1001 Albums Summary

Was allright. Not really my cup of tea. "Help me" is a good song. The others all sound alike to me, tbh.

Only a few tracks bothered me (lengthy, boring, ...), so in general a very good album. Apart from the singles, take notice of "Black man", an excellent funky soul track.

I really don't like Neil Young's voice. But there are some great tracks on this record. Listened 3 times, got better with every listen. Might have to make this 4 stars in the future.

Loved it :) Johnny Rotten can't sing, but that doesn't matter.

Not my cup of tea. I don't think psychodelic rock is my kind of thing. All those tracks sounds the same...

Awesome!

Great, the first time I listened. The second time I listened, it was a bit tiresome. I got fed up with his nasal voice after a while. 7/10

Boring. A lot of the same stuff. Love "Cut your hair". Everything else sounds the same.

Excellent. Loved it

Recording the drunk uncle at an Irish family fest.

Great albums. Feel-good tunes, dark lyrics, some metal influences, loved it.

Mweh

God, I hate country.

Generic rock. Won't listen again

Like it, but won't listen to it again probably. 5/10

Good start, not that good middle. Got boring, but I probably need to listen to it a few more times.

Didn't expect this, but I genuinely loved this.

Great album. Energetic, poppy rock. 9/10.

I don't like his voice, but this was pretty good

Sounds all the same to me...

Better than expected. Nice for a Sunday morning

Love Bowie. Didn't like this though.

Very good in the beginning, corny in the middle. Probably his second best album.

Great album, but a but too much of the same thing. Something for a quiet evening...

Eerie, sometimes freaking weird, very cinematic. Grew on me after 2 listening sessions. Love it

I was dreading this album. The name and the cover implied some country-style rock that I don't really like. But it was actually pretty good. 3.5/5

Sauna music. I can appreciate it, but that's about it.

There are some great songs on this. And then there are some forgetful songs on it as well. Unfortunately, more forgettable songs...

I really wanted to like this. The singles on here are great: Sign o the times, Starfish and coffee, If I was your girlfriend are all excellent songs. Everything else kinda sounds easy-to-forget/all the same.

Yawn. Side B (everything after second Bookends theme) was alright though

Always loved the Andre 3000 part more. Although GhettoMusick on Big Bois album is defintely the best track. 4/5

Boring. Only hurt stands out.

I think I only heard 1 song. At least it was a good song :)

This was a hidden gem

This annoyed the crap out of me.

Standard 80s rock. Had some catchy tunes on it, Rattelsnakes for example.

Great trip-hop album.

4/5

Didn't like it. All sounded the same. I do like his voice, but after a while you start to notice how bad a singer he is.

Love it :)

Lots of streets, road, neighbourhoods, ... Don't care for it that much, although I know it's good. Born to run is one of the best songs ever, though. And The Boss remains one of the best live acts. 3/5

So freaking boring. And "Water don't give a damn" is the cheapest play on words I heard in a long time. It's not all bad though. After the second listen I enjoyed it more. Either way: 2/5 max.

Not for me

I realize that this album is filed with misogynist bullshit, but it's very clear this is "his thing". The beats are great. And although I understand most people find them repetitive and "always" the same, I think it's big fun. Loved listening to this album.

Wow, that was intense. Need to listen to some Norah Jones now

This is probably blasphemous, but I found this a really messy album. There are some really good poppy, some less interesting experimental stuff (might've been interesting in the 60s, but I've heard better since), and also some boring intermezzos. If this weren't the Beatles, I'd give it 2/5. But it is the Beatles, so it's a 3

I liked a lot of the tracks, but the same amount of tracks is forgetful. 2.5/5

Yawn

Fuck, it's country. Whatever. It was OK. Listened twice and didn't want to rip off my ears. 2/5

I liked this. Reminded me of the Doors.

What a schizophrenic album. A bunch of different sounding tunes. Some good tunes, some less good.

The most boring voice ever. Hated it, except for the first track

Hate the man, but love his music :/ Started really good, middle kinda stunk, ends well. 3/5

Mwah, it was OK.5/10

Very snooth jazz. I like it, as background music.

Really good album. Did not expect that

When people ask me what I think of Bob Dylan, I say he's a whining nag with a cold. But truth be told, I was really impressed with this album. More up tempo than I expected. Excellent lyrics, not to whiny. Un expected 4/5

I remember this album from when I was 15. Loved it then, still love it now.

There are some stinkers on here, but still, I managed to see the fun in it all. Perfect sing-a-long album.

Rainbows, unicorns, high tall green grass, flowers, so many flowers! How corny can an album be? And why the hell cover "help!"? Whatever, not my cup of tea.

A lot more boring than I expected.

Another boring 60s album. Nothing new

Gets a little tiring after a while. But still, great fun

Happy, good times. Genuinely enjoyed it. 4/5

I expected more from this album. Love the singles of Sault. This album as a whole, I think I get it, but it just do anything for me.

The more I listen to it, the better it gets. What a smooth, sexy, but intelligent album.

Aaaah... nostalgia. 2 boring tracks, everything else is awesome

Boring generic 60s album. 1/5 + time of the season = 2/5

Lyrics: 5/5. Music 3/5

Boring generic 60s album. 1/5 + time of the season = 2/5

Did not blow me away, which I kind of expected it would. The first 2 tracks are incredible, what an opening. But I got bored by the slow bluesy "You shook me". And it goes on like that: 1 or 2 great songs, then a boring one. Even so, I will listen to it again. 4/5

Interesting. Genres all over the place. Not sure if I will listen again, but did enjoy the album

Deceptacon is the shit!

Yawn. And sigh

I did not expect to like this. Some good songs on this album. Some less good as well

Country. Hate it. I tried, but had to give up at track 6.

Bit underwhelmed. The cultural importance and iconography of this album outweighs the music IMO.

This way excellent, from start to finish. I generally don't like Bob Dylan, but this was something else. 5/5

While riding on my bike, I continuously thought "I need a lot more acid for this". I listened again while working and that was better... Except the start of track 5 "Decca". That voice-intro-thingy is horrible. At that point I thought "I need drugs. Any kind of drugs". Track 6 "Eclipse" has some good DnB in it. In summary: I get why people like it. Some day, I might even like it with right amount of chemicals pumping through my veins. But not today. Today it's a 2/5.

Nope

Awesome from start to finish. 10/10 without a doubt

Not my cup of tea

What's not to like? Jazzy, well sung. Not mind-blowing, but solid album

Listened 6 times and didn't really stick. Not bad, not really great. 2.5/5

Good. But not that good.

That sucked soooo hard

I listened to this a lot twenty years ago. I loved it then, but it feels a bit too arty-farty for me now. Great tracks on this: Staring At The Sun and Ambulance.

Liked it. Jazzy, sunny, excellent musicians. But I can't help to think that are a lot more Cuban artists that can do the same (if not better). I don't know.... 3/5, but will definitely listen to it again

A lot more psychedelic than I thought it would be. I only know "No Fun" and "I wanna be your dog", so this was a surprise. 3/5

Excellent album for cold winter days.

This has some really boring tracks on it.

No

Some tracks are repetitive. But overall a very good disco album

Don't care for this at all

Every song, I think "I heard this before", just to realize it sounds exactly the same as the previous track

Excellent album. Not a single thing I can comment on

I don't "get" this album. I should probably sit down somewhere, preferably in a forest, and listen hard to understand it. Personal note: listen to it again. Right now, a 2/5

I did not expect to like this. This record is a warm blanket. I see myself sitting in front of a crackling fireplace, reading a book, drinking a cup of coffee, ... <<enter cliche here>>. 4/5

After reading some comments: I don't know what the fuss is about. There are some good tracks on this album. There are some cheesy tracks on it as well. Overall, I liked it. Personal favourite: Back in the day

Pretty good

Boring.

A lot better than I expected from "the most boring voice ever". 3/5

Truth is I don't like Coldplay. But this album is excellent. It would be pretentious of me not to give it 5 starts.

In my memory, this was a great album. Now, 25 years later, I have a different opinion. It got boring pretty quickly. I even got annoyed at some point: it just always kinda the seem thing. Maybe I am just having a bad day. 2/5

As far as country goes, this is allright.

There is some serious shite on this album! And some good tracks. Bootylicious rules! So does Independent Women pt1. Nasty Girl might have some dumb anti-female lyrics, but it's a good tune. Everything else is generic R&B crap. Way too long as well. 2/5

Some stinkers on here. All the slow tracks are too smooth, too slick. I don't like those. But the other tracks (Shing Star, Happy Feelin, Africano) are so good. Because of those tracks: 3/5

5/5 for 'Lorelei', a bit less for others. On average, good album, but I'm not overwhelmed. The whining singing get tiring after a while.

Not the typical Black Sabbath I expected to hear. Had to listen 3 times, but really enjoyed it

Nope. Not for me. Goddess on a highway is great. But that voice gets annoying after 5 songs. And the pseudo classical arty-farty soundscapes aren't for me. 2/5

Did not like this as much as I expected I would. Too many different experiments and not all that succesfull imo

Boring. A day later I can't remember any of it

Did not age well. 2/5

It's OK. Al lot of the same old, same old

It's OK. Al lot of the same old, same old

A bit underwhelmed.

Very cool for about 15 minutes. The mouth/jug sounds (bop bop bop bop) got so exhausting after that.

Meh

This was fun :) Happy beats, nice flow

This album could be half as long if he didn't repeat every sentence sung. 2/5.

I did not expect to like this, because I found the previous BM album I heard here extremely boring. But this was great. Liked it, will definitely listen again

It has some great tunes on it. Kick/push and daydreamin are great. The rest of the album sounds alike. Did not age well

I might have liked this on a Saturday night, smoking a cigar and drinking a large glass of whiskey... Not now though. It's a gloomy Thursday :( 2/5

A bit too soft for my liking, but I can hear the craftmanship.

Awesome album!

A bit underwelmed

5/5 for the title track. Everything else sounds exactly the same.

Cool. Bit repetitive
