1001 Albums Summary

Abattoir Blues / The Lyre of Orpheus by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

Even better than I remembered. The title points the way -- Nick Cave is a great lyricist. This record should be listened to when you can heard the words, not at work.

The Velvet Underground by The Velvet Underground

Not as much of a bop as I expected. Solid though.

Ágætis Byrjun by Sigur Rós

Probably better in headphones. I really think you have to be in the mood. I remember it being something I liked a lot back in 2005.

Off The Wall by Michael Jackson

Surprisingly good. I can see why it was a breakthrough in its day -- hard to pinpoint to a specific era, difficult to classify.

1999 by Prince

Couldn't even finish it. I can't figure out the hype with Prince.

Tellin’ Stories by The Charlatans

Never even heard of this! Very contemporary with Oasis and the Stone Roses.
