1001 Albums Summary

Didn't have a high expectations, but it was very chilled. Felt like it eluded to wanting to be chill trance or island vibe but didn't take it there. Not offended but probably won't return for another listen or investigate Radiohead more.

Knew alot more billy Joel than I thought! A nice album, very time defining, storytelling aspect with imagery was cleveley done

Loved. Knew the big ones, let's get crazy and purple rain. I get the sexual liberation of Prince now. Always knew of him as an icon but this is hot. If I was 22 in the clubs when these tracks were on, this would have been anthemic. Will absolutely be returning to this album.

Had never heard of Yes, and not mad about it. Very instrumental and has those high builds into a soft landing. Not my kinda vibe but I imagine if you like king gizzard etc this is probably your kinda thing

No. I got two yes albums in a row and I tried, I really tried. Very instrumental heavy and I get it's a story telling album, but I couldn't really get into the story because I was just so relieved to hear lyrics. Again, if you like long instrumentals and clever storytelling through sound, this is for you. Just not for me

A live jazz album would never have been something I would have gravitated towards. I listened to it as background and enjoyed the experience, it was comforting and easy. Not mad about it but would only listen to again as a background dinner music kind of vibe

Classic. I really enjoyed this album, obviously knew the big tracks like walk this way and it's tricky. You can tell how it set up the genre and remains influential.

I enjoyed this album so much, and I'd never heard of the saints. Some of the lyrics haven't aged well, but it's not aggressive. Classic punk of that era with the perfect Australian vibe. Definitely revisit this one

I can absolutely appreciate this album and massive attack as setting the basework for what the world has in electronic music and how it's developed as a genre. I would probably return to this album but wouldn't be annoyed if it was on in the background

Complex structure of the album and I'm guessing that the style of playing means something to people who understand instruments. Wasn't grabbed by it, I found the style slightly annoying and trying to be more

Loved melodrama. I wasn't on the Lorde train when she first appeared on the scene, but actually went back to here around 2024 and appreciated solar power. I was happy melodrama came up, as it made me listen to it fully and I adore this album. Her writing is so adult that it reflects on the naivety of being young but how the feelings are powerful. This album made me nostalgic but also thankful for being in my 30s, a totally different understanding and appreciation of this album in 2026.

A ood classical jazz album. Good vibes in the back of a bar

I was excited for a Doors album, always a band you hear off but I haven't actually listed to. I enjoyed it and likes the lyrics. Alot of that keyboard vibe that by today's standards is reminiscent of carnivals, but very 70s aesthetic.

I enjoyed this, but not overly. It had the classic 70s long instrumental and soft vocal elements that I don't particularly enjoy. But it was a calming album and was pleasant

I liked this album, nick cave is again someone I've always know about but never really listed too. Very strong lyrics to create imagery

Screeching guitar instrumentals with the occasional piano smash

A nice listen, it has some good lyrics and imagery being created with them. Very 60s audio styles which is to be expected

Not on Spotify

I enjoyed this. Still had the excessive length with no lyrics that is standard for the era.

Loved this.

This is one of those albums that we all know but I hadn't listed, so I'm thrilled I finally did. You can see the influence it has had to modern time. A nice listen with thoughtful lyrics and clever references

I love a deep slow bass as much as anyone. But a bit too heavy on the vocals for my vibe

Another album I recognise the cover off but never listened to. Ideal city summer album and very obviously an influence

I really enjoyed this. Very chilled..not mad

Makes me feel like im in a dentist waiting room. Maybe I'm not smart enough, but Radiohead grates on me and this album is the personification of annoyance.

I forgot about this album and probably haven't listened since 2001. Very era defining at its time, holds up as a good rock album

I forgot all about N.E.R.D. This album is great, it's smooth, lyrical and cleverly written.
