1001 Albums Summary

Maybe I’d like this more if I were a dad.

The joy of hearing a new ABBA song is matched only by the joy of hearing one you’ve loved for as long as you can remember.

I wish they trimmed the fat and this was a 1/3 of the length. 2.5/5

It’s more like a 2.5 with a handful of songs closer to a 3.5 but it’s not interesting enough to be so damn long.

A classic for a reason!

A solid 3 stars, weather dependent.

More of a 2.75. Enjoyable but not at all memorable.

I can’t remember the last time I was this pleasantly surprised by an album. It felt familiar and fresh at the same time and already feels like something I’ll return to continuously.

me encanta mucho 💫

This was the first time I thought “maybe I don’t want to listen to all 1,001 albums”

This was made for middle school boys. 1.5/5

Forgettable but some great Guitar Moments.

Cool that they have DIY leftist roots, wish there was any sign of that in this album

As everyone said, The Weight is a classic for a reason. 3.5/5

More of whatever this!

Tough to rate because it’s so deeply nostalgic and made me look up the next aerobics class openings, but it’s impossible to forget that he’s an awful person. And a few tracks are true duds. Man in the Mirror is painfully ironic.

This gave me anxiety

I like the beats and that’s about it.

This is how I want hip-hop to make me feel!!

4.5 A perfect late spring album imo

Sonically, this is so enjoyable and light. Lyrically? yikes

4.5

2.75

3.5

10/10 first track, the rest is good but not great

3.75

Some truly 5 star songs, some let downs (looking at you, title track)

Maybe 2.5? Boring, but mostly not abrasive

Had so much potential, but really started to blend together for me

3.75

Enjoyable enough but fairly forgettable

I love it and then Run For Your Life comes on….

More like a 2.5- not bad but I would never seek it out and no song caught my attention

DNF I understand it’s iconic but…

More like a 3.5. I don’t know if I was just in the right mood for Dad Rock but I really enjoyed it

2.75, mostly forgettable

An example of a few truly great songs carrying a just fine album

2.75 It’s not for me but I can recognise that it’s compelling and good at what it does

3.75

2.5 Mostly forgettable

a forever fave!!

There are some songs I adore on this album and some I struggle to get through. 3.5
