1001 Albums Summary

Pretentious Jazz noodling...

Meh

Really, really bad.

A slog. First non-finisher.

More endless Jazz noodling...

80’s metal. Not my thing.

Sounds like it should be from the 1930's. Liked it but was anachronistic.

Why...? This is tedious.

Like "Twin Peaks" in audio form...

Overrated. Dry your eyes is a great though.

Jazz.. Why did it have to be Jazz...

Not for me but still not as bad as Jazz.

Was never a fan of Disco at and I did roll my eyes when this came up but the whole point is to listen to things you would never pick. I'm still not a fan of Disco after listening to this but damn this album is filled with floor filling bangers. Good work Ladies, it's not my thing but I *have* to respect it.

Not a great one. One good track but a little too Jazzy experimental for me.

A required staple but no-one's favourite album.

Why was "Paint it Black" not on the UK version? Accidently played that one and got "Mother's little Helper" as the opening track. 2 Stars for the UK version and 3 for the US only cause "Paint it Black" is a banger. Rest of it's "meh"

A fine 90's Britpop album than for some will define the summer of '96 and live in memory forever. For me, happy if I never have to listen to it again.

Started badly, improved then got worse.

Britpop prototype

No. Folk is ok but this is way too folk.

repeat due to adding people in. Listened again, still a 5

Jazz... Sorry but jazz in any form is an instant 1 from me. Maybe that means I'm uncultured or something but it's just not working for me.

The start of Hair Metal? Passable album but I'll probably never listen to it again.

Can't separate the man from the music.

St Pepper's Lonely Prototype Band

Landmark album but early Hip Hop has aged poorly.

Weird album but a good listen. Went through every musical style and I felt like I was speed running the 1960's.

Why did I like this? It was weird but also cool?

Very mid. Very repetitive. Not sure why it's on this list. Very repetitive. There are far better examples from the 90's for this genre. Very repetitive.

Cocktail lounge background music. Not bad.

Would have been a 5 but I'm not cool enough for these people.

Extra point for Smoke on the Water, otherwise just a bit boring..

Like Bowie there are always one or two great songs in there among the rest. This is why Greatest Hits albums exist.

Started like Tears for Fears, went Beach Boys for a minute then got interesting..

has not aged well...

Massively overrated album

Tried to listen a few time but it just kind of fades into the background. Weird.

It's like an Adele Album from a parallel country universe.

No..
