1001 Albums Summary

Very good album. Especially on beautiful day. I all ready knew most of the songs

It’s a total classic!

Great party album!

D great way to start the day!!

D great way to start the day!!

Radio has ruined this one a bit because I have heard these tracks thousands of times but the less known tracks were worth it and overall it is a great album

This one was not for me. It’s a strange combination of folk and psychedelic rock that feels like it works musically but the vocals and lyrics did not feel attached to the rhythms for me. It felt more like an experiment then a finished product in my opinion

This was a really fun throwback. Quintessential doo wop album

This one is a classic. Very enjoyable from start to finish

This one was very good musically but the vocals were a bit theatrical

The best blues I’ve heard yet!

Very mellow and enjoyable

Very mellow and enjoyable

I can see the talent but this just didn’t really click with me…

OG rocker

Very good. Classic American sound but still poppy enough to play in any situation

Very bluesy - I liked it

One of the best of the 90s

I can appreciate the musical talent but the vocals are incomprehensible unfortunately

Great big band sound

I feel like this sounded like a Quentin Tarantino film from the 90s as an album.

I understand the significance of this album to pop music as a whole but it felt very repetitive. The same handful of chords and very similar rhythm lines throughout. Not one of my favs on the list so far

Classic 60s pop rock sound

This was an unexpectedly awesome album. I thought for sure this had come out 10 years later than it did just because the sound was so modern. I guess they were the genre defining act that everyone tried to emulate tho. Great album

Classic stones!! What a great way to start my week!

Sounds like the inspiration for Coldplay

Good album. Lou Reed is not really my flavor but he is clearly very talented

Mr. Spaceman is good. It is a pretty trippy album overall

This was a fun one. I knew some of the songs but the B sides were goood as well

Great party album!! Took me back to the block parties in the early 90s!

Very interesting. I am glad I listened to it but I will probably never hear it again

One of the best live albums I’ve heard!

Classic 90s stuff. I only knew the 1 major single heading into this album but I really liked all the tracks overall

Classic 90s hip hop before the west coast sound blew up.

Awesome 70s sound!

The Bruce is loose!

Great summer road trip album!

Pretty mellow 70s rock.

Great album from my youth. I have heard it a thousand times but can listen a thousand more!

I had never heard of this artist but I really enjoyed this album

Great album. One I have heard but it is a good listen so I am not surprised to see it here.

I have always felt like this was an underrated album. Happy to come across it here

This was a great morning listen. Very relaxing

They sound like the inspiration for The Strokes. Good album

I had previously only heard 1 song off this album but I was surprised at how serious the tone actually was. The music sounds like 90s pop/r&b but the lyrics cover a wide range of serious topics

This was a super fun listen! Perfect for the summer in my opinion

The absolute best of Wu-Tang in my opinion!

This one didn’t do much for me. I can hear the inspiration it has over the 90s pop rock sound though

Very interesting early techno

Jazz do be jazzin

A true classic sound with a very modern edge for the time. We lost a unique voice when we lost amy

Classic MJ!

This is a great 90s rock album!

This had a nice sound. Like sad cowboy blues but a polished 60s vibe. I enjoyed it but do not know it it will be added to my rotation

Very clear inspiration for bands like Type O Negative. I like the edgy, early industrial stuff though

Ok- this one was some kind of crazy, German musical theater soundtrack or something. The music sounded like it was the inspiration for the final fantasy video game soundtracks which was pretty cool though

This one was really awesome. An artist I was not familiar with, but an album I will listen to again for sure.

Classic. Great album all around

This is like hard core elevator music. Imagine an elevator by a pool at a tropical resort. This album is playing

Classic. This is a great one to experience again

Very nice and relax My r&b album

This was a nice surprise. They have a very mixed/classic 70s sound with a modern edge. The comfortably numb cover has a disco vibe but the vocal melody felt off

Great album. I have heard this band but never listened to an entire record and it was awesome!

Great guitar rock album!

Had a lighter David Bowie vibe to me

Pretty good. Not really my cuppa but I didn’t hate it

This one is a classic in pop music!

I can see why it’s in the list but it’s not for me

The perfect album for my day today. Even though these are all covers, johnny cash recording these tracks in the twilight of his life and presenting them in this order is true art.

Interesting new wave sound but I don’t love the quality of the vocals unfortunately. I found them more distracting than engaging

Interesting but it was literally just sound so it didn’t click with me

This was a good album. I have only heard their radio songs before this so I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed their other work

Pretty I retesting overall. Kind of feels like the gorillas with a lot less lyrics

Really great album. She has such a range of emotion in her voice that pairs so perfectly with the music and the poetry of her lyrics that is unlike any other artist

Not bad for house misoc

Great album by a great artist. I had never heard this one but I did enjoy it very much

This was awesome actually. Never heard of him but thoroughly enjoyed it!

Another classic 90s album. Oasis was not my favorite back then but they have grown on me. This was a good album

Love the disco staple sister sledge!

Great album. Brought me back!

Very good 80s vibe

This was good even though I did not understand most of it lol

The smiths are awesome. One of a kind

Nice

The smiths are awesome. One of a kind

An instrumental album of absolute insanity

Weird but fun

Pretty good. Not really my vibe tho

Nice

Classic 90s rock. These guys are one of the best

Chill

This one is a true classic!

It’s the Beatles man!!

Fun. Very chill

This is their peak in my opinion. Still hard enough to sound like their early albums but far more accessible

90s hip hop at its best

Good but not for me

This was a cool surprise. It’s the reason I took on this project. This album was a great mix of disco and a bowie sound. Very fun

Good but not for me

Good but not for me

My instinct is to say generic indie rock but I know it’s actually definitive indie rosck so there you have it.

Absolute classic and this live album is one of their best ever performances

It had a pretty good vibe. I don’t know that I will ever listen again or recognize it if it comes on tho

Fun- classic queen

Literally the worst of 90s pop imo

Meh- I had a hard time getting through this one for some reason

Great classic rock band that are just not as famous as other major acts but are just as talented

Meh- I had a hard time getting through this one for some reason

Great album for the genre

I can understand how talented she is but it’s Not for me.

This one was a lot of fun and I had no idea who this artist was

This one was a lot of fun and I had no idea who this band was

One of the top albums of that decade for sure

I never understood the appeal of Springsteen and still don’t. I can hear the talent tho

This one was a lot of fun and I had no idea who this artist was

True classic

I can appreciate Dylan but I can’t enjoy him. It just doesn’t grab me

Great voice. Not my fav album by them but a great one nonetheless

Great sound. No singles like a lot of these albums so I guess they never took off for that reason

Very fun album.

Her voice is great but it didn’t connect with me

Great sound! A true classic. 4 stars.

Very good. Super talented rock band

Weird but talented

I understand why this album made the list but it did not resonate with me

Better than I thought it would be!

This was a good one. Never heard of these guys but I enjoyed this album

Classic hip hop from a time when finding poetry in the genre was not easy. Price Paul’s beats are also so iconic and distinct that they instantly transport you back to the 90s

Pretty good. I didn’t connect with it but I can see why some people enjoy it

Good- definitely psychedelic

Very good but nothing I will really remember

Good. I had never listened to them but I can see why people like it

Fantastic. One of the best on the list so far

Weird one for me dog

Fantastic. One of the best on the list so far

No my thing but they are super talented

True classic!!

Better than I thought but I still don’t get the hype on these guys.

Not my favorite by Prince but still very good

They sound way more like the Beatles on this one

Great album with a handful of really great songs but a lot of filler in between also

This one was weird. The tracks were cool but not sure I will listen again

One of the best of all time

One of their best

One of their best

More fun than I expected

Distilled 80s pop sound that has clear links in the 90s r&b scene

One of their best

Nirvanas peak

She’s a true classic

I had not listened to this one by him but it is clearly one of his best!

Good but not my vibe

Good but not my fav by them

True classic

Fun. ‘Piano riff wooo’ is a classic!

One of their best!

Love Bowie but this one was too experimental for my tastes

True classic from start to finish

Great artist

Pretty good. I have heard of this band but never listened. It was better than what it had imagined

The sound was good but didn’t land with me

Great album from start to finish. This one had a clear impact on the genre

A definitive album for the genre at that time. The hots are well known but the rest of the album felt like filler

One of the best ever

I enjoyed it but it was not for me

I enjoyed it but it was not for me

A lot of hits that I knew on this one

It was good but not one I will go back to I think

Not for me unfortunately

Masterpiece

Very interesting. Not sure I will listen again but it expanded on what I had all ready known of this artist and I am glad to have heard it at least this one time

The best

The best

One of the best albums by one of the best bands to ever do it

Like Pink Floyd with Paul Simon or the Dire Straits - very good listen

If I had to shoot a Halloween movie entirely within a party city- this would be the perfect album for that

Fun!

Solid classic rock sound

Not for me

Fun

One of the originals and likely a huge impact on his genre but not my taste.

Possibly the most Dylan of all

Interesting and really mellow

Defined an era

Very good blues band

This was fun and moody.

Very influential because you can hear their sound in the 90s grunge scene but I could not find any tracks to grab onto from this album

Not my fav group but undeniably talented

This was fun and moody.

A lot of 90s acts tried to pull off this sound without doing as good of a job

Somewhere between the smiths and emo you will find this album.

Probably the best at what they do

One of his best but not my personal fav

Classic

Weird Halloween vibe

Pretty weird - even for this list

Way better than I thought. It might be the definitive sample and drum beat hip hop of the 90s

I was expecting something else. Not really my cuppa

Really good classic rock vibes

Great band. Great listen

Way better than I expected

I was expecting something else. Not really my cuppa

Very good!

One of the best

The modern beyoncé sound. I am not a fan but I can recognize why some people would like it

Never heard of them and they were great. Exactly the kind of experience I was looking for by following this project

Very good classic rock album

Very good classic rock album

This is the soundtrack to so many important moments from my childhood and I was an 80s kid so I think the impact can not be understated for this one

One of the best!!

Another punk album on this list…

I enjoyed it more than I thought I would!

Not something I would have ever listened to on my own. Glad I did

Interesting vibe but nothing grabbed me

A good showcase of the dead at their craft. Not their absolute best live work but a good look into what fans love about them

One of the best to do it

Very nice change of pace for me

More of a sound experience than a music album

Interesting story behind this album and McLaren in general

Pretty good modern jazz

This is truly an album everyone should listen at least once in their lives

Tom Waits album #1

The best at it

Very good but not for me

Good but nothing grabbed me

The 5th star is probably nostalgia but this one is a pop music masterpiece

One of the best by one of the best

One of the best by one of the best

One of the best by one of the best

Really good but it didn’t grab me

Very good album

It was ok. Not for me tho

Very good early industrial sound

Very good album from a classic

Very fun early rock and roll

Sounds like where the doors got the basis of their sound before adding the carnival keyboards

Very good album by a great band
