1001 Albums Summary

Django Django by Django Django

First album. Amazing. I had actually listened once before and had Default on repeat for a while, but I was not prepared for a more intentional listen with good headphones.

Love the Police, especially Stewart Copeland. Pretty great album start to finish. My only gripe is that it’s not my favorite album by them. Oh well

Beautiful music, just not my cup of tea.

The Man Machine by Kraftwerk
