1001 Albums Summary

GRITTY and RASPY blues. Savin all my love for you has a Christmas feel cause of the bells but is more of a sad love song. The lyrics are sung emotional and very rough, singing style is nothing I’ve heard I’ve heard before. Haven’t heard of Tom waits before getting this album and not sure how I feel. Musically, good, singing maybe not for me. Kinda all over the place with ballads and then blues.

Two songs in now and so far I like it. Good ole johnny cash stuff. Love the talking to the crowd. Got some staples of Johnny in here with Walk the Line, A Boy Named Sue, and Folsom Prison Blues. Definitely would recommend to people who are into country or Cash. San Quentin prison song is really cool coming from the viewpoint of an inmate and his hatred of the prison and how everyone thinks going to prison will make them automatically better when they leave. Great song. Solid record. 8/10 4 Stars

Classic Rap album, only knew nothin but a G thang. Pretty good, some songs were a bit too long. I’d give it a 7/10

Interesting rock album, singer reminded me of David Bowie, musically great moments, singing was eh for me but not bad whatsoever. 5/10

I know that run dmc are like one of the main staples when it comes to artists that made rap and hip-hop mainstream but good lord this album is bad. I skipped through half of it because everything sounded the same. Kinda like when a kid plays with the toy piano. 2/10

Pretty good first real intro to M.I.A. Heard the hit, but cool to hear her other stuff. Pretty unique from anything I’ve heard but it was intriguing throughout the whole record. 6.8/10

Some bangers, some wild song. Mother was something else 😂
