1001 Albums Summary

It's bad, it's bad, it's really really bad. MJ's tough guy songs are just weird. I do dig Smooth Criminal though.

Pretty diverse set of songs with big changes in the sound between tracks. Fogerty is a great guitarist and his growly voice is distinctive. Didn't know he was from California and the whole Bayou persona is a character.

Another odd pick for the list. Why not Moving Pictures?

Can hear the progression to Loveless but not a great album. Vocals are pretty weak all around. The standout is the bass.

Solid album. Too bad she went off the rails.

One of my all time favourite albums.

Beautiful voice. Not my thing though.

Iconic.

I would have preferred just the instrumental.

I think you had to be there.. and high.

Really liked this one. Way more mellow than I expected based on the name. Must have been a huge influence on Deerhunter and a ton of other bands I listen to.

David Lee Roth even copied his scatting. Interesting character and I think the showmanship probably translated better to live than recording.

Good album. Very Bowie.

Very interesting. Couple of great tracks. Wasn't expecting to hear Thom Yorke.

Pretty good. A couple of solid songs. Fun explorations.

Can hear closer ties to their influences than later albums.

Not a fan of Lou Reed. I get how influential he is and Walk on the Wild Side is iconic. Can't forgive him for taking all of the royalties for Can I Kick it.

Boring and derivative.

That jug work is wild.

Not going to lie. The sound is dated. Very late 80s.

Really great!

Four Women is pretty epic. It was the inspiration for Peaches taking that stage name.

I'm hearing a heavy influence on Modest Mouse.

Pretty good.
