1001 Albums Summary

Very hit and miss. Superstition is the best Stevie Wonder song of all time, and other songs with similar funk (Maybe Your Baby) were also great. But there was a lot of cheese (You And I) and weak sauce (You Are The Sunshine)

Consistently dark except the one hit Lovesong, but I expect nothing less from The Cure

I really like Bjork, and this album has two of her bigger hits, but it’s a bit too “experimental” to make it amenable to repeat listenings all the way through

This album had glimmers of what they would become, but they were still finding themselves at this point.

Layla is a fantastic song but the rest of the album mostly blurred together

Elvis Costello is an acquired taste that I have not yet acquired. Watching the Detectives was decent though.

It was decent, but probably more important as a moment in musical history than as a great Cash album

Could this album BE any more 90s? Alright is a great track, though the rest struggle to stand out

Feeling Alright was a good hit, but this album is more notable as a stepping stone in Steve Winwood’s career

No More Mr. Nice Guy was a good hit, but this album is more notable as a stepping stone in Alice Cooper’s career than as a great album on its own.

Mostly notable as an early Kinks album, but no standout songs

Foo Fighters first album is a classic

I don't get the fuss. This was not fun to listen to.

Early Cure, not bad but not yet great

Prince is not my favorite, but no respect the craft put into this album

A bit too honky tonk, but bookended by 2 great songs

Much better than the first

A couple of top notch songs but mostly sounds like a Radiohead cover band

A nice stepping stone on the way to industrial sounds like Nine Inch Nails

Prince is not my favorite, but no respect the craft put into this album

I can’t believe someone with ears let the singers near a microphone.
