1001 Albums Summary

The perfect album to send me to start this off. I really needed this today. Been feeling very low. Realizing my hope/belief that he was unhappy is just not true. That he doesn't regret leaving, doesn't miss me, and just went back to her as if it was nothing. Despite all that she did before and how little everyone around him likes her. That I wasn't good enough. I wish this wasn't as hard as it is. That I was stronger. But music makes it better. And Bowie is perfect. This is such a fucking great album.

Not bad, but not my favourite.

Not as bad as I expected. I just don't like his spoken word gravel voice. The music behind it wasn't too bad though. This was a one-time listen. Can't get through a second. Mostly tuned it out.

Good, but I expected it to be better? I had some higher expectations and the album wandered a bit more from the hits that I remember. Might listen again.

Pretty good. I recognized some songs. Not my fave ever, but I see the appeal.

Only got through a few songs. Not due to lack of enjoyment, but lack of time.

Very much exactly what I would expect from a Neil Young album and yet I feel like I've never actually heard any of these songs.

This reminds me of Collective Soul. Enjoyable, but not something I'd listen to all the time.

Enjoyable, but not all the time. Some songs didn't hit and others were great. I've listened to some very limited LCD Soundsystem over the years so this was interesting to explore it a bit more. Will try out some of their other stuff.

Better than expected. My lack of fondness for the early Beatles shouldn't be a reason to listen to their other stuff. This album is strong and had some stuff I hadn't really heard before. Will listen again.

This was nice background listening. Jazz I will actually listen to. Felt more productive with it.

Blech. Boring.

Classic nostalgia. Still holds up.

I love Bowie, although, this one isn't my favourite of his. But that's not suggesting that it's bad at all.

Slower than expected. Incredible voice.

Better than expected. Still in the genre of early 2000's basic indie rock, but much less bland than the Strokes and other crap.

Old country. For old men.

Just as good as I remember. I should listen to this one more.

A double double day! Have listened to both albums today already. And yes, Papa Was a Rolling Stone is still a banger.

Good stuff. Classic. Listened to it twice through.

What's with all the jazzy classics the past 2 days? I enjoyed yesterday's offering, but this did not compare. Some parts were OK, but mostly a bit too experimental for me.

Not bad, but I think I would have preferred a less modern Morrissey album. Please and thank you. The first song about how America isn't the main character is still very timely though. Probably moreso now than in 2004.

A wee bit more experimental than I expected, but still some good stuff on there.

Good stuff.

Interesting

Fucking maudlin over-fluted droning.

Enjoyable. I like New Wave and yet haven't listened to this one much before. At least, nothing beyond Pretty in Pink.

Classic.

Even more classic. I liked this one better than Harvest.

This was really enjoyable! I'm not typically a blues fan, but I really liked this. Very unexpected. :)

This was far too much.

Better than anticipated.

Sort of as expected. Not my fave, but glad I gave it a listen.

Knew more of the songs than I expected. A fairly pleasant Monday interlude.

Classic. Always. Ramble On is so good.

Far more country than expected. Not terrible.

Very jazzy

Weird. Like Renaissance Fair rock.

Kind of enjoyable. Better than expected.

Very chill.

Not bad

Huh

Not bad, will listen to more I think.

Why?

Kind of exactly as expected. Very southern rock.

Soooo fucking goooood!!!!

Reasonable.

Reasonable

I like this. Have heard a lot of it, but wouldn't have been able to name it as Al Green, but now I will.

Peppy and fun.

Most of it was fine, but the last few songs were pretty good.

exactly as expected

reasonable

This was weird.

Quite a talented lady

Fuck, why is he so damn boring?

I love this album.

Slow and sleepy. Also a wee bit creepy. Why did they seem to think love was so dark and life/death?

Funky, but not his funkiest...

Eclectic

Funky

Twangy, but a nice, calm musical interlude. Not bad on a Tuesday morning.

Pretty good.

Kind of soothing prog rock. Have never heard of them before.

Vocalist sounds too much like the guy from The Strokes for my liking, but the music was not bad. Very 70's jam-rock.

I never liked them before, but this wasn't as bad as expected. Some not bad stuff on here beyond their radio hits.

This is a classic. I owned the CD, probably still do. So good.

Delightful and soulful, but most of the songs are about cheesy old-time love

I guess this was fine?

Excellent. This has the sauce.

I forgot how great this album was. Memories of grade 11.

Ew.

Not what I'd normally listen to, but not bad as background music today.

Comforting and cozy.

Very pleasant and soothing. Might listen to more in the future.

Dark and moody. Delightful.

Wasn't familiar with the album name, but now I am. This is full of classics and songs I love.

Excellent

Some good stuff.
