1001 Albums Summary

5 Incredible album, listened for the first time a couple months ago. stevie really is one of the best songwriters and singers of all time.

not my favorite but i kept hearing elvis’s voice when little richard was singing

different than other songs i’ve heard by the beatles. more fun and obviously this album was known for being recorded and written on hallucinogenics.

not as good as dsotm but still has the same vibe

people think this is a patriotic album, but it’s a critique on the american dream. his music feels like it’s a part of my dna

already love the cover art and i know some of cyndi’s most famous songs are on here so im excited

as someone who listens to a lot of hip-hop/rap i wish i enjoyed more og rap. i think it’s interesting because a lot of the production on this album was similar to artists i really enjoy like the refugees and lauryn hill.

i have never heard of this band or album so i honestly have no idea what to expect. sounded like weird electronic covers of songs that already existed

another og rap album but i’ve never listened to them. will be interesting to compare this to the method man album from earlier this week. just off the first song i am getting more of a west coast vibe

i’ve kind of always been a self proclaimed beatles hater but this album is very enjoyable. honestly i’m enjoying the whole story a lot more than i would have expected. halfway through and looking up copies of the album for my record player lol

i don’t know anything about this album or what it’s going to sound like.

this is an example of why i cannot write off an album before i have listened to the whole thing. the first 8 songs were pretty unenjoyable but then “we’re going to be friends” came on which was very enjoyable and i wouldn’t have found it had i stopped listening to the album

literally no idea what this is going to sound like lol. the album cover looks like a modern day rap album but this is from 1986. and the title of the album is throwing me off. here we go, very folky and enjoyable

very enjoyable while driving, reading, dissociating

i was not expecting jim morrison to sound like that lol. it was much slower paced than other rock i’m used to but i did enjoy

so pleasantly surprised! this was jack johnson in the 70s

easy to listen to

wasn’t really my vibe but i appreciate its impact

did not enjoy this album as much as hatful of hollow

not my fav rhcp but still the same sound

this album kept me on my toes. this was my first impression of neil young and at first i thought he had a bob dylan type sound but then it started getting more rocky? and then at the end it had pink floyd vibes lol

love all the 60s and 70s bands that are named as the _____ brothers. upbeat and fun

it was slow and sometimes repetitive

my favorite beatles album so far

i like the cure but didn’t really like this

enjoyed the grunge folky style of the band

finally a modern album lol. i actually love janelle but have never listened to their music so i am really excited. okay 1/3 through and i am enjoying the album even though its different than i had originally expected. okay im loving this way more than i thought i would.

the 3 of their voices together genuinely sounded like the perfect melody

it was very theatrical which is not my personal favorite

i actually have this album on vinyl and have enjoyed it. i usually listen to these albums with my headphones which always feels more immersive. honestly way shorter than i thought it would be. crazy how you can just imagine this music really giving off a strong emotion in the background of an old black and white movie

it wasn’t objectively bad but it was not my cup of tea. maybe if i was drunk and it was summer and i was 19?

makes you feel like you shouldn’t take anything too seriously

powerful message about love, family, and domestic violence. i love fast car so i really wanted to love it but i wasn’t blown away by a lot of the songs

a beautiful tribute to the challenges of black creatives

i like elton and this was an album i had never listened to but genuinely blew me away

had a fire peter gabriel vibe

it was 60s folk and i enjoyed it more than i thought it would

it was fun 90s pop with a more punk feel

enjoyed it more than i expected

amazing album

i enjoyed a lot more than i was expecting. it was clear, thoughtful, and easy to listen to

nice jazz r&b album

sounds like classic 80s rock

actually like this more than the other album i listened to by him that’s more famous. it sounds more like bruce springsteen’s nebraska. more singing than talking and not so drawn out.

it was probably what people of the 70s thought future music would sound like

idk why but i thought this band was from like the 80s. fire album cover. i actually really enjoyed how the main singer sounds like he is singing far away. solid guitar and drum additions

such a raw yet subdued masterpiece

my first listen by her. i really enjoyed this album and it really reminded me of janelle monae who no doubly took inspiration from bjork

bruce can do no wrong in my eyes. this wasn’t an album my parents played much growing up so i listened for the first time last year. i loved seeing a different side of an artist i had loved all my life. i saw the biopic with jeremy allen white at the same time and that made me appreciate this album in a new way.

i remember the first time i listened to this album and i really understood why he is regarded as one of the best. this album is one of the rare ones i will classify as timeless- meaning it could have come out at any time and it would still be meaningful and enjoyable

he is a terrible human being but man can he make music

it was more funky and british than other music i know by them

this was an eclectic album where there really wasn’t a cohesive piece. kind of felt like a bunch of random singles put together but each song was pretty good on its own

i really enjoyed this but i thought it was interesting that this came out on 9/11/01

mostly instrumental but i enjoyed how intentional it felt

i never listen to spanish music but i honestly really liked the uplifting feeling i had while listening

this was a very unique album it was fun yet also serious and a lot of songs felt like remixes of older songs

first thought- i was not expecting this to sound like sufjan stevens. not in voice but in content. it also reminds me of the beatles in the way of production and cadence. i can’t believe this was made in 2010

she can do no wrong in my eyes. i would listen to her sing my grocery list

i know why these 2 are so famous idk what they put in these albums man lol

eclectic mix of upbeat and softer songs

it’s funky it’s jazzy and it’s poppy

this is one of those albums that before i started i didn’t think i would like but it’s honestly beautiful and im only halfway through. this is kind of jazzy with the piano

if you told me this was the beatles or the rolling stones i would have believed you

it was honestly a more philosophical and spiritual album than i was expecting

definitely nothing like i’ve heard before in my life and even though i couldn’t understand the words i felt the vibes

this was actually really good

i’m a self proclaimed not beyoncé fan but this album might have turned me. an almost perfect album

i actually listened to this maybe a week or so ago, i like nico’s voice it almost sounds like a church singer

did everyone get this album today 🥹

this was very fun and theatrical

not bad but not good

not my vibe

it was okay there was 1 song i really liked

this is the 4th elvis costello album im sure he has fans but not across the board and surely not enough for 4+ of his albums to end up on this list.
