1001 Albums Summary

2 1/2 June 1 2025 2 1/2 stars Does not stand up to the test of time. I still live I Can’t Stand the Rain. The guys from Heaven 17 sang backup. I recognized their voices. Bad covers of Help and 1984

4 stars. A lot of great hits. I liked it more than I thought I would.

3 stars The first few songs are great but the rest of the album didn’t impress me much. I may listen to again.

3 stars Very funky but not as good as I remember. I think I prefer another album. Would listen to again.

4 Stars. It plays better as a full album than single. I’m starting to appreciate his Berlin albums. A couple of good instrumentals.

Very good album. The first few songs are excellent. I will definitely listen to this more.

4 stars Great album. Classic. I need to listen to it more.

1 Star Not my type of music. It might have been better if I heard the non-live version. I won’t listen to this again

A lot of fun. I woke up cranky and after a few seconds I was up and dancing.

Very weird, physadekic, groovy,experimental. I did not expect to like it but it was really good

RIP Brian Wilson Great album. Nothing else to say.

Great songs. Some are playlist songs. I love this album

2 1/2 Fun but not great.

2 1/2 Very 60’s folksy. Some songs are better than others.

3 stars I assumed this album would get 1 star. This is not my type of music but I was pleasantly surprised. There are some really good songs on this album. I will definitely listen to it again.

2 1/2 I was thinking I would like this album more than I did. There were a couple of good songs but the rest was too disjointed. I like her other albums more.

Some good songs. Some bad songs. I will listen to it again.

1Star A lot of 80’s hit. Not my cup of tea.

3 1/2 stars almost 4 Kurt Cobain and Liam Gallagher both loved this album. It sounds a lot like Big Star which is a good thing. I will listen to it again.

3 3/4 Good album with some excellent songs. Very close to 4 stars. I need to listen to it more.

A lot of my friends love this album but I could not get into it. There are a couple songs that are okay.

Kind of experimental but in a good way. I will definitely listen to it again.

I know he’s a genius but I just don’t get his music.

Haven’t heard this album in decades. T

Good to listen to at night when you are winding down.

3 1/12 stars A good introduction to ska. .

2 3/4 Not my type of music but there are a few great songs.

Could not find a streaming source so I could not listen to it. I heard a bit of the first song and it was too experimental.

It’s a good album but I think I listened to it too much in the 90’s with Suz at the bakery. Maybe it’s age but I don’t want to listen to it again.

I’ve liked other Joni albums but this is got too. I think if I listen to it a few more times it will go up to 4 stars.

2 stars. Not really my cup of tea. It’s got a couple of well known songs like Maggie May. I do like the song Losing You but a bit too long.

Awful

Sounds a bit like Hank Williams. Album is from 1967. Sounds like classic old country. I’d like to hear some of his more contemporary stuff.

Hammond organ jazz. I liked this album. Want to add to my jazz playlist.

A disappointment.

Great album. Probably my favorite Bowie album.

2 1/2 Not as bad as I thought it would be. A couple of good songs. It has the song that Mike put in his mix tapes.

3 1/2 I can’t stand Kanye but this is a good album.

I wanted to like it more than I did. Great job sampling. I love the jazz used in it. I will try to listen to it again.

They are okay. They remind me of PIL. I should play it for Mike. Reminds me of Irene. She put one of their songs on a mix tape. That was over over 30 years ago. I’m old.

RIP Ozzy

I love song 1 and 7

There were 2 pretty good songs. The rest was not good.

I did not like this. The music stressed me out!

3 1/2 stars I’m not the biggest The Who fan and live albums aren’t my favorite but this was very good. I will definitely listen to it again.

Not my cup of tea.

I really like song number 3 Starpower.

3 1/2 Tom Petty is finding his voice. It’s a good album. It includes Breakdown and American Girl.

Folk music. Just an acoustic guitar and singing. I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. I might listen to it again,

I was surprised. Good album.

2 1/2 I wasn’t paying enough attention when I listened to this so it deserves another try. I’ve heard it’s a great album so I want to give it a chance.

2 1/2 stars. Almost a 3. It’s a little to poppy for me. I did like the song Happy Face and a ballad. I doubt I’ll listen to the album again but might use Happy Face in a playlist.

Great album. Not a bad song on it. Most are perfect. I should play this more often.

A very fun album. Every time I listen to it I like it more.

I did not listen to the entire album. It wasn’t great but I think it deserves another listen.

What a great first album. It’s great overall. I really enjoyed this. Going to listen to regularly.

It’s good but I wish it wasn’t live but it’s The Duke. Don’t think I’ll listen to it again.

Pretty close to a perfect album. I love it.

3 1/2 stars. It started out as 2 but there are a lot of good songs. I really like So Here I come.

Great memory of the early 2000’s. The music is fast and fun. I’m not sure if it’s a 3 1/3 or 4. There are some great songs but a few duds.

Great sampling. I forgot that I have this CD. I could only listen to it on YouTube and I think I missed a few songs.

2 1/2. Not my cup of tea.

I know he is beloved and everyone likes him but I do not like him at all. The live versions are even worse. I could barely listen to the entire album.

One of my favorite Bob Dylan albums.

3 1/2 stars I used to love this album when I was a kid. It was so dramatic. I thought I was going to dislike it this time around but it didn’t. It’s fun and a great rock opera. I as pleasantly surprised.

4 1/5. I should give it 5 stars but I think I’ve listened to it to many times.

An interesting album. I’m not sure if it’s a 2 1/2 or 3. Might try to listen to it again.
