1001 Albums Summary

Some kind of British pop-electric-prog-dance thing. Nothing too special.

Classic Marley. Bluesier than I expected. Not sure how it rates compared to his other works; the only "hit" here is No Woman No Cry.

Chill acoustic. Didn't grab me, be I liked it.

Its Clapton, but I didn't dig it. I guess I've never really liked his stuff? Just sounds like a lot of noise to me; maybe its how its mixed. A surprising take given my affinity for most classic rock.

Peak zeppelin.

Excellent.

Generic 80s/90s synth pop. Wandering nasal vocals. Not my scene.

Where did this come from? This is excellent. Good weird skat, solid groove, thoughtful solos.

I do love Joni, and there's a lot of good ones here.

So gritty. These songs go hard, but kind of all sound the same to me.

British punk proto ska. Just made me want to listen to the police

This can't be the same band that made Rumours. All the fire is gone. With exception of the last couple tracks the songs are wandering and listless.

A classic? Hard to tell from passive listening while working. Most of the art is the lyrics, and I'd have to listen again.

A very strong showing of acoustic Dylan.

An eclectic collection of song types. Must have been revolutionary at the time, but feels a bit stale now.

This is some very funky funk. Excellent party music, but songs drags on a bit for focused listening.

Groovin.

Very 90s. Smashmouth-esque voiced by Lord farquad. Quirky yet strangely alluring.

What a time capsule. All the synth, choir, slap bass and choppy guitar feel a touch cheesy now. Lyrics are surprisingly challenging and non pop. I have no doubt it was huge at the time.

Sublime. Low key electronica/pop. Reminds me of zero7.

The hits are good, but the rest don't measure up. Generic pop?

Gritty unvarnished punk.

Surprising enjoyable. Maybe I needed a laid back album.

Goes down smooth, but ultimately didn't grab me.

Tasty blues. But blues is like chocolate to me, just can't eat too much of it.

A retro vibe and strong songcraft.

At the time I thought Radiohead was all hype. I do believe I was wrong, though this album doesn't make it to five stars for me.

Creative lyrics, but I don't get it.

Pretty good.

Didn't expect to like this as much as I did.

Meh.

A caricature of 80s music. The sounds are good but the content wasn't.

I know it's a bit cringe and 100% dad rock, but I have always loved how Mark Knopfler plays guitar.

Hardcore grunge tastic meltdown. Tbh I had never listened to anything but the singles. The other tracks are way more hardcore.

Aww, little baby numetal. So cute.

This is great stuff. Creative, cohesive, catchy.

Proggy enough to have musical depth, rocky enough to be a headbanger. The sweet spot.

Didn't dig it.

Eh. Never been a big fan of the Smiths. Not entirely sure why.

I have no basis to judge this against.

Too experimental for me.

A couple good songs but I expected more from Tom.

Not bad, but kinda slow paced.
