1001 Albums Summary

Familiar sounds. Good "easy summer listening", could picture listening to this sitting outside at a restaurant. Not very passionate, didn't make me feel anything. Very similar feel between all of the songs. I like it for a few songs then get sick of the same beat.

Very easy to see his influence in later music. 'Tonight' reminded me of David Bowie while I found Turn Blue to be laughably bad. Had it's highs and lows, but overall I enjoyed it!

Obviously already familiar with the band and some of the songs on here. There were a few with a more country feel which was interesting.

What a pleasant surprise. I've always liked The Beastie Boys, but this was way more eclectic and varied than I would have guessed. Highly enjoyable.

Very very familiar with Eminem, I'm sure nostalgia has something to do with my rating. If I had never heard of him before I wonder if I would rate the same, probably not. Super talented obviously, but it's a little "edgelord"y. But hey, made him a looooot of money so good for him.

I'd rather listen to your beard scratching noises you kept making in the car.

Meh.

I can see why this was popular in the time it was released. I think you'll like it more than I did. I prefer Earth, Wind and Fire.

Loved it. Vocals are killer.

Damn that's a long album!! Really enjoyable though

Excellent. Had some variation between songs, vocals and drums were impressive.

My feelings about music like this are complicated

LOVED THIS

Didn't really know Van Morrison beyond Brown Eyes Girl. Moondance seemed out of place with his other songs but still, very enjoyable!

Queen sucks

This has got to be the most boring music of all time.

If I could rate this lower than 1 star I would. Sounds like Adam Sandler when he's singing ridiculous songs in his movies. Awful.

Definitely hear the Springsteen influence in the first two tracks. Overall it was fine, the songs were neither exceptionally good or exceptionally bad.

Instrumentally impressive, lyrically ridiculous. Sounds like a 12 year old hired a band to play the songs he wrote. Not a fan.

Weak rhymes. Very moon, June, spoon. Weak beats. Nothing memorable or impressive. Weak lyrics. Nothing said or conveyed that hasn't been said 1,000 (1,001?) times before. I usually try to find something to appreciate even if an album isn't for me, but I'm struggling with this one.

Cacophonous

The fact that this album and Konnichiwa are both on this list is astounding. This was incredible. Loved it. Also, "I wanna be a duck!" was adorable.

Boring. Sounded like every other mildly successful female artist in the 90s (I'm not talking about queens like Mariah and Whitney). I had never heard of her before and will happily go back to never listening to her again.

Impeccable.

As with his other albums, I completely respect the artistry and thought that goes into his music. However, he kind of "talk sings", it wouldn't be remiss in a Broadway musical, which is really not my thing. But that's a me problem, doesn't mean he isn't very talented and accomplished at what he's going for.

Classic. Some songs were a little silly but can't hate on Bob.

Disjointed

Classic

This album smelled like unwashed underwear and marijuana

Honestly I was prepared to roll my eyes a bit at this but ABBA is so so good. Very pleasantly surprised

I have never liked the lead singers voice, but it's a well put together album.

I've heard many Boston songs but never really listened. They have just been in the background throughout my life. But what an impressive album! Extremely fun to listen to

This kind of folk music definitely oversaturated the market for awhile and I was initially inclined to give it a 3. However I do think the songs are well thought out, beautifully sung, and the album has a cohesive feel overall without each song sounding the same. So despite the fact that I'm personally still "over" this music, I gave it a 4 as it's not their fault everyone and their mother decided on the same style at the same time.

Shmeh. Not bad, nothing special.

3.75-I enjoyed the first half better than the second.

Oh no...

This is not Miles' fault, I just really hate this kind of music.

Obviously there are a few outstanding tracks but the rest of the album wasn't great

Some interesting lyrics

Undeniably talented. Truly one of the best. When this came out I was in Middle School and loved it, but then again, it has the humor of a middle school child. Doesn't quite hit the same on adult ears.

This is the corniest shit I've ever listened to.

I'm sure this is excellent but it's not my kind of music.

This sounds like Buckcherry.

Sometimes this experience has me questioning if I actually like music
