1001 Albums Summary

Listened on 1/4/26 The A-side was a classic listen through some of the most iconic Beatles songs out there. While some of them are definitely not playlist worthy in my book, they were all great to hear. However, the B-side, starting with “Sun King,” which is like an alternate version of the classic “Here Comes the Sun,” blew me completely away. All of these little snippets of songs beautifully interwoven together was truly something extraordinary to listen to. I have always known that the Beatles were popular and understand that through their hit singles, but I truthfully didn’t except this level of mastery. I was blown away. 4/5

This album is a tough one to write about. I love conceptual albums or albums that try to make stuff outside of the normalcy of music-making, so you think I’d love this album. And while I listened to every song, enjoyed listening to them and appreciated the awesome sound Radiohead produced, it was hard for me to sit down and listen. I constantly had to tell myself to finish the album because it wasn’t bringing me back. 3/5
