1001 Albums Summary

Led Zeppelin by Led Zeppelin

This album is iconic. 5/5. No doubt.

Raw Power by The Stooges

This was a new one for me. I appreciate the music for the time Period. 4/5.

Tusk by Fleetwood Mac

This album was just okay to me - therefore 3/5. I love Fleetwood Mac, but this is one of their less popular albums.

Urban Hymns by The Verve

Bittersweet Symphony is a bop of course. Other than that, I didn’t connect with any of the songs.

So by Peter Gabriel

This is a good album , not great, not excellent. I enjoyed my listen though.

Tidal by Fiona Apple

No thank you. I doubt I will ever listen to this again.

Kenya by Machito

First of all, I love jazz. Any jazz record will likely review all highly. This one was really cool.

Suzanne Vega by Suzanne Vega

This is not for me. Kudos to those that like it.

The Cars by The Cars

First half is a 5. Second half is a 3. Overall, it is a 4.

Ill Communication by Beastie Boys

This is a time that I would give 3.5 if that was an option. Since it’s not, rounding down.

Trans Europe Express by Kraftwerk

This is just silly. Lol.

The Message by Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five

This is certainly funky. There are some good songs and some not good songs

A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector by Various Artists

Merry Christmas, everyone!

Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music by Ray Charles

I have always been a casual Ray Charles fan. This is a three star album.

White Blood Cells by The White Stripes

3 stars. That’s all I have to say.

Halcyon Digest by Deerhunter

It’s a vibe. On a day I am with the vibe, I would dig it. Today, it’s aight.

1984 by Van Halen

This album has some great songs that I really liked when I was 18-20.

Me Against The World by 2Pac

Too much profanity.

Lost Souls by Doves

Nice mixture of sounds for a chill evening. 2 stars.

Youth And Young Manhood by Kings of Leon

This was a nice listen as I drove home from a camping trip. Nothing too memorable though.

Strangeways, Here We Come by The Smiths

The Smiths are just cool. I will never give less than 4 stars on a The Smiths album.

Permission to Land by The Darkness

Three stars. It’s a fun album.

Moon Safari by Air

Just a pleasantly chill album. It puts you in the right headspace.

Smash by The Offspring

I would not have guessed this was The Offspring’s third album. I have always been indifferent about The Offspring. The second half of the album is much stronger than the first half.

Oxygène by Jean-Michel Jarre

I can’t take it.

Done By The Forces Of Nature by Jungle Brothers

I listened to the album but I’m done by the forces of nature.

Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea by PJ Harvey

Sounds like the 90s.

The Fat Of The Land by The Prodigy

This is lame.
