1001 Albums Summary

I like his soft, melodious voice, and his lulling guitar. Very calming and the selection of songs are very story-like.

Another banger from MJ, showing us why he was known as the King of Pop

Huh, so that's who Buddy Holly is. This album has classics and you can hear where the evolution of certain musical chords came from. A bit outdated, but it is almost 70 years old.

I like this blues man. The "Mannish Boy" song is the one with the often heard repeated riff.

Maybe it was just the songs in this selection, but Mr Hendrix is an amazing guitarist but not as much a singer. The things he does to a guitar are magical, with a transportive quality.

The amazing Cash songs of HURT, The Man Comes Around. In My Life was a surprisingly touching ballad. His cover of Personal Jesus is also mellow and one of the better ones. The gravelly tones of Mr Cash are fitting for the songs of this album.

Apart from the "Right Here, Right Now", I've never heard any other songs from this album, or indeed, any other Fatboy Slim songs at all. They're pretty good. I think I've heard "Praise You" before as well, that's another good one.

First time I've heard a full Beatles album, and not a cover. I like Mr Postman, Roll Over Beethoven (first seen from the dog movies), Hold me Tight. Even though it's a bit old, you can still hear their influences today (2025)

Ah, Gangster Rap. First full album of it I heard. The beats are catchy, the slang is understandable, and the voices are deep and smooth, and the pain they convey is real. I had an appreciation for it from the movie "Straight Outta Compton", and the rest of the album doesn't disappoint.

Kind of ironic that I get this album recommended just as news that Ozzy Osbourne passed away (22/07/2025). Some great memorable tracks and electric guitar solos.

eh, its okay

The fifth and final Simon and Garfunkel album has plenty of expected high hallmarks, such as "Bridge over Troubled Waters". A combination of piano, guitar and soothing vocals to coat the whole album in good vibes, such as "So Long Frank Lloyd Wright" and the parts of "The Boxer" that suddenly add the brass section.

Although the lyrics are impactful and the melodies fitting, the main vocalists' voice doesn't exactly fit the tone.

It's okay. They've got passion.

These ballads are great! I love the Orpheus song

eh, its okay

Ah, the famous White Album. It has several great music tracks, ballad tracks and "My Guitar Gently Weeps". I didn't quite understand "Section 9", which sounded like the experience of half-waking from a lucid dream.

I liked some of the Promenade pieces and the Baba Yaga section was great!

So that's what Janis Joplin sounds like. She's not too bad, and very croony.

I like their rap.

Yes, I like this yelling rock

love a bit of classic rock

love a bit of classic rock

Yay for metal

it was okay, not really my thing

They have a great garage band feel. I like their song for Cyberpunk Edgerunners "This Fire", the songs "Take Me Out" and "Come on Home"

Screaming girl teen rock. Despite this, I'm a fan.

Everybody DOES want to rule the world!

despite having their songs shared with all our smart phones back in the day, I don't hold it against the quality of their songs. Songs of note: I still haven't found what I'm looking for, with or without you

Yep, It's great.

Feel like something from Fallout New Vegas radio

I like your methods, man

Cash songs are a great act, and the live performance at a prison for the inmates adds to the legend. I like the Boy named Sue.

It was okay. Not quite my sound.

It was OK

I like the pop

It was great!

it was ok

Very ethereal, almost alien sounding soundtrack. I wish it were longer.

Full of modern pop hits, it sounds great, but safe.

I like it. Prince is having fun with the songs. When Doves cry was great

it was okay

It was great but I didn't like the live sound

Psychedelic. I like it!

Amazing album, full of smooth soul

I'm beginning to think that the recommendation algorithm is sometimes given a push, especially with NIN doing the newly released TRON Ares soundtrack. (I'm a sucker for TRON)

I love lounge music!

Such Machine, Much Rage

wow, this really is ambient

Oh, she's the one who sang "I feel the Earth move under my feet"! That's a good one. Also "You make me feel like a woman"

it was great! I liked the devil song

Full of energy, but not really for me.

Great soul music

Relax really makes you feel like a brainwashed male model sent to assassinate the Prime Minister of Malaysia

It was... interesting
