1001 Albums Summary

The Idiot by Iggy Pop

Fine Iggy Pop album. Later night listening than Lust for Life. Better behaved than the Stooges stuff. The original China girl has more punch than Bowie’s.

Metallica by Metallica

Not as good as the Cliff Burton era Metallica.

Brothers by The Black Keys

Not as good as there other stuff. A bit tired and samey with too many blues tropes.

Rio by Duran Duran

Enjoyed.

Songs From The Big Chair by Tears For Fears

Capable musicians but I could not stand this.

Off The Wall by Michael Jackson

The Gilded Palace Of Sin by The Flying Burrito Brothers

Great but won’t put on all the time.

Bright Flight by Silver Jews

Not their best.
