Great album, but I prefer life’s rich pageant and document more
There are better Zeppelin albums out there. The lead track on this one is known, but I can skip the others.
Solid from start to finish. My TOY song was going to be Blitzkrieg Bop
Nothing other than "classic rock" - Who's Next is better IMO.
One needs to acquire a taste for this band; I lost that taste a long time ago.
Fantastic album with some classic jams.
Not the best Prince album.
There's better music from him.
Why isn't 0 stars an option here?
Dreams, Go Your Own Way, The Chain, etc.
I have an original pressing of this, but it's not my favorite Bowie.
I don't own this Bowie album, but its ok.
I don't mind this, but I prefer earlier brit-pop like the Stone Roses, James, Supergrass, or Oasis
Bowie doesn’t get much better than this. Best era of Bowie and an album full of bangers.
There's some songs on here that I appreciate more now that I've been able to marinate on this album for 25 years. I wasn't a fan initially.
Nothing to say here. Johnny Cash is great.
Someone failed New Wave School.
The Killing Moon is one of my all time favorite songs.
How many times has My Generation been covered? I know Green Day covered it 30 years ago. This is a decent album.
A few gens; Strange Love is a cult classic
Cool Thing and Mote are classics
Needs either the Byrds or Stills and Nash
This album wouldn't be on here if it didn't contain Bohemian Rhapsody.
This would be a good listen on a lazy day.
Some classics - Good Times Roll, Best Friends Girl, Just What I needed, etc.
I could listen to this on repeat
Some classic hip-hop track son here from the mid-90s.
The Byrds have some decent tunes here, but nothing out of the ordinary for the genre.
Some definite classics here.
It's bowie, just not my favorite bowie
Moz. Not the best, but still Moz.
Little Wing is here, but not much more.
This album served a purpose for post-punk way before the world knew it needed it.
Some classic Motown here.
Wasn’t really a fan of them
This isn’t my favorite Souixsie release, but there are some classics here. Where’s the Bauhaus entry?
This is a review of an album by the Black Keys
I like El Camino better!
One hit wonders that are overplayed on Sirius 33.
We really didn’t need another who album on this list, much less a live one.
Not particularly anything.
Starting to wonder where they picked these 1001 albums from; perhaps the discount or “free” bin?
The last great entry from REM; some favorites here.
Bennie and the Jets and a few other tracks are here, but nothing else stands out.
This wasn't horrible, but it was too popish for me.
Nothing special here at all.
There are a few tracks on here that are ok, but I don’t ever think that I could settle into a “I’m listening to Neil Young” mood.
Easy top album of all time entry here. Maybe top 20 for me?
The amount of samples present + the amount of times this has been sampled by others = 🤯
Would I ride around blasting this? No. Did it make me Google samples then download an app that helps identify samples and usage? Yes.
I don’t understand the reason why live albums are on this listing. I can understand why the Allman Brothers Band would be on the list, as they are phenomenal.
Three stars for the ABB, but not for a live album
This is my least favorite of the first four Pixies albums. That would put it behind Dolittle, Surfer Rosa, and Come on Pilgram, respectively.
No Woman, No Cry, and not much more here
If you’ve never watched the version of Wizard of Oz that is synced to this album, go do it.
Not sure why this album is here.
I was never a huge Van Halen fan, but I appreciate some of the hits on this release.
🤮 I think that the creator of this listing is a sick, demented little man who sits in a dark room all day long researching horrible albums.
Funky, but not get a high score funky.
Bobby McGee and me approve this album.
Rikki Don't Lose That Number and other songs...
I will be pursuing legal action against the purveyors of this listing for unsolicited mental anguish as a result of their lack of musical taste. For this to be someone’s album of the year for 1997 is disturbing, as the sound of toilets flushing would be far more entertaining.
Pretty sure that I’ve heard this on more than one occasion, it’s not good, but it’s good.
🐝 hard to believe this album is over 30 years old. Fantastic stuff.
An eloquently soothing voice. I appreciate her.
The only think I liked about this album is Stephanie's name being in there.
The Passenger and Lust for Life stick out - as they were covered and used over and over again in media. Aside from that, not much here.
Some people really enjoy early Cure. I prefer The Head in the Door, Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me, and Disintegration.
One of my friends likes Rush, but that's not me. This is uneventful and Tom Sawyer isn't here either.
This album made my ears smile.
The bird is not going to make it.
There are some classics here, but nothing I would habitually listen to.
Pretty Hate Machine was a phenomenal album for its time, but by time Closer arrived I had lost interest in Trent Reznor. Closer was overplayed in clubs and the industrial sound of NIN wasn’t anything special.
Screaming intensifies, interest dies.
I was never a huge GNR fan, but there are some gems here.
I can respect this for what it is. While it is not something that I would cruise around town blasting, it is something that is a decent representation of it's genre.
Great early 80s punk with Henry Rollins on vocals. Not as strong as the previous EP, but still influential.
Funkin' awesome jazz. I like it.
I didn’t care for the album at first, but after a friend urged me to listen again it grew on me. Not the hugest U2 fan, but this album and Rattle and Hum had some gems.
The album that really introduced pop-punk to the world. Although their previous releases were far better, Dookie received a warm reception and pushed the genre into the open. The overplay caused me to stick to prior releases and eventually almost abandon the band until recent years.
Not sure what these guys were trying to accomplish, but they failed.
The album art should probably get more stars than the album :)
Seriously though, this was before my time, and I have only really heard the tracks on classic rock radio. I do appreciate Wish You Were Here, but the album drags on. I am not legally able to modify my consciousness in a way that I can appreciate this music.
This should be called "Layla....and some other songs."
There's some good blues on here, but Layla will always be the top track.
I don't think that my review of this album will be fair, as I'm a huge fan of The Clash. I never really jumped on the Sex Pistols popularity, but Strummer and the rest of the band grew with me over time. I think I started listening to them before I hit 10 years of age, and that spread into adulthood. Joe Strummer is easily one of my favorite musicians.
This album features some fantastic tracks, London Calling, Hateful, Rudie Can't Fail (easily one of my top songs of all time), Spanish Bombs, Lost in the Supermarket, Koka Kola, Death or Glory, Train in Vain, etc.. I would also recommend Sandanista, the B side dubs on Super Black Market Clash, and Combat Rock amongst others.
I played the first few chords of this with my 7 year old in the bar. She disapproved, as do I.
There are a few hits here, but the album is average.
A mixed bag of stuff. Brass in my Pocket is probably the song I’ve heard the most outside of later releases.
Pretty sure that all the Spotify plays for the first track of this album came from this horrible list generator.
I appreciate Clapton, and I can see how this album was popular in its time. Just not something that I would run around listening to 60 years after its release.
I never really got into Radiohead. The one song I know is Creep and I prefer the J Church cover of that.
This is my #2 pixies album behind Dolitte. Gigantic and Where is My Mind have been on mix tapes and playlists for the last 35 years.
There is nothing about this album that makes me want to listen past the first 30 seconds of the first track.
Nothing special. Monotone and repetitive
Loaded is a far better album than this hot mess.
I would not drive around blasting this, but there are some tracks here that are musical masterpieces and phenomenal songs.
This would have been bad in the 80s, it's atrocious now.
I have friends that would probably listen to this, but I gravitated towards much more accomplished artists in this era.
Nothing spectacular outside of early punk. Thankful that Johnny Thunders went on to create the Heartbreakers - but aside from that? Meh.
Smooth Criminal is the only saving grace in this album. Off the Wall and Thriller capped his career.
Another of my all time favorite albums. Jane Says, Ocean Size, Mountain Song, etc.
This album was a few years too early for the world to totally respect it, but it’s still great 36 years later.
I remember when these guys came out, it’s mid-level hip-hop - but far better than most other rap of the time.
Outside of Golden Years, this doesn't offer up much from Bowie.
Holding Back the Years is here, aside from that there is nothing worth noting.
Another list failure. I wish I could rate negatively.
There are some classics on here, and he's a great guitar player, but nothing I would drive around blasting.
The Beatles - not the best beatles, not the worst either.
I'm sure I might have heard this before, but it is catchy.
This album has a LOT going on musically and historically.
Not the hugest fan of Neil Young, but Cinnamon Girl is on here. That track was covered by the Stone Roses and Smashing Pumpkins amongst others.
This album's popularity is most likely because the Time of the Season song. Aside from that it's forgettable.
This was uneventful for me.
If Elenore Rigby and Yellow Submarine were not on this album, it would be forgettable.
Another album that should have never made the listing.
Meh. Catchy at first, but then forgettable.
I forgot these guys existed. Middle of the road album for shoegaze fans. I prefer Jesus and Mary Chain far more than this. Lush, Curve, and Catherine Wheel are also valid Shoegaze acts.
Would this album be on the list if the song Running up that Hill wasn’t featured on Stranger Things?
Aside from Come Together, the rest of this album is uneventful.
There is nothing here that is anywhere remotely worth my time.
This is some fun funky funk for feeling fabulous...
https://youtu.be/vdj5Ts8asdQ?feature=shared
I was never a huge Floyd fan, yes there is some talent here, but this is not an album that I would purposely listen to.
Nothing worthy of more words than this.
I had a friend who bought this album 30 years ago. I also remember him throwing it out the car window while I was driving 90 down A1A at night.
Smoooooooth Jazz is back. I would listen to this driving, working, cleaning house, etc.
Ground control to Major Tom.. don’t listen to this album, it’s total garbage.
This is relaxing and comforting music for me. I'm not a huge Cat Stevens fan, I really like "If you want to sing out.." which resides on another album, but this was a good listen.
Meh. I've heard some of these songs in clubs, but honestly, it's not my thing. There was better Brit alterative at the time.
Nothing life changing or remarkable for me.
I wish I could unhear this.
Some people love this guy, I'm not a superfan, but can listen to him every now and then. I wouldn't go out of my way to add him to a playlist.
Muddy Waters is classic - this live album is ok.
Meh. Better than some of the other trash that has dropped lately, but not by much.
They tried to be interesting, but failed.
I know of this band, but I they never made it into my rotation. I could go down the post-hardcore/punk/emo genre for days, but this band never hit the spot for me; as there are so many other offerings that outshine these guys. Fugazi, Jawbox, Husker Du, Jawbreaker, Texas is the Reason, Sunny Day Real Estate - I could go on and on.
This band never really did anything that peaked my interest. Their song Creep, which isn't on this album, was great when it was sung by J Church. Other than that, they provide no musical worth to me.
Not horrible and catchy to a point.
The artist title is more memorable than the artist's tracks. That being said, I've heard Perfect Ways more times than necessary.
Only the Good Die Young and some other songs. Some people adore Billy Joel, and he is talented - but he doesn't do much for me.
Solid album from start to finish. I’ve listened to this album hundreds of times, and some tracks thousands of times. Definitely has withstood the test of time and continues to hit playlists and streams.
This album’s existence is proof that drugs negate brain cells.
A fantastic debut album, it was overlooked when released. Solid offerings.
Old Man and Heart of Gold might be classics, but they don't make a top album.
It's middle of the road Zeppelin. There's better Zepp records.
Hungry Like the Wolf, Rio, and some other songs.
Classic old school country with Merle.
This should be dropped out of this listing.
I never cared for this release. Fast Car was overplayed on the radio and that turned me off to the artist entirely.
One song does not an album make. This makes elevator music sound like heavy metal.
"What you do to me" was the only track I recall from this era. I do remember them doing a kickass version of Madonna's "Like a Virgin," which is musically superior to the original.
Meh. No More Mr. Nice Guy and some other songs...
Live albums don't really have a place here.
This album is easily one of the best of all time. I Wanna Be Adored, Waterfalls, She Bangs the Drums, and This is the One have been on mixed tapes and playlists for over 30 years. I’ve read books on this album, watched documentaries on the band, etc.
Another fun 90s entry. I'm not a huge fan of them, but there are a couple of catchy tunes on here. Far more friendly than the gibberish that this list throws at you from the 60s and 70s.
There are only a few electronica/techno bands that I would pay attention to, and I know this band may be considered the grandfather of techno, yet there’s nothing here that tickles my ear.
Iggy Pop has his moments - there are a couple of tracks that shine on this album, but not much more.
There are far better releases from this band that I would play from start to finish.
If I could rate this entire album based on the song \"To Be Young\" it would be five stars. There are some other great tracks on here, but they don't share the same sentiment or energy of that track. That being said, this is the album that led me to purchase several other Ryan Adams releases and Whiskeytown releases.
Sorry, Coldplay is a non-play for me.
Someone tried and failed.
This is another classic album. It's not for everyone, but there are some tracks here that are staples for the band.
Why is this here? She had one song in the 90s.
This is not my thing, but there are some great tracks on here that aren't as popular as Once in a Lifetime.
Not the best release from the Pogues, but definitely one to listed to. Fairytale of New York is brilliant, as are several of the other tracks.
Not my thing, but there's lots of funky beats here.
Skipping this new wave offering...
There's better Supergrass stuff.
Ironic was catchy 30 years ago, but the rest fell flat.
This album was great at the time it was released. It was overplayed, but has some gems on it still.
I prefer the early Beach Boys to this later, odd offering.
You can call me Al and some other songs...
The first two tracks on this album are bangers. The rest? Not so much. Three stars for the first two tracks.
The album is named after the person who added 95% of the albums on this list.
This has no place here. It's a recording of a dying woman who, while on her deathbed, is impersonating two dead turtles copulating.
More than a feeling and some other songs I don't recall.
Stay with me and then some songs I've never heard of...
Great stuff here, I was wondering when this listing was going to offer up something worth listening to again.
I'm sure that somewhere this is someone's top album, but it's not mine.
There's a trio of popular songs on here that make this album great. The rest are let downs IMO.
Zappa can make some music, but this isn't my thing.
The sheer number of bands that I listen to that list Big Star as an influence led me to listen to them when I was younger. There are some great songs on here.
There were a few tracks on here that got some playtime a very long time ago. I did go back and attempt to listen to this; it didn't hit the same 25 years later. Let it go.
Johnny Rotten and company. Some will love this album because of its history, but it’s also dated.
This album still earns playtime nearly 40 years after its release. Classic rap/hip-hop that would pave the way for the Beastie Boys to continue producing music until MCA’s passing.
Chock full of classics, but still a live album.
Nothing remarkable here at all.
90s alt pop. Forgot they existed tbh.
Very classic old school country.
Some great tracks on here, but also a bit of Beck being Beck.
Beautiful music, but not for me.
These guys had another album on this list, it sucked too.
I feel good in leaving a bad review. Forgettable live album.
Appropriate for Christmas Day and a great classic Motown Christmas album.
Not something that I would run to buy, but it has one or two moments.
Some early 80s gems on here.
Ill = sick
nois = noise
aka garbage
Tiny Dancer and some other tunes that can play in a smokey bar.
Into You Like A Train and Pretty in Pink are staples, but the accompanying tracks are great too.
I enjoyed this album. Its not a "have to have it" or "need to listen to it" album, but it has some quality to it.
I enjoyed a few tracks on this one too, must have missed it while enjoying punk and alt rock in the 90s.
No.
Seriously though, I can hear YES here, but it says no to me.
I had been wanting to listen to Sigur for years, but never got around to it. I didn't miss much.
Prior to this album, I was a regular listener and had purchased multiple albums. This album was a miss for me, I’ve revisited this album since then but it really doesn’t work.
Why does this list consistently generate total shit?
Me and Julio and some other songs.
Here’s another artist that still hits playlists decades later. Good stuff here.
Eye Know that this is classic. Fantastic release.
There really needs to be an option for no stars.
Two solid tracks and fillers.
Higher Ground and some other tunes.
https://youtu.be/1hyEnE1SwQA?feature=shared
This is something that could be played low in the background in a coffee shop or record store and I wouldn't mind it or rush to buy it. Soothing.
Peak REM outside of Document. This album got major playtime when it was released and still makes my ears smile.
Not their finest release.
This might be my favorite Costello album, some catchy tracks on here.
Some might say this is peak Eminem. There are a couple of bangers here, but the rest is mid Slim.
Fantastic album by the Strokes, several great catchy tracks here.
Nothing spectacular from them. There are some good songs on other albums, but nothing too impressive here.
Early 90s me liked to this album. Unfortunately "Under the Bridge" got far too much airplay. Breaking the Girl was a good tune, as was Blood Sugar Sex Magic.
They should have seen a doctor for the fever...
Post Sugarcubes Bjork was phenomenal. There are some great tracks on here.
There are some great tracks here, but not all are great tracks.
A few great tracks from the Doors here, good stuff.
I haven't listened to this album in years. Out of the class of grunge, I think that Alice in Chains wasn't as preferred as Pearl Jam, Screaming Trees, etc., but it is still solid.
Since NCTU got so much overplay, I never felt like listening to the remainder of the album. It is not my thing, but some may like it.
This one went right by me when it was released. I never really had a desire to listen to it.
Jazz and more jazz. Great stuff.
Classic PE - this release has some brilliant tracks on it - no complaints.
This album dropped about 40 years after his prime and is forgettable.
Motocrash and Birthday were in rotation during my college years, but I haven’t listen to this one in ages. This is still a solid release.
Not my cup of tea. There are other artists out there that do this better.
A little bit me, a little bit you, and a little bit of the same old same old.
I'm not sure why live albums make this list. Two stars because it's Deep Purple and there's some jamming going on.
Connection got the most airplay, but there are some other tracks on here that are great. I think that this album got buried underneath the mid-90s onslaught of pop-punk, alt, and second emo wave. That being said, some other female-led bands did it better - as you had Magnapop, Garbage, Belly, and the Breeders dropping solid albums in this time frame.
The Clash's debut LP - fantastic release that has stood up for nearly 50 years.
I'm pretty sure I might have heard this about 35 years ago, but with Spotify blocking the majority of the album it is difficult to say.
Didn’t bother to listen. Didn’t like it 40 years ago, no desire to listen now.
Stir it up and some other jams.
Sweet Emotion, Walk this Way, and some other songs.
Sweet Emotion was done better by the Mighty Mighty Bosstones in the mid-90s
Walk this Way was far superior with Run DMC.
Photograph, F-f-f-foolin', Rock of Ages and some other great songs that elementary school me got in trouble for blasting.
Recognizable classic rock - yet nothing I would buy or go out of my way to play.
Breath of fresh air for U2 until One was overplayed and killed the vibe.
Psycho Killer Qu'est-ce que c'est? then some other songs that are tolerable.
Never cared for Metallica.
La Grange has been used so many times in pop culture that it cannot be enumerated.
Humpty Dance and some other catchy ol' hip hop tunes.
Three hits and that’s about it. I don’t think it’s worthy of a greatest album list.
The first song has all the streams, and then 20000 people moved through the rest. Hardly worthy of a list.
How many Neil Young albums do we need here?
I remember hearing South Side, but nothing more from him. Perhaps I skipped the necessary influence.
If this is considered music, keep it away from the children.
American Girl and some other tunes.
Her voice is interesting, but not my thing.
I really enjoyed this one. Great stuff.
The sample track for Will Smith's Getting Jiggy With it and then We Are Family.
Post Husker Du Bob Mould is phenomenal. Sugar was a breath of fresh air in the early 90s, and the follow up albums were great too.
I never understood the popularity of this album.
Keep em Separated and Self Esteem skyrocketed these guys to the 1994 alt charts, but it was on the coattails of Green Day’s Dookie.
I don’t really see the necessity to continuously recycle Neil Young on this listing. There is no variance in the music.
The Cure before they, literally, changed their tune. Somewhere Robert Smith said it was either this album or suicide. Definitely as dark as they might get.
Classic to a point, but unfortunately more of the same.
Brit Pop - they peaked in with "The Only One I Know" on "Some Friendly."
No Whip-It here, but some good new wave.
Tom Sawyer and some tracks that weren't Tom Sawyer.
Classic - mellow - will put you to sleep, make you tear up, make you feel good.
Post punk New Wave? This was before the "Eighties"
There’s a teenage riot…
And some other good jams :)
Classic Dylan - solid album.
There are only a handful of Green Day songs that were released after Kerplunk, this album does not have any of them.
Jazz? Didn't find the full album.
Where's Eileen when you need a come on? This one is a snoozer.
Janis Joplin anyone? Some great stuff here.
Classic and smooth NY Hip Hop from the mid 90s.
Born to Run and some other tunes from the Boss.
Dre back in the spotlight dragging Snoop Dog with him on some tracks. Classic for a bit.
Haven't heard him in a while, my pops would play this from time to time. Good classics.
Classic Frank - Antonio adds more smoothness to it.
Planet Claire, Rock Lobster, and some other stuff. I think we were accustomed to the Love Shack and Roam era.
And then there was Iggy Pop. I wonder what the masses thought about these guys when the music dropped in the 60s?
