1001 Albums Summary

Electric Ladyland by Jimi Hendrix

It sounded alright but it wasn’t for me. I think there where too many guitar rifts that went unappreciated by me.

Urban Hymns by The Verve

Great mix and good vibes. Most songs sound like they’d be played in the background of a 2004 drama tv show season ended as the main character drives down route 1 in California with the top down right after breaking up with their partner. Bittersweet symphony and Weeping Willow were solid stand outs.

The Village Green Preservation Society by The Kinks

Very surprising album for me. Never listened to the Kinks before but found myself really enjoying every song. Last of the Steam Powered Trains bass line when the song vamps is super cool!

Hybrid Theory by Linkin Park

I Should Coco by Supergrass

Talking Heads 77 by Talking Heads

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

Second half was really good, first half didn't really get me

Third by Portishead

This made me feel a way I've never felt before. In the worst possible way.

All Things Must Pass by George Harrison

Holy cow this album was so stinking long. I think I would enjoy it more if it was just the best songs from it.
