1001 Albums Summary

I was familiar with a few of these songs, because of Elvis's popularity, but I don't know if I have ever actually listened to any of them until now. They were decent. I definitely liked the faster songs better. I enjoy the walking basslines on some of the tracks and the vibes and feels, however I don't see myself going out of my way to listen to this album again. It was fine....just not very compelling for me.

Not my style of music, but I can see why she has fan. Her vocals are strong and soulful. The instruments bring a good backing to the music. Criminal was my favorite song on the album, it makes sense that it has the most streams.

I like rap, but I don't listen to a lot of it. I enjoyed this album a lot. I was already familiar with "Killing Me Softly With His Song", but there were a few others that I had heard before but never realized with was by Fugees. Overall, I enjoyed the album.

I usually don't enjoy live albums, but this one was alright. I like the bluesy feel of the band. Some of the songs went too long though....no song needs to be 23 minutes long.

I don't have much to say. It was a good album. Solid British rock, but wasn't necessarily my vibe.

It's Prince. What more is there to say? The hits are bangers, and even the B-sides are pretty good.

A good, funky album. I don't spend a ton of time listening to funk. Most of my experience comes from Vulfpeck. But this was good, I enjoyed it.

Prior to this challenge I had only head "1234" by Ozomatli. A little surprised it wasn't on this album! Overall the sound was good and the beats were engaging. I liked it.

Album was okay. It really picked up around Super Stupid.

Not my favorite album. I liked the first song, Brown Sugar, but the rest was pretty mid.

Good album. I recognized a lot of the songs. A nice, driving rock to listen to while I was commuting.

This one was actually kinda fun! Take popular songs and play bongos to them. Like if Donkey Konga was made in the 1970s

It was alright. I'm not a rap guy. I know Jay-Z is important to the genre, but I wasn't really feeling it.

This album was just noise to me. I usually listen to these while I work, but it was very distracting.

This album was boring. The Beach Boys are a boring band.

A good, enjoyable album. It reminded me of the week I spent in Havana and makes me want to go back

An excellent example of indie rock. High energy, Karen O has amazing vocal, and then just when you're feeling good.....Maps drops and you're crying in the club.

The first song, their most popular song on the album, I wasn't a fan of. The final 30 seconds of it delved into just noise and I was worried that the rest of the album would go that way. However, as it progressed, it started to give me a vibe of The Flaming Lips mixed with Neutral Milk Hotel, two bands that I am a fan of. Overall I enjoyed it.

Good classic synthpop. This is like what I listen to on a regular basis.

It was fine, I guess. But man, I don't really care for the Beatles.

I'm not a country guy, but it's hard to hate Willie

I honestly didn't know they had other songs aside from Come On Eileen, and this album doesn't have that song at all! They had enough songs for at least TWO whole albums? Wow. Anyway, it was fine.

It was good, fun 80s pop rock

When I saw this was a solo project, I was expecting a different sound. But as I listened to it and read about it, I learned it was a self-published release of a shelved Beach Boys album and definitely hit that vibe. Some of the songs were good, some were a little weird (did not expect to hear goats until I noticed the track title was "Barnyard")

When I think of "rock bands" this isn't what I was thinking of or really desiring. I prefer faster stuff. But I'm not saying this was bad. If I was just chilling and hanging out with friends, this would be a good background to our activities.

This would be a good album for a dinner party. Something to have on in the background while you're cooking and mingling. I vibed with it pretty well.

This is the kind of vibe I've been looking for. Some fast-paced, fun rock.

Little Richard is fun. I liked this album. I would absolutely listen to it again!

It was an okay album. Obviously "White Rabbit" and "Somebody to Love" were great songs, that's why they get tons of airplay on classic rock radio. The other songs were good, but not great. I didn't hate them, but I didn't love them.

An entirely forgettable album

I like rockabilly a lot, however I don't like live albums. Alas...

A friend described this as a step below Coldplay, and I'm in line to agree.

The hits were good. The rest was pretty meh

90s hip-hop with some turntable elements. Say no more, fam.

Perfectly serviceable 60's background music

Felt like I should have been hosting a fancy dinner party

Man, I really don't like Tom Waits

Great album. Eazy-E is still my favorite NWA rapper, but I can get down with some Ice too

Sounded like generic 60s rock. Nothing stood out, and it sounded like a bunch of other stuff I've already listened to.

Was not expecting them of all bands to be dropping N-bombs. Really caught me off guard on the 2nd song.

Ambient music that made me want to take drugs and look at space for a while

This album was a trip (complimentary)

Another boring album. I played it while working and it never really hooked me

Aqualung and Locomotive Breath was good. The rest of the songs were okay

Wasn't as bad as I was expecting. I see "experimental rock" from the 70s and I assume it's just gonna be noise. But this was coherent. It was more jam bandy which isn't my thing, but wasn't terrible.

I can't give it 1 star because it's not unlistenable, but it's very much not my vibe. I understand that I am not the target audience for this album.

This was basically a coffee shop soundtrack. White guy, soft voice, acoustic guitar

It was giving me strong Beck vibes

I like The Who, but I don't like live albums

It wasn't bad, it was just boring

I like Thin Lizzy, but I'm still not a fan of live albums

Lot's of covers, but overall some good rock

I do not like Brian Eno

Too many skits. Could have afforded to cut those out and just stick to music

It was better than I expected. If there was more Yoko, I probably would have disliked it.

This wasn't a particularly "good" album, but I still liked it.

Idk, man. They're The Beatles. They're fine. I don't hate them, I don't like them. It's just whatever.

I did not realize k.d. lang was a country singer. Then I realized I was thinking of KT Tunstall

The popular songs are bangers. The other songs are generic butt.

The album was okay. Some of the songs had good beats. But it's Kanye....

It's always fun to hear songs that I only know because they were sampled in other songs.

It was fine I guess, but I'm not really a jazz guy

I don't like live albums I don't like Bob Dylan I don't like this.

The songs were good, but there were too many interludes and skits. Why did so many 90s and 2000s hip hop albums include them?

I did not do enough drugs to appreciate psychedelic rock. This was just straight up bad.

It wasn't bad. Elliott is a talented musician, but god the album was boring

I loved the concept, a soundtrack album for a fake movie. But I've heard better ones. "Internal Affairs" by Sunglasses Kid blows this one out of the water.

britpunk...normally I'm fine with it, but this one was pretty bad

It's not Rumors, but it was okay

It was okay, but I still don't like live albums. This one was better because it was live in studio instead of live on stage.

I really don't like Neil Young

I won't deny that they're talented singers. But listening to a choir is not my vibe

It was fine. Generic indie rock but fine.

It was fine. David Bowie is fine.

Not a big afrobeat guy

The two most popular songs in the album are used in almost every commercial ever. That was fun to learn
