1001 Albums Summary

Piece of my heart. What a banger. Cool album I didn't know, but that aged well since 1968.

It's mind-boggling that this came out in 1978 as this could easily be released 20 or even 30 years later. Probably part of the foundation of a lot of electronic music we hear today.

Grunge with a little extra. Outstanding Debut Album with so so many hits. Still great in 2025.

Some proper hits and some mediocre songs that have been played way too much on tv. A bit too much drama here and there, for my taste.

I'm sure that's music that requires incredible skill and talent to make, but it's just not my thing. Also I personally didn't like this particular live recording.

Definitely a classic with the unique Led Zep sound. Many outstanding songs and but also a few mediocre ones as well. Fav Track: Since I've Been Loving You.

Starts strong but gets a bit weaker in the second half before it ends just great. Still, outstanding guitar performance and unique sound. Somewhere between 4 and 5, but I like it a lot. Fav Track: Brothers in Arms

Seems I didn't really know them beforehand for a reason. Pretty bland and boring. The only thing saving this from 1 star is the Fav Track: (They Long To Be) Close To You

Did absolutely nothing for me. No idea how that got on the list.

Several great ones and a few which are odd.

Pretty bland 90s music that would be used in the background of some try-hard small town wine bar.

Punk Classic. Fav Track: Kill The Poor

Outstanding album and debut. Even if I don't like their newer stuff, this one will always be in a special place. Fav Track: Don't Panic

Too much going on for my taste.

Perfect pop rock mix with some good memories.

Great voice. Good songs. But also a lot of the same.

Good beats, uninspired songwriting. Not great not terrible.

Did not age too well, in my opinion. But also decent overall.

This is a pretty unforgiving thing. Not an easy listen, but a bit of work to chew through. I like it, but it's not for everyone and every day. What rewards you in (in full length!) the ... Fav track: Child in Time

Dark atmosphere and nice beats that keep you engaged. The voice can be a bit challenging at times, but overall a pretty good album. Fav Track: Keep The Streets Empty for Me

I'm a fan of bands like Flogging Molly and Dropkick Murphys and I like to drink a pint of Guinness (or 5), but this album seemed a bit bland to me. Nothing really terribly wrong with it, just a bit meh. Still, fav track: Sally MacLennane

Very good one, but I prefer studio recordings. Great songs, great harmonies, great songwriting. Fav Track: My My, Hey Hey (Out of the Blue)

Even considering the age of that album, I think it's a bit boring. It does have a few good songs, but maybe it's just not my thing. fav track: Fever

Good one. Don't know what to say, besides that you can hear from when and where this thing comes and that's not a bad thing. Fav Track: Down in the Tube Station at Midnight

You can clearly hear the influence of the Beatles, David Bowie and Queen and it's well-made, but it's also just a bit too much of everything. I can't put it in words, but the songwriting just doesn't click with me overall. It's not at all a bad album, and parts of it are actually really nice, so I'm torn. But what the hell did they think in "Night in the City"? That song is annoying af.

This is so 80s and it did not age particularly well. Fav Track: It's a Sin, but the rest is so bland, that I just can't rate this with 3 stars.

Never heard of them before. This was not bad, but unfortunately it did not do much for me. Fav Track: Holes.

Neosouljazzwhatever is just not my thing.

I get that people like Beck, but his music never really clicked for me. Something about his songwriting and melodies that throws me off. Having said that, it's not really terrible either.

Well the cover looks nice, but the music is quite literally a lot of noise.

Sounds like the friendly little cousin of The Ramones and that's not a bad thing.

don't know what to make of this. I fought my way through to track 11 but then was too annoyed to continue.

Is has groove, but at the same time it's repetitive and annoying at places. Not really sure.

Classic dad rock gem. Outstanding start and end and a decent middle. Fav tracks (obviously): Baba O'Riley and Behind Blue Eyes

Wtf was this? All songs the same and all equally bad.

Sounded a lot like Oasis. Pretty okay but a bit too much of the same...

Good one. Fav Track: A Hard Day's Night. Great opener, no doubt.

Totally not my thing, but somehow not too bad.

Absolute classic that contains one banger after the other. So many fav tracks.

There are so many good songs by Massive Attack. Apparently this album does contain hardly any of them. I guess I just wanted Mezzanine and was disappointed by Protection. Still, Fav Track: Protection.

Pretty chill and spacey, but also a bit boring. I'm very much torn what to think of this.

Maybe not something to listen to in the background

Something new I discovered and liked quite a bit!
