1001 Albums Summary

What am I gonna say? That I don’t like Led Zeppelin III? Like an insane person? This album has more of a bluesy/bluegrass feel to it than maybe their other stuff. Lots of great guitar stuff going on. And Robert Plant is Robert Plant. New finds/Standouts: Since I’ve Been Loving You Celebration Day Tangerine (duh) I’m glad this was the first one because I really do love Zep and I’ve been meaning to listen through their full discography.

I liked the style of music but it was a bit too drum heavy for me (which I expected when I saw Ginger Baker and Live). Definitely the kind of album I could put on for some upbeat, energetic background music. I don’t know that I’d listen to this particular album again, but I’d check out some of the artist’s other work.

Immediate replay for me. Initial listen while I was getting ready to go out, loved it immediately but I feel it’s an album that needs multiple listens. It’s Bowie being Bowie in the weirdest and best way. I can’t believe I’ve never heard a single track off this record. This was more of a 4.5 for me. Really wnjoyed, definitely will listen again in the future. This is a good one to find on vinyl.

Sometimes Jack White’s voice got on my nerves. Some of the songs felt repetitive. The White Stripes seem like a band I should be more into, but I just don’t really feel a connection to the music. That said, it’s still enjoyable to listen to, it just doesn’t really grab me. I do like the guitar on quite a few of the songs. I don’t know, it’s good but it’s not my favorite.

I’m not even done yet and I already know this is a 5. Not a skip on the album. Love You To was a little too sitar-y for my personal taste. But who cares? It’s the Beatles. Do they have a bad song? No. I really enjoyed this album - a couple of my favorite Beatles songs are on Revolver. Eleanor Rigby gives me goosebumps every time, no matter how many times I’ve heard it. This album feels ahead of its time.

I am going to admit that at first Janis Joplin’s whole deal was a little jarring. But then Piece of My Heart starts and you get into it and you kind of start grooving. I’ve always loved that song and Ball and Chain and the rest of the album is groovy too. A lot more country/bluesy on the rest of the songs too. I liked it. And great album cover.

Fun trumpet-y jazz. Jazz isn’t my favorite genre but I’m getting into it. This was a good one to put on and do some work.

Yeah I like this! I’ve never been a particularly big Dylan fan because I never really made the effort to listen to more of his music. But I’m getting a little more into folk! So I‘m glad to have listened to this. It’s definitely one I’d replay. Sounds like it would be good for driving down country roads with the windows open. I’m a fan!

Oh wait Oasis is really good?

Okay so this one doesn't have a ton of songs that I remember when I'm not actively listening to it but I enjoy it a lot when it's playing, you know? So I'm giving it a 4 but it's really a 3.5 maybe? I'll round up for this one.

Pretty good but didn’t totally grab me. Some standouts like Uncertain Smile.

Not a bad song on this. I could listen to this on repeat forever.

I liked it! Not my typical favorite genre but it was fun and a lil sexy

Ooh, this is weird! I like it.

Surprised how much I liked this. Definitely set a calming kind of romantic 70s mood. Ideal for playing while working or cleaning or cooking with a lover ;)

Oh wow I can't believe I've never listened to Arcade Fire. I'm a fan! Definitely something I'd put on again and really listen to the lyrics next time.

Beautiful album. It’s making me nostalgic for something I never experienced.

I liked this way more than I thought I would!

Hell yeah I love ELO!!

Some bangers and some stuff I didn’t love because it felt like the vibe was jumping around.
