1001 Albums Summary

I’m sure being there when it was recorded would have been a mindblowing experience, but recorded, it feels tedious, relegated to ambience at a hipster cafe that insists on playing vinyl slightly too loud.

Goddamn did Elvis write a lot of the exact same song. It’s a pretty GOOD song but i wouldn’t listen to 12 of remixes of a band’s one hit wonder in a row, and this is only marginally better ;)

This is inscrutable to me. Is it good? Bad? I am neither qualified nor culturally versed to answer this.

Bowie’s not my favourite ALBUM writer, so thin that context, some standouts, but also some weak and directionless tracks. The album at least feels thematically consistent, and it gets some credit for that, even if some moments let it down. A little surprised I’d never heard ‘Set the world on fire’ before, it’s a banger.

This was not what I expected (complementary)

I liked it

I don’t think this aged well. Last Night is the best/most dynamic song here, but the rest are pretty eh

Had never heard of this prior, it’s not bad. Title track is the only real memorable song once all is said and done though.

Pretty ok, but I didn’t find it that memorable.
