1001 Albums Summary

Very much enjoyed. Great sound and variety. Fun band!

Awful. Couldn’t get through it. Too aggressive for me.

Loved Motherless Children. What a jam!

The sheer volume of songs is impressive.

A nice variety of songs. Realized I had never really listened to Sheryl Crow past radio play. Enjoyed the album but tended to fade into the background.

Couple songs I really enjoyed. All in all not a bad album but didn’t leave a lasting impression.

I enjoyed this album. Aqualung, while lyrically it’s disturbing and disgusting, it’s a proper rock song. Love the bass work and how prominent the bass guitar is in so many songs. Also love the jazz flute!

Not sure why this album made the list. Several of his big hits are on it; lots of radio play but overall not a huge fan.

Funky jam sessions.

Surprised this is the album that made the list. Love the Eagles but I feel like their talent is showcased better elsewhere. There are a couple great songs though. And a few interesting creative decisions.

Not a genre I typically gravitate towards but I can appreciate the talent. Black Hole Sun was a pleasant surprise.

More cow bell!! Kidding…but not really. Was not prepared for a 13 minute instrumental. Very funky with an interesting exploration of sound. Personally I felt each song was a little too long; started to get repeatitive and boring. Could have done with 5-6 minute instrumentals versus 9-11. Great harmony on the few songs with words. Overall not bad. Honestly didn’t know what to expect.

Several songs gave me U2 vibes. Overall not a terrible album.

Woof! 👎🏽👎🏽 … Yeah “Grunge” is still not my thing

My first 5 star! I enjoyed every song except that last one. Loved the range of upbeat and ballads. Scenes from an Italian Restaurant is still my favorite.

Just awful. Sounded like a Beatles reject. I mean I love Pink Floyd but please stop shining you crazy diamond….stick to gardening.

Not sure why this is on the list. Very repetitive, especially after the 4th or 5th song. Didn’t have it but not impressed.

I was surprisingly underwhelmed and didn’t love this album. Great harmony though, without a doubt. But not my favorite

Repetitive, a little boring and monotonous. Thought I would have enjoyed it more.

Happy feelings was a jam. Overall enjoyed. Definitely a side of Earth Wind and Fire I’d never heard.

Not my favorite of his but solid.

All time favorite

Did not enjoy at all. Disconnected, boring, random. Very disappointing.

Did not listen

Never heard of him. Unclear why he’s on the list, multiple times. But not bad. Easy listening but somewhat monotonous by the end.

Not sure why this is a must listen album. Sounds like the score for a Hitchcock movie or a campy spy movie. Interesting experimentation with sound but not anything I would want to voluntarily listen to unaccompanied.

Couldn’t get past the first few songs. Decent guitar work but her voice is so annoying. Lyrics were weak.

Hard to listen to start to finish, with all of the vulgar and offensive lyrics but I still love Eminem. While harsh and angry, the way he strings rhymes together is always impressive.

Did enjoy as much as I thought I would. A little mundane and monotonous. His voice became annoying after awhile

Love her voice. Tragic ending for a rising star.

Always an enjoyable listen. The simplicity of the piano in The Scientist paired with the subtle build. Just lovely. Overall a great album in my book.

Loved the first song and enjoyed the next couple but lost interest by the end

Michael said it best—a few greatest hits that are big on the radio and that’s why I thought I liked them. Aside from the select few, their songs are random and silly. Rhapsody is a unique song with many layers and components but it’s overplayed and overrated.

Loved start to finish. Nothing more to say, than has already been said.

Just so sad. The whole album. The pain you feel.

Certainly interesting. Heroes is great but the rest, not my favorite. And musical experience to say the least. He experimented with sound…sometimes bordering on cacophony. Wouldn’t come back to.

Agree with all of the above. A few great songs stand out…the rest just fade into the background.

A few decent songs that I already knew I “liked” but the album in general is just boring. Did not enjoy…but they’re ok as a band

Couldn’t get into it

Not my taste

Couldn’t get past the first few songs

Super strong start but they kind of lost me towards the end of the album. Great band either way.

Easy listening. He has a nice voice. Nice background music with a low key vibe

The 2nd half of the album was good and sounded more like The Police. First half was certainly different but not great. I applaud the experimentation with sound but it didn’t pan out for me. Synchronicity II is a winner.

Love everything about this and him.

No one song stands out as a real winner but overall easy listening. Love Neil young, just not one of his more memorable installations.

Sounds like the love child of Lauryn Hill and Amy Winehouse. And I’m ok with that. Love the beats and bongo presence. Definitely some highs on the album.

British ska, how fun! Nothing exceptional but it makes you happy. A lot of the songs remind me of pub/drinking songs where everyone chimes in to sing. Love the reggae/Jamaican influence.

This would have been the result if Ross from Friends had a band. A bunch of random sounds set to a house beat. “Jilted” is a perfect album title. Couldn’t get past the first couple songs.
