1001 Albums Summary

Dire Straits by Dire Straits

I enjoy these songs greatly, and I'm sad I had not listened to them earlier. The intro really caught me by surprise, and listening to "In the Gallery" is really such a vibe. This album is looking to score high for me

Electric Warrior by T. Rex

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone

It was good, but it didn’t strike me in the same way that the other albums have so far. I can enjoy some of these songs but others kind of lose me in the later parts of the album.

Blood On The Tracks by Bob Dylan

Fun album and I thought it was really enjoyable

Channel Orange by Frank Ocean

Queen II by Queen

Fun album, I understand why queen is so highly revered now

Sweet Baby James by James Taylor

Awesome album. I’ll be coming back for more

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers

Awesome album. I’ll be coming back for more

First Band On The Moon by The Cardigans

I like the light, whimsical sound of the album a lot

The Pleasure Principle by Gary Numan

Odessey And Oracle by The Zombies

Dust by Screaming Trees

Kid A by Radiohead

Scream, Dracula, Scream by Rocket From The Crypt

Exodus by Bob Marley & The Wailers

Tea for the Tillerman by Cat Stevens

Born To Be With You by Dion

Pretty solid album through and through, I would recommend it to people and listen to it again

If You Can Believe Your Eyes & Ears by The Mamas & The Papas

I had no idea this was the California dreaming album, I have heard that song since I was a child so it really brought back some memories there. Fire album

Future Days by Can

Spray is just an unsettling song. I feel like I’m waiting for something to happen this whole album. Listening to bel-air and the only thing I can think is I just want this to be over and I can’t believe there is another 13 minutes to go

The Number Of The Beast by Iron Maiden

This album got me hyped up for real

Double Nickels On The Dime by Minutemen

This album was a meandering pile of junk to me. The songs had no central theme, and much like one of the titles of their songs, it was “shit from an old notebook” and it felt that way. I wanted it to be over, I got whiplash going from song to song.

I liked it until I didn’t. It was around the song homeless that I stopped enjoying it and wished the album to be over, and seeing how many songs were left, I didn’t take it as a good sign. Overall, it started fun but if an album makes me want it to be over, it’s not getting rated well.
