1001 Albums Summary

I'm not a huge U2 fan, but do own all their CD's. This is not one of my favorites by them but it certainly isn't the worst.

I never really got into Portishead. This album ventures a little too far off center for me. Some of the songs remind me of Poe, whom I actually like better.

While Bowie may be a Rock-n-Roll icon, I can take him or leave him. This album was just okay to me.

A timely album to listen to being it's a day after Ozzy's passing. The album that started it all for him and what a musical career he had! I never was a Black Sabbath or Ozzy fan. Although, I have come to appreciate his music and definitely get pumped up every time I hear "Crazy Train" at a football game.

Rap, R&B, & Soul are not my top genres of music to listen to, although I do like and appreciate some artists in those genres. Lauryn Hill just isn't for me.

A truly classic album! This would certainly rank in my Top 1000! Paul's musical style and lyrical content make this a great listen. The older I get, the more and more I love the music from the 80's! Graceland & You Can Call Me Al are right up there as some of the best songs from the best decade of music!

The album that started it all for Green Day. It's great from start to finish! I was in college when it came out and have had it in my collection since day one.

I love a good classic rock album, but this one would not make my Top 100 in this genre.

I remember when this album came out but never really jumped on the eels bandwagon. Listening through this record makes me want to add it to my CD collection and investigate the rest of the eels discography. I like that he doesn't shy away from subject matter or deep personal feelings or even asking questions about something greater in this world. My favorite lyrics on this album are from "Novocaine for the Soul"... "You better give me something so I don't die... Jesus and his lawyer are coming back." While it's my understanding that E isn't a Christian, there were no truer words spoken. Jesus will fill the hole in your life.

This album came out a year after I was born. I've never heard of this band before and certainly didn't recognize any of their songs. It's a good classic rock album but didn't really do anything for me.

The album that got me into R.E.M. And now I own their entire discography! Automatic For The People is packed with great songs! From the lead song Drive to Everybody Hurts to Man on the Moon! The band released a total of 6 singles with three of them hitting the Top 30 on the Billboard chart.

Another early 70's album by a group I haven't heard of. I would have been okay with having never heard it.

While I do like Genesis, this album is not even close to my favorite of theirs. This album falls in and out of psychedelic rock sounds, which just doesn't do it for me.

Radiohead is a good band. My son loves them! He says this is the best album ever recorded. For me, it's just so so.

Another new listen. The Pentangle is a 60's version of Edward Sharpe & The Magnificent Zeros. I'm much rather listen to ES&TMZ!

I moved to the Nashville area in 1999. While I knew of Johnny Cash before I moved, I really learned what a legend he was in this town! You can't help but start to like his music while living in Nashville! I certainly became a fan! What a great live record that really showcases his personality and some of his biggest hits! R.I.P. Johnny!

most of this album gave me a headache, but that's the case with most Jazz music. I can appreciate his talent and artistry, but my ears can't.

My techno eays are long behind me!

yeah, not a fan!

One of these days the AG will tell me to listen to a band I've never heard of and I'll actually like it. Not so here.

classic group with a classic hit "The Weight"! Their name is either really clever and some sort of inside joke or really boring and no one could come up with anything good.

Great album, great songs! The beginning of a good run of music from Duran Duran!

not awful for a jazz album

The older I get the less I enjoy listening to harder rock music. I was never into Korn anyway. So, from a musical perspective, I didn't really care for this album. I do like Brian "Head" Welch's story, which can be read in his book "Save Me From Myself". An amazing redemptive story!

All of a sudden I'm in the mood for Mexican food! And a Mexican restaurant about the only place I really care to listen to this kind of music.

A good, but not amazing album from a classic rock group.

It's Prince! It's the 80's! It's good! While I was never a huge Prince fan, I've always liked his music. This album seems a bit more mellow than some of his other releases, and for me, didn't have recognizable hits.

Great album! Adele is amazing! 21 brings back a lot of good memories. One of which is my daughter and her friend making a video to Rumour Has It. They substituted "rumour" with our dog's name "Boomer". It was super cute and had shots of Boomer through out the video. Anyway, back to the music... Adele's voice is amazing! This was definitely her breakout album with hits scattered throughout!

meh.. r&b... not my thing.

not all music is for all people... this would not make my Top 2000.

Any Beatles album is top notch in my book!

Classic Rock group... classic rock album... just a little too psychedelic for me.

uh, yeah... no!

First time hearing this album. I thought it was a good classic rock album but didn't blow me away.

Always good to hear a UK band I'm not familiar with. This is a group that could easily enter the rotation!

Bowie has better albums!

I knew this was a "NAH!!!" but listened to it anyway. Yeah, not for me.

Some music is just noise. I'll give them Sabatoge off this album, but the rest just gives me a headache. I will say, I did fight for my right to party eight years earlier, which I think was the best song this group ever released.

Finally an artist and album that I've never heard of that I actually like. I wasn't so sure what this would be like looking at the cover (it lowered my expectation), but after listening to I can see it's pretty fitting! Really enjoyed this one!

It's been quite awhile since I've listened to this album. It's much better than I remember!

Great debut album from a great British band!

Another new artist for me. I liked this album, even though it was pretty mellow. I'd have to sit and really listen to the lyrics to see how much I really liked it.

YES!

Great album. Her voice is so distinguishable!

Smooth R&B. The dude's got talent.

Excellent Queen album!!

It was alright.

I enjoyed this one! Another new artist to my ears.

yeah, this didn't do it for me.

I wish I had the time to REALLY listen to this and dig into the lyrics of these songs. Musically, this is great! I enjoy listening to him sing!

I've never listened to an entire Linkin Park album before, and this just confirmed my dislike for the band.

Frank is the GOAT! Enough said!

not my new favorite band...

Waylon is definitely on the Mt. Rushmore of Country Music. Great album!

Not feeling the funk this morning... but as funk goes, this group is top notch!

Easily my favorite Van Halen album!

Another classic from one of the greatest Rock Bands of all time!

this selection almost made 3 good albums in a row... Keep trying Album Generator!

Can't ever go wrong with the Rolling Stones!

Three Stones albums in a week's time? Okay, I'll say it again... can't go wrong with a Stones album! This may be my favorite of the three that have been generated this week!

The 20th Anniversary edition on Spotify just might make this the longest album ever! Not a huge fan, so I should go!

I skipped almost every song on this record due to his use of the "n" word. Be better Lamar!

I have to be in the mood for Marley. 7AM while you're working isn't the right time. Otherwise, good album.

Iconic Artist with a troubled history. Bad is one his best two albums, with Thriller being his best.

One of my favorite classic rock bands that I've neglected to actually collect their CD's. That will change soon!

Pretty mellow album for Beck. I prefer his more upbeat stuff.

Joan was a pleasant surprise. Reminded me a little bit of Tracy Chapman.

One of the best storytelling songwriters of the last 100 years! Great album!

There are absolutely more than 1000 albums in the world better than this one!
