My 1001 Albums Journey

Derek & The Dominos

2/5

Great material for one of those blues dad cover bands that meet up once a week to drink mediocre beer and ward off their incoming midlife crises. The music is well played, but it’s not really my thing and it doesn’t convince me to explore it further. However, it still has a certain vibe. Most tracks are very forgettable, and the album lacks cohesion. Notable tracks: "Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out" "Little Wing" "Layla" Favorite track: "Little Wing"

(What's The Story) Morning Glory

Oasis

3/5

An unquestionably important album, though sadly outshined by one of its own tracks. The vibe is good, with a modern sound that still unmistakably has roots in blues and rock music. The record delivers on all the parameters that would make it a good album, but it’s not innovative enough for me and also doesn’t suit my subjective taste. It’s well played and I would maybe rate it a 6/10, but on this scale, it’s a solid 3.
