With The Beatles by Beatles

I love the Beatles but somehow had completely missed this album… but after listening to it, I hadn’t missed out on anything. For the most part a very forgettable album.

Are You Experienced by Jimi Hendrix
Sep 02 2025

I’ve always like the idea or aesthetic of acid rock but come to think of it I’ve never really listened to it. I particularly liked the foxy track. I think if I were to listen to this album 50 times I’d absolutely love it.

Africa Brasil by Jorge Ben Jor
Sep 03 2025

Really fun and exciting to listen to. Some of the songs reminded me of Remain in Light I wonder if Talking Heads were influenced by this artist. I will try listening to more of his music

The Chronic by Dr. Dre
Sep 04 2025

I listen to a lot of modern hip hop and rap and really enjoyed listening to this. After a few songs I really started to get into the style. That said it’s honestly very samey. After listening through most of the album and getting to work I didn’t bother listening to the rest of the tracks until the next day. Also the synth is very grating.

With The Beatles by Beatles

I love the Beatles but somehow had completely missed this album… but after listening to it, I hadn’t missed out on anything. For the most part a very forgettable album.

Songs In The Key Of Life by Stevie Wonder
Sep 07 2025

I didn’t listen to the whole album as it is quite long. But it is a real feel good album and there are some fun tracks. I didn’t know gangster paradise came from one of stevie wonders’ songs. Normally I can’t stand religious music but the more religious tracks on here were great.

Hunky Dory by David Bowie
Sep 08 2025

Doing this 1000 album thing has really showed me how little music knowledge I have. I thought I knew David Bowie but it’s embarrassing to realise I haven’t yet listened to a full album by him. This was the best hit for me yet in this album list.

Pink Moon by Nick Drake
Sep 09 2025

I really enjoyed it not something I’d normally listen to. I will have to find out more about nick drake. Edit I looked up Nick Drake and how tragic how sad if only he were recognised while still alive

Mott by Mott The Hoople
Sep 10 2025

Honestly I can see why I’ve never heard of this band. It’s not bad but pretty forgettable. There were a couple of songs in the second half I liked but not enough that I can say what songs they were looking at the titles.

Shaka Zulu by Ladysmith Black Mambazo
Sep 11 2025

Really fun to listen to. I know nothing about this kind of music so it’s hard to judge so all I can say is I enjoyed it,

Heartattack And Vine by Tom Waits
Sep 14 2025

Good for a couple of songs but his voice is not really my thing. A whole album of it is a bit much.

The Boatman's Call by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Sep 15 2025

I remember when I was in uni, one day I went down to the cinema in the library basement, where they had $5 Wednesdays, and watched nick cave’s 20,000 days on earth. It was an incredible movie and I absolutely loved it. I can’t say how many times I listened to Push the sky away. Since then I haven’t listened to much of his other music so am very happy he is on this list. He has this poetic, abstract lyrical style which normally I would hate but for whatever reason it really connects with me when it’s nick cave. I hope to hear more of his music on this list

Tarkus by Emerson, Lake & Palmer

Abraxas by Santana

Really cool guitar, tough to listen to on the morning commute as it makes me want to drive fast! :)

Kind Of Blue by Miles Davis
Nov 04 2025

Oh yeah miles davis
