1001 Albums Summary

Enjoyed the vibe but not all the rhyme. The Gil Scott Heron sample in “Who Will Survive in America” is poignant.

This is a classic for a reason. The background audio including announcements throughout adds to the ambiance and authenticity.

It was fine. Good vibe. Not a lot of things I’ll be singing along to though.

This was pretty good. Feels like Black Keys gots some inspiration from this!

Good early metal. Love NIB and the Wizard.

Fine ABBA disco stuff. Didn’t jump out at me but wasn’t unpleasant.

This was nice, but not a ton of variety in tone or “vibe” on each song

Of course it’s got the hits. The rest are fine. It’s hard not to listen to it knowing the foibles of the Gallaghers.

Great vibe and vocals. Appreciate the subject matter as well. A solid album for just listening.

I love everything about this album. Tom Sawyer is such a banger, and YYZ is amazing!!! I’ve actually under appreciated camera eye.

I liked it, but it’s definitely not something you can just have in the background. The words demand attention. More for a car ride than just hanging out around the house.

This sounds like trash. I can’t even pay attention to lyrics.

Fine as far as this type of music goes. Not really my thing.

Good music. Some catchy, some not. Appreciate the blues-driven, soul-filled nature.

I enjoyed this album for background music as well as the instrumentals. Would listen again.

Nothing to write home about.

A band I could get into. I plan on exploring more of their stuff.

Punky. Apparently not their best, but I’d listen again.

Not exactly for me in terms of subject matter. The style was fine. Will not listen again.

Boorrriiiingggguh!!!

Pretty good. Lived up to hype…almost.

It was fine background music. Kids is a bop.

Some good ‘70’s acoustic rock. Wild World and Father and Son are amazing.

I like this style of hip hop.

Not their best album, but it was good. Made me want to check out more of their stuff

Good music. Catchy. May listen to more.

This album is awesome blues rock from start to finish!

Great album. Not good background music. Have to listen to intently.

Good. Couple nostalgic hits. Love “Where It’s At!”

I liked this album. I could get into these guys. I feel regret I did not when I was younger.

Not my bag.

Not great at all. Came off a like some OG ‘60’s Brit pop…

Again…’80’s pop is not my thing.

Ugh…enough with the electronica.

Fine, I guess.

Love Neil Young and love this classic album!

This has been a favorite of mine since 1999. Love just about every track!

Really dig this album. Had me humming along the whole time. Love hickory wind.

Was okay. May listen to more.

Meh. Classic rock that’s okay.

Love the style. If it was a little more PG (or more subtle at least) I’d listen to them a lot!

Didn’t really get into it.

Pretty impressive and well done pop album!

Fine for what it is. Not really my cup of tea other than background noise.

Good alternative stuff. Didn’t grab me, but not bad.

Ok. Love song is good. Might re-listen.

I don’t care for most live albums, mu ch less live metal.

Will listen again. Occasionally in the mood for this kind of thing.

Interesting to have in the background. Not something I have a lot of desire to listen to…but I can see where this style has been influential.

I could listen to this all day!

This is some solid classic country.

Mediocre 60s Brit rock

Not my thing. Past his prime.

A little less structured and poppy than I prefer. Maybe I’d like it if I was in a different mood.

Electronica still not my thing, but this wasn’t terrible.

Loved this one. It’s been a while since I’ve listened to this style of jazz, but I’ll be getting back into it.

Good old timey country ballads.

Alright but weird

Really good!

Fantastic album. A friend got me the single for Smells Like Teen Spirit and it was mind blowing. Almost every song is a classic.

Okay. Not much into David Bowie newer stuff. This was better than some of his other newer stuff.

A couple of alright songs, but Megadeth has never really been my thing. Good guitar work on a technical level.

Really good musical construction and aspects. Worth additional listens.

Really good bass lines and grooves.

This was good live Van Morrison. Love all of it.

Meh. This just has low key Oasis vibes without the catchiness.

It’s alright. Live forever is a great track.

Definitely need to be in a particular mood.

Kind of boring.

It was okay. I was actually surprised at the style and enjoyed it. I could see that Ben Folds may have gotten some inspiration from this.

Love this album! Everlong is truly amazing.

Loved every track. Such amazing talent.

Didn’t realize Love Hurts was these guys. This was a solid “oldies” album of this style.

Love the combo of musical styles.

A little chaotic.

Fine background vibe music.

Dance/EDM schlock. Not my jam. Ray of Light, the song, is okay. The rest of it is meh.

Good oldies

This was good. Even my wife liked it. Very similar to other hippie country rock alums’ work (Byrds, Gram Parsons).

British Invasion oldies. Ok.

Love it now more than ever.

Fine hippy music. Songs all well done.

Good jazz. Not particularly gripping.

Couple good songs. Lots of noise.

Classic and amazing!

Soso punkish stuff.

Why does everybody like this guy?

Outstanding vocals by Janice. Okay blues feel.

I like the style and the more playful lyrics.

Ugh

Good stuff. Will probably add ELP to my lists in the future. It is a bit high brow and somewhat condescending.

Really good. Classic.

First real CD I ever got! Love it then…love it now.

Not the most compelling jazz I’ve ever listened to, but alright.

Some good solid oldies. I like the style.

Really good folksy stuff. Red Dirt Girl reminds me of Travelin’ Soldier.

Lovely classic.

Boring 80’s

Really soulful and beautiful blues/singing.

Artful hippie stuff I guess.

Meh punk

Love it!

One of my all time favorites!

Good like their other albums. Disco funk.

Good music. Lyrics weren’t that compelling to me.

Good single…the rest is blah.

I don’t know what to do with this. I guess it’s supposed to be good?

A bunch of hippie nonsense with a potentially good song that goes on way too long.

Fine musically.

This album is a banger. I can listen to this on repeat!

Good classic rock feel.

This was really good.

What even is this?

Not sure it’s really my thing.

Awesome reimagining of some great songs by a great artist!!!

Typical Neil.

Uncompelling. Fine music though.

Good.

Ugh electronica

Great guitar work.

Have loved this one for a long time.

Definitely a unique sound.

This was better than I expected, I think. Some of the original British albums from the ‘60’s are kind of meh to me. But, I really liked The Who By Numbers and this was comparable.

Nice and chill reggae.

Interesting if bland.

Eh

Eh
