1001 Albums Summary

Solide album. Wat te verwachten viel van de clash. Rauwe gitaren, goeie hooks en korte to-the-point liedjes.

Classic as classics get up until Polly, then just excellent. 9 out of 10 but saving 5 stars for their Unplugged (if it is included)

Beatiful album, tight band and some great vocals.

Separating the art from the artist: 3 stars

So good, not nearly his best, still 4 stars

Great sound, nicely latered with a few really standout tracks

One of the greatest voices, great collection of songs

some great, some not so great

Just imagine releasing your debut record and it's this one - crazy

A few goodsongs that all have somethjng off putting and a couple of mehs add up to two stars

One of the most diverse albums there are - messy, polished, but all beautifully crafted songs and my favoutite one fron the Beatles

Not fan of the genre and this album did not change that

Not for dedicated listening

Just fine as background or club music, but hlad there was some sort of platlist that seemed representative of the original recording instead of the almost 4 hour 'album' on Spotify

Very mixed feelings about this one. Never explored her music before and was excited to do so. Started off great, but then boredom took over, and 3/4 in I thought it was great again, then meh again. I thjnk I actually like it better than 3 stars but it was the wrong day to listen to.

Never heard of this, but still disappointed: - 20+ albums in and this is the first one of this century, and - i loved the idea of these styles fusion biut - way too repetitive and - so many tango type instruments that can provide such deep emotions but ybfirtunately sound quite hollow here

What a dated sounding album - should not be on the list. Side 1 is just overall dreadful but the title track/side 2 saves it from 1 star

What a great album this is. Hadn't listened in a while but so beautiful. Best to be listened in full and get absorbed by the soundscape. Are all songs 5 stars? Mostly yes, but all are at least 4+. Add to that that the title track and the monumental Svefn-g-englar are easily 6 on a scale of 5 and my vote is clear.

Like it, not love it

Incrdible voice and orchestration.

Great start, but not consistently great

Hits are the best

What a nice surprise! Never even heard of the band, but really enjoyable and bit chaotic (diverse) music.

So outdated that it sounds silly at times

This was really beautiful and masterfully played

Nice to hear

Pleasant at times, but repetitive and not really goung anywhere

Pff

Yes, clubbing in the nineties!

Never really explored his music. I expected this to be good, but wow - what a voice and orchestration. Fantastic songs!

3+ stars oyt if 5

One of the greatest albums ever made

Virtuoso, yes. Tight, yes. But it is telling that 'songwise' the best track by a lot is a cover (not talking about this ice cream song)

Disappointment

Ok

Nice!

This was a great surprise! Did not know what to expect, but really special. Also, Spotify generated playlist after the album was great.

Ok

Just uncomplicated and fun

Surprise, surprise - a heavy metal album I actually love

Couple of great tunes and mostly decent 7- out of 10 makes 3 stars

Great vibes but uneven

no songs really stood out

Almost 5 stars, great production!

Big band perfection!

Lijed Juju better but still good

yeah!!

Meh

Beautiful voice some nice arrangements, but songs just ok

Lovely surprise!

One of my favorite albums of all time

Love Karma Chameleon, but otherwise rather disappointing

Few good tracks and a lot of nonsense

great, 4+

Quite good surprise

Best of the Berlin trilogy

Hits are good, overall quite boring and bland

excellent album, with just a few weaker songs towards the end starting with "Boss Of Me" (but not including one of the very best "You Feel So Lonely You Could Die"). Absolute standout remains "Where Are We Now"

Opening track - nice groove, i thought I'd like this, 4 stars! But then the rest - each of them on their own low 2 stars with perhaps 2 or 3 threes. But... the album as a whole became just so repetitve, bland and boring that it started to annoy me. As a whole: 1 star.

Such a strong album with just a few filler tracks towards the end (not including the jimi covers). But there are several tracks that go beyond 5 stars and make this one of my favourite albums of artists that I would personally rank tier 2 (say somewhere in range top 20-50 of artists). Think the title track, If You Have To Ask, I Could Have Lied, Give It Away and of course Under The Bridge.

Separating art and artist for many reasons but still one star deduction

9/10 big surprise

A couple of nice grooves can't save overall juvenile album

4.499999/5 stars

Wow, really nice! I will round the 9/10 up today

Love vigilantes I knew already, one of my favourite tracks fron the 80s 10/10!). The rest was not consistent enough for 5 stars overall, but a few more glimpses of brilliance (Sunrise!)

the hits are perfect, the others really good

From the Bends to Hail to the Thief is one of the best 5 album streaks ever. I'd rate the Bends probably at the bottom of them, but still a solid 5 stars (9/10)

just don't like the squeaky singing, test is ace

Side b: 3 stars, side a: 1 star

just fine

Conflicted on 3 or 4 stars. Stacked up against Bruce's own discography it is clearly at the lower end. Also not very consistent, bur a couple of gems (you're missing, city in ruins, skin to skin and worlds apart) push it towards a 3.5 which I will round up

First time I really wanted the looong, dragging album to be over asap. I just hated the grunting and ultra fast lick drums. But then more towards the end there were actually some songs that did nit have those and actually soonded really good.

Wow, wow, wow!

7/10

9/10

thankfully there is sultans of swing. This 6/5 star classic pushes the album to an easy 4/5 instead of having to think deeply about the rating for this otherwise solid 7/10 album.

Just no

almost 4 stars

Nice surprise!

Nothing memorable, but nice

Low 3

Inconsistent and juvenile but quite a fee tracks with great flow

6.9/10

Sone great tracks, but also getting weirder towards the end. 7/10 rounded up

Tad disappointed, the song s I knew alteady are great but overall a bit boring

Some outstanding tracks, overall not as consistent as Are You Experienced

What an energy!

1.4 stars

Strong 4!

4.4 stars!!

Fun listen

2,4 stars

Strong 4!
