1001 Albums Summary

A product of its time. Its alright, a couple of songs which everyone will have heard and are pretty iconic but overplayed at this point. The rest all just sound like generic Arctic Monkeys songs.

Maybe you have to be from Illinois? Rubbish. Pretentious poetic drivel. Bad start, less worse middle, then back to that annoying guy who brings a guitar to a party.

It's okay. A bit too folky for me, no doubt inspired people like Mumford or Mountains/Men. All a bit samey.

Enjoyed it. Wife said it was a racket

Decent. Had never listened but glad I have. Probably won't go into usual rotation though

Bit too warbly

No strong feelings one way or the other. I have no nostalgia but can see how this would've been fairly important in 1990. Now, except for the Groove is in the Heart , why would I want to sit and listen to an album of generic dance music, some of which is too slow anyway ? Pretty unmemorable but wouldn't say I hated it.

Actually alright

Nice easy listening

Jaunty Country

Great start, mid mid, then Free Bird <3

5/5

Meh. Too old

The Beatles with a head injury

Not a hip-hop fan but this seems fine

Rubbish

4/5. I like this. Fades away a bit. Will add to vinyl collection potentially

Not exactly my vibe - psych/funk/soul with long instrumental breaks and very 60s melodies. I see why it might have been particularly important for it’s time given it’s social content, so historically I understand the inclusion of it but I didn’t find much that interested me musically or melodically.

Fine, not good, not bad, a bit boring.

Appreciate the history, but I'm not good at hearing lyrics and only have the time to listen once. I appreciate how much this would have shaped music I do like. My wife asked me if it was Muse so I divorced her.

Boring & at times annoying. 2/5

A whole lot of nothing in particular.

Good in the 60's I bet 3/5

This can't be their best album ? , a mixed bag , 3.5/5

Apart from the 2 songs that made it out of 1991 this album is trash

Annoying

Not for me

This album really annoys me. I feel like I should like it but it's such 'fake happiness.' I just get the sense that they're trying to be all elated and happy but they're actually miserable as sin. Additionally just irritates me with the stupid synth voice. We get it, you discovered a way to make yourself sound like a robot. STOP IT! . Reminds me of a kid who has found the DJ button on a keyboard.

This was pretty rubbish. One of the 'songs' has someone snoring throughout it ? An assault on the ears at times

Apart from Somebody To Love, this is a bit too old for me to enjoy

Wasn't minding it until halfway through it just got gross for he sake of it it.

Just noise. Don't want to go all the way through this

Always 5/5, love this album

I was playing fallout new vegas so it was fine

Dreadful

Good until it goes a bit weird at the end.

3.5

Can't get on with his voice at all

Average and a bit nothingy

Demonic and wrist slashy

Not their best, but some classics in there. Enjoyed it as would do with any Beatles. Got better as it went on

Average

Warbling

They're just weird and very Lahndon at times

Too sexy

The most generic bang average 00's pop ever

The Beatles were a bit weird sometimes weren't they

Just annoying really

Didn't mind, would listen again

This is absolute wank. Makes you want to *Title*

I like this

In the bar on holiday

Lift Jazz

Never would've found this. Probably wouldn't listen again. Very ethereal, but not bad.

A bit noisy but pretty good

Too much do do doo ing

Bizarre but I kinda liked it

Actually alright, short and sweet

Very nothingy. Barry B Benson would enjoy it

A bit wailing

Not the best of the Beatles but a solid 4, it's the Beatles.

Load of nonsense and rubbish

Felt a bit too long overall

Fine

Can see what sort of music it inspired, but this is weird new wave punk that's just too early to be any good.

Proper old man music is what anyone younger than 30 would say

Quite depressing and forgettable

Finally some good fuckin music

Very drab and dreary

Couldn't wait for it to be over

Slaps

Background music

Rubbish

The saxophone sounds like when a fly gets stuck between your blinds and windows

Strange

Except from riders on the storm, the doors are a bit too old to appreciate in modern times unfortunately.

Average Bowie

<3

This is like a non flavoured ice cream that's been left out the freezer for too long. Smooth, boring and quite disappointing.

Not my genre

Alright, nothing special. Poor man's Talking Heads

Was surprised by this , good background listening 3.5

Good as an art, not for me to enjoy listening to

It's not bad music, it's just a bit slow and dreary for my taste.

Country rocky folky too long blegh

I do appreciate Amy Winehouse but I was very bored towards the end of this album.

No. I struggle to hear words in music but 'bitches, hoes' etc stand out and it's just not for me.

A few of the stranger ones but it's great.

Fades into the background so nothing special

Ooh hidden track... No thanks. Couldn't wait for it to finish.

This is pretty dire really. I don't like his voice at all and it's just annoying after a while.

Good.

Why would it not be great.

Strange

Weird funky music to work to, not too offensive in the background but I wouldn't sit down and set out to listen to it.

Reminds of Santana at times, it's okay, a couple of more iconic songs on there.

Glad when it finished. No substance

Funeral music

Enjoyed it, easy listening. Maybe I'm an old soul

What the everliving fuck is this. Reminds me of letting a 5 year old loose on a keyboard on DJ mode.

Cool-ish, got a bit sick of it towards the end. 20 mins too long

Enjoyed it.

Middling. It all sounds the same ish

Not a fan of this at all. American 80's punk is ick

Middling, 2.8

She's angry but I like it

I do like the eagles but this nearly sent me to sleep at the same time. 3.5

Awesome and anyone who disagrees is wrong.

Decent enough 3.5

Not too exciting and this album has 3+ discs I'm not listening to

Beige 2.5

Closer is gross

It's Marvin Gaye, it's fine, it's very him, but it's not something I would actively choose to listen to. Good music just not my style. 3.5

Short & Sweet, they're great.

Only just a 4. More like a 3.75. I do like cream but this has a maudlin middle and end that ruins it
