1001 Albums Summary

Didn’t know much about this album before listening but did learn that it was the debut of No Woman No Cry which was cool. Aside from that I thought the front half of the album was pretty bland and picked up in the second half starting around the title track of Natty Dread. Would give a 3.5 if starts could be halved

Scream rock is not usually my first choice of listening, but as far as it goes, I liked this album. There were hidden gems and it wasn’t totally head bangy the whole time. Favorite track: Flight of the Rat.

A very Bowie album. The lead track blows and is a 10 minute long mess of space sounds and noise which kills the vibe but the other songs are solid, but not blow away. Would give 3.5

Good background music for chill vibes but not meant to be listened to too intently imo. Nothing really jumped a ton. Favorite track: City With no Children

A fine album, just not my vibe. I think I have to rework my ranking scale…

Love it. The instrumentals and the feel from the songs is unmatched. The album is long but in a rock opera-y sorta way that really works. Favorite track: Liberation. Least favorite track: Free Form Guitar

What an incredible voice. Loved the simplicity and emotion behind every song. Also can we leave it out there just how kickass Monica Barbaro was? Wow. Definitely have a deeper appreciation after seeing the movie as well. Favorite tracks: Wildwood Flower, Rake and Rambling Boy

(Should be 3.5) Honestly a very good album. Van Halen simply isn’t my style of artist which is why he isn’t getting graded higher, otherwise he would. Was a little surprised by how many I knew. Favorite track: You Really Got Me
