1001 Albums Summary

Fantastic start 😜, good organs, some nice songs but overall not 100% my taste!

Classic album of course! For my taste some fillers on it too…Could have been an all-time favourite 12 song album for me! Absolutely loved Revolution 9, especially with headphones on!

Decent album! No remarks! No goosebumps but no bad tracks either…

Absolute classic! Moonage Daydream, Starman,...some of my all time favourite Bowie tracks.

I get it why people love this so much, but it still isn't my cup of tea after 2 listening sessions of the album...

I can't stand Jazz...unfortunately (for me)...it was a bit of a torture to listen the full album...

Good Pop/Rock album...Nice cover Iron Man!

Never heard it before, nice one to go running at night! Good solid, nice voice!

Never even heard of the artist before and for sure won’t remember him in a few weeks time…nothing special, decent hiphop grooves, lyrics don’t stand out for me…

Masterpiece

Never heard of this band...based upon the reviews I expected the worst album ever...but in fairness, I thougt it wasn't that bad at all...some songs could actually be a Beatles songs with some small rearrangements...decent vocals...sometimes the overload of sitar/other strings were too much for me...but what do you expect of a band calles The Incredible String Band...the name says it all...

Never was a great Muse fan but this album Rocks! Good variety in songs also! Better vocals of Matt than on the earlier albums (too much breathing before each line he sings)...

A bit boring...

CLASSIC album, best Nirvana album, Top 50 all-time albums...

Solid Country, good voice, sometimes too much...themes are always the same (wrong men apparantly)

Few good hits, overall nothing special

Opening track is great, rest a bit mediocre for me…

What a nice album...last track bye is so beautiful...

Enjoyable

Best Radiohead album. Period!

What a revelation! Didn't know the artist before, but won't forget him!

Shouldn't be in the list for me...not one excellent song, not one good song, at best some average songs...standout Zilch says it all...for me best song on the record...Mister Dobalena, Mister Bob Dobalena!

What an opening riff!

Special voice, some beautiful songs! Liked it against expectatipns!

3 classics, some average songs and some fillers..

Jazz is not my cup of tea..still isn't...even "worse" than the previous experience...It's my problem, not the artist/album...I am used to structured music, on the beat...all things this album is not...

Solid album, great tunes, Love Mike's voice!

When Mariah sings, and I mean sings, then she has a beautiful voice...when she moans (which she does a lot on this album) it's a kind of singing that I don't like..album has some good songs, but too much soft R&B/Pop which was popular in the late 90's...for me a bit dated...but liked the album better than my expectations were...

Some excellent songs but unfortunately some arty-farty-poems miscasts too for me...

Classic opener, all the rest was one same song to me, but enjoyable!

Enjoyable!

Quite ok…

Good voice, no exceptional good songs for me

Album shouldn't be on the list! Really love the debut album of Velvet Undergound, but this is total crap to me. Normally I don't give 1 stars (especially for genres that I don't "like"), but since I really like rock etc. I have to give this a 1...not 1 goood song on the record, really enoying stuff...

Solid Ambient

Solid album!

If an album makes you wanna go to the nearest Irish Pub, drink a lots of Guinness dance and sing the night away with your friends…then it’s my pint of Guinness!

Average good!

Too average for me...no standouts...Would certainly not be in my 1001 list...

Good album

School is a classic song, rest pretty average...

In my memory it was even better...but still a good album!

Very good!

Great album with one of my favorite Beatles song on it “I am only sleepin”…

Good variety in songs

Mmmm really don't know why this made the list...

Good

Never heard of the group before...listening was a pleasant, interesting ride...

1 absolute classic song (Lost Cause), rest is just "good" which is good enough!

Beautiful, special voice

Jam Music

Just good

Great Soul/Funk

Really liked this one...unlike anything else...

Not my cup of tea

Really nice production!!

Classic!

Solid Blues Rock with great ending!

Maybe my favorite NC&TBS albums! I always liked them but this was the first album that really got me stuck into them (for life)..really love the great piano, nice lyrics, GREAT production,...Oh God, this is definately my favourite NC&TBS album!

Only knew XTC from their excellent hits. Looked forward to an entire album. Altough it's good, it never lived up to my expectations...Dear God is 5+ stars worth of course!

Homeward bound...what a song!!!!

Great stuff by Mancunians!

Not my stuff...

Very very good album! Nice surprise!

Some nice covers

Very good album if you are on LSD, not for listening on a monday morning at work....

Simple: very good!

Great sound/voice! Something special, stands out!

Great title!!! Some great songs, has its place on the list but I feel the overall production could be better!

Interesting stuff!

Some good songs but overall don't really like the "high voices" of Van the Man...

Love Queen (greatest hits) haven't found a full Queen album yet that I really really like...

Fantastic album, period! Something fresh at the time!

What a voice! good songs! bring me the sun, pour me a wine and let me enjoy Al Green...perfect Spring day!

Great opening track, rest is "just" Marvin Gaye to me, which is more than OK!

Good stuff!

3 stars for the nice voice as country isn't my cup of tea...

Excellent for in a hip coffee bar in London

Just good!

Good tunes, even without using pot...

Some excellent songs! My 15 and 13 year old Kids love this album, I do totally understand!

Good '80's rock...echoooooo

3 Stars because of Killer Queen (5*+ song)...Yet the third album by Queen (in first 80 albums)...still the same feeling about them: KILLER BEST OFF...but I really don't enjoy their albums as much as I would like to...

Why o why…incredible this album made the list…gives me hope in making a living as a musician

The Stones the way I like them! Not 1 bad song on this album!

Mmmm... heard them Live last year at a festival....wasn't convinced...after hearing the album still not convinced...sometimes the voice of Perry attracts me, but more often it's annoying me...

Great album...

Damn..hoped to give Janis more stars...

Nice collab! Good songs!

First thought: Christina...ohhhhh nooooooo BUT it's actually a pretty good album! Has it's place on the list imo!

Started out really good, but towards the end I got a little bit bored..

For me the best album EVER. SOOOOOO much more than Punk Rock! A true classic!

Summer vibes, some nice songs!

Not a big fan of Gangsta rap...but like this one!

Headphones are a must!

Let the sunshine in! Good vibes! Much better than expected!

Mmmm…expected more…

Not too bad, not too good either...

My brain isn't still wired for Jazz...some inetresting snippits...recognised ones that are being used in modern music...so it must be great stuff for Jazz lovers!

Nice bonfire album...

Opening song is a blast! Rest doesn't have the same quality unfortunately...

Very, very good!

Björk, not a big fan...album wasn't even on list of essential Björk album...read some reviews and was really mentally prepared for the worse...But what a great album!!! Truly unique, had for me a "sacred feeling"...LOVED IT!

Just don't like the organ stuff...

Good one, in my memory it was even better than 3 stars...

Damn, love The Smiths but album is not really one of their best...

If the first song you ever wrote as a band is Mr. Brightside, than your debut album must be good! It's good! Great if you like the sound! Production could have been a bit better imo...

One of those bands; you get them or you don't...if you do, they are really amazing...I do my love!

Nice voice, some good songs

Wilco ooh Wilco...good songs, good voice, good musicians and still it doesn't crawl under my skin...

Second Missy album on the list, even better...damn didn't knew I liked it at all!

Great album title!!! If you're really into Progrock, then this is your shit! Not a progrocker but can appreciate the craftmanship and good songs!

Sexy as hell!

Starts great but after a while i lost a bit my interest...As I love the hits from Brel, I was a bit dissappointed, especially because this is a live album...and Brel is one of the all time great performers...An artist who leaves his heart en soul on stage...

Damn, this is not for me...the volume went softer and softer on my headphones as Van the Man kept screaming and screaming...Just don't like his moaning screams...lower voice, "nice"...one good song for me when the volume went higher : The Way Young Lovers Do...

Really liked this one! Not familiar with these Bostonians, so nice meeting!

Pure, real pure beauty!

Good, but at bit onedimensional

That's why I follow this list! Nice discovery! Never heard of Gene Clark, after a bit of internet search...The Byrds, off course...makes sense, but really liked this album!

25 degrees, sunny in Belgium…what a timing for playing Bob! One of a kind!

Oooh no, not Jazz again....first thoughts...BUT what a good funky Jazz stuff! Really liked it!

Great album for running!

Classic Metal album, just classic!

Great album, great production!

First and last song: RUBBISH...second song not quite into it...Afterwards I cranked up the volume and really got into this stuff...unexpeceted!

Nice voice, music ain't bad either but for me the glue doesn't stick...It justifies why I've never heard of her before!

Decent

Album came out when I was 17, an age where your brain is a sponge for music...never heard of this album before...and I know why, no real hits, too much instrumental songs...it was like sitting in an arty farty hotel lounge...don't really get it why this album is on the list...

Dark bass and drums! Haunting record!

Love this version of S&G!

Pretty good!

Must have been groundbreaking at the time, but wished I would have loved it more than 3 stars!

The Funk is not in me! Good for 10 minutes but got a bit bored...

Eruption…if all the rest were stinkers, the album still would have at least 3 stars!

Great stuff! Didn’t knew this one! That’s why I do this “project”

Nice discovery!

Beatles, again...good, again...

Great swamp music! Love John Fogerty! Classic!

Kinf of music that's nice when you hear it in a record store selecting some other stuff...it's not bad but there are 1001 bands that play this kind of music that are way better...didn't knew these guys before, won't remember them...

TREVOR HORN! WHAT A PRODUCTION! Great songs, great bass! sometimes the songs are a bit the same, but very good '80 pop with a beautiful voice of Martin Fry

Wow, way much better than expected!

Fun for a while

Not a big fan of MJ, stars are mainly for the great production of Quincy Jones!

Love the sound (drums/guitar) but didn't alway like the pitch of singing (personal flavour)

Actually quite good! Never heard of the movie but willing to see it based upon the soundtrack!

Really liked it, cool laid-back melancholy stuff!

A big like for my first Billy Joel album ever heard!

Classic "metal grunge"

Hold me closer Tiny Dancer!!! Highlight of the album, by far! Rest of the songs don't live up to this standard, which is no shame :-)

This coud easily be a 4,5 star album for me, if it wasn't so long...perhaps it's not fair to judge it this way as I only listened to it once (as it's so long)...sometimes Billy's voice started to annoy me a bit...some really really good songs on this! Maybe it will grow on me if I give it a couple more spins...

Great Sixties Stuff with 2 absolute classics on it!

Great album title! Great songs but...I don't like Guy Garvey's voice for a full album unfortunately...

Weird stuff...but very interesting...unique...

A bit boring for my taste…

Good Reggae

Great album!

WAUW! Great album! Sort of greatest Hits!

Never heard of Wire, was OK but didn't broke my heart

5 stars, no more words needed!

A day after the death of the great Brian Wilson...really good album, especially the last 3 songs

Good

Good album, first 2 songs all-time classics!

I was 13 when this came out, was intrigued by the video-clips and sort of liked the songs but couldn't get it...at 44 I am old enough to understand and feel the "magic" of Björk...Truly unique artist!

Better than expected for a "prog" rock band!

Britpop, I was more into Oasis…but Blur had some really good singles!

Good ska! Some classic songs

Jazz…still don’t get it…maybe one day…

5 stars! A lot of hits! Most of the non-hits more than good enough!

Some good songs, but a whole album is too much for me...

Not for me...but certainly no place on this list...

Revelation! Nice vibe about this album! Never heard of this group, but liked it!

Mmmm diifcult one...can't say it's bad but most of it sounded the same and I always thought that the Toy Story hit was beginning...You've got a friend in me...

Can I kick it?? Good album

Better than expected! Good tunes, decent rapping! Some good lyrics

Maybe one of the best albums of the nillies for me…

Band of the hour…not decade…not good enough for the list imo

At first it was nothing special to me but it kind of grew on me...

Yes? No, not for me...don't really like them or get them...

Great Live album, nice vocals and guitars and some prette good songs too

No no no...no place on this list imo...

A bit short but good

What an album, what a talent!

Love The Kinks!

60's reincarnated...sounded a lot like (good) Beatles stuff

Great 80's sound!

Some of the Boss best songs on it!

Time capsule!

Overall not that good…wasn’t bad either

Good

Some nice tunes

Really liked it!

Very good!

Maybe my favourite PJ album!

Some very good songs but overall not THAT great for me...enjoyed it!

Special...a bit musicians music for me...

Classic '90s album with some huge hits!

My Bloody Ears! What a bunch of crap music...not for me at all...worst album on the list so far...by far...

Love the Who but wished the album would have been much better!

Not memorable

Pure beauty! Man I Liked this!!!

Just 1 or 2 song too short of a 5/5...but like all Zep Albums...pretty solid!

Enjoyable

Best Funkalbum I've ever heard!

No real standouts for me…solid album

Nice listening

Good Manc Music!

Mmmm very very difficult to "judge"...not for listening during work...overall don't liked it that much...

Special, unique band...

Good album, but not every Marley album should be in this list...kill your darlings please!

Good country...wham Bam thank you ma'm

Unique sound, Kung Fu single best album cover :-)

Loved the ambient tracks!

Kinda liked the music but the voice isn't tickling me in a right way

Not a lasting listening experience

Not 1 bad song and a lot of real classics!

Editor of this list must be a huge The Beta Band fan...2 down 1 to go I guess...not my band...best song was sample driven (Daydream by The Wallace Collection...curious if that band made the list...should be on it, if only for this classic song)

Was a long time ago at Rock Werchter and went to see them just to watch the legendary Paul Simonon. Wasn't blown away by the band's performance then...certainly not a bad album but not really list worthy to me...

RnR!

Good but other Funkadelic album was better

Mmmm albums like these make me lose faith in this list...Not by far best or most influantial QOTSA album...for me no place in this list...unless you make a 1001 stoner album list....

Some good songs

Not bad but I just don't really like the singing...certainly not for a full album but that's a matter of personal tatste...

Some very good songs, classic '60 vibes!

Great album!

Great one

It's so good that it isn't on streaming...mmmm...strange...

Good production! Interesting album

Good album

Actually pretty good! Never heard of them.

WTF,!? 1 "good" "karaoke song", rest not bad to hear at 3 in the morning at Graspop Metal Meeting café or something like that...Should never make the list...wonder what really good albums didn't make the cut because of this parody stuff...

Solid

Listened to it some days ago and can't really remember anything...wasn't as bad as I thought it would be...

Not bad!

Maybe best Metal/Hard Rock album ever...

Actually first Jazz stuff I liked...To remember, Piano driven Jazz is my kinda Jazz

Great band

Special! Liked most of the songs and certainly the overall vibe

Nice vibe, good vibes

Some nice soundscapes

Liked the album but misses 1 or 2 real "bangers" maybe for my taste

Kan (Ye) = ABSOLUTE SCUMBAG/LOONEY/... "Art" isnt the same as the artist for me... Therefore: Very good production! Good voice Some good songs But a lot of typicall rap stuff (drugs/woman/d*ck/...) not my kinda "art"...

There is the hit, but rest of album not my stuff...kind of boring to me...

Bit boring as I am not a bij country/western fan

Not the best The Kinks album...but love The Kinks!

Lazarus one of best Bowie songs but rest of the album not really my stuff

Damn good!

Not a Jazz man...still not...maybe when I am older, sitting in a quite cafe with a wiskhey and feeling a bit melancholy...maybe

Sabotage probably one of the best songs that year, great clip as well...couldn't get enough of it...Opener with sure shot very good but after midway the standard droooooops a bit for me..album could have been way better if shorter and 1 or 2 extra iconic tracks...

Unique band/sound!

Love The Jam!

Musician's music, but liked this one!

Liked it a lot!

Hidden Gem!

Every song passes, but not a single one "sticks" or gets to me...

1994 - 14 years old, Kurt gone (not a big fan at that time) and the "void" was filled with mainstream punkrock! Dookie, Smash, Stranger Than Fiction,...Simple, good times...

Notingh memorable...

"Better a spectacular failure, than a benign success"

Excellent album

Mmmm not really liked it but some "decent" songs...but unlike the track "Never Say Never Again", it will be probably never again for me...
