1001 Albums Summary

I haven’t listened to but my daughter (of course) would give it 100 stars.

Brings back memories. Loved it

Tried to listen to but …

Listened to it for the first time. Enjoyed Ella singing the standard.

Good album but don’t love it.

Heard the songs over the years but fully enjoyed listening to it.

One of the first albums I ever bought after my parents gave me Rush ‘All the Worlds a Stage’ and the Beatles ‘Meet the Beatles’ as a 16 year old for Christmas. Got me ssoooooo into music. Lead me to finding and loving new bands to this day as a 62 year old.

Started everything for the masses and still relevant all these years later.

Listened years ago and enjoyed then (3.5 then) but hasn’t held up to the test of time.

Classic 80s album

Classic 80s album. Great songs

One of my first albums - enjoyed it but liked didn’t excite me like my nosier albums at the time - Rush 2112.

Fantastic. Even on Kurt Cobain’s top 50 albums list in his journals. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-cobain-50/id1667648172?i=1000662513361

That first opening sets it up for that the rest of the album. Wow

GREAT ALBUM. Got me into me and have me hooked for life.

Classic intro to Bjork.

The classic 99s album.

The cover says it all - a rocking album by a band in its prime.

Good intro for me to hip hop

Great intro to British punk.

Fantastic fantastic a pure classic. Her voice choice of songs is a masterpiece that she unfortunately did not have long live to see what it has become.

Bum bum bum. Set the standard.

Hell ya. This is it. Classic Aussie Rock

Intro to classic southern rock from GA/FLA. Simple Man is a true gem.

Love this album. Five count en five stars

Was so excited to see the artwork for this to pop up. Instantly recognizable for the cover and automatically hearing the opening chords of Disorder in my head. Layer on Ian’s voice and you have one of the most influential albums ever.

Was shocked by the death of Bon Scott but the band came back w a vengeance and set themselves at the top of rock mountain with this.

ONE OF THE BEST SONGS EVER. ONE OF THE BEST SONGS EVER. ONE OF THE BEST SONGS EVER. ONE OF THE BEST SONGS EVER. ONE OF THE BEST SONGS EVER. ONE OF THE BEST SONGS EVER. ONE OF THE BEST SONGS EVER. ONE OF THE BEST SONGS EVER. ONE OF THE BEST SONGS EVER.

Never really liked the band. Average album.

Have the Faith

Fantastic album that got a 1,000 college radio stations to spin up 1,000,000 new U2 fans. Great album

Just listened to this the other day and it has stood up to the test of time

Really set him apart from other artists of the time. Really imaginative work.

Rolling raucous but not really up my alley. Good but not great.

Set up a generation for intro to alternative and indie music.

They played there back catalog as well as some great unknown covers. Well done and set the standard for MTV Unplugged.

Hey hey my my I love this album.

Most consider this the start of grunge. They’re wrong but a great way to get into it.

I know people love the Beatles and their melodies but for the most part I don’t listen to lyrics.

Today is the day after Ozzy died and 18 days after his final show. A million bands owe their existence to this album.

My initial intro to Radiohead that portends greatness.

Not as good as Exodus in my mind but a damn good album.

Classic w great songs.

A summer classic. Buddy introduced it to me and blasted it in his jeep all Summer.

Seminal record that is part of the start of punk a few years later. Iggyz’s snarl says it all.

Summer of my wedding including a fly in my Chardonnay

Fast car is the bomb

That first song sets the up the rest of the album.

Not quite the first punk album but definitely the one that had a large part of the world talking. Talking about how the world was going to hell because of the music and punk style. Something to be proud about actually!!

Some classics. Good into to souther rock and carries to next level by Drive By Truckers.

Got into Echo by randomly finding Crocodiles in a local record store. The atmosphere, vocals and guitar was impressive. Ocean Rain took it up 5 notches.

Good but not great Zep

Good album and nice intro to Elbow.

Bam innovative guitar that changed the world.

Brilliant bluesy master work.

All Cure albums should be on here.

Wow. What an album. Introduced me to post punk.

Good strong album. Liked his stuff but didn’t love it all at the time. Come to appreciate him.

Good intro to industrial rock and punk.

Ah the Smiths. Morissey and Jimmy Marr made some wonderful songs. Too bad they’ll never out out new music.

First time I heard Rock Lobster was as a 14 year old young straight man in a lesbian bar in San Antonio. The song came on and the place went wild. Packed the dance floor. Great intro to a great band.

Love this band after a roommate turned me on to them.

Wow has Nick Cave changed from this album.

My sister got this when it came out and I’d sneak into her room and listen to it. Quite the impression and holds up pretty well to time.
