1001 Albums Summary

Extremely energetic, the riffs are catchy and the vocals are very classic for the time. I thought the songwriting was kind of lacking and a lot of the tempos repeat. Overall very good!

First guitar riff makes me wanna speed. I feel like the singer is in a skit where he was a little British boy reading a scroll from the king to peasants and then spontaneously broke into a metal rock band. United kind of sucked. Red, White, Blue snore Even if you don't like this music, I feel like the influence of this album has to be respected. The one problem I have had with metal rock my entire life is the vocals, and it doesn't really stop here. The musician ship is amazing and a lot of the playing style is what later influenced greats like Metallica. Overall a very important and great album.

This is an average Americana album that happens to have a generation defining song headlining.

Really really good. Never heard a blend of jazz rap and house music like that. Sad it’s not on Spotify I had to listen on YouTube. It dragged a little towards the end but for this to be released in 1988, insane

Peak music. The tempo changes and riffs are amazing. The use of woodwinds really add some atmosphere. Pioneers of Prog rock, and this isn’t even their best album.

Honestly I've never loved Neil Young's voice. Harvest Moon is very good but this album didn't have the same bite that his best album does. If I want to listen to this type of music there are much better options to me.

Really fun and interesting! You can hear the influence this had on the Talking Heads and B-52s, the voices are really funky and I like a lot of the musicianship. It’s a little raw and the producing isn’t the greatest but overall great!

I really liked his voice actually and I thought it was smooth. Kind of bland and not anything that unique. For an artist that small I’d say a great album

Sinatra might be the greatest male vocalist of all time. Absolute classic, the songs are massive, and his voice transports you into a new world. They don’t make them like this anymore

Very groovy, and typical post-punky 1980s. I enjoyed the versatile percussion and synths, but the main turnoff for me was the voice. It felt a little like poor mans Talking Heads. But, for something this niche very good!

You could call this modern classic, some elite elite songs, also some weak parts at the end. Wouldn’t give it 5 stars partially cause it’s not really my taste, but I wouldn’t balked at the idea

I love Stevie Wonder, some of my favorite songs of his are off this album. Higher Ground and Golden Lady are 10/10s, but I wouldn’t say this is up to Songs in the Key of Life. That is a straight up 10/10, this I would say is still like 9/10, so I’m rounding up to 5 stars

It’s ight

The OG

Arguably the greatest album of the greatest rock band ever
