1001 Albums Summary

Sometimes I Wish We Were An Eagle by Bill Callahan

Easy listening, acoustic indie. American west vibes.

Abraxas by Santana

Psychedelic rock. Latin roots. Easy listening. Artistic.

The White Album by Beatles

Almost every song on a 2 disc album slapped. Diversity of sound awesome. Representative of 60s rock. Classic.

Africa Brasil by Jorge Ben Jor

Brazilian funk, for a great mood.

good kid, m.A.A.d city by Kendrick Lamar

Incredible album. Let’s listeners peek into Kendrick’s youth in Compton with voicemails and dialogue through the album which later evolves in his next albums. Modern hip hop classic.

Don't Come Home A Drinkin' (With Lovin' On Your Mind) by Loretta Lynn

Emblematic of 60s country music

Songs For Swingin' Lovers! by Frank Sinatra

Culturally impactful and unmistakeable vocals by Sinatra

Destroy Rock & Roll by Mylo

Very tame electronic music. Good for listening to in the background while working. Felt a little misled by the title of destroy rock and roll thought it would have more bite

Catch A Fire by Bob Marley & The Wailers

When I think of reggae I think of Bob Marley. Overall the sound is great but comes across as repetitive. But then again I’m not the biggest fan of reggae. Agree it has an impact on music and culture, just not something I will listen to regularly.

Getz/Gilberto by Stan Getz

Enjoyed this album and its jazz rhythm and vocals collaboration. The sound alone was elegant, beautiful album

Abattoir Blues / The Lyre of Orpheus by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

Rock/rockabilly style music. Didn’t feel it was representative of 2000’s and something that would have been performed by local band at a dive? Wasn’t a fan

I Never Loved a Man the Way I Love You by Aretha Franklin

The queen of soul. Incomparable vocals what a legend

Autobahn by Kraftwerk

Experimental and progressive synth pop style. The album had 5 or 6 songs but initial song was 22 minutes, which was 20 minutes too long. quirky just not something I’d revisit

Doggystyle by Snoop Dogg

90s west coast hip hop staple !!

American IV: The Man Comes Around by Johnny Cash

Great last album of a legend. Mostly covers and unreleased tracks. He made “Hurt” completely his own. What a reflection of a truly impactful voice on American country / folk

Eliminator by ZZ Top

Dive bar vibes, throwback

Supa Dupa Fly by Missy Elliott

Enjoyed this album. Very laid back compared to what I knew of missy elliot. Lots of great featured rnb artists.
