1001 Albums Summary

First album of this project, and it's one of my favourite albums from my favourite group. Not much to say except simply amazing music. Personally, not really a fan of pulk/pull and Hunting Bears, but I can't get enough of bangers like I Might Be Wrong, Pyramid Song, Knives Out, and my personal favourite: Life in a Glasshouse.

Never really listened to the Beatles much, this is the first album of theirs I'm listening to in it's entirety. Come Together is very catchy and groovy, and the guitar solo is really cool. "Something" isn't exactly bad, but it's not my type either. I love the chord progression in some parts though. Maxwell's silver hammer sounds a bit silly to have such gruesome lyrics, which is interesting but I'm not sure I like it. The vocals on Oh! Darling are awesome and I love the guitar. Octopus Garden is a good song, but I just don't like the words "octopus' garden". Can't explain it. I want you (she's so heavy) is the type of song that I'm not into, but I can see why people enjoy it. I think it's too long and repetitive, but that's just me. Here comes the Sun is one I obviously already knew. It's a great song, nothing more needs to be said (I couldn't help but sing along). Because is a good song, but sometimes the backing instruments feel a bit jarring. You never give me your money has a great chord progression, but I'm not sure if I really like the changing vocals. Sun King isn't really a good song. Mean Mr Mustard's upbeat sound contrasts nicely with the slow Sun King, it's a very fun little song, but it's good that it's so short. Polythene Pam is a bit strange, the best parts are whenever there's no vocals. It's followed up by She Came In through the bathroom window, which fits so nicely I didn't even notice the song changed. I really like the sort of western sound this one has. I can't believe I hadn't listened to Golden Slumbers before... It's so beautiful... I feel like this song alone is enough to make up for the few less good (in my opinion) songs on this album. It's a shame that Carry that Weight practically belongs to Golden Slumbers, because while I do like it, I'm more of a Spotify Shuffle guy, so I'll practically never hear them together. Basically same thing for The End. All in all I think this is a pretty good album, but I doubt I'll revisit most of the songs on here. Maybe I'm too young to really appreciate this music, I'm not sure. I can see people enjoying this though.

it's a solid album with amazing highs like Life on Mars and Quicksand, but sometimes it does feel repetitive or forgettable in my opinion.

I'm not much into blues, or this kind of music, but I did enjoy the first song a lot.

not a big fan of jazz unfortunately
