1001 Albums Journey

Good album. But i wouldnt mind dying without listening to it. Nothing world changing, nothing special.

Dark, heavy, it sets the mood and later the music comes. the first opening Riff and that very dark tone, is what makes this as groundbreaking as it was over 50 years ago, still an amazing record.

Acabo de escuchar el black album. Para alguien quien no está acostumbrado al Metal, es un disco amigable. Muchos clasicos, temas heavy pero no taaaan heavy. Riffs que son faciles de escuchar, sin solos virtuosos tipicos del metal que te ponen a dormir, la bateria siempre basica y simple de Lars. Buena musica en general. 4 por los mega clasicos

This WAS a great record. But thanks to this soft - crying - i’m sad - type of music (which could have been ok for one record only) today rock and roll is suffering. Coldplay still packs Stadiums with their feel good soft crap, while true rock heroes are left aside.

This is a perfect album from track one till end. Harrison had so many great songs that he put them together all at once. Thanks George, we still miss you

This is where everything turned into perfection. until now, it was mostly about great songs in ok albums, but never thinking of the album as a whole. for the first time, they went into retrospective mode and wrote about themselves, their feelings, and stories that went beyond the usual "I love you and you love me". Production was sublime, the songs reach a new higher when they are though and conceived with time, no need to rush. The sitar in NW, the piano arrangement in "In my Life", the vocal harmonies in "Nowhere Man", the lesser known Im looking thru you and You wont see me are perfect and could has well have been singles, George's first real great composition with "If I needed someone". It's a perfect 10 (or 5 here), and well deserved a new listen.

Massive hits in this album, where the rest of the songs didnt age as well. Too many early 80’s arrangements, Quincy Jones was giving it all, clearly, but it feels like everything sounds pretty much the same.

Virtuoso, fast, heavy, but lacking depth. This is great when you are a teen and want to take the world by storm. Now near my 50th this sounds boring as sh*t

For me the best Black Sabbath album. Love every bot of it

not my type of music. still gave it a go. Seems too monotunous to me. I like the fact they started with a Spanish guitar, that lasted 10 seconds :) the only bit different thing was Welcome Home and Orion. Clearly I am more of a BLACK ALBUM kind of guy than this.

pleasant album, not into the story though, but good old Southern Rock is always welcome. Now, is this one of the best albums of all time? not sure. Is this the best Southern Rock album? Not sure. There you go; have a listen, enjoy a 3 star album.

All songs sound the same Typical 80s new wave sound. Feel free to skip it

Pleasant

I will pretend i have long hair and live in the 70s: this is the perfect album. Fast forward to 2025. No hair and getting old, just a 3 star album. Might listen again in 10 years: whats this pile of sh*t

it's interesting. funky, very well played. screaming 70's out loud, not an album I would play regularly, but it wouldn't be fair to deny it's a good record.

It's a good album. It's very much Pet Sounds and Pepper influenced, mostly Beach Boys. It's 1968 and the Beatles are releasing the white album, every one pretty much going back to a raw style of rocknroll, so I guess this might be the reason this wasn't much of a hit. 3 for me.

Great music for an elevator
