1001 Albums Summary

This is the first album I was recommended and each song is very different than the others. This album spans a lot of different genres, from Jazz to Country. I’m not too familiar with UK culture in the 80’s, but this didn’t resonate with me much. I think the way I’ll rate each album is by comparing the number of songs I’d listen to again to the total number of songs, then converting them into the rating system. I’ll list each song I enjoyed and add the “rating” at the bottom. Tango Till They’re Sore Big Black Mariah Time Gun Street Girl Blind Love Anywhere I Lay My Head 6/19

Such an iconic and influential album, especially considering it was their debut. A lot of their influences from Jazz, Blues, and R&B really shine through too. Break on Through is an amazing opener. Break on Through (To the Other Side) Soul Kitchen Light My Fire Back Door Man I Looked at You End of the Night The End I will say that Light my Fire and The End make almost half of the entire albums runtime, which is something to consider when rating the whole album. 7/11
