1001 Albums Summary

feels like a good roadtrip/background album, with the exception of some songs that feel like pink floyd “dark side of the moon” quality. as in, you have to sit in the dark by yourself and listen to the song in its entirety, preferably on the beach. the pedal steel hit every time

there's only so much talking heads i can listen to. even when i'm in the mood for it, i can only handle 3 songs max. all that to say, not a bad album overall!

10/10, no notes, beautiful album, i miss him

a surprisingly short album! some of the songs on here are pretty nostalgic for me, i remember listening to this kind of music in my dads old car. the guitar in "top jimmy" makes it my favorite song on this album. i got kind of sick of it halfway through.

i really only like mainstream smiths songs, so i’m surprised how much i liked this album. however, girlfriend in a coma is… definitely a song. stop me if you think you’ve heard this one before was so catchy though. so much wonderful guitar in this album too, especially in the second half. even though it’s hard for me to take morrissey seriously, this is a good album.

this is not really up my alley i don't think

not huge into punk/industrial, but this was good. if i was a barista i'd put this album on to impress my cool coworker

i grew up on this album. i have endless love for it. except for lucy in the sky with diamonds, because my bus driver in elementary school played the same radio station every day, which happened to also play lucy in the sky with diamonds at the same time every day. i can't ever enjoy it.

sexy, catchy album! ive never heard of this band or this album, but they seem like the perfect scrappy punk 70s sound while not sounding annoying. another good album to play for my cool coworker.

MORE THAN A FEELIIIIINGGGG great album, not just more than a feeling

Maybe I'm just not an educated jazz listener, but a lot of the songs on this felt super repetitive. I want to be one of those people into the complex rhythms and such, but I think I'm just not. Take Five is such a classic, though, I can't help but like the rest of the album. Apparently, this album was meant to make jazz more complex, but it ended up making it more accessible. Kathy's Waltz was really enjoyable. I also like how every instrument gets a little moment, even if some of them go on for too long.

a good majority of this album is... interesting. not bad, just interesting. a lot of poop references. not sure why

This album was so interesting. It's pretty political too, which I appreciated since a lot of the lyrics still ring true today. It reminds me of a mix of crowded house, The Smiths, and Electric Light Orchestra. It's that 80s mix of extremely catchy and political. I think I need to read up on and listen to more of this band. Some of these songs sound really modern, like something I would hear today. Not sure if thats because of the return to 70s/80s music or what.
