1001 Albums Summary

Very fun southern and blues rock, some songs were very reminiscent of classic blues songs

Loved the instrumentation, great messages. Mixed feelings of the vocals, sometimes great sometimes not my cup of tea.

Love the vibes, more contemplative and proggy in some parts than more recent Coldplay albums

Wasn't sure I'd like it because I've never connected with Bob Dylan's vocal style, but I really enjoyed it! Loved the blues elements, the instrumentation, and storytelling. Some of the songs do run long.

Amazing music

Some classics, some boring songs

Love his voice, the production is very fun and varied. Classic.

Johnny rotten is super annoying. I still bounce off of this album, though I appreciate its influence on tons of music I love.

Incredible instrumentation, has a depth and complexity to it that is often under-imitated by influencees. Definitely a classic.

Absolutely love this album. Guitars are soaring, vocals are incredible. Every song is great.

I liked it much more than I expected, my perception of Fiona Apple is more poetic/arty than music I usually like. This album was really musically compelling and jazzy, though a little meandering sometimes. I wouldn't be surprised if this keeps growing on me.

Feels very childish, in subject matter and when Eminem sings hooks. Though horrorcore in general is definitely not for me. Stan and Eminem's sometimes-used rap skill pull it up a bit.

Love the blues songs and like the folk songs. Meandering overlong sometimes, but felt more approachable and catchy than Highway 61 Revisited.

I really liked the orchestral elements and complex/experimentally riffs. A fair amount of the songs are a very nice mix of experimentality and catchiness, I was bobbing my head to several of them. Sometimes the lyrics were overly clear-cut/cheesy (Your Dictionary especially).

Definitely lots of Beatles influence, enjoyed the psychedelic elements (some of the instrumentals were quite fun), but for lots of songs both the instruments and vocals felt a bit dull, nothing stood out/took center stage

So much musical skill on display! And really fun to listen to.

I didn't expect to like this album. But here we are. His delivery, the poetic nature of the lyrics, and his penchant for mystical/religious symbolism all added a mythical element to the music for me. The instrumentation was usually simple and didn't evolve much throughout the songs, but the cadence and statements/nature of the lyrics still made me often feel like there was rising tension to successive verses. Also I'm a sucker for gravelly voices.

Very enjoyable listen, I liked the guitar work a lot. It felt somewhat familiar to music I know well but with more psychedelic elements.

Really enjoyed the blues elements and the guitar work!
