1001 Albums Summary

Make Yourself by Incubus

Remain In Light by Talking Heads

Talking Heads incorporate polyrhythms, more musicians, and get a bit deeper than even before. Amazing growth by an an equally amazing band.

Abraxas by Santana

What a funky, psych-y album! Filled with grooves, singing guitars, and the best kind of fuzzy keyboards, this record is filled with a ton of latin soul and good old fashioned rock. The two singles Black Magic Woman and Oye Como Va are pretty good indicators of the styles contained within, but do yourself a favor and explore the rest.
