1001 Albums Summary

This, my first album of the generator, was one of my favourites when I was younger but I hadn’t listened to it in years. What a delight to rediscover this powerhouse from REM as my first album.

I’ve often heard of the pixies, but had never listened to them until this came up for me today. Now I know why I never listened to them. Definitely not my thing.

I liked some of the songs on here. It was more to my younger taste than my current taste. But I’m glad to have discovered this artist and this album. I’d never heard of either before.

Great album. A couple of those songs I knew while, but had no idea they were by Iggy Pop. I thought the whole thing was excellent.

I only really knew 90125. This was a good album even though I’m not a progressive rock fan generally.

Listening to this album was a reminder that I don’t really like Steely Dan. I listened to it, but I didn’t enjoy it.

Not a huge fan of R&B. I just listened to snippets of this and I still feel this way.

R&B is not my thing. I listened to some of this but skipped through a lot of the songs. I recognize her talent but this is simply not my thing.

I love Alice Cooper and haven’t listened to this album inmany years. I first heard this album as a young teenager. And it had the best line of all time (we can’t even think of a word that rhymes).

I’ve heard of this band, but I had never listened to any of their stuff. I could definitely listen to it again, although I wouldn’t run out and buy the album.

This is my first five star review since I started on this project. I’m not sure if it’s primarily because I’m genX and was still in my formative years or not, but 33 years later I still really love this great album. Almost every song on the album is fantastic and even the worst songs are still good and the best are fantastic. I haven’t listened to it in many years and still remembered it like I’d just to it a month ago. 💕 Grunge for life baby!

A couple of songs I remembered. Most I had never heard before. Meh.

Meh . My husband was upset that I didn't appreciate this album more.

This is the first time I’ve listened to the entire album. I knew the hits but not the other songs. I can see that with a bit of play it would be a good album.

It’s Radiohead so it’s great.

I like Elton John, but in smaller doses. Maybe I’ve just been over exposed over the years. I can easily listen to this album, but I probably wouldn’t choose to do so.

I'm a sucker for REM and this album is fantastic although it's not my favourite. Unlike many bands, REM's words actually have meaning. Add a catchy tune and it's a winning combination.

I’ve never heard of him or this album, and I hope to never hear of him again. I was able to listen to a couple of songs without cringing, but most of them were a painful experience. Maybe I’m not at a high enough level of consciousness if so, I hope I never reach whatever level that would take.

I wanted to like this more than I did. It’s listenable but I wouldn’t choose it.

I’m not the biggest fan of the Who but this is a good album.

There isn’t a bad some on this album. I sort of forgot just how great it is until this relistening.

Meh

Album. Not my favourite Springsteen album but still pretty good after all these years.

New artist for me and new album. I liked it and can imagine it would grow on me even more with further listening.

Ok album.

Meh. It’s ok but I’m not sure I’d listen to it again.

Unlistenable. This is my worst album so far.

A few catchy”ish” tunes but I’d never listen to it again.

There isn’t a bad song on this fantastic album. I’m so glad I rediscovered this after not listening to it in its entirety for ages.

This album is not for me.

Decent album.

I loved listening to this album again. It had been at least a couple of decades since I had listened to it in its entirety and it is as good as the first time I listened to it.

This isn’t for me.

One of my all time favourite albums.

Such a great album from start to finish.

This is not my cup of tea. I can't imagine I would ever listen to this.

Fantastic album. Thoroughly enjoyed listening to it again.
