1001 Albums Summary

I enjoyed Blonde on Blonde (1966) (BOB?). Dylan’s voice is not what makes it special, but his ability to tell a story through his words is something infrequent in contemporary works — he is a lyricist in a tier of his own. The song I most enjoyed was “Visions of Johanna”, and I look forward to exploring more of his other albums.

Good debut album (1996), especially with impressive given that Apple was only 18 when it was released. Favorite song was Shadowboxer. Of all of her albums, not my favorite, but I enjoyed listening to it nonetheless.

Just okay. It has a couple good songs, but overall… eh. Impressive given its success with album sales produced under an independent label. Favorite song was Self Esteem.

Pretty good. Grew on me as I listened. Favorite song was “Out of Time”. 1966…BOB.

I really enjoyed this album. My favorite track is Ventilator Blues, followed by Sweet Virginia. The musical maturity and evolution, compared to their previous album Aftermath (1966), was cool to see in Exile on Main Street (1972).

Awesome. Feels kind of like a blend of Cigarettes After Sex, Lorde, and Arctic Monkeys. No-skip album.

Pretty good. The hoarse voice somehow works. Makes me want to listen to more of Rod Stewart’s tracks. Favorite song: “My Way of Giving”.

Oh, Elliot. LOML. Like a warm bowl of soup. A warm day in January. Yes.
