1001 Albums Summary

Great Album! Very well recorded to a live album from 1963. Sam was a great show man!

Absolute Bang! Live album with such a massive sound. Purple at their prime: no mistakes! Actually, you can hear mistakes in their performances. Even just a few. But that's what make this album so great: Their REAL! They're actually playing. And playing very well!

This was an excellent surprise. Revolver is one of the most indispensable albums of my life. Revolutionary album; magnificent songs; Beatles at their peak: no mistakes! 10/10

High Quality Jazz! I had never heard of Charles Mingus before. It was a beautiful surprise! I liked!

A 2000's Classic! It's so good to hear Chester's voice again. It's huge for a first album. In The End is an imortal song!

I still can't believe that even after all these years, this album still gives me goosebumps. Definitely an immortal album that breathes fresh air to this day

Interesting discovery! It was like listening to Alanis Morissette in a grunge band. I feel like one day wasn't enough to properly appreciate this. I'll need a few more rounds to digest it properly. I wonder where I was, I had never heard this before...

Fantastic! The best that the 70s sound had, compressed into a single album. I was won over at the exact moment the chords of Rikki Don't Lose That Number began to sound. Many artists from my homeland (Brazil) speak very highly of Steely Dan. This was the perfect opportunity for me to delve deeper into their work!

Today was the day to dust off my old CD to enjoy some of this music that has already been imprinted in my soul since I was a teenager. There's not much to say. Absolute classic that never gets old

When a woman with a voice as powerful as this can achieve the sweetest melodies, something special is certainly about to come. It wasn't a surprise at all. When I looked at the album cover I already expected to hear a spectacular voice and I was more than right. It was a pleasant surprise!

Translate text with your camera This is probably my favorite album.

I don't even talk about that...

If today I am a great admirer of Dylan's work, I owe it to this album, which was responsible for opening the doors to this universe that this gentleman provides us with. Absolute Classic!

In my opinion, Eagles represents the perfect stereotype of an American rock band from the 70's. Rock of the highest quality, of course! It's unbelievable that they managed to make an album with such sound quality on its first release. Take it Easy is in every classic collection from the 70s, for sure!

It's not my kind of music, for sure. But in such a decadent pop music scene, this album sounds like a breath of fresh air. Very well done and well produced. But as I said before: It's not something I'll hear every day.

Another CD that had its dust removed today. It was great to remember this album that I've been listening to since I was a teenager. To this day, if I want to introduce Heavy Metal to someone who has never had contact with the genre, this is the album I recommend every time, after all, it is synonymous with this type of sound!

Black Sabbath with Ozzy didn't make a single bad album. I don't think they even made a single bad song at that time. Classic band, with 4 classic members, playing in a raw way and making classic albums. There is nothing more to say!

Punk Rock albums tend to be Russian roulette: you don't know if you're going to hear a masterpiece or a piece of shit. But today was a pleasant surprise. I've been hearing about Magazine for a long time, but only today I had my first experience. Excellent sound for a 1978 album, good songs, very well performed... perfect album!

A golden age disco album. Absolutely everything that came out at that time is either very good or has become a classic. I didn't know CHIC. But when I looked at the album cover I already knew it was going to be BANG!

This album has a timeless sound that, even after almost five decades, still sounds like the music of a young rebellious teenager. Blitzkrieg Bop has become a classic that tops all playlists and collections of Punk Rock Anthems. Legendary!

Agressive and Young! I Kinda Like It!! It's like Nirvana meeting Green Day.

Without a doubt, this is the most different album I've ever heard. Especially because I had never heard an album of just acapella songs before. It's not the kind of thing to listen to casually. It has to be felt and observed, every little thing. It definitely has its value! The voices are very well harmonized. They make whoever listens to them feel comfortable and welcomed.

Perfect Rock album with the perfect lineup of members. They could have just made this record and then disappeared from the face of the earth, and they would still be considered legends. For me personally, the album has enormous credit for completely changing the face of the Rock n Roll scene at the time, bringing the good old sound in a raw and naked way.

I always thought that the band Roxy Music didn't have much "More Than This". I was apparently mistaken. Pleasant surprise; great album!

Great rap album! It has the sound of the 2000s. Nostalgic and heavy!

Probably one of the best Goth Rock albums I've ever heard. One Hundred Year and The Hanging Garden top most playlists and compilations of the genre. A curious fact is that I had never heard this entire album from start to finish in the sequence of tracks in which it was released. However, I already knew all the songs, precisely because they appear on all Goth Rock playlists. And in fact: they work much better together and in this sequence. Excellent Album!

Nowadays we live in a disgusting cult of celebrities. This could have started much sooner if these young Brits hadn't had the courage to express their anger. There is no way to imagine a world without Punk Rock and, without a doubt, this album is the definitive album of this genre. Album that made the great Rockstars come down from their pedestals as celestial and untouchable beings, in the presence of a band that spoke to the people.

I'm not a great connoisseur of Talking Heads' work, much less David Byrne. I had never even heard of Brian eno. So all I expected was Psycho Killer type, but it wasn't. It was actually a very interesting musical experience. An experimental album that definitely has its value and must be enjoyed calmly. But it's not something I'll hear every day.

A rap album with a much thicker sound than I'm used to hearing. It was a pleasant surprise!

It's impressive how an album based on such simple vocals and guitars can be so stupendous and comfortable to listen to. I didn't know Leonard Cohen. Little did I know that he is the composer of the legendary "Hallelujah". And even fewer knew that this was his first album. Still, the voice delivery and interpretation, and especially the lyrics, can be divine.

The Temptations is one of the musical groups that has been on my waiting list for a long time. Then the day arrived and everything I heard met my expectations. The wonderful songs My Girl and Papa Was A Rolling Stone have been part of my life for years and this album gave me everything I expected and more. Sensational! What else can I say? That's my kind of music!

Instruments very well fitted, songs very well made and performed. A beautiful album to listen to on a Wednesday afternoon while drinking tea.

Have you ever heard an album that made you feel like you were coming home? Well then: this is exactly the feeling this album gives me. Van Morrisson had been on my waiting list for some time and this was a pleasant surprise.

Honestly, I've never heard someone mix so many dissonant musical genres before without it sounding weird. On the contrary, it sounds fantastic. Her voice sounds like magic. Even though it's not really my type of music, I was impressed. I've proven that she really is what people say she is and this is just her first album... I can't wait for the others!

One of my top 20 favorite of all time for sure. And probably the best debut album of all time. No mistakes e no surprises here. Just the best that rock n roll has to offer!

I believe that's the first time I hear a jazz fusion album. Still got a lot to know. Boys like Zappa has been on my waiting list for a long time. Anyway. That was a great experience. I had to listen twice to get the feeling but it worked: Now i'm totaly into Jazz Fusion and i want to hear more! 4 stars that's the vote.

Dylan between 65-76 it's just perfect. There's not much to say about this. An album with Maggies Farm, Tambourine Man and Baby Blue must to be a Great album!

Brazil Mentioned! Brazil Mentioned! So good to hear something from my motherland. And what an album! Revolutionary and psychedelic. It represents some of the best Brazilian music has to offer. VIVA RITA LEE!!

I felt under the influence of ecstasy and was completely sober. What kind of music is this? How can the union of so many different sounds make you so "fast"? It's definitely not the kind of thing I hear every day, but it's definitely the first time I've heard something I can't understand. Therefore I am not able to apply a true assessment. I will give 3 stars

This is the best singer of this century. She only made 4 albums. And she couldn't make any bad songs! It was great to remember 25. I haven't listened to it in years. "Hello" still gives the same goosebumps from when it was the most listened to song in the world in 2016. Goosebumps! This is the word that defines her voice throughout her career, but especially on this album she was splendid. And even more especially in songs that give the impression that this woman is capable of absolutely anything, having only her voice and the piano in possession. 5 stars, of course!

An icon of the 2000s. Amy is greatly missed today, for her originality and talent. Back To Black is certainly one of the 5 best albums of the 2000s. The rating will be nothing other than 5 stars.

Okay this is boring. Seems like a background of some clothes shop.

At certain times, Barry invites you to a soft or lively dance in a ballroom with a jazz group playing in the background. At other times, Barry invites you for a late-night car ride. And at another point, he puts you to sleep on a bed of nails, along with your own mental discomforts. This was, without a doubt, a very ambiguous and intriguing experience.

Well, this is a classic! I'm feelling like 16 again! Jump was my clock alarm every morning when i was in highschool and Panama was the Bus Anthem! Even though I'm drowning in this feeling of nostalgia, there's something about this album that brings a sense of youth to whoever listens. Because it's fast and quick hahahaha. Jokes Apart. This album has never gotten old. This still smells like teenage spirit, full of pimples and horny! Exactly how I once was.

You know that feeling of not understanding a single word of the song's lyrics? That's the feeling! The only word I understood from the entire album was actually the song title "Obrigado" (which means Thank You) because it's in my native language (Portuguese). But the question is: WHO CARES ABOUT THIS? My body didn't stop moving for a single moment. The instruments are very well played and have a captivating rhythm. It's very similar to another genre of music here in Brazil called "Lambada". And that means that I really felt at home listening to this album.

This is probably the best album of the 2000s. The songs on this album still sound fresh even 18 years later. If I want to show someone older what it means to be young in my generation, I'll show them this album. Plus: A Certain Romance is one of the best songs I've ever heard in my life. The feeling of being inside an old 69 Mustang at 100 miles per hour that this song gives me at its climax is still an indescribable emotion for me.

If my band does an album like joshua's tree, I swear, we're gonna dissapear from earth and be legends forever. But U2 did not. Achtung Baby proves that they never were lazy. They're always trying to bring something new and fresh. Inovating their music. This is not one of my favorite U2 albuns, but certainly is a classic!

I listened to the 1998 remastered version of this album and I honestly can't say if it makes any difference to the original release. But the fact is: This 1956 album seems much better recorded than many from the following decade. The quality of the instrumentals is impressive. I had never heard an album from the 50s of such quality. And what about Sinatra? This man is synonymous with Love Songs. His voice is a landmark of the 40s and 50s that resonates to this day. The romanticism of his interpretations makes me travel to a time I've never been to and think: Where do we human beings go wrong? Where did all this romanticism and emotions go? Did all of this really die back then? I don't know. But this is the sensation conveyed by Sinatra's voice: A journey through time where the world was completely different from the one we live in.

Okay, that's my kind of music. It's impressive how many good albums came out in 1967. It's a year that never ceases to surprise me. I had Buffalo Springfield on my list for a long time and this was a pleasant surprise.

Iggy Pop sounds like a dangerous and sexy version of David Bowie. It seems like everything he sings is really cool. He could be singing about farts. I don't care. He's so cool! I honestly don't know much about his work. I know some songs but I've had some of their albums on my list for some time. It was a pleasant surprise.

If you are going to make a list of at least 15 albums that "you must hear before you die", or "you would take to a desert island", this album has to be on this list. I believe that if an alien from Mars starts studying the history of the human race, at some point he will have to go through What's Going On to understand some things. The song that gives the album its name is also among the best compositions of all time. This isn't even my opinion, it's facts! And the rating cannot be anything other than 5 stars.

Definitely a unique experience. It is not easy to consume this type of material. Especially when there are no lyrics in an album that are almost 2 hours long (I almost didn't have time to listen to it today, for example). But despite it not being an album for casual listening and not really being my type of music, it is very well conceived and produced for an album from the beginning of the 1970s. I'll leave it with 3 stars.

Lennon is probably the reason I'm here today. I probably wouldn't even enjoy music if in the past I hadn't come into contact with his voice and his unique way of writing songs about his feelings in a way that no one else can. Since the Beatles, he has already explored the personal side he imprinted on his songs, but especially in his solo career, like on this album, it is very clear how personal these songs are, which gives the feeling of being extremely real and establishing a direct connection between Lennon and the listener. So it's not uncommon to hear stories from people who claim that "Lennon spoke to me." Lennon put heart and soul into his songs like no one else... Besides, of course, a certain Paul, but that's a story for another day.

This is without a doubt one of the best discoveries I made this year. A true Soul masterpiece. I just keep asking myself (I did my homework) why an album with the importance almost as great as Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On" had never reached my ears, not even through the film that bears the same name . Music never ceases to amaze me!

To my delight, this is the second time this week that I have received an Iggy Pop's album. From the same year! It still sounds dangerous and sexy, but the difference between this album and "The Idiot" is that here now we have excellent compositions from the beginning to the end of the album, including songs like "Lust For Life", "Success", "Neighborhood Threat" and the classic "The Passenger" which I knew from the voice of Siouxsie Sioux. I was very happy to discover that the relationship between Iggy and Bowie wasn't just a figment of my imagination. Bowie in fact produced the album and composed some of the songs. It is possible to notice in the album, some elements of what would become Post Punk and Goth Rock in the future. Even New Wave is possible to notice in the album's sound. My rule is clear: Every album that catches my attention the first time gets 5 stars!

I honestly don't have much to say about the technical aspect of this album's sound. This is very similar to several other records contemporaneous with this one. It comes from England, it sounds alternative, beautiful melodies, heavy sound... Nothing that I haven't heard in the Brit-pop scene of the 90s. But what caught my attention in a curious way, is that throughout the album I I can feel the sensation of coming home, from somewhere far away. And whether you know it or not, the last song on the album is precisely about that. Like I said, I can't say if it was intentional. But if it is, it's an impressive detail.

Listening to an album by the guy who sings "You got a Friend in Me" was one of the most random things that could have happened today. His voice takes me back to peaceful childhood days, free from worries and responsibilities. I feel at home. This album has very interesting songs that deal with heavier and even sad themes. And the interesting thing is that the same voice that sings a song as happy as "Toy Story" can easily adapt to songs that bring other types of feelings.

This is probably the best rap album of all time. At least the best i've heard. The samples are perfect, the voices and the lyrics are perfect and the album got some deep vibe that really makes you trip and chill.

Excellent rap album. Very well recorded, produced and conceived. I had never heard of Missy Elliot, but I loved her voice.

Beautiful and soft melodies. Her voice is as delicate as the touch of a silk sheet. All of this added to the beautiful harmonies that invite you to sit, rest your back and enjoy the winds of a Wednesday afternoon.

They say a divorce can destroy a man's life. Well, as far as I know it wasn't Marvin's ex-wife who shot him, on the contrary, he recorded an entire album about it. As always, everything Marvin touches turns to gold. Another 5-star and error-free album

Do you know what the best part of a 25-minute album is? You can listen to it over and over again hehe! And even more so when it comes to Buddy Holly and the golden age of Rock n roll. It's impossible to hear without moving your hips. That was a great start to Friday!!

It's fascinating that these guys make such strange experiences seem fun and captivating. It completely smells like the 60s!

I Should Coco was an album that was part of my adolescence, but I had never stopped to listen to the other Supergrass albums. I found it impressive that the band found so much musical maturity from one album to the next. The first album is still and always will be a classic, but I really liked this one too!

Road rock from the 70s. Songs to drive at night. Guitar solos and lyrics about life. About being alive. That's definitely my kind of music. Springsteen is one of the artists living on my waiting list. But with the discovery of this album, from now on I'm going to rush to get to know the others in depth.

A good and well produced rap album. Practically instrumental, few lyrics, but with a great vibe. It was a pleasant surprise!

The Smiths is one of my comfort bands and one of my favorites of all time. I know all the songs off the tip of my tongue. It's always a pleasure to listen to The Smiths. Strangeways is an album that I've learned to love a lot over the years and it's a shame that they stopped at that. For me, they were at their technical and artistic peak. But some bands are just like that: They pass through our existence like a comet, a true phenomenon that leaves its mark on anyone who comes into contact with this music. Morrissey, Mars, Joyce and Andy were the voice, heart, pulse and soul of an entire generation!

Definitely not one of my favorite Radiohead albums. But it's always a pleasure to hear Thom Yorke's melancholy voice. I have a very serious problem with the post OK Computer albums released by Radiohead. Albums like this, Kid A, Amnesiac and others, never really appealed to me. But it definitely has its value.

That girl really had the soul of jazz. I don't like to compare albuns, but that one is way more spiritual than Back To Black. Has a different soul. It's more catchy. More engaging. I don't know how to explain it, but it sounds even sexier! Very pleasant surprise

Probably one of the best albums of the 2000s. I've heard a lot during my life about how a true Punk should behave. I heard a lot about how a real Punk should act, what kind of sound he should play, how to play and where to play. But for me, the true identity of Punk is just one: Not to fear! And Green Day is a band that never feared the kind of evil that said Punk shouldn't be pop or conceptual. Because Punk was never afraid of being pop. Punk was never afraid of anything!

It's definitely not my type of music. But it certainly has its value!

Another great rap album that i get from this page. This have been on my list for a long time and today, I finally heard this masterpiece. I honestly ain't got much to say. The Rap and Hip-Hop world it's kinda new to me. But I know how to recognize a hit when a I hear one. And definetely, this album got a lot of them!

The Legend John Lee Hooker. No mistakes here. I always take a step back before I listen to an album full of collabs. I ain't got a good experience with that. But like i said: no mistakes here. C'mon, it's blues! It's JLH! But I'll take a especial note to the first song with Carlos Santana. I really didn't knew that I was in need to hear that! Awesome!

I'm personally a big fan of that fuzz guitar sound that existed in the 90s. Some of my favorite bands have that kind of guitar sound. And honestly, it's very easy to win me over with just that. If it combines pop rock elements: even more so! So in short: I loved it!

It has a kind of 70s sound that I feel was lost in the following decade amidst so many synthesizers and metallic instruments. I'm not saying the 80s sound is bad, just different. But there are some cases where an artist manages to bring back some 1970s aspect to the contemporary sound in an excellent mix. Good examples of this are the albums that Fleetwood Mac released in the 80s: Mirage (1982) and Tango in The Night (1987). And today I just discovered another excellent example. And once again I ask myself: where was I all this time that I never heard of these guys? Prefab Sprout managed to bring to Steve McQueen the musical essence from two different decades, without hiding the fact that it was released in 1985, all bathed in a top quality pop sound. Besides, it's been a while since I've heard of an album with a name as badass as that, seriously, even I wanted to be called Steve McQueen! That's it: I loved it!

Another great album from 1968! I'm very sure that magical things happened this year. The last years of the 60s are at odds with everything that exists when we talk about music, and here it couldn't be any different.

Another beautiful discovery from the 70s. This decade never ceases to amaze me!

A true classic from the 70s. Some of these songs have been part of the soundtrack of my life for years. 5 stars!

Bro, I love the 90s so much! I always end up discovering things like this. I really liked the dynamics between the songs that vary between different emotions from one to another. It has 2 real hits ("Stupid Girl" and "I'm Only Happy When It Rains"). In other words: This is definitely not garbage! Despite the name hahaha

I've been having very bad experiences with the Jazz albums sent to me on this site. So much so that in my summary it says that the genre I like least is Jazz, but that's not true. I just wasn't lucky! Miles Davis is an artist whose name I've heard somewhere but I've never come into contact with his work and I have to say, this is an excellent example that a Jazz album can be fun and entertaining. I don't give it 5 stars because of my philosophy that music should convey a message, even if it's an instrumental album. One of two things: Either I don't know enough about Jazz to understand the message of this album, or there is no message at all. Either way, it's a great album!

Another good album from the 2000s. I really liked the mix between the indie rock sound and elements of R&B. It's also very interesting that the album's sound seems to be at least a decade ahead of its time. Very good discovery!

I have the defect of prejudging an album based on its year of release. I know that there are several examples of good albums from 2010 onwards, but even so, I end up taking a step back. With that in mind and said, this is not a perfect example. I personally don't like those synthetic and almost robotic vocals that permeated the decade. But I recognize that, musically speaking, there is a very good mix between pop and contemporary R&B and hip-hop. All of this stuck together in a kind of Lo-fi vibes with lyrics. I really liked the instrumental part, but it's not something I'll choose to listen to on a Saturday night while enjoying a good whiskey. No! But it's an excellent background to spend the night with some friends, playing Minecraft!

I became a huge fan of Steely Dan this year a few months ago when the site sent me Pretzel Logic. I was instantly swept off my feet by the first lulls of Rikki Don't Lose That Number. So to sum it up well: I'm totally into them! It's my kind of music, no mistakes! It's the kind of 70's road rock band that I've been looking for for a long time. I thought I had already seen all the good ones, but now in 2024 I am blessed with Steely Dan. And this review of mine has nothing to do with the album itself. I just wanted to say thank you to this site! 5 Stars!

I feel 15 years old again! Some of Aerosmith's songs are immortalized in my life and it was a pleasant surprise to re-listen to Toys in The Attic. Classics like Walk The Line and Sweet Emotion were part of the soundtrack of my adolescence and I still get goosebumps listening to them today. Easy 5 Stars!

Initially I was very excited about the fact that it was the third day in a row that an album from the 70s came to me. This decade is actually my favorite. So I googled the album and discovered it was Experimental Rock. Not only that. It's one of the precursors of Krautrock, which I had never come into contact with before. I figured it would be good to start exploring the genre by drinking straight from the CAN. Jokes. But anyway. It was an excellent discovery. The album follows a psychedelic line, almost kissing progressive rock, but leaving experimentalism in evidence. I've had experiences with experimental albums before and I have to say, they weren't very good. But here it is not the case. Experimental sounds have to be strange and dissonant in themselves, but on this record, despite following this rule, everything sounds very cohesive! Nice surprise, I'll leave 4 stars.

The genius, Zappa! Previously, in the past, I tried to get in touch with Zappa's work. I heard, if I'm not mistaken, Joe Garage, I don't remember the year (guess it was realeased in 79). Anyway. It wasn't a good experience at the time. I was around 15 or 16 years old and as I gained musical maturity, getting to know new genres and sharpening my ears as a musician, I had in my mind that it was just a matter of time before I heard Zappa once again and then I would have a good experience. I was fucking right! It's truly different from anything I've ever heard, and at the same time it's everything I've ever heard before. I still need to process it properly because musicality like this cannot be processed in mind overnight. So I'll just leave 5 stars and walk away confused for a while...

To be honest, when I read that it was a post-punk album from the mid 80s, I already imagined the kind of thing similar to "The Cure" or "Siouxsie and The Banshees" (bands I really love) but Maybe it was a very gothic ideal thought I have regarding Post-punk in general. So I tried to neutralize myself when listening to this album and to my surprise, I was VERY wrong! The album moves in a more Iggy Pop direction and even reminds me a little of American punk-rock bands like X (los angeleeees). There's even a bit of rockabilly in the mix, which made me very happy. Anyway, one more album that proves two things: 1. Post Punk is one of my favorite genres 2. I'm very easy to please! I don't even remember the last time I gave an album less than 4 stars! Aaaah may it continue like this!

Yesterday I said that I didn't remember the last time I gave less than 4 stars to an album here on this site. Me and my big mouth! I don't really like Synth Pop, at least not as a form of entertainment in itself. It works more for me as a background for anything else I'm doing, especially in the early hours of the morning. So as not to seem like I'm voting solely in the name of my personal taste, I want to highlight that the synthesized vocals and all this plasticized production are not a positive point in the slightest. In fact, it can even be boring and tiring to listen to. But like I said, it works well as a background and I'll probably use these songs on my Minecraft nights!

You know when a song hits you in a totally different way and you start to have familiar, comforting feelings? That's what happened today. I knew the name Robbie Williams, because I've been a huge fan of Oasis and the Gallagher brothers since I was a teenager, and apparently they didn't get along very well in the late 90s, trading public barbs and shit. And like the stupid fan I was, I wore an Oasis shirt as if it were a football team and I've never heard a single Robbie song to this day, at least as far as I know, and I'll explain why. There is a Brazilian forró band called "Nostalgia do Forró" that recorded a Portuguese version of Angels, which I listened to exhaustively when I was a child. So the moment Angels started playing, it was like coming home, to simpler days and away from problems. Other than that, all the prejudices I had regarding Robbie died today listening to this album. This is more than enough reason to give 5 stars!

Glam Rock's ground zero. This is one of the albums that you can listen to over and over again without getting bored. Get it On is a must on every 70s classic playlist!

Another album that proves that the 1970s is my favorite. It's not a perfect album, nor an album that I'll listen to every day, but it's very comfortable to listen to and I could play it all day and I wouldn't get sick of it. I'll leave 4 stars!

This was probably ground zero for Goth Rock. One of the most disconcerting albums in rock history. But still a timeless classic!

Easy 5 stars! I love everything that Bowie did in the 70s. Especially this one! I used to play Life On Mars on my earphones going to school years ago, definetely one of the songs of my life and idk, i spend years without listen this one and it seems a lot better than I used to remember. Actually the intire album is givin me this fellin now. I guess that musical maturity finally came to me hahahaha.

Another artist leaving my waiting list today! Not to lie, I heard Purple Rain a few years ago and I remember being ecstatic and euphoric with this record. For this reason, I already knew that Prince was this eccentric, extravagant and powerful artist. So I went to listen to 1999 with great expectations and was honored with the satisfaction of all of them. This is probably the sexiest album I've ever heard in my life (it competes very well with Marvin Gaye's Let's Get It On), it even gets pornographic at times. The sound quality is impeccable and, once again, Prince's vocals left me entranced and breathless. I'm not a person who likes to dance, but there's no way I can sit still and listen to this. The album suffers a little from the excessive length of the tracks. I think some of the 7 minute songs could be more compact. Apart from that, the album is perfect and was a pleasant surprise!

Today I'm going to do one of the most complicated album reviews I've ever had to do. The time has come to clearly separate what is good music and my personal taste. I never bothered to do this before because I'm not a music critic, just a music lover. Indian music is not one of my favorites. Obviously, as a big Beatles fan that I am, I am very familiar with the name Ravi Shankar and the sound of his sitar. The entire album felt like a hyper-extended version of Within You Without You. But the album fulfills its purpose perfectly. Just as the title of the first song announces, the entire album is like an initial experience for anyone who doesn't know Indian music, a true introductory performance. One fact I would like to highlight is that Ravi is really good at playing the sitar. Everything I knew about this instrument came from George Harrison's songs and it was an extraordinary experience to hear the sound of an expert! In the end, I ended up really liking the album, even though it's not something I'll listen to every day, I feel like this experience brought me something very positive! I will leave an honest 4 star review.

Very good! Excellent rock album from 2000s. Still sounds fresh even after 20 years!

Great discovery! As I usually say: Punk fears nothing! Punk is not afraid of being pop, much less making songs without guitars or with almost no distortion. On the contrary, Punk is purely attitude! And this album has that. I would like to highlight the bassist's work on this album. It's been so long since I've been so excited about the sound of an instrument. Speaking of excitement, I must have listened to this album about 4 times in a row today. I really liked it a lot and it was definitely one of the best discoveries this year! 5 stars!

If I had to summarize what Stevie Wonder is in a single word, it would be "Joy", because that's what he brings us. Once again, the 70s. Just like Bowie, everything Stevie released at that time was a masterpiece. I wanted to highlight the song Bird Of Beauty where Stevie sings in Portuguese (Brazil Mentioned!). Anyway, it is truly an honor to live on the same planet as this genius! Every time Stevie appears, it will be 5 stars automatically!

Another good discovery I made thanks to this site. And this time, this album comes straight from the most psychedelic year in music history. 1967: what a year!

Another good rap album from the 90s. Pleasant surprise!

C O double M O to the N! 2 rap albums in a row, check it out! I loved the samples used in this album. It has a very pleasant vibe to listen to. I had a very wrong idea about rap and hip-hop albums from the 2000s, but this one is making me change that view a little. Nice surprise!

Today we have a classic! There's not much to say about Nevermind that hasn't already been said by millions over the 33 years since it was released. I mean, this album is where it all started for me and a lot of people. I can't imagine being the person I am now without having listened to Nevermind when I was younger. But one thing is for sure: This album hasn't aged a single day! Still smells like teen spirit to this day.

Road trip songs! Yeah! My type of music. Don't have much to say. I'll leave 4 stars.

There's something very special about this album and I can't say exactly what it is. Whether it's the extremely sentimental sound or the lyrics with deep themes... I don't know. But I really liked this one a lot. Fun Fact: I haven't seen Harry Potter in almost 10 years, and when I read that the closing track plays in one of the films I was like "Ah shit, I'm going to have to watch Harry Potter again" hahaha

Everyone who hasn't been living under a rock for the last 2 years has heard of Kate Bush because of the show Stranger Things. No wonder, Running Up That Hill is a great song and Kate Bush is one of the most original singers to have ever appeared. But I'm not sure if I was able to properly digest the work done on The Dreaming. The feeling I have is that something is missing. Maybe it's something I'll come across throughout her discography, but while The Dreaming isn't something I'll listen to every day, it definitely has its value. I'm going to leave 3 stars today, but maybe that rating will change over time.

BRAZIL MENTIONED!! I know that Stan Getz is not Brazilian. But he did everything for it. In addition to the legendary album recorded with João Gilberto (which displaced the Beatles' A Hard Day's Night from #1 in the charts, suck it) there is also this one with Charlie Byrd. And these two albums together helped to spread the music of my homeland throughout the world. What rating other than 5 stars could I give, right?

Adele's Prime! It seems like yesterday that the songs from this album exploded all over the world. But on the contrary, it has been more than a decade. I grew up listening to Adele's songs. It's part of the soundtrack of my life. I say again, just as I did in the 25 review, that this is the greatest singer of this century. Her songs will echo forever!

This is the first Rap/Hip-Hop album I heard in my life, when I was 16 years old. I discovered "It Was a Good Day" while playing GTA: San Andreas in a video game many years ago, and that led me to want to know more about this world of Rap. For the record, Rap/Hip-Hop, Soul, Jazz and Funk were not part of my life until then. I have my roots coming from Rock n' Roll, Blues and music from my country, Brazil (Samba, Forró, Baião, Bossa Nova, Sertanejo). I remember exactly the feeling of listening to this album for the first time. The album starts with an intro that immediately gives away what the mood of the album will be and then it becomes one of the heaviest (if not the heaviest) songs I've ever heard in my life. "When Will They Shoot?" It doesn't owe anything to a Trash Metal song from the 80s when we talk about weight. To this day I consider this the best Rap album I've ever heard and Ice Cube is still my favorite Rapper, and that probably won't change anytime soon hahaha. So now, many years later, I see that The Predator is in fact one of the most influential albums on my musical taste, because thanks to the songs on this album and the samples, I discovered artists like The Isley Brothers, Wilson Pickett and later, several other Soul music artists from the 60s and 70s such as Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin and many others. Not to mention that now, I have a completely open mind to Rap/Hip-Hop, knowing from this album, artists like Snoop Dog, Dre, 2Pac, Too $hort, NWA and many others. Damn, I had no idea how important this album was going to be in my life. Anyway, it was great to be able to remember this album today!!

One of the easiest 5-star ratings I've ever given. Absolute classic! I don't have much to say. Tom Sawyer was one of the anthems of my adolescence, XYZ is one of my favorite instrumental songs and Limelight is beautiful! In fact, all 7 songs are absolute classics. Probably one of the best albums in history.

It was very fun to listen to it! Another good hip-hop album coming from this site :)

This is the second Kate Bush album that I have received from this site in a short period of time. In the review of The Dreaming I had said that I needed time to properly digest the songs on that album. Some time passed and things got better. Of course, the fact that today we have an album that starts with one of the best songs of the 80s (Running Up That Hill) helps a lot to get into the mood. Even though it sounds dissonant with reality, the depth she reaches with her voice and her lyrics are extremely real and genuine, apart from the fact that the album's sound is based on the best of the 80s. Today I'm going to give 4 stars, again, with the possibility of giving 5 next time ahaha!

No Shit! Another Hip-Hop album? That must be the third time in the week! But that's ok cause this one is good too.

now, THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!! I had already heard some things by Sly & The Family Stone separately on the Soul & Funk playlists I listen to, but I had never listened to an entire album before. It was something that had been on my list for a long time and it was a pleasant surprise to be able to experience this iconic musical group!

What a way to start the week, huh? This is one of my favorite albums from the second half of the 70s (yes, I have to separate this decade into two to talk about my favorite albums without forgetting any). I'm not into celebrity culture, but if I was, I'd probably be a crazy Debbie Harry's groupie!

There are some great songs on this record, but I'm not sure they work well together as an album. Experiencing the album as a whole gives a disjointed feeling between the songs, even though the sound and content of the songs are very good. I will leave 3 stars today.

Very cool! I had never heard an Afro-Cuban Jazz album before, but I can imagine a lot of songs that I know that draw from the source of this album. It's basically Jazz with insane Latin percussions; I loved it!

Okaaay. So we have classic today! This is the proof that it ain't need to fill an album with bunch of songs to be great. In here, we only got 5. 4 classics and 1 weird cousin (moon child it's coo coo). But the album is fantastic!

Pink Floyd is probably my favorite band. If it's not, it's one of them. And absolutely everything that appears from them here on this site (at least between 1970 and 1994) will receive automatic 5 stars. Anyway, there's nothing I can say without sounding like a crazy fanboy. So I'm going to shut my mouth and give silent thanks that today's album is Wish You Were Here!

A 2000s classic!! Got some good memories with Seven Nation Army from the time I was learning how to play guitar. Good Album!

This was an interesting discovery. An album that really needs to be felt to be understood. Fun Fact: This album isn't on Spotify (at least not in my country) so I had to turn to YouTube and luckily I found it. There I had the opportunity to read the comments section and I wanted to highlight one of them here: "A very special album. I revisit this every few years - it is it's own universe."

S E X !!! This is probably my favorite Marvin Gaye's album. I think that never in the history of music has anyone managed to communicate and convey the sensations of... you know what, like Marvin did on this record. About the title track, a renowned Brazilian journalist once said: "...it presents such an engaging atmosphere that I have no doubt that 1/3 of children born since that year on the planet have been conceived to the sound of the song."

They sound like coitus interruptus! A premature ejaculation. Although they have a lot of potential good songs and some good ideas, they are completely wasted, because you can't just fill an album with a bunch of one and a half minute songs and think that's cool. Other than that, they actually sound cool at times, and for that reason alone I won't give them the slightest rating. 2 stars.

So we had the King today! There are a lot of things that can be said about BB King, his songs and his legendary guitar licks, played by the equally legendary Lucille Guitar. But what I wanted to highlight about this album, is precisely the fact that it is live. The interaction with the audience and the stories he tells between songs (sometimes even during the song) give an impressive feeling of immersion, apart from the fact that this type of interaction between audience and artist no longer happens nowadays. BB King and the audience are almost talking to each other, as if they were at a Sunday barbecue sitting around a bar table. A very intimate atmosphere! Love it, 5 stars!

Another Great Rap/Hip-Hop album from this site! I really liked the samples on this one!

So we got the Shankar's daughter today! She's a great singer and this is a really good album! 4 stars.

Interesting discovery. Very good!

Neil Young, a living legend! One of the biggest shames I have as a musician and music lover is never having explored this icon's discography in depth. Of course, the most famous albums from the 70s have been part of the soundtrack of my life for a long time, but here today is an album that I had never heard of before. And I really don't want to say anything about the record. Nana not today. I just want to sit my ass down in the chair and listen to this record over and over again and reflect on where I was and what I was doing all these years for me to have never heard this masterpiece before. So if you'll excuse me... (5 stars, of course)

This is probably the most difficult album to review in just one paragraph. There is so much, so much details that can be said about these songs, that it would be enough to write a book. Pet Sound is huge! Absolutely everything about this album is simply huge! It captures the entire essence of the deepest human feelings, from genuine joy (Wouldn't It Be Nice) to deep sadness (Caroline, No), passing through and addressing themes such as loneliness and emptiness (That's Not Me, I Just Wasn't Made For This Times) and even the greatest of feelings of love, represented by one of the most perfect songs that human beings have ever made: God Only Knows! Like I said, a book would easily be written if I were to say everything I think about this album. Long Live to the Genius Brian Wilson!

Kraftwerk had been on my list for a long time so I was very happy to know that today would be the day to try one of their albums. I know they must have sounded very innovative at the time with that sound, but I don't think this record has aged so well. My main criticism of this album is that it doesn't grab you. You can test things, bring innovative sounds, recording techniques never seen before, but it's no use if you can't connect with those who listen. I didn't research it but I believe this is a work from the very beginning of Kraftwerk's career and although I criticize it, I give full credit to the band for these innovative experimentalisms and I hope to see more of this on the next albums but of course, I hope it is more attractive. I'll leave 3 stars.

I'm not going to lie, this one was pretty boring. It has its moments but overall it's pretty boring.

I had never heard Cheap Trick before (although the name was familiar) and mind you, that's why the 70s is my favorite, because albums like that come out every day and even though I don't know these songs, I had so much fun listening to them, which makes me very suspicious to speak and give notes, as they will almost always be good reviews and high star marks. But what to do, right? Rock n' Roll can't go wrong! The only song I actually knew was the beautiful cover of Ain't That a Shame, which I had already heard by John Lennon's voice (and which until today I didn't know it was a Fats Domino's song). At the beginning of 'Surrender' (which is apparently their most popular song) he says "this song is the opening song to our latest album which was released this week" I felt like I was in a time machine, like I was actually there 46 years ago. By the way, great choice of place to do a show. The Japanese women are hysterical and scream at the top of their lungs the entire show! hahaha

I listen to many albums every day throughout the years and what most of these albums have in common is that almost all of them are from a time that I didn't live through. But there was a specific period in my life, when I was in high school, when everything seemed more intense and albums like I Should Coco were part of my experience of what it was like to live at that time. I really lived intensely the things and people of my time and albums like this, Stone Roses, some by Oasis, Primal Scream are albums that connect me directly with that era every time I listen to them. I can smell the hormones, the cheap drinks, the crazy parties... Yes, there is a feeling of nostalgia, but I'm glad that this time has passed, and when I want to remember those good times, I Should Coco and Supergrass will be there. always available!

Very good rock album! I would like to highlight the great mix of classic rock n' roll with House Music and the good songs: Take Your Mama, Tits On The Radio, Filthy/Gorgeous and the interesting cover of Comfortably Numb.

I'm coming back from a night of drinking, I'm completely hungover. There was no better time to listen to a Willie Nelson album! I mean, I feel like I'm in heaven, shit, I threw up during September Song, it was just beautiful!

That's a hell of a way to start a Monday!! The lendary Rock n' Roll Star: Jerry Lee Lewis! Hell Yeah! That's my type of music, no mistakes here. 5 stars!

Nice album! Always good to hear Alex Turner's voice. There's some real good song in it!

Great rap album! Cypress Hill is one of the classics of the early 90s! I grew up listening to How I Could Just Killed Man, as it was played on GTA SA radio stations hahaha so yes, this is all very familiar to me. I'll leave 4 stars.

Everyone who hasn't been under a rock for the last 26 years has heard The Rockefeller Skank. The album is cool, but it's not my type of music. I'll leave 3 stars!

Yeah! That's my kind of music! I really liked his voice. I'll leave 4 stars.

I love it when this site sends me an album that I have in my collection, because it encourages me to dust off all of them hahaha. Anyway, Beatles, right? 5 Automatic Stars activated! You can go away, there's no review, it's Beatles! You don't need one. Just kidding. This is probably the best early Beatles album and probably one of the best film soundtrack albums of all time. It was the album that opened the doors of the world wide open and said "We are the best band on the planet!". I wanted to highlight the title track for one simple reason: how many songs do you know that can be easily recognized by the first chord at the beginning? It's as if the music stole that chord for itself, so much so that if you play it (if you're a musician) in any other context in your life, you'll immediately remember A Hard Day's Night! Fun fact: I watched Paul Mcartney in December 2023 here in Brazil, and he opened the show with Can't Buy Me Love and I was curious to notice how a song that I've heard since I was a child still gives me the same chills that I felt the first time. Seeing Paul sing that day was like watching my entire life flash before my eyes! Anyway, like I said, Automatic 5 stars!

I don't usually give 5 stars to an album I heard for the first time, but today it happened, once again, that immediate connection that music gives me from time to time (I've been very lucky, because here on this site, this has happened a few times ) and it reminds me of the principles of everything: why I started listening to the albums on this site, why I listen and make music every day and why I love music so much. I feel really lucky! I already knew Steve because of Higher Love, but after this album today, I will definitely get to know his work in more depth!

Heavy Metal's Ground Zero!! Today was the day to dust off another CD from my collection and listen to this masterpiece! I confess that I don't know how to listen to Black Sabbath in moderation because when I listen, I play 3 or 4 consecutive albums. That's what happened today. I started with the first one, then I dusted off the Paranoid CD, then I pulled out Master Of Reality... My speakers were burning out! It's not every day that I listen to Black Sabbath, but when I do, so my neighbors! hahaha Anyway, today was a great day, it was good to remember these wonderful albums!

That was very, very boring! I understand the concept of an ambient sound album, but the atmosphere created in these tracks is as enthusiastic as a half-hour recording of just my farts.

BRAZIL MENTIONED!! Elis is arguably the greatest female singer in my country of all time! Hearing her voice is a blessing! This album has great songs and can be considered an excellent introduction to Elis's discography. I was very happy to have received this album today. Elis Regina is a pride of Brazil!

It had everything to be a good Post Punk album, but the vocalist gives me the impression that he is eternally falling down a staircase while singing! Although the instrumentals are very good, it was painful to listen to until the end. I'll leave 2 stars.

A New Wave classic: The Pretenders debut! Some of the songs on this album are eternal classics like "Tattooed Love Boys" and "Brass in Pocket". Although the album has some low moments, it's still a great debut album and one of the most important New Wave albums of the 80s. I'll give it 4 stars!

By far much better than the album I previously heard from Brian Eno, because its actually music ya know hahahaha. No jokes, Music for Airports was a disaster, but this one was cool. It still hasn't won me over sonically speaking. But there are some very good songs here. I'll leave 3 stars!

This album has some very good songs, however I feel that some of them were wasted thanks to the bad guitar work on some of them. The singer's voice is very similar to Iggy Pop's (it's probably him, right? I haven't looked at the wiki) and the lyrics are good. Although it is overall a good album, it didn't impress me much. I'll leave 3 stars!

Since this site sent me Pretzel Logic a few months ago, I have become a huge fan of Steely Dan and his records have become part of my listening routine. And of course, their debut album is also part of this description. It has some really good songs, some really wonderful ones and also one of the best songs of the 70s: Reelin' In The Years which, after just a few plays, has already entered my select playlist of my favorite type of music: Road Trip Songs! Not just any song I put on this playlist. It took about 10 years to put together 50 songs and this year alone, Steely Dan released two including Rikki Don't loose that Number which was also one that won me over immediately! Anyway, I don't have much else to say about this album. I just have to thank this site for introducing me to this wonderful band! Another very easy 5 stars!

I really don't know what to feel about this one. There diferent rythms and sounds like some kind of collage idk... I really can't say if it's good or bad, but I really didn't feel it right. I'll leave 2 stars.

Uh! Some smooth hip hop album. I like the samples on this one and the vibes too, but didn't impress me much. I'll leave 3 stars.

Definitely one of the best naps of my life!

A certain Brazilian musician once said that in music "You have to be gentle as a lamb and quick as a rattlesnake". I couldn't find a better phrase to define the perfect mix between subtlety and lightness that exudes from this album. All the instruments are very well intertwined, as if they were tied with a sailor's rope. Everything is very subtle and fast, which makes me believe that this is one of the most sonically sophisticated albums I've ever heard from the 60s. Although the instrumentals are perfect, that's all! I have a rule that makes me never give an instrumental album full 5 stars, as I believe that vocals are a vital part of the connection between the artist and the listener. Be it the simplest vocals to the most orgasmic screams in the style of Pink Floyd's The Great Gig In the Sky, vocals are essential on any album, even if it has instrumental tracks. However, I'm going to leave this stupid rule of mine aside for a day, because everything I said will fall apart in front of this album. 5 Stars!

Today we have a progressive classic! This album has been on my list for about 8 or 9 years when I was discovering Progressive Rock. However, I don't remember exactly why, I was exhausted by this type of music and ended up forgetting to listen to some of the albums that were on that list. But the day finally arrived and it is with regret that I say that it didn't impress me as I thought it would. The sound is fantastic, but tiring at some points. The sound is really ahead of its time, but I don't think it has aged very well. Although the album focuses on the sound of instruments, at some points the lack of vocals is really felt. Despite the flaws, the sound synergy is fantastic. I'm going to leave 4 stars today.

My kind of music! Good rock album to do a road trip. I didn't know that Steve Winwood and Jim Capaldi came out of this band. No wonder that's so good! I knew Steve from his solo song Higher Love (on the soundtrack of GTA V) and Jim from a cover of a Brazilian song called "Anna Julia" (very popular here) with the participation of George Harrisson. It was a good surprise and i'll leave 5 stars.

I heard someone say once that Lady Soul is Aretha Franklin in her prime... and I was like, and when the hell wasn't she in her prime? Easy 5 stars for the greatest singer of all time!

It is possible to see several elements of what would become Linkin Park in the 2000s on this album, no wonder Korn is one of the giants of Nu Metal. It's not my type of music but it's not bad.

Excellent! I loved the guitar work on this record. It's a great debut album and very pleasurable to listen to.

This is a great jazz album

First of all: Stevie is an automatic 5 stars! Innervisions is one of Stevie's albums that I've heard the least from this golden period between 68-85 but it's still a masterpiece (and one that I'll listen to more frequently from now on). I really like the psychedelic vibe of some of the tracks, which gives the album a unique sound, but without losing the funky & soul style characteristic of Stevie's albums. The difference between Innervisions and the other albums from this period released by Stevie in the first half of the 70s is that here we have an obvious high point between the songs and it is called Higher Ground. This song completely differs from the others as it is a tremendous Funk & Soul hit. One moment you're listening to the fresh breeze of Innervisions' tracks and suddenly you take a break to riff on Higher Ground and then return to normal programming. As much as it may seem like it was randomly placed in the middle of the album, the song doesn't interfere at all (quite the opposite) with the vibe of the album, much less its maximum rating of 5 stars.

I'll tell you what: all hip hop albuns should sound like that!

It's not an easy-listen album. At first it seems like a set of good ideas lazily wasted, but little by little, as the songs progress, the sound takes you on a really cool journey. The big problem is that at some points it is very tiring, which cancels out any kind of replay factor that the album may have. I'll leave 3 stars!

The legend Ray Charles! No mistakes and nothing to talk about here. 5 stars!

Until 2021, I had never heard of Simple Minds until one fine day a taxi driver wearing fluorescent glasses and a button-down shirt half-open revealing a hairy chest passed by the street where I work, driving his taxi slowly playing Don't You Forget About Me at the last volume that car stereo could emit. Since then, this song and those from the album Once Upon a Time have been a must-have in my daily playlists. However, I had never heard another album besides this one and it was a pleasant surprise to discover that even 3 years before the band's Big Hit Album, they already sounded in this spectacular way, a very characteristic 80s sound, but of course, without all those big hits with the exception of the first track. Anyway, I loved it! I'll leave 4 stars!

I really don't like this kind of music. Although it has its value, it doesn't really tell me anything.

Nice country album. Highway songs, my kind of music. Love it!

Rolling Stones between 1968 and 81 is an automatic 5 stars! Rock n' roll has always been about breaking the rules. In 68, while the Rock world was immersed in psychedelia, The Stones released an album filled with country songs and acoustic guitars. All this, of course, without leaving aside the good old Rock n' Roll that they still carry to this day, featured in tracks like Street Fighting Man and the iconic Sympathy for the Devil! Charlie Watts is a God!

It's not my type of music. For many years I had a very negative image of Justin Timberlake because for me he represents the epitome of this disgusting celebrity culture that exists today (from the 2000s to now). But I'd be lying if I said this album was bad. I'd be lying if I said that at certain moments I wasn't grooving to the songs. At certain moments, Justin's voice (which for me is the highest point of the album's sound) tries to imitate the vocal mannerisms of the late Michael Jackson, of course, with due proportions, this is just a mere influence, and not a copy. But even with these qualities, the album sounds very tiring. The experience I had with this album was as if I had gone running in the street. 1 hour later I'm tired of it and now I want to take a nap.

"I like my music like I enjoy sex: Fast and quick!" Hahaha Good Punk Rock album!

Bowie's last dance I was almost 15 when Bowie died. At that time the only thing I knew about him was the Aladin Sane cover (as recognizable as a plate of rice and beans) and I definitely wasn't ready for this album at the time. But I remember seeing the Lazarus video and thinking "This is Bowie dying" Today, 8 years later, having explored the entire discography and having Bowie as one of my main artistic influences, I can feel what Blackstar is. I can see that this was a beautiful ending worthy of a legend!

Okay. That was boring.

Splendid! It is the second Leonard Cohen album that I have listened to through this site. Both from different eras (1967 and 2016) and it is clear that even though there are so many years of difference from one to the other, this introspective vibe that is brought out in the sound and especially in his voice, has not dissipated, quite the opposite. Speaking of his voice, in this 2016 album, it is much darker (as the name of the album suggests) a style that apparently was adopted by Leonard throughout his career and that manages to convey unique emotions to the lyrics of the songs in such a way which makes me think that no one else could be singing these songs but himself. I will repeat, splendid!

The legend Bob Marley! Here's an artist who has been on my list for a long time. Not that Bob wasn't very familiar to me. Because anyone who never heard Three Little Birds or One Love in the last 5 decades was certainly living in the catacombs where Judas lost his boots. The album contrasts with the mainstream super productions of the time. While hard rock bands were exploring the weight of the most distorted guitars, progressive bands were extracting as much revolutionary sound effects from another world as the studios and technologies of the time could put into their songs, Bob Marley and The Wailers arrived bringing a completely different vibe, with its relaxed grooves, and lyrics that, despite being politicized, also spoke of peace and in fact brought peace to those who listened and listen to this day. Bob Marley is one of those pop culture icons that is hard to believe actually lived on the same planet as us and joins other names like John Lennon, Jimi Hendrix and others, in a group of legends that change the history of music and the world.

The Who is one of my favorite bands ever. I've been listening to this for years. And before I start writing too much (which I tend to do a lot) I'm just going to highlight the only thing that should be said about this album and the emergence of The Who in the mid-60s. Who came with the British invasion. They played the same pop rock as other bands at the time. The lyrics of the songs talked about the same things as the songs of the time. But then I ask myself: what makes The Who a special band? What makes them stand out from the rest? Simple! There's a crazy lunatic behind the drums! Keith Moon doesn't play a single song like a normal drummer. A level of madness builds up and reaches its peak in the last track "The Ox" and all of this makes the album nothing more than a great introduction to the craziest and most talented drummer who ever lived. When I hear comparisons with John Bonham, I usually make a modern analogy in relation to football. Keith Moon is like Messi, and John Bonham is like CR7. Both genius, great and talented, but their talents come from different places.

Nothing convinces me that Mark's guitar wasn't a member and leader of this band. This bad little girl did the solos, provided the rhythm and even shared the vocals with Mark. The licks on Down On The Waterline are a perfect foreshadowing of what will come later on in the album. A sequence of spectacular jams that leads to the masterpiece Sultans Of Swing, which is very similar to classical music in the way it induces the listener to pay attention to the smallest details of the song. Especially this bad little girl who made her name in the history of rock n roll in the two solos of this song. Anyway, a hell of a debut album!

Sheer Heart Attack is one of the Queen albums I've listened to the least and I don't know exactly why. I believe it was due to the lack of big hits like the subsequent albums, my teenage head didn't have the patience for the band's first 3 albums. Today I realize that it was a huge mistake. I was recently revisiting Queen's discography, which I hadn't listened to in a while. I felt I needed to do this because Queen was the first Rock band I ever heard when I was 10 years old, so I felt I needed this moment of nostalgia with myself. In fact, Sheer Heart Attack is the best of the first 3 albums. It counts Killer Queen and Brighton Rock as its main hits and I think the main characteristic that can be noted here is precisely the factor that makes Queen a different band from the others: Freddie Mercury, obviously. Without Freddie, Queen is an excellent hard rock band. With Freddie, Queen is one of the biggest and most spectacular bands of all time. That said, the main sound characteristic of this album is precisely this contrast between the heavy sound of an excellent Hard rock band, with the fierce and imposing subtlety of Freddie Mercury's voice. Anyway, Queen between 1974 and 1986 (with the exception of Flash Gordon and Hot Space) have my automatic 5 stars!

What a great way to start a Monday! It's not the first time that Aretha Franklin has appeared here. First Chains Of Fools and now Never Loved a Man. There is nothing more that can be said on this subject. She's the best of soul, she's the greatest singer of all time! The only comment that I will, in fact, repeat, will be the old saying that says that Aretha between the second half of the 60s and the first half of the 70s was at her peak... and my comment about that is the following: When hell wasn't she at her peak?

This kind of music just doesn't make sense to me. I mean, it's kinda cool sometimes but it looks like some background music of some car parts shop.

A very interesting experience. It really surprises me that an experimental and progressive album like this was released in the 90s with such a 1970s atmosphere! Very good!

A classic from the 2000s! I discovered this album a couple of months ago thanks to a recommendation from a friend and I loved it.

Some say that this is the best live album in the history of Rock n' Roll. I can't say anything. I'm not an expert on this. But I know one thing. Few things in this world can be as exciting as the original lineup of The Who live. I heard someone say once that the members of The Who are all solo. Keith Moon is a solo drummer. John was a solo bassist. Roger was the singer. And Pete was a damn guitarist. Keith beat the drums at the speed of a Formula 1 car and with the strength of a steam locomotive. John beautifully walks his bass lines through the harmony of the song in the most free way possible. Roger sings the verses with the delicate voice of an angel and the ferocity of a lion. and Pete designs spectacular solos and riffs underneath it all! Everyone was doing their part, in very different ways, but everyone was working for the common good of music. They made Rock concerts sound like real spectacles! And there were only 4 guys...

I must believe that this isn't even music.

Silence in the studio! Björk is doing Music N°2 It looks like an 1 hour long Revolution 9 with lyrics but it ain't bad. It's good in a strange way.

A grunge classic! I hadn't listened to this album in years. I'm happy to see that it's an album that has aged very well. Them Bones is one of the songs I listened to most when I was a teenager.

A very weak Hip-Hop album. Waste of good musical ideas, stupid superficial lyrics and ridiculous use of autotune. The sequence of tracks matched absolutely everything I hate in music.

They sound like The Doors if they were a Punk Rock band and had a bassist! Really nice album. They sound very clean and the songs are fun to listen

I have a report to make. I woke up a little sick this morning, but I still decided to play today's album. The album finished a few seconds ago and now I feel much better. I don't know if this has anything to do with the songs, but one thing is a fact: Bruce Springsteen's songs have a very special way of touching the heart. I had little contact with Bruce's work (everything I heard from him was thanks to this site) and even then they were albums from the 70s. Listening now to an album from 2002, I can see that his voice and melodies have aged like wine. My type of music: 5 stars (out of curiosity, today I discovered the term Heartland Rock. Apparently the type of music I like most, it had that name all the time hahaha)

A little better than the previous one I listened to. Two Kanye albums in the same week is torture...

ANGER - THE ALBUM I hadn't listened this album in years. Killing In The Name Of was one of the songs I listened to most when I was a teenager. Time when I woke up in the morning, drank my coffee and went to fight the system (skip class)

Love Rod Stewart!! Any album that fits with a road trip is an automatic 5 stars to me.

In 2018, a friend of mine recommended this album to listen to, but I ended up not paying much attention to it at the time and ended up putting the album on my eternal waiting list until today. As soon as I finish writing this review, I'm going to give him a huge scolding: "WHY DIDN'T YOU INSIST MORE ON ME TO LISTEN TO THIS ALBUM?" Musically speaking, it is a top quality alternative rock album! It's energetic when it needs to be energetic, it's soft when it needs to be soft, everything, absolutely everything on this album is precisely in the right proportion, including the voices, instruments, volumes, production, everything! Without any fear, I give it a 5 star rating!

Very good album I really liked the psychedelic aspects of this album’s sound. It's great to hear something like this outside of the 60s. 4 Stars!

A very creative album. I liked the experimental sounds used in the songs without making the whole thing look weird. 3 stars

It's always a good day to listen to The Doors!! The first time I listened to this album, it was celebrating 50 years since its original release. And this is an album that I can perfectly imagine myself listening to when it turns 100.

How badass do you have to be to perform in prison, intimidate and gain the admiration of inmates? Simple answer: You have to be Johnny Cash!

How had I never heard of these guys before? They sound like a mix of Rolling Stones and CCR. 70s, right? There's no error. That's my kind of music. Every time I think I've heard everything about this decade, I'm always surprised! 5 stars of course.

Amazing is the word that describes this album. Amazing voice, amazing sound... I'm sorry but today I'm speechless...

Excellent Album!! Hearing the sound quality of a 90s album playing top quality rock n' roll is a true delight! The songs are energetic, vibrant and alive! I Love It! 5 Stars

As Dwayne Johnsson once said: "It's the biggest piece of dog shit that I've ever heard" The album is tiring and boring. No matter how technical and innovative the sound may be, if it doesn't create connections with the listener, none of it makes sense. I'm gonna leave 2 stars today.

This must be the third Beatles album to appear here and as I said before: Anything by the Beatles is automatically a 5-star rating! After all, the Beatles were my first love. It was how I learned to listen to and love music. However, this album has a special place in my heart. It was one of the first albums I listened to from start to finish in my life, at a time when I had just discovered that the best way to consume music is through albums. If I search my memory, I can tell a different story involving each of the songs on this album. Leaving aside the emotional memory for a moment, there is nothing wrong with this album. Although everyone knows that this is a masterpiece conceived by Paul, who brought the entire concept and aesthetics of the album, some of the best compositions of his career and the most revolutionary bass lines in history, we cannot forget the fundamental roles of John Lennon, who also brought some of his best compositions and, in my opinion, the best vocal performances of his career. George brought the impeccable Indian psychedelic sound to Within Without You and Ringo Starr, often labeled as the least talented Beatle, showed in his performances on this album why he is one of the most revolutionary drummers of all time. Ringo is like the beating heart of this band and, on top of everything, he brought us the unforgettable performance of With A Little Help From My Friends. I repeated the word "revolutionary" a few times while writing this review and for good reason. Revolutionary is the correct word to describe this album. I don't think I said anything in this review that hasn't already been said by millions of people over almost 60 years. But I make a promise here: I am currently 23 years old and as long as I live, I will spread the Beatles' music and pass it on to future generations. I will introduce the Beatles to my children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and even my great-grandchildren's children if possible, until my last breath. And this will be the first album I will always recommend!

What a great album! I always thought I should give this album a little more attention and today I found out why. Bob Dylan is a great storyteller and this, combined with a simple sound and his unique way of singing like a solitary troubadour, makes Blood On The Tracks one of the most creative albums of his career. Personally, it is not among my favorites, for the simple fact that you can't choose 10 albums to be your favorite, you can only choose two or three hahahaha. Jokes aside, this is without a doubt a 5 star album!

That was a really good experience. I usualy don't like eletronic music but this one was fine!

Very good album! I loved the psychedelic vibe in these songs. It's like an album from the 60s released in 1997.

It has a slight touch of Radiohead (well, at least the singer's voice sounds like Thom York). It sounds very good at some points, at others it is very dragging and tiring. However, the whole album has a very touching atmosphere. Not bad! I will leave 3 stars today.

What a great way to start a Monday! Today we have here the masterpiece of one of the most influential bands of the early 60s. I personally have a special connection with the song Green Onions, despite it having been released decades before I was born, because the song is present in the soundtrack of GTA San Andreas (the video game I have played the most in my life). For this reason, there is a very strong feeling of nostalgia going on right now hahahaha. The idea of ​​the album is simple and fun and the sound is spectacular. The sound of this album seems to have been released at least a decade ahead of its time. It's as if it were an album from 1972, released in 1962 hahaha. I don't give 5 stars to instrumental works. As I have said in other reviews I have done for this site, the vocals are fundamental pieces that establish a stronger connection between the artist and the listener and this is the only flaw of this album. The only one. So the rating is 4.999999/5 stars which is very painful because my nostalgic side wanted to give it 5 ;-;

Very boring! Her wonderful voice doesn't support this succession of bad songs. Some are even cool and save the album from total uselessness. I'll leave two stars today

Another artist on my waiting list. Coming from the ashes of Joy Division, I had long been curious to know what the remaining members of that legendary band became. And I tell you: another really cool band! This album has some low points but is very comfortable to listen to. I loved! I'm going to leave 4 stars today!

Very interesting experience. It's not something I'll listen to every day but I like the experimental vibe of this album. I don't understand French, but they sound great. I will leave 3 stars today.

Let me share some stories; In 2017, when the album turned 37, I placed my CD copy on the floor around some candles and flowers, as if in a kind of African religious ritual, and then I listened to the album 37 times in a row; that same year, Back In Black and other AC/DC songs were some of the main reasons I became interested in learning to play the electric guitar; Back In Black was playing on the radio when I made love for the first time; Back In Black is the first album I listened to from start to finish. This was the album that taught me that we consume music through albums and to this day, at least in my opinion, the standard format for an album is: about 40 minutes, 10 tracks, about 4 minutes each track, beginning, middle and end, all thanks to my countless listenings of this album. Anyway, I could spend all day here telling you several other stories I have with this album. But then, instead of a review, I would be writing a 900-page book! Today I am certain that this is the most important album of my life, because if today I am a lover and compulsive consumer of music, if today I am here listening to the daily albums from 1001albunsgenerator, it is because almost a decade ago I was listening to this album for the first time. 5 stars of course!

This is legitimately an album you need to hear before you die. At first I was confused about the album, because the name and year refer to an album and the cover is from another album. I did some googling and discovered everything. It's a perfect post punk album that seems to mix the sounds of bands like Siousie and The Banshees, The Cure and The Smiths with light touches of pure originality! I loved!

I'm starting to believe that everything The Stooges have done is pure gold!

If I remember correctly, this isn't the first time a Common album has appeared here... anyway, great rap album! I really like it when an album like this sounds like the 90s, even though it isn't. His voice is very comfortable to listen to. It was a great start to the morning listening to this! I will leave 4 stars today.

It's time to dust off a CD on the shelf. Green and R.E.M are a great way to start a Tuesday! Green, when compared to other absolute classics, seems like a lesser work by the band, but on the contrary, Green is a great work by R.E.M that proves that simple but well done is wonderful!

I love jazz and a good storyteller! The atmosphere is really cool. The big flaw of this album is the lack of immersion. There is a very specific chemistry between Tom and the audience that was captured for the album, but the only feeling it gives me is the desire to be there live and enjoy that moment. Under no circumstances would it make me go out of my house to buy this album, because it is not the same. Performances like Tom Waits' are intimate and have something very special, but only at the moment of the performance. It does not work well on a recording. In short: Great performance, terrible album. I will give it 3 stars because I like storytellers!

A classic from the 90s! It's really interesting how the sound of this album remains fresh to this day. It feels like it was released yesterday! There's not much to argue with. A classic 90s rock album, with really good songs... 5 stars!

This is one of the few Bowie albums that I had never listened to before. But as I had already imagined, Bowie doesn't have bad albums! I always prejudged this album because of its similarity to the cover of Heroes, but I can see that (or maybe I'm crazy) The Next Day is a kind of sonic and spiritual continuation of Heroes... It may not have anything to do with it, but that's the feeling I got. Anyway, 5 stars.

This was a really fun rap album! I loved the theme, the vocals and the rhythm... I'm giving it 4 stars!

Wow! I haven't listened to Pixies in ages. Doolittle is one of the albums that is part of the soundtrack of my adolescence. I have great memories of Here Comes Your Man among others... However, this album hasn't aged very well, in terms of sound. The songs are still very good but not good enough for a full 5-star rating. I'll give it 4 today!

This is one of the sexiest albums I've ever heard! The swing and synergy of the percussions and Santana's iconic guitars make you freely wander imaginatively through the curves of this Black Magic Woman on the album cover!

If this album were a drink, its composition would be: A good Hip-Hop whiskey with a good amount of Rock Cola and Soul & Funk ice on top! Very interesting sound. It's not something I would listen to every day, but it was fun to listen to. I had never listened to Beastie Boys before today. I hope to hear better albums than this one in the future.

Tim Buckley sounds like a mummified zombie version of Jim Morrison, who came back from the dead to sing in a really good Doors cover band! Some of his lyrics are silly and superficial. Others are really good, like Sweet Surrender. The main problem here is that there are some songs that are a little over 6 minutes long, and from the middle onwards they are just clumsy improvisations that end up ruining the song. The best songs on this album are precisely those that escape this parameter, like Nighthalkin', for example. That's because Tim's band is really good! The instrumentals are great. However, it's not exciting enough for me to give it a rating higher than 3 stars... This is the second album by Tim Buckley that I've received through this site. I'm curious to know what other picturesque things he's done on his albums in his short career...

Kraftwerk's sound sounds like the perfect stereotype of "modern music" or "music of the future" The first 3 tracks are basically composed of a unique and singular sound and the lyrics were basically repetitions of the name of the song, as if they were Pokémon shouting their own name. Then I was surprised by a song called "Das Model", which uses the same unique sound that had been presented until then, but this time with lyrics that talk about a woman. This ends up transforming the track into a great pop song! I was curious about the origins of Krautrock, so I opened the wiki and discovered that this name is nothing more than a media stereotype. Then, while listening to Neon Lights, I found myself reading an entire page of Wikipedia about the health benefits of German sauerkraut... Wonderful! In the title track that closes the album, we have the return of the Pokémon shouting its own name... but it's good too! Today I'm going to give it 4 stars! This is the second album by this band that I have listened to through this site and this one was much better than the previous one, Autobahn.

I'm going to be on a road trip for the next 3 days and I'm more than grateful to have this iconic album recommended! The Smiths are one of my Comfy Bands and I probably listen to Queen is Dead about 20 times a year! I don't want to review it today. I just want to enjoy the view from the road and listen to this album over and over again on my car stereo.

Second day on a road trip. Another good album to enjoy the view from the road! I won't be reviewing it today, just like yesterday, but I will express my curiosity about Frank Black. I had no idea he had a solo career (I'm not a regular Pixies listener) and his voice sounds great on this album.

Third and last day on a road trip. No reviews today either. This album doesn't really fit the road trip landscape, but it's still really good. It has elements of hip-hop and R&B and her voice sounds really sexy! 4 stars today!

Following the example of the Frank Black album that I listened to the day before yesterday, I'm not a big White Stripes listener either and I had no idea that Jack White had a solo discography. Blunderbuss sounds very similar to the White Stripes style, of course this is due to Jack's iconic vocal lines and unmistakable guitars and his unique, carefree and relaxed way of playing the Blues. Very cool! It's not a perfect album but it's a very enjoyable listen! 4 stars!

Echo and The Bunnymen is a band that I criminally haven't paid enough attention to yet. Until today I only knew The Killing Moon and Porcupine has a wonderful sound! Today I'm going to leave 4 stars, because I need to digest the album better. But I hope to hear more of their albums in the future!

Very interesting experience! It has a very nice groove to listen to! Although the percussion and beat make the 53 minutes of this album a bit tiring, it works very well as a sound background for some other activity... I'm giving it 3 stars today!

It's because of albums like this that I've been on 1001albunsgenerator for 227 consecutive days. Discovering gems like these on a Thursday night is priceless. The album has a very creative sound, built on funk grooves. 38 minutes very well spent! Great lyrics. The vocalist sounds like Ian Curtis had joined a disco band. I don't usually give 5 stars to a newly discovered album, but today, I'll make an exception.

The songs have silly lyrics that talk about love and relationships, about dancing, about beautiful, young and sweet girls who are only 17 dancing, about kissing the geometry teacher and constant questions from someone who really wants to know if Fernando is listening to the drums... But all of this in an atmosphere that manages to be danceable, magical and cozy at the same time! I loved it! 5 stars!

I have a little problem with Zeppelin... After many years listening to their songs, i'm not able to listen to a single album anymore! So thanks 1001albunsgenerator! You made me do a Zeppathon today... 5 stars of course.

The whole album sounds like they were testing out a bunch of potentially good songs, but instead of finishing the work, they decided to release the half-baked, incomplete versions of the songs on an album. 2 stars

Imagine that you are in 1967 and the guitarists you are used to listening to are Eric Clapton, George Harrison, BB King... You turn on the radio and suddenly the first thing you hear are the first notes of Purple Haze... That changes everything! There was Rock Music before Hendrix and after Hendrix. Even today, if a kid decides to learn to play the guitar, he will come across Hendrix at some point in his learning. That's how great this guy was for music... And this album is the pinnacle of his work. An album that perfectly summarizes and presents him as an artist. 5 stars, of course.

The strong point of this album is definitely the lyrics. They address themes such as love and politics in a very unique way. Billy's very strong British accent adds a charming touch to the minimalist sound, based basically on an electric guitar with very 80s sound characteristics or a piano, with some other instrument just providing a little support from time to time. Although minimalist, the sound of the album never sounds empty at any point. The lyrics are very captivating and tell stories that you want to follow until the end. I want to highlight the song "Honey I'm a Big Boy Now". Not because I think it's the best on the album, but because I think it's the most different. It's based on voice and very characteristic piano. I can imagine it being played in some American saloon in the 1800s. Only without the British accent, of course. In fact, it's an album that deserves to be heard before you die. I'm giving it 4 stars today!

A very interesting experience. An album that exudes a very deep emotion in its sound and lyrics. I was in tears while listening to "Go or Go Ahead". Few things stop me from giving it 5 stars today. It's hard to find faults. I'll give it 4, but a 4.99999999...

This was the album that introduced me to Goth Rock. The album that showed me that those weirdos with makeup and messy hair had feelings too. Spellbound is one of the hardest songs I've ever played on guitar... damn.

Just like you shouldn't judge a book by its cover, you shouldn't judge an album by its release date. When I saw that it was a 2019 album I thought "fuck me, another boring album" but I was completely wrong. The sound has great soul influences wrapped in a progressive and impactful atmosphere that matches the deep and intense lyrics. The album sounds like Bill Withers had collaborated with Pink Floyd or something...

I can't remember the last time I heard a voice as clear and crystal clear as this one! It's so nice to listen to. The album is so good that it's almost impossible to find any flaws. I'm giving it 4 stars for personal taste reasons: it's not something I'll listen to every day. But as a music lover, it definitely matches the theme of the site and it's definitely an album to listen to before you die!

Too much noise and waste of good ideias. I just couldn't understand a single word of what they were saying. Potentially good songs were simply thrown in the trash. There is nothing to enjoy from this album... 1 star.

I used to listen to this album a lot when I was in high school. It had been years since I had listened to the Berlin Trilogy. Today was a great day for that. Bowie is an automatic 5 stars!

Not my kind of music but yeah not bad...

A Christmas album on Christmas day? How convenient, isn't it, 1001albumsgenerator??? It almost seems like it was written to be like that... Well, I loved the gift, although it's never a pleasure to read Phil Spector's name, but I recognize that his work is very relevant and, let's face it, what could be wrong with a collaborative album with names like The Ronettes and The Crystals? I had never heard of Darlene Love and Bob B. Boxx, but I liked them a lot too! Well, 5 stars and Merry Christmas to everyone who's reading this!

A friend of mine once told me: "Man, you have to listen to this album! It's the most revolutionary jazz album ever!" I had already started doing the 1001albumsgenerator challenge when he told me this, so I replied: "relax, at some point the site will send me this album to listen to." And here we are, 250+ days later I'm listening to Kind Of Blue and now I want to beat my friend up for not insisting that I listen to this album sooner! There are no flaws in this album, that's all. It is truly a masterpiece of jazz, as everyone says. I'm going to give it 5 stars today without even thinking about it!

A nice pop album from the 60s. I liked her voice. Instruments well played. Very tasteful album, but nothing too impressive. I'll give 4 stars today.

My first inclination was to give this a 1 star rating because, come on, what is a Lana album doing in this challenge? But I don't completely hate her work, I've listened to some of her albums before, but all of them, including this one, sound like everything Lana is saying sounds fake as hell. The ballads have some good melodies here and there, but overall the songs are slow and boring and don't fit in any everyday situation. Not even the most depressing and lonely times. Her voice makes me sleepy and the harmonies sound empty. Well, my initial inclination remains, 1 star.

That kind of music just doesn't make any sense to me... 1 star

Yeah! Nice! I never had listen or heard about afrobeat before, but that was a pleasent surprise! Another good discovery from the 70s! 5 stars today!

That's one of the most boring things I've ever listen... hell of a way to end the year, huh?

First of all, this is high class music! But there's no denying that the production was a huge pain, like, 23 tracks? Seriously? Some of them are unnecessary and some good song ideas are criminally short and underused. I'm going to give it 3 stars today, but the sound of this album had the potential to be 5. Happy New Year to everyone reading this!

A Simon & Garfunkel classic! I like this duo, but I'm not a big fan of this album. But I recognize that it's high class music! I'll give it 4 stars today!

A Green Day's huge classic! Today was a day to dust off an old CD and bang to those hits in this album! Nothing more to say. Just 5 stars.

Uh, I like this one! It has the chillin' vibe that I love on hip-rop/rap music... I'm gonna give it 4 stars today.

A Talking Heads classic! 5 stars. Nothing to say!

My only problem with CCR is that when I have to listen to them, I have to listen to all 6 albums in a row. CCR is one of my comfy bands since I was a teenager. 5 stars of course!

A very pleasant discovery! In my mind, if Michael Jackson were alive, he would be doing something like this. 4 stars.

Oh my gosh, I haven't listened to this album in ages. I used to listen to a lot of Yes when I was in high school and those early 70's albums are masterpieces of progressive rock. It was really cool to reminisce about iconic songs like Yours Is No Disgrace and I've seen all good people. 5 stars of course!

Did Willie Nelson released any bad albums???? Answer: no!

There's something about the 50s sound that really excites me. So simple, but so good! 5 stars of course!

It has the same vibe as Green Onions by Booker T and MG's. A Jazz and Blues album without lyrics, but very well executed and enjoyable to listen to. I'll give it 4 stars.

God only knows how much I needed to listen to a Jingle Jangle this morning! The Byrds is one of the bands from the 60s that I have listened to least. Of course I knew the cover of Tambourine Man, but I had never stopped to listen to a whole album. Two interesting things: 1 - The first time I listened to Mr. Spaceman, it was in the voice of my fellow Brazilian, Raúl Seixas - Father of Brazilian Rock. His version is called "S.O.S" and came out on his second album "Gita" (1974) 2 - A version of Hey Joe older than Jimi Hendrix's. Interesting, but obviously Jimi's is superior. But this one is also very cool! I'm going to give it 5 stars today! Where have I been all this time that I hadn't listened to these guys before...

Lately, I feel like I'm listen to same hip-hop album over and over again... I'll leave 2 stars today.

Very Good! A true rock n roll album from the 70s! I never heard about Spirit before, but they sound amazing! I'll leave 4 stars today!

Iron Maiden smells like teen spirit. It smells like a virgin, pimply teenager. I hadn't listened to this album in many years. For some reason, Iron Maiden is one of the bands I stopped listening to when I became an adult, just like Metallica, Slayer and others... But without a doubt I have great affection for this album, as it was one of the albums that introduced me to Heavy Metal. Other than that, the album's sound has aged very well. Listening again after so many years, with more maturity and definitely with speakers much superior to those I had at 15 years old, I realize how fantastic these guys were, as in the sharp guitars, in Steve Harris's monumental bass, in the drums on point and perfect, and of course, Bruce Dickson's insane vocals, which give me goosebumps to this day. 5 stars, of course!

Today I listened to the most cute version of Iron Man ever! Jokes apart, that's a great album! Her voice is so soft and enjoyable to listen to. It's an album that I need to listen more times to proper digest. I'll give 4 stars today!

This is probably the best debut by a Southern Rock band of all time. Are you kidding me? 3 of the 8 songs on this album are on every compilation of Rock n' Roll anthems! Especially Free Bird. This song still makes me play air guitar for 4 minutes straight, even though I know how to play a real guitar. What a great album! I've been listening to this album since I was a teenager and I'll definitely listen to it forever! 5 stars, obviously!

Just like The Byrds, whose Fifth Dimension was sent to me a few days ago, Mammas and The Papas is also a band that I criminally never listened to. Obviously, I already knew the legendary classic California Dreamin', but I had never listened to an entire album. I was surprised by the spectacular sound of the album, and especially by the harmonious vocals that border on perfection. I really liked the covers of Do you Wanna Dance and I Call your Name, which I already knew from the work of the Beatles and the Beach Boys. Just like Lynyrd Skynyrd's debut that the site sent me yesterday, this is also a great debut album! 5 stars!

It didn't impress me much, but it's not bad. 3 stars.

Ho? Hey Ho! Ho? Hey ho! Yeaaah! So we have an absolute classic today, huh? After my first 10 years of beatlemanic, I was afraid of exploring the solo albuns by the former members. That fear was completly gone when I first listened to this album for the first time. All of the 9 songs are very enjoyable to listen to, and some of those are huge classics. I'll never forget the experience of listen to Let Me Roll It live when Paul came to Rio in December of 2023. Let Me Roll It was kept me wonder of how good it would be played live, and it was much more that I was expecting. Mindblowing! Best solo beatle album? I don't know. But certainly one of the three best, for sure!

I opened the review section before writing mine a little while ago, and boy, that was a big mistake! It's full of Elvis widows from Sun Records in that section. Others, however, consider From Elvis In Memphis to be a rebirth of Elvis, who after spending most of the 60s without presenting very creative things in his albums, releasing albums without originality, and films that were as repetitive and silly as their soundtracks, reemerged bringing the good old Elvis of always, but this time much more mature, and with much more country and even Motown influences. His voice is much more mature, and the production is impeccable. I read some idiots say that the album was overproduced. But in truth, that's how every Elvis album should sound! There are some excellent and very talented musicians playing on this album. Can you imagine what Elvis' work in the 50s would have sounded like if those songs had this quality of production? All this, added to the presence of the anthological song Suspicious Mind, one of the high points of Elvis' career! Anyway, I can't think of any other rating other than 5 stars!

Now that's real country music! Her voice is angelic, and the arrangements and lyrics are fantastic. I listened to it 3 times in a row and I was left wanting more! Incredible and wonderful! 5 stars!

There's a famous saying that goes: "Never judge an album by its cover!" But we only say that to amazing albums with bad covers, right? I've never bothered to do the reverse. Not to judge a spectacular cover of a boring album. For me, the flaw in this album is the instrumental minimalism, which for some reason, didn't work properly to intensify and spread the message of some of the great lyrics on this album, which ended up being a complete waste in the end. I mean, the album is only 28 minutes long, and this guy still gives me a song like "Know", with just an acoustic guitar playing the same notes and only 4 lines of lyrics. That's sooo boring and tedious! It kills 2 and a half minutes of the album for nothing! Because of the good lyrics on most of the songs, I'm going to give it 2 stars!

Neil Young is like a good cup of coffee. You can live without it, right? But why risk it?

not for me mate.

They sound like a mix of Simon & Garfunkel and Neil Young. So much so that Neil himself joined them later, right? A great debut album. I loved it! 5 stars!

Not perfect, but really good! Sounds like a mix of Joy Division and Kraftwerk. Personal Jesus is on the soundtrack of GTA San Andreas, so I listened to it a lot since I was a kid. Gonna give 4 stars today.

Cool but not for me mate. 3 stars

Has a interesting sound but not for me mate.

Pink Floyd is my favorite band and I'm a simple man. I see Floyd and I hit 5 stars.

I always find it amazing how David Bowie's music can take me straight back to high school. It's like going back in time, when only music could ease the anxiety and the teenage blues, you know, before I was introduced to the alcohol industry.

I saw a video the other day of John recording 'Gimme Some Truth', and I think he hears someone in the studio missing a note or something, and then he turns to the camera and says "Oh C'mom you Cunts!". And the facial expression he makes is exactly the same as the one on the cover of this album, and I can't look at it without laughing! That aside, Imagine is definitely an iconic album. It's not the best solo Beatle album. Or even Lennon's best. But it's a good album. The production is very well done and some of John's best compositions are present here, like Crippled Inside, Gimme Some Truth, Jealous Guy, the infamous How do You Sleep, and of course, the classic Imagine, which I spent years believing was a Beatles song. It certainly could be. It is in fact the greatest song released after the Beatles in terms of relevance (it is not one of my favorites, but there is no denying that) Over the years, I have learned to appreciate songs like Don't Wanna Be a Soldier and even Oh Yoko more, which makes me leave this review today giving it 5 stars.

She sounds like that smoking aunt that everyone has. Despite that, her vocals are insane. This is a great album, good songs, good lyrics and very well played instruments. Out of the members of the "27 Club" she is the only one that I never imagined going much far than this. I mean, she sang good songs, but she didn't have the same creative force as Hendrix or Morrisson. But I can't deny that it would have been very interesting to listen to more of this powerful voice throughout the 70s.

Second member of the "27 club" in two consecutive days. What's tomorrow going to be? The Doors? I'm starting to think that all 1001 albums are scripted. Anyway, jokes aside. Everything Hendrix did is brilliant. But I always thought that the production of his albums was of low quality. At least compared to what such a brilliant artist deserved to have. Every note he plays with his guitar exudes an enormous aura of creativity and originality, showing the unique way he had to play the guitar. The good bass lines and Mitch Mitchell's brilliant drums complement the songs perfectly. But as I said before, the production is very lacking. At some points, the guitar completely stands out over the other instruments. It almost gives me a headache. But if you think the rating will be anything other than 5 stars, you're crazy! There's no way I can listen to Hendrix without getting goosebumps, no matter how poorly produced the album is. Of the members of the "27 club" this is certainly the one that is most missed. It would have been a delight to see what Hendrix would have done in the 70s, with superior production and recording qualities... we can only imagine!

Just that little drum roll at the beginning of the songs is already worthy of 5 stars. Imagine the rest!

A solo album from a Steely Dan member? I really have a lot to listen to... This is a very good album. Nothing compared to the SD classics, but very enjoyable. Makes me think that everything this guy did is worth listening to. I'm giving it 4 stars today.

I get the whole McCartney trilogy thing about experimental music from Paul's creative mind. But... I don't know! This album always gave me the impression that it was poorly made, or made in a haphazard and careless way. I even heard someone say that this album would be the first LO-FI album in history. I think that's an exaggeration. But I get the point. Anyway, this is the album that introduced the world to the anthology "Maybe I'm Amazed", so it gets credit for that. I'm giving it 3 stars today.

It's definitely better than anything Damon Albarn has done in his career.

I must that didn't impress me much. Maybe I need more time to proper digest this.

Way cooler than I thought! It has a unique sound. Very enjoyable to listen to. I'll give it 4 stars today.

Very good! Pixies never disappoint. There's the classic "Where Is My Mind?" here, and that's worth listening to the whole album, which is very enjoyable to listen to.

I almost fell asleep.

When I was 16, I had a "ProgMania era" in my life. It was the period in which I discovered many bands of all genres, especially progressive. Perhaps of all these, Genesis was the band that I explored the most superficially. I remember having only heard Sailing England by The Pound, and I remember that I liked it. And that was it. Listening to the band now years later, I feel that my 16-year-old self would have loved it if I had determined to listen to them carefully. My modern self, however, ahhh... not so much! I mean, it's a very good album, it has great songs and incredible sound effects for the time, and in fact a legitimate album from the peak of Progressive Rock in the 70s, but... I don't know, something about this almost flashy sound doesn't really appeal to me. I'll give it a fair 4 stars.

There are two types of Neil Young fans: 1: I want to live on a farm, raise cattle, and grow corn. 2: I want to live in Seattle, be depressed, and never shower.

So cozy and comfortable to listen to. It felt like a good day on a holyday. I'm gonna give it 4 stars.

Aerosmith in their prime. No mistakes here. 5 stars.

I was wondering... if I was a teenager in the early 70s, I'd loooose my mind listen to this! I never had listen a Alice Cooper album until this day, but of course I knew the track "School's Out", and when I saw the album here today I thought "Oh another regular rock album with at least 2 or 3 good tracks". But turns out to be a great album, where all of the tracks got this "last day at school" vibe. Love it! 5 stars.

If The Beatles were a girl band in the 80's, they would sound just like this! I listened to "We Got The Beat" a few years ago for the first time, and I went crazy about it. At the time, I was discovering girls bands from the 70's and 80's like Blondie, Pretenders, Runaways, B-52's and many others, but never actually stop and listen to a Go-Go's album. They sound pop and very dancing. Simply but good lyrics and an amazing vibe. No mistakes here, 5 stars!

Wow, I haven't listened to this album since high school. Listening now years later, I can notice that this album contains the essential basis of all heavy metal from the 80s. Mainly Iron Maiden, in which I found several similarities. And now I'm a Manchester United fan.

I already knew War because of the legendary song "Low Rider", but I had never stopped to listen to a full album and, I have to say, this is easily one of the best Soul and Funk albums I have ever listened to. Everytime I hear about the best albums in this genre, I hear names like Marvin Gaye or Curtis Mayfield, but I never hear anything about this great band called War. They are very underrated, and they make top quality music. Their Wikipedia article is nothing more than a mere sketch and that is almost a crime. 5 stars of course!

Great album. It sounds folk, but it's pop. He's got a sweet melody voice. I believe that if The Stone Roses released an acoustic album, it would be sounding just like that. I'm gonna give 4 stars today.

Prime Stevie! 5 stars.

I think the biggest problem with this album is the amount of tracks, because half of it is garbage. There are some good tracks on there, and she has a good voice, but the album is boring and tiring. I'm gonna give it 2 stars.

Ever since this site sent me a Neil Young album for the first time, I've been exploring his work more and more and becoming more and more addicted to it. This must be the fourth album that has arrived here on the site, but I've listened to practically everything he released between 1969 and 1992 (I stopped at Harvest Moon because I've been listening to that album on repeat every day for a few weeks). So, I credit this site for giving me my newest addiction. Thank you. On The Beach has a much more bluesy aura, without abandoning the folk aesthetic that characterizes many of his songs. The big difference on this album is in the percussions. They give a more relaxing dynamic to the album. It really makes you think you're listening to this on a beach. 5 stars, no secrets!

I just received a Neil Young album yesterday, and today we have CSN & Young... I'm keeping an eye on that premeditated script, huh, 1001albunsgenerator! But I'm not complaining, quite the opposite. I've been completely immersed in Neil Young's work, and all his projects, like his contribution to Crosby, Stills & Nash. Here he leaves us with at least two wonderful songs in his voice: Helpless and Country Girl. Speaking of the album as a whole, few times in history do you get the opportunity to listen to an album as perfect as this one. All 10 tracks are absolute hits. There are songs that hit the soul hard like "Almost Cut My Hair" and "4 + 20" and there are songs that are impossible not to shake your bones like "Woodstock" and "Everybody I Love You" One of the easiest 5 stars I've ever given!

That's a Fine Album! One of the best things that the 2000's rock got to offer. That was the first time I ever listened to this band, and it was a great experience. Not perfect, but great! I'm gonna leave 4 stars today.

I used to hang out with this girl who loved to have sex while listening to this album. Things always used to go crazy when "Space Truckin'" started to play (COME ON!). I wasn't even a huge Deep Purple fan back then, but when you have a hot chick like that claiming you as her Highway Star, you change your mind in a heartbeat! Seriously, Smoke On The Water deserves a proper shout-out. Not only because it's probably the most famous guitar riff in music history, but everything involved in the context of this song is absolutely legendary, and the guys in Purple knew it. So much so that in the lyrics of the song itself they say: "No matter what we get out of this I know, I know we'll never forget" An absolute 5 stars for this legendary album!

I had a lot of fun listening to this album. It sounds like the good old days of 90's Britpop. I'll give it 4 stars.

An absolute Bowie classic! Probably the album I've listened to the most, along with Heroes. It's one of the anthems of my adolescence, and at the same time it's an album I've never stopped listening to. Every now and then I play it and start enjoying it as if it were the first time. 5 stars, obviously!

When I was a kid, Michael Jackson died, and his popularity grew tremendously at that time, especially among us kids, who were getting in touch with this 80s pop music for the first time. Along with this whole new world that appeared before us, a kind of silly rivalry also grew between the King and Queen of Pop. The boys were fans of Michael, and the girls were fans of Madonna. And it was as simple as that: the boys didn't listen to Madonna because it was a girl thing, and the girls didn't listen to Michael because it was a boy thing. Silly, right? But because of that, Madonna is probably the most famous artist whose songs I've never listened to until today! And only today I realize what a huge mistake I made all these years. I had a lot of fun listening to this album, and just like in 2009, a new world of 80's pop music is once again open up before me to explore... even though it's a "girl thing."

This is definetely not pop music! It's not something I'll hear every day. It needs a proper time to enjoy it, but it's definetely good music... I'm gonna leave 3 stars today.

That's a fine album! Tiny Dancer worths the all the trip, but the rest of the album is also pretty good! Not my favorite Elton John's album, but Madman Across The Water is an obrigatory stop on the marathon. I'm gonna give it 4 stars.

bad day to have ears.

I rather listen to the sound of my farts.

"Baby's Got Sauce" but they don't. Some of the songs give me the same feeling as drinking spoiled milk after waking up with a tequila hangover. The album ends up being a compilation of good song ideas wasted. I'm giving it 2 stars because I admit I found myself dancing to "Cold Drinks" and "Shooting Hoops", and these guys seem to be having a lot of fun recording this, so it's worth it. It's the kind of thing I'd play with my friends while we knock back a few beers.

I'm not a great fan of Coldplay, but that's a fine album! Yellow is a 2000's classic! Gonna leave 4 stars today.

This is a nice album! Must be the third Tim Buckley's album I got from here, and in all of them I had basically the same experience: A good, calming and enjoyable album. 4 stars it is.

Not bad at all. Just a regular good album from the end of the 60's. 3 stars.

Here we have some great 80's music! Listening to Peter Gabriel was a really nice surprise. He is one of the artists on my waiting list whose work I most need to explore in more depth. I'm going to give it 4 stars today. Very Nice!

I remember the first time I listened to "Father and Son" when I was 16, and it hit so hard in my soul at the time, it seemed that the song were speaking directly to me. Since then, Cat Stevens been on my waiting list, and finally my chance came, and boy... why dind't I had listen to this before? I wasted so much time. This is wonderful. It's my kind of music you know, it just fills my soul! Of course I knew "Wild World" too, but all of the songs are amazing. 5 stars without a doubt!
