1001 Albums Summary

In It For The Money by Supergrass

Physical Graffiti by Led Zeppelin

It’s good. Not THAT good.

Tapestry by Carole King

It’s really good. It’s just not something I often reach for. An extremely high 3.5- mostly just to distinguish it in this contest- a 3.

Remain In Light by Talking Heads

Kid A by Radiohead

Warehouse: Songs And Stories by Hüsker Dü

Friend you’ve got to fall and up in the air

Music in Exile by Songhoy Blues

The Predator by Ice Cube

Meat Puppets II by Meat Puppets

Different Class by Pulp

Very very good- just needs to grow on me I think- going with a high 3.5- rounded down.

Garbage by Garbage

Dear Science by TV On The Radio

Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys

It’s hyped for good reason.

Hot Fuss by The Killers

Time (The Revelator) by Gillian Welch

Sunshine Superman by Donovan

Arthur (Or the Decline and Fall of the British Empire) by The Kinks

You've Come a Long Way Baby by Fatboy Slim

Beyond Skin by Nitin Sawhney

Guys. This one is a 2 or a 2.5. It sounds great- there’s nothing objectionable really on it— it combines a bunch of interesting sounds—- but - those alone do not equal greatness. It’s just fine. I expect more from the albums on this list.in a vacuum - if I was in a better mood MAYBE I’d give it three- but for this exercise - it’s a big 2. My least fav thus far. There’s clearly a lot of talent/technical work on here- but- it feels lifeless. Just like someone who likes massive attack and various hindustani music melded them seamlessly without thinking as far as why they were doing it.

Duck Stab/Buster & Glen by The Residents

At Newport 1960 by Muddy Waters

Hms Fable by Shack

I want to give this a 2 for the site- because I find it hard to argue it’s essential in any way— but it’s a low three and a half in my book. Better than decent Brit pop.

Slanted And Enchanted by Pavement

Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & The Holding Company

Beauty And The Beat by The Go-Go's

Lupe Fiasco's Food & Liquor by Lupe Fiasco

Teenager Of The Year by Frank Black

This is a sky high three point five. Some great tunes- but it’s too long for its own good. And the good stuff comes later in the sequencing. Not 1001 essential.
