1001 Albums Summary

Rubber Soul by Beatles

Morrison Hotel by The Doors

Arrival by ABBA

It's a fine album, but ABBA isn't my cup of tea. Some classic songs, and as a complete album it's solid if you're into that 70s pop sound.

Led Zeppelin II by Led Zeppelin

At San Quentin by Johnny Cash

Absolute classic of an album. A great snapshot into an iconic performance.

The Velvet Underground & Nico by The Velvet Underground

Good album worth a closer look. Might take some time to digest this one.

For Your Pleasure by Roxy Music

Almost wrote this off after the first couple of songs, but it is really quite good. Reminded me a lot of Franz Ferdinand and Bowie. Seen them described as Avant Garde, but this album is cohesive and well put together musically. Love the saxophone and all the cool effects and sounds.

Straight Outta Compton by N.W.A.

Junkyard by The Birthday Party

The Low End Theory by A Tribe Called Quest

The Wall by Pink Floyd

Bug by Dinosaur Jr.

Risque by CHIC

Foo Fighters by Foo Fighters

Lost In The Dream by The War On Drugs

Decent background music

Berlin by Lou Reed

Autobahn by Kraftwerk

Without any wider context, this album just seemed like decent background noise to me.
