1001 Albums Summary

The Wall by Pink Floyd

Garbage by Garbage

Aftermath by The Rolling Stones

EH, some good stuff but I don't see it as ground-breaking like some seem to feel.

Amnesiac by Radiohead

Highway 61 Revisited by Bob Dylan

This is an absolute classic top to bottom.

Sticky Fingers by The Rolling Stones

Definitely some great songs on here and I know many people think this great, but to me some of the stuff is filler. Or maybe better to say I can take it or leave it.

Ritual De Lo Habitual by Jane's Addiction

Revolver by Beatles

Some say it's the best album ever.

Marcus Garvey by Burning Spear

They're very good at what they do and it's very enjoyable.

In The Court Of The Crimson King by King Crimson

Rum Sodomy & The Lash by The Pogues

Wonderful stuff, they’re in a genre of their own un many ways.

Juju by Siouxsie And The Banshees

Not for me.

Fromohio by fIREHOSE

Born To Run by Bruce Springsteen

Do I even need to rate this one? I'm not a big Springsteen person, but this is lightning in a bottle.

Duck Rock by Malcolm McLaren

I Never Loved a Man the Way I Love You by Aretha Franklin

Superlative.

Hysteria by Def Leppard

This may have been the first time I listened to this all the way through. Pretty ok to good. Not Quite my cup of tea though.

Let It Bleed by The Rolling Stones

Dear Science by TV On The Radio

It's got a lot of elements I love (horns, funk with the rock groove) but just doesn't come together into something I love.

Ladies And Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space by Spiritualized

Fulfillingness' First Finale by Stevie Wonder

Stevie was at the top and this album is one of the tops, so tops of the tops.

The Dreaming by Kate Bush

Desperate Youth, Blood Thirsty Babes by TV On The Radio

Steve McQueen by Prefab Sprout

Good, I can see why at the time it would have been a classic, cult or otherwise. Like other Prefab Sprout I've listened to I found I liked it but didn't need to repeat.

Red Headed Stranger by Willie Nelson

Willie

Sincere by Mj Cole

Just not my thing, starts to sound all the same.

Headquarters by The Monkees

A decent proto-country rock album of its time.

Talking Book by Stevie Wonder

The Seldom Seen Kid by Elbow

I liked their early stuff and then mostly fell out of touch before this one. Nice.

The Chronic by Dr. Dre

Achtung Baby by U2

A classic from my high school days.

Cosmo's Factory by Creedence Clearwater Revival

The White Room by The KLF

I enjoyed that more than I expected to.

What's Going On by Marvin Gaye

The World is a Ghetto by War

Bright Flight by Silver Jews

Mopey.

Oedipus Schmoedipus by Barry Adamson

Youth And Young Manhood by Kings of Leon

Darkness on the Edge of Town by Bruce Springsteen

Sister by Sonic Youth

Just not my thing.

Hejira by Joni Mitchell

Canada's greatest songwriter.

The Joshua Tree by U2

Low by David Bowie

I'm not sure I had ever heard this all of the way through. Giving it 4 instead of 5 since if it wasn't Bowie I'm not sure I would have been quite as enthusiastic but I can seem myself returning to this one.

Ys by Joanna Newsom

Ace of Spades by Motörhead

Not for me but I can see the appeal for some.

Songs In The Key Of Life by Stevie Wonder

Another Music In A Different Kitchen by Buzzcocks

Whatever by Aimee Mann

Peak Jon Brion and very enjoyable.

Lost In The Dream by The War On Drugs

I like all of the parts but it just doesn't add up to as much as I want. Really between a 3 and a 4 for me.

L'Eau Rouge by The Young Gods

Just not for me. Didn't listen all the way through.

This Is Fats Domino by Fats Domino

Smash by The Offspring

This Is Hardcore by Pulp

Francis Albert Sinatra & Antonio Carlos Jobim by Frank Sinatra

(Pronounced 'Leh-'Nérd 'Skin-'Nérd) by Lynyrd Skynyrd

White Light / White Heat by The Velvet Underground

If You Can Believe Your Eyes & Ears by The Mamas & The Papas

Somewhat a nostalgic rating in that I heard this in both of my parents' households growing up, it also captures a certain sense of California that I felt growing up in the state.

Vulgar Display Of Power by Pantera

Thriller by Michael Jackson

5 for musicality, 1 for personality.
