1001 Albums Summary

Short and concise album. Have heard many of the songs before and liked second part a bit more as I hadn’t heard songs. Classic hard rock sound and great guitar riffs. Solid album

Enjoyed a lot more than I thought. A lot of songs I had heard and were overplayed. But loved the songs I didn’t know yet. Great album. Lauren is the standout.

Never heard of the album but liked it a lot. Played it twice. Liked over half the songs on the album.

Beautiful with a cool back story

Thought of giving it a 3. One I’ll need to revisit. Very depressing. the sounds are interesting. Feel like it’ll grow on me over time. Hard to take in all in one listening

Much better than I imagined. New this album and some of the songs, but never gave it a shot. Had preconceived notions. Hardly skipped any songs, even given the length of over 2 hours. Close to calling it a 5, as it has a lot of replay value. Production top notch 4.5

Enjoyed the album broadly. Need to listen with headphones. Music and instrumentation was pretty remarkable. Singing left me a bit lacking. Will relisten and did enjoy

Instrumentation was great. But his voice didn’t work for me at all. Sounded like the guy from Forgetting Sarah Marshall. But really great guitar, sax and others throughout. Was the redeeming quality 4/10

enjoyed it more than i thought, but wont revisit it most likely. didnt actively dislike it. giving it a 2/5. i was impressed by the lyrics and their depth and play of emotions. some darkness to the lyrics that I didn't expect. lyrics great, music itself isn't really my thing. very basic 3/10

Didn’t do anything for me at all and found it hard to get through. Want to retry at some point to see why and if better in second listen.

Enjoyed for the most part. The highs were great. I’ll revisit.

solid. not my typical music, but was light and had a nice feel to it. not sure i'll listen to it front to back again, but still enjoyed

Decent and enjoyed it enough but probably won’t revisit. Few great tracks, others were just fine.

Enjoyed the album and was a nice switch up after a lot of rock. Will revisit a few songs but probably not album from start to finish. Switched genres a lot which I didn’t love. First song was favorite

Absolutely loved this album and learning about it. The music was superb and lyrics interesting as well. Will continue to revisit

A bit boring. Songs sounded very similar and didn’t grab me. Some good ones

Loved it, and especially learning about it. Will revisit even if it’s not an album that blew me away. Was a very enjoyable listen and appreciated all it meant for pop music as I read about it

Couldn’t get into this album at all. Voice was so lifeless to me. May try again in future but had no endearing quality for me.

Fun, solid pop album. Will revisit

Didn’t enjoy this much at all on first listen. Thinking I just don’t like this style of music. Will be interesting to see if any other albums in this genre connect for me. Just noises After second listen this grew on me much more. The energy was infectious

Like the music but not the voice much. Back half was interesting.

Not bad but boring

Surprised it made list. Seems like better albums in this genre. Not bad per se, but nothing special. Don’t see myself revisiting

So much energy on this album. Starts off with a bang and never stops. Shortness helps the album too. Score is also based on history of album and what it meant for music

Loved this album. Guitar is incredible throughout

Pretty solid album throughout. Some misses but for the most part an enjoyable listen. Will relisten

first time i've really sat with Dylan and loved it. the first half, with its more electic mix, grabbed me. and second half was great folk music. want to spend more time with it all, especially the lyrics. not smart enough for everything he says.

Some real incredible highs. a few boring songs, but overall a great album

Wasn’t the biggest cypress hill fan. Just never spent enough time with them. Really enjoyed this album, especially the production. Lyrics are what you’d expect. Will absolutely revisit

Not for me at all. Too out there. sounded like music from a scary circus

Unique mix of punk and folk. Not sure I’ve heard many albums like it before. Punk has never really connected with me so this was an interesting experience. Glad to have listened but probably wont come back too again

11 year old me really loved this. Different at 37, but still enjoyed. Some songs are tough and lyrics are ridiculous but also some real high points. Enjoyed second half a lot. 4 partly off nostalgia. 3 is realistic. Not revisiting this often

Couple songs in middle I could listen to, otherwise connected with nothing. Couldn’t listen to every song all the way through.

Great guitar riffs, energy throughout. Really enjoyed this one.

First experience with anything morrissey (including smiths) and found this quite good. Only thing holding it back from a 4 is that it’s not the typical music I’d revisit often. Chat gpt said this and I thought it was put well Your Arsenal is Morrissey at a crossroad — glam yet introspective, political yet personal, funny yet mournful. It blends bitterness, bravado, and vulnerability better than almost any of his other solo work

great energy. will definitely revisit. almost a 4

never heard of them before but enjoyed the music. quiet eclectic with dramatic arrangements. will revisit. close to giving it a 4.

Enjoyed enough. Will revisit again

perfect pop album. never listened to full album before, so enjoyed sitting with full thing, even when knowing all the songs. great throughout

Tough listen. No redeeming qualities for me

very much mood music. enjoyed it overall. no single song really stood out, all blended together, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. interested to try another listen.

Voice just didn’t do anything for me

Incredible album. First half had so much energy and second half was beautiful slower songs. Very raw. Will add to rotation

Exactly why I started this project! Never heard this album and probably never would have. Enjoyed it immensely without understanding lyrics. Great energy and instrumentation. Will revisit a lot

Enjoyed this quite a bit. Almost a 4, and could be after a few more listens. Not what I was expecting. A bit darker and more socially conscious

Can’t tell if I’m a big stones fan yet or not. But this album was killer. So much great energy and loved most songs.

classic hip hop album. rae and ghostface were incredible throughout, and rza had such perfect production for this album

Not sure if I’m a stones fan or not. Enjoyed it but wasn’t blown away

not into jazz enough to know how to correct rate it. but i did enjoy this quite a bit. will be revisiting alot

Some great parts. Started to drag a bit towards end

Fine but boring. A couple songs I enjoyed but rest didn’t stick with me.

fantastic albums. Strong all the way through

couldn't get into this at all

Type of album I wouldn’t have listened to or appreciated before this project Really punchy record. Enjoyed more than I thought

Interesting storytelling. Probably won’t relisten. This type of country relies so heavily on lyrics for me as the music itself all sounds too alike. glad to have listened

Not bad just not really my type of music

I know it’s an important album but I found it pretty boring

Nothing remarkable. Found voice annoying

Never heard of them. Type of music I could enjoy but didn’t like this album. Lead singers voice didn’t do anything for me.

I was never a big fan of punk, but this process has helped me develop a deeper appreciation for it. I have to be in the right frame of mind, but when I am, it can really hit. There are still a lot of misses for me (both in the genre and on this album) but there are also some real high points. I’ve come to enjoy the chaos. I plan to revisit this and other punk albums I listened to earlier to see how my feelings evolve with sequential listens.

enjoyed. didnt actively listen as much as i should have. background music. a bit too long

Funky

Some amazing tracks. A bit long. Excited to listen again

Felt very repetitive and long. Favorite tracks were the instruments

beautiful album with such great emotion and energy. On first listen, I wasn’t quite sure how to feel. I had heard so many of these songs covered by others over the years, or had heard the originals first. Once I got past that, I could appreciate the album even more. Otis has such a unique voice. love this one

Perfect

This shits hard. First full Black Sabbath album I I listened to and it was more than I would have imagined. Great guitar, lyrics weren’t as batshit as i thought they’d be. 4.5

Enjoyed more than I figured. Very catchy songs with good punch. 3.5

Classic. Consistent from song to song. Nostalgia plays a factor.

Great pop album. Some all time classics. A few songs I didn’t love which leads to the 4. But the highs are so high on this album

Interesting listen and quite enjoyed it. Lyrics will take some time to really get and understand. Loved the production and it made the songs feel like a journey at times. 3.5. Could see this being a 4 after a few registers

Such a lively album. I think I’m a steely Dan fan

Classic

very enjoyable. harmonies stood out

Fine enough but another one of those albums I wonder why it made the list

What an album. Dark and hard. Guitar riffs were incredible. Favorite find so far from this project

Some of the worst collection of sounds I’ve ever heard

interesting enough but probably wont listen again. songs tended to blend together.

I’d only heard a few Arcade Fire songs before, and honestly didn’t expect to love this album as much as I did. I thought the message might come across as a little heavy-handed, but it held together beautifully and was a great listen. I’m excited to go back through it again, since I imagine the lyrics will connect even more on repeat listens. My only worry is that some of the songs do blur together at times, with a bit of repetitiveness in the sound. Curious to see how it all ages. But loved it first listen! One of my favorites so far

Classic album. Premo’s production was incredible. Jeru solid throughout as well.

Don’t know much about jazz but I do know this album stuck with me. Came back to a lot during this journey.

Enjoyed but a bit monotonous at times. Wanted more creativity like one

Wish I had these guys patience. Couldn’t get through it all

Interesting listen. Some good but a lot that didn’t connect. Don’t get rock lobster at all. Males voice was biggest issue. Probably a 4/10

Enjoyed this a lot. Dolly has such a unique voice and lyrics. First time listening to a dolly record and was impressed. Liked majority of songs

Fine. Some really solid tracks that’s I’ll come back to. Album just too long and so it started to sound monotonous. Not sure I’d want to relisten to full album again

Perfect

Listened to this for first time while walking around nyc with a slight buzz. Great stuff

what a ride. enjoyed more than expected. good headphones helps. probably a 3.5

Enjoyable enough but not dying to relisten to. It’s too clean at times, when it feels they should be harder

First time listening to Nick Drake. Enjoyed throughout. Such light music

Not bad, and really enjoyed a few songs, but after a while it felt a bit boring. Had to push to finish the album

What an interesting listen. Unlike most other albums I’ve heard. Enjoyed the journey. Not sure how often I’ll revisit

So eclectic and fun. Loved this

Just perfect

Flute rocked. Making Ron Burgundy proud. Solid album. Not sure I’ll revisit

Just not for ne

Some great, and some not so great

Would be a 1 but a few songs remind me of hockey locker rooms. Nostalgia works

One of my favorite produced albums. Be(intro) is such a beautiful song I’d give it a 9/10.

enjoyed much more than i thought. so clean

I like the Who a bit but this album did nothing for me.

Few songs I really enjoyed. A bit boring at times. Not sure I’d relisten to full thing again

some good, classic Christmas music

3.5

3.5

Half the songs I loved. Half the others I didn’t care for

interesting but found repetitive at times. enjoyed overall but probably wouldn't listen to many times more
