1001 Albums Summary

not a big fan of Snoop as a leading artist - great feature and love his vibe in general but the material isn't as relatable or replayable in my eyes - great production overall though

nothin' better than a buncha dudes jammin'. I'm sure my dad loves Boston. Not the city. But the band.

the fact that half of this album is still played in modern media today shows how fitting it is for a myriad of emotions and generations of people. I'm also convinced Greta Van Fleet is the only band to ever come close to this sound again and if you don't agree you can fight me.

wait Phil Spector killed someone ?

I feel like this album just builds up to Our House - which is a bop - I'm honestly just enjoying this experiment of listening to a new album every day. It's reconnecting me with so many classics and new things I didn't know existed.

I thought I was ready for this but nothing could've prepared my ears for Constantinople. I will say it has since been stuck in my head. Not sure if that's good or if I should go see a doctor.

At first I was only into these for the instrumentals but now I'm dialed. You can feel the influence of previous bodies of work they're inspired by and you can tell these will (and probably are) being copied well into today. I've since listened to their other work and yeah it bangs.

Time After Time is still incredible I don't care how many times I've heard it. I've never actually heard any other Cyndi Lauper songs other than the radio hits so I was pleasantly surprised to know that this album is just good all around. I also really love 80s synth like people don't use that anymore it's so specific to the time period and it's a vibe.

not terrible but didn't do much for me

now I understand why everyone had a Ramones shirt growing up.
