1001 Albums Summary

Easy jam to have on in the background.

Open to close, this album is *solid*.

The novelty of this album got me through the first few songs. However, the longer I listened, the more I felt trapped at a renaissance fair on pirate weekend.

Live / Dead is such a slog, I can't even get through a single song in the entirety of my commute... twice over. This is torture, not entertainment.

Gives me later-Beatles vibes. Not bad to listen to, but not something I'm adding to my rotation.

A little too creepy at times. Overall, interesting to listen through once.

Giving strong 'vacation montage in a 90's movie' vibes.

A classic that brought us the absolutely bangers Eleanor Rigby, Yellow Submarine, Good Day Sunshine, and Got To Get You Into My Life. An easy 5 for me.

I'm not sure I like spicy Toy Story...

This album was not what I expected based off of the two songs I know from it. It was an enjoyable listen through, but I won't be adding it to my normal rotation.

Literal noise.

This is not something that would be on my playlist, but an album I can respect, nonetheless.

I'm not a country music person but I enjoyed this album. It's also quite short (only ~34 minutes).

Look, Bob Dylan is not a good singer. However, he is a decent songwriter. That said, this album is slow and boring as hell.

Wish this wasn't a live album. Or at least that they cut down or (or out completely) the talking/introductions, etc.

I'm probably rating this album a star higher than it really should be because I'm nostalgic for 60's music. I will say, though, I do not like the remastered version of Help Me, Rhonda. The original is way better. Overall, an album that makes me want to drive to the beach with the windows rolled down.

Enjoyably infectious funk.

Simply, a classic. It's hard not to appreciate a building block of music to come.

Confession: I am not a Pink Floyd fan, nor a Prog Rock fan. However, I do really appreciate the flow and composition of this album. While I'm not going to throw this on for a listen, I'll give respect where respect is due.

There were a few songs I enjoyed, but overall, the album fell flat for me.

I think I would give this a 3.5 if possible, but I can't, so 3 it is. I was really excited to see this album on the list, seeing as I love thesingles from it. Time to Pretend, Kids, and Electric Feel absolutely slap, and, in my opinion, they carry the rest of the album. The second half of the album is unremarkable. Not terrible, but quite forgettable. TLDR; the singles will forever be in my rotation, but I'm skipping on the remainder of the album.

Such an easy 5. Probably Green Day's best album- a winner all the way through.

There is one specific song on this album that has triggered a deeply buried memory of a different song I used to listen to a bunch in college. I have literally spent hours of my time attempting to find that other song. I am uncertain whether this helps or hurts my rating of In Our Heads.

At first I was bummed because it's another live album, but I didn't find that to be a detractor at all. A fantastic album- great pacing and the live recording is near indistinguishable from the studio recording. Cupid is one of my favorite songs ever; I was chuffed to see it included.

An enjoyable listen with a strong social (prison) reform message.

Perhaps one of the best metal albums of all time. Banger after banger after banger. The easiest 5 I've given yet.

Not an album I ever would have picked up outside of it appearing here. I enjoyed it enough that I let it loop multiple times, back-to-back. Impressive that this was her debut album.

Fun and catchy. I found this album to be just a touch longer than I think it needed to be though.

1) Before listening to this album, I'd only heard Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This). I was surprised how consistent the rest of the album is to Sweet Dreams. 2) This feels incredibly obtuse, but I never knew Eurythmics was 50% Annie Lennox. 3) If this isn't an 80's time capsule, I don't know what is.

For a brief second I thought I had accidently started playing Escape (The Piña Colada Song). Alas, no.

There were a few songs I could have done without but, overall, I really enjoyed this album. The bridge from Cowboy Song to The Boys Are Back in Town was just *chef's kiss*.

This album is a 4.7 to me, but since I can't do 4.7 and 4 seems criminally low, I'm rating it a 5. There were a few misses for me, but overall, I really enjoyed it. Just One Fix is infectiously good. I listened to that song no less than 7 times yesterday (and an additional 3 today). I would not be surprised if J.O.F. was the inspiration for Rammstein's Du Hast. This album is going in my rotation, and I'll for sure be checking out more Ministry.

The 2 singles were the only redeeming part of this album. 2 stars for those, 0 stars for everything else.

A solid, though very short, album. I'll never not be amused saying 'the song Bad Company, by Bad Company, on the album Bad Company.'

Do I like this album? Absolutely. However, I struggle to rate this album as high as other Beatles albums because there are *6* covers on this album: Till There Was You - Sue Raney Please Mr. Postman - The Marvelettes Roll Over Beethoven - Chuck Berry You Really Got a Hold on Me - The Miracles Devil in Her Heart - The Donays Money (That's What I Want) - Barrett Strong That makes 43% of this album covers. That said, it is a bop. "It Won't be Long" and "All My Loving" are highlights for me.

This album was fine. I was honestly expecting to enjoy it more but outside of the singles, it all kind of blurred together.

Don't think I've ever gone out of my way to listen to Alice Cooper, despite him being rather well known. That being said, this album is fine.

I believe Little Richard would have been as popular as Elvis but for racial prejudice and homophobia in the conservative 1950's landscape. Despite this, his influence on music and culture in general is undeniable.

Southern rock is really just the worst kind of rock, isn't it? Freebird is good when you have 10 minutes to spare, though.

Over half of the songs on this album still get regular radio play. If that's not a sign, I don't know what is.

I'll be honest, I've possessed a deep-seated hatred for U2 since 2014. I hold the band personally responsible for their Songs of Innocence album being force downloaded onto my iPod Touch. Imagine my young horror as shuffle brings up 'The Troubles' after listening to 'Timber' by Pitbull feat. Kesha. Jarring to say the least. I go to remove the album, as surely this must just be a mistake, right? WRONG. The album is unremovable. I spend the day dodging generic U2 song after generic U2 song in my attempts to listen to my own swill until I can access a computer to hide the album from my device. Truly a nightmare tale. Were we reviewing the Songs of Innocence album? No. Have I reviewed the All That You Can't Leave Behind album? No, not really. Am I still giving this a one star simply because it is U2. Yes. Yes I am.

The music was fine, but the album art is an atrocity against eyeballs everywhere.

I will argue that this is actually the best album ever produced. I think there's only 3 or 4 songs on it that don't currently get regular radio play. This is the gold (dust woman) standard for albums.

Very solid 4 for me. I don't think it's as good as their first album, however.

The singles off of this album are great, but the rest of the songs fall flat for me.

I've only ever heard Band on the Run prior to this listen through. I found the entire album enjoyable and catchy. I would listen to this again.

Found myself skipping every other song. Some were just so... whiny?

I wasn't expecting ska when I first saw the cover, but in retrospect, I should have expected ska.

This album is well done but seems very one note to me. It feels like something you would hear as background music in a coffee shop.
