1001 Albums Summary

Great grooves, great vibes, great propaganda even if subtle

Great energy, good guitars, ironically not satanic propaganda

Ashystar: Anxiety jazz backing the existential dread of a dying man. Bowie here isn't pushing a typical political agenda, but he looks to remind us, and perhaps himself, that the starman, and the many alter egos, is a man and men die. He knows his works have their own pull, but the light behind them will be gone, blackstar is a questionable metaphor here. Overall a hauntingly beautiful acceptance of death. A fun little conspiracy, Bowies corpse was on Elons Tesla sent to space in 2018 Low 4

melancholic nostalgia for the hippy dippy of the 60s. a gentler form of propaganda rolls through the album. all in all a peaceful call for better, you can sense some of the reasons why he's called the godfather of grunge, this moment is yet to happen but the vibe is building Mid 4

this years model well I listened 4 times today. no fucking clue what genre this album is, is it jazz is it punk what's with all these fucking organs? it's all just frenetic rambling, if the doors were an inspiration it's lacking mystique. the title comes full circle, as there's two versions. enjoyed the 78 recording more. took a while to hear the lyrics, cause I was just confused about instrument choices, and the weird backing vocals. unsure what Elvis deal is, is he incel, is he top g, is it satire, (Seems too personal for that) is he just cooked out. there's some decent musicianship here in isolation, but fuck me the vibes whack 2/5

Street Life Opening track is incredible The rest of the album is, well, jazz, but it's pretty inoffensive and unimaginative. It feels like jazz for the whites, and with the band being called the crusaders this does check out. Could see this band making a theme song for the sitcom "everyone hates Raynald" Unsure if Scott Robertson could break dance to it, any way up the canes. 3/5

Clandestino look what we've got here is a concept album of an aging revolutionary putting into song the history of Cuba, so the new generation understands what the CIA did. Operation Mongoose: The sabotage, the poisoned cigars, the chemical warfare. Operation Peter Pan: The kidnapping of 14,000 kids Operation Zapata: the Bay of Pigs. Operation Northwoods: The plans to blow up American ships and blame Havana. Operation AMLASH: The poison pens Operation 40: The specialized hit squads roaming the Caribbean he does it well this shit fucks. Phenomenal touch to close it with the wind, the wind of change

One time one time Two time two time

Look good album, poor timing, probably would've been a 4, in 2 months, but if we're getting back to back Coldplay, I'm gonna need Africans on mesas with pianos, iykyk

An album about the domestic blow back of poor foreign policy, songs from the find out generation of white America after the CIAs fucking around with communism and opec
