1001 Albums Summary

Most songs made me angry. Has aged terribly. I get it was probably super progressive for boys to say they were crying back then but this whole album just read as one big immature whine to me. The lyrics (in terms on depth of content and the rhythm produced) is so basic and uninventive it sounds like it's been churned out by ai or a 7 year old. Woooo, I love you,  yes I do. It's true, don't make me tell you, I doooo Wooo woo woo Musically unimpressive, repetitive and boring. The fact I've never heard this album is testament to my mother's good taste in music. Clapping in 4/4 is for church and children and shouldn't feature on a studio produced album. The one time I thought "oo this is good", the album had finished and had started playing something else

First listen. Thought provoking. Musically very pleasant. I enjoyed the acoustic guitar a lot, especially the way the music directs the tone. I like how the soft picking felt quite impactful through subtle changes. I enjoyed the variety of themes and topics. Hazy shade of winter was a favourite. Enjoyed America. It made me think about cultural issues in America at the time and how they are relevant now.
