1001 Albums Summary

Was dancing around the house by myself. Unexpectedly fun.

Good musicianship but not my taste

I feel like this one has been overplayed, but it's classic for a reason.

What a great album. I never realized how many classic, timeless songs came off of this.

Well produced but it's not really my thing.

Interesting lyrics. Glad I listened to this multiple times as I haven't listened to their music much. It's good but not something I would seek out.

Glad to know where some of these classics came from.

Although it's not my type of music particularly, it's iconic.

I just learned about Faces in the last year. I like them.

Professional and good, but a little too syrupy for me.

Good to hear this. Brings me back.

Good, iconic Rod Stewart
