Rocks

Aerosmith

5/5

I must have listened to the A side of this album 1001 times back in the late 70s/80s. So yes - I like it - I like it a lot. In fact there is nothing I don’t like about this band — Aerosmith!

Grizzly Bear

1/5

Not good

Safe As Milk

Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band

3/5

Liked this one cover to cover. Timely tempo changes and the singer’s raspy voice kept me listening)

Blackstar

David Bowie

1/5

Should be in the 1001 albums not to listen to before you die. Typically I like Bowie.

More Songs About Buildings And Food

Talking Heads

3/5

Was never a Talking Heads fan growing up but turned into a big David Byrne fan after seeing him live with a couple buddies and a big bag of the rock and roll tobacco. Now when I listen to the talking heads — I realize what I was missing back in the day.

Fulfillingness' First Finale

Stevie Wonder

2/5

Skimmed through this one….

Made In Japan

Deep Purple

5/5

Mike drop — Boom Bitch!

Aja

Steely Dan

4/5

Wow - enjoyed this album immensely. What a great groove — Planning to listen again in the summer whilst cruising in my rag top with my K9)

B-52's

The B-52's

2/5

Drop the dude and this band would be better.

Punishing Kiss

Ute Lemper

1/5

You know that kill bill 2 movie where she gets buried alive and uses her 1 inch punch against the inner coffin and eventually escapes after hours of relentless grueling effort …

Violent Femmes

1/5

Not something I would want to listen to during a colonoscopy.

Live At The Regal

B.B. King

5/5

My mood ring went from black to violet.

Larks' Tongues In Aspic

King Crimson

2/5

Superfuzz Bigmuff

Mudhoney

2/5

I only had a chance to listened to a few random songs. There are Dozens of bands that do the same thing only better.

I Against I

Bad Brains

2/5

The looping gets to be monotonous at times but overall I like the mix — very Pendulum without the Z-tar.

Music for the Masses

Depeche Mode

1/5

This is a big bag of poop.

Urban Hymns

The Verve

2/5

When this band first arrived on the seen — I was expecting much more. Instead it turned into a 1 hit wonder…

Non-Stop Erotic Cabaret

Soft Cell

1/5

What's That Noise?

Coldcut

3/5

After listening to the first song — I thought I was in for greatness but the following tunes never really matched up.

Shadowland

k.d. lang

2/5

I wish I could be more receptive but just don’t dig it.

Home Is Where The Music Is

Hugh Masekela

3/5

I’ve almost exclusively listened to contemporary Jazz for the last year. While not modern, this fit right in…

Fragile

Yes

3/5

Became a YES fan after seeing them live back in the mid 90’s. I was entertained)

On The Beach

Neil Young

4/5

Simplicity at its best.

The Köln Concert

Keith Jarrett

2/5

Never listened to Keith before — Very Nice! Great drummer he he.

The Wall

Pink Floyd

5/5

I went to Floyd live 3 times in the late 80’s and 90’s. One of the best concerts of all time. BTW it’s a misconception that the dark side of the moon never sees the light. The back side of the moon faces the sun daily as it orbits around the earth, however, we on earth only see one side of the moon as the moon’s orbit is locked facing the earth — these are things you contemplate, as an astronaut, at a Pink Floyd concert.

Ágætis Byrjun

Sigur Rós

1/5

So that’s where that song svefn-G-Englar came from. Now I know…

O.G. Original Gangster

Ice T

3/5

This is ok. Glad I had an opportunity to listen.

Amnesiac

Radiohead

4/5

Everything sounds dark, eerie and creepy. Vocals sound like a cat in heat. Not many bands, if any, can pull this shit off. Summary — luv it!

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill

Lauryn Hill

2/5

Too much yo yo for me me yo.

Welcome to the Afterfuture

Mike Ladd

1/5

I found nothing I can latch on to here. This is simply music that does not resonate with me.

3/5

Lou Reed came from this band? Had no idea. I’d give this album another listen…

The Scream

Siouxsie And The Banshees

3/5

Not bad)

Fleet Foxes

5/5

Would I listen again: 5 Vocals: 5 Instrumentation: 5 Arrangement: 5 Lyrics: 5 Would I recommend: 5 Also a Great album cover. I thought I was listening to, trampled by turtles (Minnesota), a band I adore. Perhaps not for everyone but for me, this one is keeper)

Blonde On Blonde

Bob Dylan

4/5

Hell of an Album. Would be a five if it wasn’t for his kazoo voice.

Behaviour

Pet Shop Boys

1/5

This is another one that should be in the 1001 albums not to listen to before you die.

Mj Cole

1/5

This is a big bag of poop

Never heard of this band and was pleasantly surprised. This is the stuff that keeps me interested and listening — on this journey of 1001 albums.

Rocks

Aerosmith

5/5

I must have listened to the A side of this album 1001 times back in the late 70s/80s. So yes - I like it - I like it a lot. In fact there is nothing I don’t like about this band — Aerosmith!

Gorillaz

18 songs. 2 versions of Clint Eastwood. A Rock the house vid. This album is jam packed with content. Like the effort but not my style…

Wasn’t a big fan originally but their sound has grown on me over the years. This is a most excellent album.

KE*A*H** (Psalm 69)

Ministry

I’m not a fan of the thrash throat vocals. The rest — pretty good.

Highway 61 Revisited

Bob Dylan

4/5

Hard not to like Bob with a band.

Moon Safari

Air

3/5

I can dig it. I think they over reached trying to put out ten tunes. Would have been a better album without 1 or two tracks. Remember should have been forgotten)

Hotel California

Eagles

5/5

Neil’s best album! Wish he could still write this well)
