1001 Albums Summary

Pretzel Logic by Steely Dan

The Low End Theory by A Tribe Called Quest

KIWANUKA by Michael Kiwanuka

Really special album full of great vibes, wonderful mixes and heartfelt lyrics

Zombie by Fela Kuti

Be by Common

Jagged Little Pill by Alanis Morissette

Bookends by Simon & Garfunkel

Ahead of its time, along the lines of pet sounds and sgt. peppers. A few of the tracks are skips, but, at his best, Paul Simon's ability to turn mundanity into poetry, then turn poetry into truly astonishing melodies is unrivaled.

This Is Hardcore by Pulp

Not bad, but somehow didn't seem genuine- like it was trying too hard to be sexy and cool. had some real highlights, but a lot of mediocrity as well.

Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere by Neil Young & Crazy Horse

Some really great songwriting on here, but also some mediocrity.

Live At The Harlem Square Club by Sam Cooke

Electric performance with impeccable vocals

(What's The Story) Morning Glory by Oasis

Whats the Story still holds up for the most part. the title track is anthemic

Different Class by Pulp

Not my favorite, good sounding, but so self absorbed that it is off-putting

GI by Germs

Hardcore Punk, just not my jam

Planet Rock: The Album by Afrika Bambaataa

Funky proto hip hop. great for a party

Still incredible, but doesnt hold up as well as I thought it would
