1001 Albums Summary

Really good 2 song jazz album. Funky. Liked the opening minutes and the closing minutes best.

Very different from what I was expecting from Beck. The live instrumentation gives the album a more traditional singer songwriter sound very fitting with the album’s depressed, reflective mood. Beck does sad boy very well, but not the best.

Fame and Young American have been Bowie favorites of mind for a long time. Unfortunately the rest of the album is very forgettable. This album feels important only in the context of Bowie’s career, not so much music as a whole. Won’t be revisiting.

Love this album. Instantly know what the vibe is and it stays consistent from start to finish. Classic pub rock music.

While not a favorite genre of mine, Bob Marley always manages to capture my ear. The hits are undeniable. Jamming is on of my favorite songs of all time.

Album starts strong but slowly fades. Mr. Blue Sky was the lone highlight of the back half for me. If you cut the run time in half by pick the best 8 songs it would probably be a high 3 star low 4. Favs- Turn to Stone, Mr Blue Sky Worst- Jungle, Standin’ in the Rain

Probably my most controversial opinion, I hate this album. I listened to it once in 2022 and refuse to ever listen again. Longest hour and 19 minutes of my life. Felt like it was 3 hours.

Fun, quirky album Favs- Walk on the wild side, Perfect day, Vicious Worst- New York telephone conversation

I love the first 5 songs. Wave of Mutilation is a personal favorite of mine. The shift starting with dead really leaves me wanting.
