1001 Albums Summary

Central Reservation by Beth Orton

Very sleepy and a similar sound to several other female 90s artists, but not as good.

Darkness on the Edge of Town by Bruce Springsteen

First few tracks are a little iffy but it picks up on the second half.

Songs For Swingin' Lovers! by Frank Sinatra

Getz/Gilberto by Stan Getz

Im the furthest thing from a Jazz expert so I couldn't even tell you the difference between good and bad jazz. That being said it made for a relaxing commute to work and the vocals and brass were all well done. Is this my gateway jazz album that will transform me into a crazed brasshead? No, probably not but did I enjoy listening and fantising about being in a fancy suit, smoking a cigar, and drinking brandy in an uptown, classy jazz bar? You bet I did.

Nilsson Schmilsson by Harry Nilsson

This album has it all! It really runs the gambit from a few genuine hits, a couple clunkers, a few nice grooves to drive to, a pinch of cheesyness, and a Spanish version of a hit on the same album as the English! BTW: Is Harry Nilsson the godfather of putting the "schm" sound in front of words?! I genuinely want to believe it! I had fun listening to this album.
