1001 Albums Summary

Likely burnt out from three days of British bands in a row, but I've also never been into Damon Albarn's works.

Upbeat and bright rock tunes with the essential Bowie dramatics, plenty of classics!

I respect the Beatles, but this album wasn't particularly for me. The tracking is too simplistic for me but I'm probably very biased to modern techniques/methods. Probably was great for 1965 but there's a reason their latter albums are more renowned for them.

A true gem by my standards as someone who doesn't listen to or gravitate to this genre. The depth of this album is just okay, but the all the great tracks hold this up. Bonus points for Eminem being one of the few rappers of which I can clearly understand the lyrics.

My ear isn't nuanced enough to really differentiate many of these tracks. "Salminanam" felt like a desperado cowboy western track.

Not really my thing compounded with some of the album tracks not available on Spotify. The F*** Me (Interlude) was disturbing to me.

So many classic and very recognizable songs, so it's hard make any knocks against this album.

None of the other songs on this album really stuck out to me aside from Tiny Dancer.

Low streaming quality on Spotify weighs this rating down some, but was a decent enough album for my tastes.

First few songs held up for me listening on a bright and sunny morning, but then I got bored with each successive track.

Love this era of psych rock.

This does not seem like a 'top 1001' album. Elevator/lobby music by today's standards.

Oh look, Bob Dylan was coherent back in the day.

Not a huge fan of Aguilera, but can respect her. This album has some great songs. Loved the song 'Ain't No Other Man' when it was released, such a good backbeat and use of horn hits.

Tuned this out and by the time I came back to it, was 11 tracks in. Couldn't remember a single thing.

Pretty fun eclectic mix of songs! Wasn't convinced at the start, but came around on it as the album progressed.

An absolute gem - instant 5/5. Not my favorite Radiohead album, but in the context of these 1001 albums, its great. @joe this is MY college feels.

This doesn't really feel like it should be characterized as 'punk rock', but I enjoyed this as someone is ignorant of Patti Smith.

Wish I could rate 0, not music to me.

So many classics, definitely worthy of this list. A number of tracks I had never heard before that could def pass off as good rock music in 2025.

I thought this album artwork said 'Supertrump' at first. 😆 Pretty fun album!

This album doesn't exude as much "king of rock and roll" as other albums, but I found this okay.

Couldn't stand this album -- had to cut it off.

I have actually never listened to any YYY albums straight through so this was fun. Some lulls for me but the more popularized songs are awesome.

So boring. Needs the E Street Band with him (Max Weinberg 😍) to be interesting to me.

I like the Smashing Pumpkins, but listening to a full album run of Billy Corgan vocals drains me.

I like Robert Smith, but hard for me to stomach a full album of him.

I never truly appreciated / treasured Meat Loaf until he passed. This album was fun -- liked the fast paced dramatics.

Perfectly fine album, but didn't feel worthy of this list.

The cover artwork is as campy as this album 😆

Neil Young's vocals are too whiny for me.

Sad to admit I've never listened to Pulp, but I found this album pretty fun despite it being on the longer side.

Def very Portishead 😅 -- too whiny/droning for my tastes. One of the few more modern albums on this list encountered so far.

Couldn't listen to this during the day, however it was relaxing while cooking dinner. Overall, not what I'm looking for out of the this list.

Energetic fun -- definitely foundational towards her evolution to the artist she is today. Not for me personally.

Happy Cinco de Mayo.
