1001 Albums Summary

Great mix of musical styles; several radio favorites

I liked half of the album

One of REM’s finest

Pretty good overall; but don’t care for “Hello”

I like jazz, but this didn’t connect with me. Sorry, Miles.

“The Emperor’s New Clothes” is the best song on the album. “Nothing Compares” was killed by radio overplay. I can’t get through the last song, “I Do Not Want” … Her first album (The Lion and the Cobra) was a favorite; this, not so much.

I am so glad I got to hear this. Didn’t know about this artist. Good stuff. There are so many contemporary singers that have his style. Sad we lost him so young.

First time I’ve heard these songs; missed this when it came out, very raw and punky. Recognized some styles used in songs that followed.

This takes me back… I don’t like “Black Hole Sun,” but really enjoy “Spoonman.”

I’m disappointed that my local independent alternative radio station didn’t play this back in the day.
