1001 Albums Summary

Have always liked this album and have listened to it many times. Have liked pretty much everything Daft Punk has put out.

I’m a David Bowie fan, but was unfamiliar with this album. It had the avant-garde sophistication of Bowie. Very well executed. But, wasn’t exciting to me and will probably not give it a second listen.

Love a catchy pop song and 80s nostalgia.

Dolly’s voice is so natural and pure. Stories sung with effortless charm.

I love the pristine production, everything sounded so clean and defined. Bjork has been a stand out talent for decades. No one comes close to what she does vocally.

I respect it, but never jelled with this 90s gangster rap. I would have been in high school when this came out and had friends that were into it so I heard this album a bit. Never drew me in though.

Great album. Very approachable and easy listening for a punk band. A lot of different styles are covered here, but with attitude and some grit.

Not sure I really get it. I understand he’s a pioneer of rock and roll, but in the context of hearing all that came after it’s hard discern what was edgy and provocative about this. When the Brits took the blues and cranked up the angst and bravado, that’s when it started to feel like rock and roll to me.

I like every song on this album. I think this album is where this band really started soaring creatively.

One of my all time favorites. Great atmospheric composition. Five out of five.

This was my first listen and not sure how I missed this band. This is right up my alley. Love the songs and production. Will check out more of their catalog.

This must have been ahead of the curve. Sounds like bands that were popular closer to the mid eighties.

Was skeptical going in not being familiar with Dion other than Runaround Sue and other early 50s pop songs. I listened to the first song and then didn’t pull it up again for a couple weeks. But, on a quiet Sunday morning I put it on and listened straight through it and found it pretty enjoyable. Some surprisingly honest lyrics and rich arrangements.

What a voice. What a vibe. Super cool.

Great vocal performance.
