1001 Albums Summary

Do you have the time to listen to me whine?

Loved the first 4 minutes, but dropped off for me

I have to be in a particular mood to enjoy this one cover to cover, and there's better options when I'm in that mood.

Solid

Getting gospel church pop and it brings back memories of choir boy days that I didn't particularly love. Some redeeming qualities though.

Didn't really stand out for me

A couple of songs like Waterloo Sunset did a lot of the lifting.

This was a 2 on the work commute. But on a long drive to the North it became a 3.

Actively disliked, don't think I even managed to finish it

Pleasantly surprised by this. Lots of Beatles vibes, Without You is a banger.

Decent. But I didn't get fully drawn in for quite a long album

No Guitar Hero tunes on thus one

Heart said 5 Reason said 4

They could have dropped a few songs in the middle of the album, but I really liked most of it.

Some legendary song intros in here got me real pumped. But it can become a bit of a drag

That dreamy guitar style is not my thing

Inoffensive background music for when you need 9 hours of music but can't change the track as there's a certain slug sat on your phone

I don't mind it, but it just made me want to listen to ANOHNI

Plenty to like, so much variety. Whilst it does drop off in parts, I've been listening to it repeatedly for the last 2 days, delaying me getting to the Friday album.

Pretty decent.

He's a spoon but the music is good

I wouldn't complain if my Dad put the CD in

Really enjoyed the experimental chunks of this one. But I almost wanted more and not sure I got it. Look forward to listening to some more of Tom Waits. Also felt I could hear an influence on Cosmo Sheldrake so ended up listening to that!

A lot of strumming making a racket I often lost what was going on in the song. They have a few great songs where I think the riffs are clearer.

Excited by the intro, got bored

Just not going to play this again at home tbh

Really loved the west coast funk running through this. Simultaneously hilarious and serious.

Solid probably lifted to a 4 by a handful of bangers and their live performances.

Maybe its just overplayed, I don't see myself replaying it much more so it doesn't get past a 3. Gz and Hustlas was the only exciting discovery for me.

Pleasantly surprised, not usually my thing

There's some bangers here, but plenty I'm not fussed about too

I love Becks Fifa anthems and I didn't realise how far back he went. But unfortunately found this album boring.

Theres only so much high pitched wah wah and studio effects I can take before I lose interest. I'd rather stop after just listening to the bangers.

Far from my favourite Beatles album, but there are a few small teasers of what’s still to come when they begin to get more experimental.

I'd probably enjoy it more if I was on whatever he's on. I was initially excited as I like Bellbottoms, shame.

My ears aren't offended but I find this boring

A mixed bag

Wasn't sure I'd like this one, but I've ended up enjoying and repeating parts of it. Just not all

Mehhh preferred the last one

Not bad, it just doesn't stand out from the crowd

Underwhelmed. Unstirred.

It's good but well overhyped.

I don't have any acid lying around

Just can't get into this kind of music

Would have done better with just 1 disc

The bar was set high with Everything in its Right Place, but the potential wasn't met.

Loved Birdland, but didn't feel much for the rest of it

Wouldn't listen to this one again

I groaned out loud when initially presented with the album after the below average week we had. But wow this had so many bangers!

Really enjoy it, good travel music for when you want to nod off after a few songs. But it I'm trying to stay awake and listen to it, then I think the second half of the album needs a little lift towards the end.

A reminder that even the legends can do some very average things.

Appreciate a few catchy tunes, but I'm just not going to play this album again

Velvet smooth guitars but another album I'm probably not coming back to

I might be being too generous here because I don't know why I'd ever pick this album up over others.

Initially wasnt fussed at all but its grown on my particularly the second half.

Very hit and miss with this album

Love Metallica's tracks with a slower buildup like One but I lose it a bit, particularly this album when they start furiously thrashing the guitars from the off.

1001 albums is beginning to feel like too many
