1001 Albums Summary

Based on my Last.fm statistics I've only listened to couple of Sam Cooke songs before this. Not the biggest fan of live albums but I did enjoy listening to this.

According to my Last.fm statistics this is the first time I'm listening to Adele but of course I've heard many of these songs before. Adele has a beautiful voice but the album gets pretty boring pretty fast. En jaksanut loppuun asti.

Not my cup of progressive rock. I do appreciate the musicianship but it was hard work listening to the whole thing.

Surprised to see the sixth best Radiohead album on this list.

I do like Disintegration, but I'm not often in the mood to listen to it. The Head on the Door, Boys Don't Cry and even Faith give a faster reward.

This might be the best hip hop album ever.

Because I'm in my forties, the slow but inevitable shift from indie pop to folk, country and all things acoustic is well on its way. Nevertheless this is the first artist that I've never even heard of (and it's only day seven). Didn't think this would happen so fast! Enjoyable country pop album.

Perfect

When I was a kid my father had Brothers in Arms cassette in car stereos so I have a soft spot for Dire Straits. I must admit that I've never listened to the debut album (except for Sultans of Swing). For me the highlights are Down to the Waterline and Wild West End but if I'll ever feel the need to listen to Dire Straits, I'll choose Brothers in Arms. Crazy to think that Mark Knopfler was in his late twenties when he wrote these songs. He probably has been a middle aged white dude since birth.

Some country, some Rolling Stones, a lot of beer and quite possibly other substances as well.

Musically this is right up my alley but for some reason I haven't heard this before. Glad I listened now!
