Popular Reviews

Hunky Dory by David Bowie

As my Polish friend zbig, may say — This kicks many asses

Rocks by Aerosmith

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!

Safe As Milk by Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band
Feb 08 2024

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

Blackstar by David Bowie
Feb 12 2024

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

Feb 13 2024

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.

Made In Japan by Deep Purple
Feb 19 2024

Mike drop — Boom Bitch!

Aja by Steely Dan
Feb 21 2024

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 by The B-52's
Feb 22 2024

Drop the dude and this band would be better.

Punishing Kiss by Ute Lemper
Feb 23 2024

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 by Violent Femmes
Feb 26 2024

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

Superfuzz Bigmuff by Mudhoney
Feb 29 2024

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 by Bad Brains
Mar 01 2024

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

Urban Hymns by The Verve
Mar 05 2024

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

What's That Noise? by Coldcut
Mar 07 2024

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

Shadowland by k.d. lang
Mar 08 2024

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

Home Is Where The Music Is by Hugh Masekela
Mar 11 2024

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

Fragile by Yes
Mar 12 2024

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

On The Beach by Neil Young
Mar 13 2024

Simplicity at its best.

The Köln Concert by Keith Jarrett
Mar 14 2024

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

The Wall by Pink Floyd
Mar 15 2024

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 by Sigur Rós
Mar 18 2024

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

Amnesiac by Radiohead
Mar 21 2024

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!

Mar 27 2024

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

The Velvet Underground by The Velvet Underground
Mar 28 2024

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

The Scream by Siouxsie And The Banshees
Mar 29 2024

Not bad)

Fleet Foxes by Fleet Foxes
Apr 01 2024

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 by Bob Dylan
Apr 02 2024

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

Behaviour by Pet Shop Boys
Apr 04 2024

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

Pearl by Janis Joplin
Apr 08 2024

Songbird of her generation. I likey)

Sincere by Mj Cole
Apr 10 2024

This is a big bag of poop

Faust IV by Faust
Apr 11 2024

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 by Aerosmith
Apr 12 2024

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 by Gorillaz
Apr 15 2024

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…

Purple Rain by Prince
Apr 22 2024

Sorry - can’t stand this guys music and don’t care about his backstory.

Bug by Dinosaur Jr.
Apr 24 2024

Dudes voice is a bit sucky

Hunky Dory by David Bowie
May 01 2024

As my Polish friend zbig, may say — This kicks many asses

Rio by Duran Duran
May 02 2024

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) by Ministry
May 03 2024

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

Moon Safari by Air
May 08 2024

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)

Harvest by Neil Young
May 14 2024

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