1001 Albums Summary

Wild. Did not expect to be impressed. I thought it was just another in a long line of punk bands. The themes weren't overwhelming, and I can see why this is a core punk album. The reggae inspired track "Police & Thieves" was unexpectedly decent. "Career Opportunities" and "Garageland" were my favorite tracks.

Not a huge fan. Rococo is when the album got less bad. The whole nostalgic sad-boy themes didn't do it for me. Sprawl II was decent, but that's about it. The best songs featured the female vocals. Not sure what else to say. Not the worst, but not great either. Anyways, that's my review!

It's the Beatles. Obviously they are fantastic. This is in the "later Beatles" side of the Beatles, which I prefer. Someone discovered psychedelics before writing and recording this. Probably Dr. Robert. Not my favorite album, but a good one nonetheless. Yellow Submarine is an absolute classic and is hands down the best song on the album. Eleanor Rigby is good too, but for different reasons. There are some great songs here, but the best stuff is the first half of the album. It sort of falls off on the second half, once Yellow Submarine ends. Definitely worth a listen.

Darn good. I've heard almost all of these songs without ever knowing the band. Easy listening. I was rather impressed, although I didn't bother listening to the multiple versions of the songs.

Wow. Now this is music. She's like the female version of Nat King Cole. Smooth jazz. Cozy 50s vibes. Big mood. I could listen to this all day. Thankfully, it's over 3 hours long, so I can do exactly that.

Objectively good but not my style. She has a strange voice, but is very good on the piano.

Not a fan.

Not bad. Still not convinced I like disco.

Fantastic. An absolute classic. I didn't use to love CCR, but I definitely do now.

Not good. Maybe just ok. Too much edgy vocals ruining an otherwise fun vibe. Talking Heads was a clear inspiration here. Post-punk may have some good albums, but this isn't on my list of recommendations.

Not bad. Some good songs, mostly mediocre songs. Not my favorite, not anything I'd seek out, but not anything I'd skip if it was on someone else's radio.

Sounds like a rough Smashing Pumpkins. I like it.

Today I learned I really dislike the Beastie Boys. They've got 3 good songs (none of which are on this album), and the lead singer is incredibly annoying. The lyrics are foul, but if there was a purely-instrumental version of this album, I'd probably like it.

Classic

Not bad, but not really.my jam. I see the appeal, but she doesn't stand out that much, and calling her "the best" seems a bit overblown. Very 90s.

Classic. Minus one star for being a live album.

not bad, feels a bit dated

Duh.

Easy listening. I've heard these songs before, and I've heard of Steely Dan, but I never knew to put the two together.

Not bad. Feels like just another album, and I don't understand why it's so special.

See the album title.

Eh. Not my preferred style.

If it weren't for the lead singer this would just be an ok band. His vocals are what defines the band.

Not bad. Very doo-wop. I've heard a lot of these songs before, and I guess now I know where they all came from.

Eh.

Not terrible.

Obviously.

Pretty good

Eh

Not terrible

Now I know where the meme comes from

She's pretty good

Listened to this every day in college because my sad white girl roommate blasted it through the walls.

Meh

Knockoff Beatles, but from the pre-psychadelic era.

Just okay

Good album

It's a vibe. Just not mine exactly.

God awful.

Not good

It's just...there

It's ok

Not bad

Mediocre band.

Christmas!

Garbage.

Ska is ok

Eh. I dislike live albums. The band is ok, though.

Ok. Not my first pick.

Eh.

Not terrible, but not great either.

Pretty good

Starts ok, ends weakly. This is my least favorite Beatles era

A decent album.

Pretty good

Decent.

Surpassingly good, but not my preferred genre

Great, but not their best album

Decent

Actually good.

Meh

Just ok.

Decent album.

I preferred their first album.

Garbage

This is the most stereotypical background music. It's just forgettable lite rock

Eh.

Not bad. Not my style, but they are a good band with good songs. It fell off a bit towards the end.

Awful.

Eh. Feels like I'm wading through bad music recommendations.

Not good.

Only good in comparison to the other awful albums on this list.

Discount Kurt Cobain with clean socks

This album sucks.

Pompous. Artistic. Garbage. I get to listen to some random dude's idea of good music. It's not good music though. It's just mediocre.

No.

Not bad

not terrible

No

Meh

Meh

It's David Bowie

Hippie garbage
