Surrealistic Pillow
Jefferson AirplaneBluesy easy listening
Bluesy easy listening
The first album to kick off this list. I feel like all my notes throughout this journey are going to be "very chill" or "good jam," so I'll try to write something more haha. This album reminds me of the kind of music I would drive around late at night listening to. I particularly liked the songs "Shelter" and "Night Time."
LOVE me a good harmonica solo
PANAMA!!!! That song makes me want to do a sick jump off a ramp in my car.
Started out thinking it reminds me of Ok Go, ended thinking it reminds me of Cage The Elephant. Fun album.
I don't think I've ever listened to The Rolling Stones before this, but I wasn't too impressed with this album.
I have a lot of respect for bands like The Monks, for experimenting and trying to create a new alternative sound. We wouldn't have many different styles of music today if there weren't pioneers out there trying new stuff. That being said, I did not care for any of this lol.
I thought it was a bit odd that a live album was on this list, but this actually ruled. Great performance.
I once again was not impressed with this Rolling Stones album. Am I missing something? These guys have a magazine named after them.
I enjoyed this so much that when the album was over, I just let Spotify keep playing similar music all day lol
I actually just recently got into Bruce Springsteen, so I listened to this a while ago.
Man, I love the blues, and I'm so glad this album list has had so many bluesy artists.
Listening to this felt like I was missing out on part of the experience. Seems like the kind of thing you had to be there for.
Synth-pop is truly something special.
A classic
I really enjoyed this. Reminded me a lot of Imogen Heap. I went and listened to the rest of their discography as well. I think I might have found a new favorite artist.
So three stars for me means I didn't hate it, but I didn't like it either. I started out not caring for this album, but as it went on, it started to grow on me. Gives me Pixies vibes, a band I love. I think I would be a hippopotacrite if I hated on this and then went and listened to "Doolittle."
Dad rock. This is neither a positive nor a negative, just a general purpose statement.
I wondered if there was ever gonna be an album on this list that I knew really well. I listened to the shit out of this when I was in college. Love Curtis Mayfield.
I enjoyed a few songs on this album. Although, while I appreciate their impact on hip hop, Run DMC has never been one of my favorites.
I used to sing in a voice similar to this to annoy my girlfriend. Never realized I was doing a Tom Waits impression. I didn't hate it entirely. Overall, I'm a blues fan, but for some of the songs, his voice was just too much, like someone getting plastered and doing Louis Armstrong karaoke.
Groovy
Guess I like U2
If this was released today, it would 100% be recommended to me by Spotify in the release radar.
Now this is EXACTLY the kind of thing I expect from a "1000 albums to listen to" list
The fact that I knew nearly every song on this album just proves that it's a classic
Punk rock is my favorite genre, and while I'm not Offspring's biggest fan by any measure, this still ruled.
Five stars, don't even have to listen, ELO is just a five star band.
Bluesy easy listening
I must admit, I've never actually listened to Bob Marley, at least not on my own. This was really great, I can understand why he's legendary status.
This was so incredibly boring. I think even when I listened to EDM back in the day, I would not have liked this album.
RIP Ozzy.
I've always been fairly indifferent to Bowie, cherry picking some songs here and there. I was pretty indifferent to this album too.
Caught myself going "hell yeah" multiple times while listening.
I mean starting with a rock and roll cover of Curtis Mayfield is just cheating. This album was funky as hell and tons of fun.
This was mostly on in the background for me, but I got good vibes.
I can't shake the feeling that I maybe should have gotten high before listening to this.
I'm finding more and more that I'm really into this style of rock.
Old school punk
Another one of my favorite albums from my college days. I freaking love RATM.
Yes
So rock and roll. Just like Black Sabbath, it's really funny to me that this is the kind of music people would clutch pearls at back when this came out. Maybe it's the spooky album art.
This album was a rollercoaster, man
