1001 Albums Summary

Saved songs: - Candle in the Wind - Bennie and the Jets (Favourite) - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road - I've seen that movie too - All The Girls Love Alice Honorable Mention: -Harmony - Saturday Night's Alright -The Ballad of Danny Bailey I've heard songs off of this record before but never listened to it's entirety, silly me, this is a stunning record and it's obvious as to why it's argued as his best. Catchy tunes, relatable lyrics, good stories that carry through the songs perfectly. Some filler here and there but expected with its size. The album fluctuates genres a bit as well with some rock, some fusion, lots of Jazzy tunes and even a touch of country near the end (tf? lol). Overall 4/5 *

Favourites: -The Man comes Around - Hurt -I Hung My head -Danny boy -We'll Meet Again Honorable Mention: -Personal Jesus -I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry -Streets Of Laredo I haven't listened to much of Mr. Cash, but this was memorable. It was moving, It was Folksy, Bluesy; the covers were done well. The low points were fairly low although the high points make up for it very well. The one-two combo of the first two tracks absolutely breaks you down, it allows you to experience the rest of the album in a sort of somber/desperate way. 3.5/5*

Liked Songs: -Our Lips Are Sealed - We Got The Beat -Automatic -Lust To Love Honorable Mention: -Tonite - How Much More A huge cornerstone of the New Wave movement, The Go-Go's lead record Beauty and The Beat is full of catchy hooks, trendy instrumentals and some fairly forward thinking. This is a really fun album and I've appreciated listening to it, the Honorable mention list realistically could have the entirety of the album on it minus the hits. 4/5*

Saved Songs: -Every Breath You Take -Synchronicity II -Wrapped Around Your Finger Honorable Mentions: -Miss Gradenko -King Of Pain It took until Miss Gradenko for this record to click for me, the first few songs we're pretty jarring and all over the place (and to be fair, I'm not a big The Police guy). Once I started listening to each song on its own, the feeling of each song being its own soundtrack started to come to me. Every Breath You Take is one of the timeless classics and Synchronicity II is an uplifting instrumental paired with a depressive tale that just works really well. Second half of this record carries hard for me. 3/5 *

Saved Songs: -Sympathy For The Devil -No Expectations Honorable mentions: -Jigsaw Puzzle -Street Fighting Man - Stray Cat Blues -Salt Of The Earth Height of the Stone's success, the last recorded album with Brian Johnson not only an active member of the band but life as well. One of their best, touching on themes from class warfare to heartbreak, even a track dedicated to sleeping around with kids; peak Jagger! 4/5*
