1001 Albums Summary

I have of course heard "Layla" and "Bell Bottom Blues," but I don't think I've heard the rest of the album. Let's see! Really like the sound of "I Looked Away," just sort of a rocking, rollicking number that showcases some good bluesy Clapton vocals. "Bell Bottom Blues" is long as fuck--longer than I remembered. Great though. "Keep on Growing" is a great little 'I wish i was a better man' type of song. Love this one. Rockin'. "I Am Yours"--kind of a trippy, psychedelic number. Cool, but not my fave.

This is one of the greatest albums of all time, for sure. Excited for a full listen-through. 1. Thunder Road. One of my favorite songs of all time. What else needs to be said? 2. "Tenth Avenue Freezeout" - an awesome song. I never get sick of hearing it. Jammy, rollicking, fun. Great lyrics. 3. "Night" - not as familiar with this song, but I like it! It's slower, but Bruce has that deep and guttural tone going in his voice, which I really dig. 4. "Backstreets" - this album has...almost every one of his really big hits. 5. "Born to Run" - what a phenomenal title track. Of course this is what he called the album. it's fucking perfect. A+, no notes. 6. "She's the One"
