1001 Albums Summary

Quintessential reggae.

Listened to this one a LOT when growing up. It was influential. Even covered Chameleon in a ska band I was in. Revolutionary in the use of synth.

Not an album I have heard before. Interesting start with the video game sounds. Think it's great that it is a full album, not just singles. And there are some "filler" tracks.

Iconic. I enjoyed the album more after watching the documentary about her as well as the biopic.

You can hear the panning. The strings are pretty hard panned to the left and hi hat is hard right. The organ is also on the left side. Horns are left center.

Iconic. Unique style.

I haven't heard of this one before. Interested to listen to it. Sounds like a bit of a cross of country with some island sound in the first song. I like the albums where you can hear slight imperfections. Hear some Bob Dylan in there.

A few of the songs I've heard a lot. The whole album is kind of in the same tone. It is "Coldplay". If you like their stuff then you like their stuff. I think it is OK.

Pretty extreme use of panning. A lot of room sound or reverb.

Never heard of this band before to my recollection. It will be interesting to see if I actually recognize any of these songs. Nothing really grabbed me as my favorite style of music.

Lots of iconic drum loops. Seems to be the forefront of sampling. Not necessarily my style. Gets tiring after a while of the same repetitiveness. But I hear a lot of the electronic iconic stuff within this album. Makes me think of the Freestylers. This makes me want to be in my car with the sub.

I still like Nevermind better than In Utero.

Seems iconic. But not an album I would listen to over and over.

Motherfucking Michael Jackson.

I'd never really heard Leonard Cohen before. I'd heard his name, but not his music or his style. It is unique for sure. A deep dark smoky voice. Makes me think about Tom Waits. Interesting atonal singing at times. Gravely is the word that comes to mind, but smooth gravel. Pea gravel. A dark bar. You Want It Darker is a very fitting name for this album.

Not really my style.

Feels very southern. In both tone and lazy laid back feel. Chill and groove.

Folktechno is kind of correct. Interesting band. This album didn't completely resonate with me, but it was enjoyable. I'm not blown away by it and would like recommend that people absolutely need to listen to it necessarily, but it was enjoyable.

Led Fucking Zeppelin. Great album. Great band.

Great example of sampling. So many samples from iconic songs.

Chill.

The poor singing and lack of intonation made me not enjoy listening to this album. Not my style of music.

Don't really love punk.

I don't really like his vocal style. It's too out of tune for my taste. And lacks energy. I don't like a lot of atonal singing.

Loved this combination of old and new.

Absolutely great. Amazing voice.

In the same vein as Led Zepplin and Pink Floyd. Great melodic rock.

Beautiful and unique guitar work. So musical.

Get a bit of that atonal singing that I don't love. Sounds like the first step towards the British punk a bit. Cleaned up brit punk.

So great.

Very much in the same vein as the Beatles.

Love the use of the talk box.
