1001 Albums Summary

Really really enjoyed this. Such a funky, groovy album, but one that holds so much weight behind it, too. Every new track just made me feel excited to hear it. Fascination, Life, and the title track are definite favourites. Bowie never disappoints!

I can totally see why this is considered a great. Not quite for me, but Ella Fitzgerald truly has such an enchanting voice, and I could just listen to it all day. That alone gets points from me. There’s something really sweet and lighthearted about the lyrics on this one (“Let’s Call The Whole Thing Off” stood out for this especially) but ultimately it’s a soft, gentle thing that has my full respect, but not necessarily something I’d return to again now that I’ve heard it.

Wasn’t a massive fan of this one unfortunately. Even though it’s intentional, it almost feels like she’s singing out of tune, and it was jarring.

Sadly I didn’t take to this one. It all felt very same-y and a bit drab.

I LOVED this! So fun and charming. Really reminded me of Billy Joel. Really glad to have found this one, definitely my favourite so far (except for Bowie of course).
