1001 Albums Summary

WHOS NEXT by THE WHO ( 1971 ) The album starts off weak with songs like" baba o'riley" only featuring 1 prominent guitar riff and songs like "love ain't for keeping" and "getting in time" lacking depth . "My wife" let's you get started in lyrical intrest with good storytelling. The album for me picks up momentum from "The Song is ove" , the songs that follow "Getting in Tune", "Going Mobile" and "Behind Blue Eyes" makes it difficult for you to choose a favourite, "Won't get fooled again" brings the best climax to the album concluding it on the best note possible . The higjoght for me were " Behind Blue Eyes " and " "Won't Get Fooled Again" . My favourite out of all songs was "Bargain" absolutely beautiful.

THE SPECIALS by THE SPECIALS (1979) If the album could be summarised into one it would be a fight between the style of the specials and that of elvis Presley's catalogue of early 70's. For me the album poses as a letdown with monotonous beats and peculiar style of reverberation. Although one things that is done extremely well is storytelling throught in songs like LITTLE BITCH , A MESSAGE TO YOU RUDY , and especially STUPID MARRIAGE. The album doens't surprise me when it ends and doesn't deliever a favourite with the only standout songs being YOU'RE WONDERING NOW , LITTLE BITCH , MONKEY MAN , NEW ERA and STUPID MARRIAGE
