1001 Albums Summary

Last song is weird. Pretty much every other song is a 9 or 10 though (on first listen)

One of my favourite albums of all time, 10/10

Pretty solid album. Consistent sound across, nice and relaxing country(?)/folky sound. could put on in the background of a drive across the Manitoba plains and just stare out the window.

i like ella fitzgerald but i wasnt a huge fan of this album itself

Pretty good socially conscious rap album. Verses regarding the beauty of earth and life and god. Uplifting, good beats, and I could see how this would be influential in its time. This era of more socially conscious rap is beautiful, like brand nubian, tribe called quest, jeru the demaja. I do feel as though this group is more godly and family friendly? A lot of the beats remind me of public enemy, so they must have been influenced by them. Pretty cool album though, less black social consciousness and more religious preaching rap? interesting intersection, and especially interesting to me since during this period a lot of Black artists would have been aligned with islam and the black brotherhood sort of mentality, retracing roots to Africa.

Eh not really my thing

I liked it, super folky and the lyrics were pretty good. Vegas voice in this album is soft and emotional and it tickled my heart in a good way. Great album imo sorry to the haters who disagree.
