1001 Albums Summary

An alternative classic…

Some iconic 90s song but nothing so original. I’d give it 3 1/2 stars but the system does r work that way.

An all time favorite! I love the be bop / cool jazz period of the late fifties and early sixties.

True alternative! Weird for weird sake in the best way.

It’s hard to listen to this and not hear the work that comes after. Judging it in its time and place is difficult. It’s great music and classic U2 at this point. It just doesn’t have the punch listening back as it did at the time.

Probably their most iconic album in the sense that it’s ubiquitous in music culture. The tracks are solid if varied with several songs that have remained radio mainstays.

This album is an excellent example of cashes versatility and willingness to explore his craft as an artist.

Much of the music on this album is repetitive. If you like one song, you’ll probably like them all. Psycho killer obviously gets the most attention because of its classic and enduring status but other than that, it’s listenable, but ultimately a little boring.

The voice is smooth and iconic. The music sounds like a lazy Sunday afternoon. My only issue with it is that it all sounds like a lazy Sunday afternoon. It could use a little bit of variety.

Exceptional! Alternative to the alternative of it’s time.

Very listenable but repetitive after a while. Lyrically a little tedious or little ingenious depending on your perspective.

One of their best.
