1001 Albums Summary

This album is oozing in personality. Cash perfectly captures the feelings of guilt and yearning from prison life, while having the sense of humor to perform it within the prison he sings about. This album listened as a whole makes you feel like you are in the audience with the incarcerated. Lyrics are clever, and a testament to Cash's legacy.

An album that instantly feels dated and also experimental. I personally hate when an artist smushes 10 songs together into one but sure whatever. The soundtrack to a movie I wouldn't watch.

The only other cover album I've listened to completely was Weezer Teal, and this is better than that. Why don't artists make cover albums anymore? Also Willie Nelson is still alive?!?!?!?!? What the heck I thought he's been dead for years.

I have personal beef with Steely Dan that's not anyone's fault. But seeing as this is my 3rd 70s album in 3 days, he's just not helping. Like it was fine, but I just wanted it to be over sometimes.

please 1001 albums. i want an album that was made since the vietnam war ended. Also I was a jazz kid from ages 12 to 18. and like its good jazz but it doesn't make me feel anything ya know? I lied. I played Flight of the Foo Birds for my last Jazz concert of middle school. It took me right back. I miss my saxophone. 3 stars

The quintessential 60s band and the quintessential 60s sound. It is dated but in a nostalgic way, not a cringe way. I liked it. 3 stars.

what the heck is this. one star jesus christ

cozy. not particularly offensive or memorable 3 stars i guess

gay cowboy music? 4 stars

it was whatever

finally an album i've heard of. Californication is fine. I'm not the biggest chilis fan but I appreciate what they did for 2000s rock. 3.5 stars.

im sick of UK alt music. its so mid

"so what do you want to hear?" A critique of 1001 Albums as a whole: I understood the significance of a johnny cash prison album from the other one I heard two weeks ago. I did not need to listen to two before I died.
