my pocket is still a hit, makes you wonder what your other hand would be doing? And that’s different in any given moment; the same hand will throw a middle finger and a peace sign and a high five and just be smoking that cigarette.

Led Zeppelin by Led Zeppelin
Jan 16 2024

Blues rock, bangers. Mix of lovely soft, with some straight in your face rock. The heart of the zeppelin iconic sounds.

Jan 17 2024

Rah, shows the potential. Just kids playing around, finding their sound and someways more goofy but also more straightforward than later queen albums. Killer queen still smashes, Freddy’s vocals are starting to peek out, but he hasn’t really found his full voice, and the mix keeps things more balanced/guitar rock focused than later queen, which is more Freddy focused, and then listen to the next album which has somebody to love which still gives me tingles, and then General is getting a bit more opera-ish already. You see the potential here.

Protection by Massive Attack
Jan 18 2024

Heavy sound but softer than I thought. My favorite parts are w dub reggae vibes (spying glass). Heat miser closer encapsulates the sound.

Kings Of The Wild Frontier by Adam & The Ants
Jan 19 2024

Interesting vocal mixes. Some fun bouncy rock tracks, very British in the tone and lyrics. Jolly Rodger lil pirate vibe, boding heavy guitar tone. This band would be fun live. Never heard of them.

Jan 22 2024

Nice tunes, but don’t get the hype as one of the greatest. From the movie knowing his process of getting lyrics from his partner and then putting music to it, cool to think of these as coming out of that process. I like song without a name

Ten by Pearl Jam
Jan 23 2024

It’s a vibe, listened on a rainy day drive, but blends together and sounds like one big song, got boring. I did a grunge workout playlist the prior day, that I enjoyed more than this particular experience. Closing song Release stood out

Figure 8 by Elliott Smith
Jan 24 2024

It’s a vibe, very soft for me but beautiful tunes, feels longing. Gets a bit boring/repetitive. Some nice vocal mixes. Lucked out matching the rainy day vibes. Long way to go, and getting further away Why should you want any other When you’re a world within a world?

Jan 25 2024

Gangster, rap, hot beats, Dray works magic and 50 has dynamic voice and flow. One of my favorite of this era of rap, we’re track still had a van sounds but not many changes in a given song. In da club still a banger. Hard to objectively judge any of my high school era albums that I had on rotation, but I’m still digging this..

Machine Head by Deep Purple
Jan 26 2024

Rythym guitar rock, nice and upbeat and I rolled with it but didn’t do anything special for me.

The Wildest! by Louis Prima
Jan 29 2024

Great Voice, first track I’m so lonely was a banger, just a good swing and jazzy vibe

Crosby, Stills & Nash by Crosby, Stills & Nash
Jan 30 2024

Lovely. Vocal harmonies are epic. Many more hits that I knew than I expected.

Shleep by Robert Wyatt
Jan 31 2024

Surprise fun, never heard of it. Strange voice and beats.

Step In The Arena by Gang Starr
Feb 01 2024

Solid rap on every front, beats lyrics flow. Felt like the best schoolyard rapper with battle punch lines got top-notch, mellow beats. The name means master mind. feels a bit hypnotic which can make it hard to follow the lyrics.

The Sun Rises In The East by Jeru The Damaja
Feb 02 2024

Solid, East Coast, vibe, rap, similar to Gang Starr, mixed with Wu-Tang, good lines and vibe but didn’t do anything special for me. Cool track you can’t stop the prophet where he’s going against his enemy, ignorance The bichez intro: Life is the result of the struggle between dynamic opposites, form and chaos, … and all the variations of yin yang, things always balance out

It's Blitz! by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Feb 05 2024

I’ve heard the hits, but this album really rocks that vibe, distinctive, singer voice with a great electronic/rock mixture, had me grooving.

I Should Coco by Supergrass
Feb 06 2024

It’s fast, but I didn’t like it very much except a few of the final songs like the couch one which had a good vibe. two because I didn’t actively dislike it, just didn’t like it. It’s drummer gets a serious work out playing this live.

Cypress Hill by Cypress Hill
Feb 07 2024

Mellow, funky, beat, mediocre wordplay, a good vibe, but I don’t think I would’ve put it on this list. Then I got pulled over and given a ticket put on pigs, right after, felt satisfying.

Brilliant Corners by Thelonious Monk
Feb 09 2024

Jazz vibin all day. Blends together and fades into the background, but sets a fl mellow mood

Aladdin Sane by David Bowie
Feb 12 2024

Creative, groovy. The title track Aladdin sane I really dug and had never heard. Very Bowie.

Rage Against The Machine by Rage Against The Machine
Feb 13 2024

Fire. Gets me pumped and went hard in the gym. Righteous political vibes, makes you feel like a young revolutionary.

Ctrl by SZA
Feb 14 2024

Vibe. of tempo, sweet voice, and interesting beats. Feels very modern 2024, this was ahead of its time in 2017. Sexy

Youth And Young Manhood by Kings of Leon
Feb 15 2024

Unique voice, interesting to hear earlier side of this band that I really enjoy later popular albums, mix of harder rock moments and chill country-ish vibes, wanna drink w them

Night Life by Ray Price
Feb 16 2024

Great voice, chill country vibes, feels a bit repetitive. Dig Night Life and Lonely Street.

Get Behind Me Satan by The White Stripes
Feb 19 2024

Rock n roll, every song has stuck in your head/sing a long potential, the pure simple drum feels like you could play it, jack shreds

Feb 20 2024

Funk jam. Keys/organ go off. City, country, city highlight jam.

Ananda Shankar by Ananda Shankar
Feb 21 2024

Disappointing entry for this type of music, focused on covers of western songs that didn’t really do it for me. But the original ocean locked me in, and over all love the sound. This illustrates the unspoken requirement of this list to be western music; a version of this instrument/style that wasn’t western covers would’ve been better

Permission to Land by The Darkness
Feb 22 2024

🤘 I go back-and-forth on the voice. Opening track black shuck really hits. I had a great workout to this 20th anniversary of the album this year, they’re touring it, maybe want to see them

Mask by Bauhaus
Feb 23 2024

Still a dark tone, but funky and jammy. I expected dark German metal based on name and cover art, I was pleasantly surprised, really enjoyed.

Doggystyle by Snoop Dogg
Feb 27 2024

Funky beats, flow, u feel cool listening to it

Metal Box by Public Image Ltd.
Feb 29 2024

Vibe, chaotic-artistic, from lead singer of Sex Pistols. Listened to their first album as well, Fodderstompf “we only wanted to be loved” jam

The Rising by Bruce Springsteen
Mar 01 2024

I was excited to dive into Bruce, but found this album boring and uninspired. He’s got a great voice, but this was the first of the albums in this project that I wanted to end much sooner

Highway to Hell by AC/DC
Mar 04 2024

Gym rocked, classic guitar, just not exciting or special to me

Green Onions by Booker T. & The MG's
Mar 05 2024

Mar 06 2024

Woodface by Crowded House
Mar 07 2024

Meh

Oxygène by Jean-Michel Jarre
Mar 08 2024

ambient trippy, I dig, was good bubbly sounds, I enjoyed but didn’t feel particularly special within that genre

Chirping Crickets by Buddy Holly & The Crickets
Mar 12 2024

Appreciate how it was influential, nice to hear the original, not fadeaway, but overall I didn’t particularly like the sound other than to make fun of old Timey rock

Music From Big Pink by The Band
Mar 13 2024

Some classics, but overall slow and just didn’t do it for me, prefer the live versions of these songs

Peter Gabriel 3 by Peter Gabriel
Mar 14 2024

You can blow out a candle But you can’t put out the fire Once the flame spreads, the winds will take it higher

Drunk by Thundercat
Mar 15 2024

vibey, he's better live (more jazzy), but I'm feelin this

Mar 18 2024

🤘

Mar 20 2024

Epic

Space Ritual by Hawkwind
Mar 21 2024

Took me on a space trip

Is This It by The Strokes
Mar 22 2024

Groove rock, rythym guitar keeps the beat and the bass feels more lead/solo, I can see how it was a hit as contrast to typical rock sound

Sticky Fingers by The Rolling Stones
Mar 25 2024

Can you hear me knocking is an all timer. Rest of album JS Softer than I like the stones but top notch soft rock

You Want It Darker by Leonard Cohen
Mar 26 2024

Deep voice, Deep lyrics, centering love and connection (w girl or faith?). Unique voice

Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & The Holding Company
Mar 27 2024

Good vibes and joplins voice, love energy capture

Electric by The Cult
Mar 28 2024

Solid rock, but didn’t stand out, not sure why it’s on this list

The Low End Theory by A Tribe Called Quest
Apr 02 2024

Little Earthquakes by Tori Amos
Apr 05 2024

Apr 09 2024

Apr 16 2024

Some top folk hits, but filler as well

Punishing Kiss by Ute Lemper
Apr 17 2024

Passionate voice, brought me in

Take Me Apart by Kelela
Apr 18 2024

Voice and vibe but didn’t do it for me. Can see influence on sza etc

Heroes by David Bowie
Apr 22 2024

Creative master, uses some pop songs to bring in weirder stuff (last few songs)

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Apr 25 2024

Lovely, vocal harmonies and some folk hits, but overall didn’t really do it for me

Apr 26 2024

Interesting bass use

Mix of electro “hits” and deeper vibes w a melancholy tone

Rattus Norvegicus by The Stranglers
May 02 2024

Interesting rock vibe, fun and grimey tone

All Hope Is Gone by Slipknot
May 03 2024

I tried and appreciate the technical skill, just not my speed/tone, even in the gym it’s grating

Doolittle by Pixies
May 06 2024

Powerful alt, many hits and rock vibe punk energy w an emo voice

Bossanova by Pixies
May 07 2024

Rockin, dig storm is coming, prefer other pixies album

May 08 2024

OK Computer by Radiohead
May 09 2024

May 13 2024

Vibes

Walking Wounded by Everything But The Girl
May 16 2024

Machine Gun Etiquette by The Damned
May 17 2024

Fun, good workout, last two especially, good punk vibes

Sea Change by Beck
May 21 2024

Not bad, but I didn’t like it much. Peaceful sounds, I wasn’t lyric focused, some moments of ambient or rock out, but I’d pass

Rock Bottom by Robert Wyatt
May 23 2024

Interesting? Lyrics didn’t mean much to me, but a unique vibe, constant tuning but attuned.

Fear Of A Black Planet by Public Enemy
May 24 2024

Rock/rap beats had me going, peak old school hip hop. Fight the power

Amnesiac by Radiohead
May 28 2024

Still not the best of Radiohead, but deep locked in

May 30 2024

May 31 2024

Vibin. This is hell, clown strike,

Exile On Main Street by The Rolling Stones

Serious energy in the room. Shout out phish 8 but this was much better, possibly peak of one of the classic rock greats

Laid back, sensual, draws u in

Jun 07 2024

Mellow

Blue Lines by Massive Attack

Jun 12 2024

Straight 🔥

jazz but classic sounding piano at an opera house in Germany , interesting story of Jarrett arrivjng, tired, and travel weary with a lesser piano, but had to work with it for the recording and crushed

Some rock hits, karaoke central, overall falls flat
