1001 Albums Summary

Definitely rock history, knew way more songs than I thought I would.

Under the Pressure was a killer opener

Prime early aughts rock- I actually enjoyed this way more than I anticipated.

Otis Redding is the standard and this record is chalk full of hits and covers that blow some of the originals out of the water.

Was a bit underwhelming and a tad monotonous.

Enjoyed more than I expected, I used to despise a certain song on this record - it’s like an earworm I can’t get it out of my head.

I wanted to like it more than I anticipated- no songs stuck out to me! Missed the mark.

Hit after hit, this album is a staple for Christmas.

David Byrne and co. built a masterclass of an album!

Classic late 80s rock, ebbs into the early 90s grunge.

Carole King and her standards! This album has the hits and the writing holds up all these years later.

This record is the 90s personified. I really enjoyed.

Epitome of 10s indie garage rock

Shocked how much I liked this! Early Brit Metal like this is great and heavily under appreciated.

Trippy comedic rock

Certain standouts really shine on this record. Bookends Theme brings such wrought emotion.

Sub genre of shoegaze rock that I did not know existed! Would revisit again

First 5/5 for me personally, grew up with this album throughout various stages of my life and it can hit every category you need. Heartbreak, love, loss, childhood. Adele is a powerhouse.

Introduction and title track made the album!

Classic 70s r&b that solidified Gaye as a legend.

Basket Case is top tier

Hole is the 90s. i <3 Courtney Love

Steely Dan has everything, some of the best songs ever and some of the worst. I respect the middle ground, something for everyone.

Sex Pistols’ debut is chalk full of the same sounding song.

Michael Jackson has multiple albums that are no skip, six star, bonafide classics. He truly was the King of Pop throughout his life. All the songs on this record could stand alone on their own accord but float into one another so seemlessly. I am jarred how amazing album is. This album takes you to right back to the eighties but holds up just as strong today.

One of the more stronger albums by Simon & Garfunkel.
