1001 Albums Summary

Kind of a classic dad rock album (which I guess tells more about my age). Still has enough a sleazy sound to add some transgression; which the lyrics don't really help with. Still has three of the greatest classic rock songs of all time on it, so that helps to balance out. However, outside of SCoM, PC, and WttJ, its just too much of the same and the songs sort of blend together.

great pop album, strong vocals and theme, classic girl pop and an amazing debut.

Boppy folk music with great beats and solid variety. Not the absolute best from Beck, but still a very fun listening album.

Amazing rock album, some disco, some pop, some ballads, Layla is obviously great, but overall really solid album

Fun boppy album, gets stronger as it goes on, first real experience with Elliot Smith, pretty good.

Amazing classic grunge album, loved the flow throughout, very emotional. BHS all time slow banger.

Maybe because I'm not a depressed teen goth in the mid 80's on the west coast, but this one really didn't hit. Atonal, arythmic, and just anti-social. Did not enjoy the lyrics or the music really. Just kind of a wet bleeding out of an album. Which I guess was the intention behind it, but just not one for me.

Very chill prog rock originator, amazing team up of musicians. Interesting exploration of tones, but still a little weird. A solid beginning for a new horizon of music.

Okay, okay, okay. I know. It's Abbey Road, its the cover, its the famous one, lets get all that out of the way. Yes it has octobus and maxwell and all these others, but its got some clunkers in the back end, its a little disparate, and it's not the best of their albums. Great but not the best.

Okay, completely lives up to the hype, a seamless concept album, incredible flow from song to song, the way he combines genres and styles with the lyrics, and the connection to real life struggles. It really is what was going on at the time. Just a beautiful listen from beginning to end.

Honestly a more relaxed Black Sabbath, still with some bangers but not just ear to ear noise. Not the absolutely heights of metal, but some really good tracks. Changes absolutely slaps still.

One of the first true misses for me, really atonal, I know its experimental soundscape and Zappa, but its just not my vibe. Maybe if I had smoked a lot of 60s dirt weed and thought Marx was a cutting edge figure. The interruptions, the style, just not what I'm looking for in an album.

Smooth as butter, just an incredible listening experience. This album is silk sheets, light jazz, cocktails on ice, menthol cigarettes. Just bangers from beginning to end, doesn't outstay the welcome, does exactly what you want from an R&B album.

Solid great pop music album, almost disco like. It feels like we went down the wrong trouser of time when this didn't become the model for all pop music to come. Similar sounding but still great.

Amazing, classic american singer songwriter, just great songs one after another. Political Science is worth the price of admission alone. It's so fun seeing the strains of what would become some of the most famous movie songs of all time in the future.

This is the first one of these that I have listened to before, and honestly its still great. Not an amazing one, or even their best (which would be El Camino), but a strong solid rock album. Some great hits, some sleepers, their dual strengths come out well in it and has a great overall listening experience.
