1001 Albums Summary

I knew more than I expected to. May This Be Love was my favourite.

I had no idea what to expect and this blew me away. Excellent music for my morning commute.

Not quite right for my commute, need to be enjoyed while unwinding with a scotch.

I liked this way more than I expected. I think I’m a Dylan unplugged fan. Masters of War is a little too timely.

I didn’t love this. I thought the covers didn’t stand up to the originals and Respect definitely feels different coming from a man.

One oh your albums where guy can hear the skill and understand the importance but it’s not for you. As a middle aged white woman I’m not the intended audience and that’s okay, I did like The Chronic Outro, The Day the Niggaz Took Over, and Lyrical Gangbang.

A great album to wake up on your commute to. Weather Storm is a perfect “staring out the window of a train song”

This was great. I’d give it 9 out of 10 if I could.

Pretty good but samey. I had no idea that Love Hurts was a cover.

I know it’s a strone cold classic but it just didn’t speak to me.

I really like this, especially Atlantic City.

I loved it. It stood up to the hype.

Great, as expected but didn’t grab me all the way. Idiotique and The National Anthem were great.

Still great.

One of my favourites so far.

I loved the first album butt the second one not as much

A great album. I can see why they’re your favourite band’s favourite band.

It didn’t click with me.

Fun and outside my usual musical type.

Still great

Much more listenable then I expected

Really great

Not really for me

Nice background music.

Great album, especially the title track.

Did not like.

A classic for a reason.

I can see the roots of a lot of things I love but I don’t love this,

A lot funkier/jazzier than I expected. Really great

Excellent

Good but didn’t stay with me

The singles were great but the rest were pretty similar

Very cool to listen to two albums by the same artist almost 50 years apart. This one was good but I liked You Want It Darker a little more.

Better than expected but still so long.

Great. Some of my favourite White Stripes songs.

I thought it was going to be impossible to keep the energy of More Than a Feeling to for the entire album but they did it.

Wonderful

Boring

Really terrible. I thought nostalgia of my youth would kick in but no such luck.

I’m not a jam band fan and this was too close to that.

A lovely way to commute on a beautiful morning

A lot of fun. I need to listen again to see if there’s a story line

Comfortably Numb is a great song

Good but too long

Great but didn’t capture me.

Immediately forgettable

Holy fuck. Amazing

Smooth and charming

Meh

Great. I am definitely the target audience 😆

It really grew on me

An unrelenting wall of noise. I liked it.

Good but didn’t grab me.

Never is a Promise is a perfect song.

Good, but I’ve already forgotten it.

Some really beautiful songs

Wonderful, especially the first half

Good but not my favourite.

So smooth

Kind of boring though Piece of My Heart is always amazing.

Defined my expectations

Deserved to be listened to lying down and appreciating the nuance. I’ll definitely revisit it.

Spectacular

Good to hear what all the hype is about

Great. I’d like to take more time to listen to the lyrics

Great. So much variety.

Now I understand

The Look of Love wasn’t enough to save this album

I was surprised by how many songs I knew. I especially liked Jump Into the Fire.

Unlike anything I’ve listened to before

A couple of nice songs but boring

Strung all the way through but it’s hard to beat Enjoy the Silence.

Good but a little boring. I’m pretty sure I wasn’t listening in the right environment.

Stands up

I love the scale and ambition of the first song but found the rest kind of underwhelming.

Wonderful

Not as scary as that video led me to believe.

The last couple a songs were great but overall it just felt kind of boring.

I can see why he’s a legend

I understand the importance but it was WAY to abrasive for me.

So good

Been Caught Stealing is so overplayed I thought I wouldn’t like this. Better than expected.

So much tuba! I loved it.

As good as I knew would be.

A few really good songs but nothing earth shattering.

This album and I did not gel. It sounded like it could have been later Beatles.

What a voice!

Lovely orchestration. I should have listened to it lying on my bed with my eyes closed

Did not disappoint

Decent musically but his voice has been over played to the point I can’t stand it.

War Pigs and Paranoid. What a way to start an album.

Simply beautiful. I’ve heard this one before and I was so glad to revisit it.

Wonderfully unique. I especially like Private Idaho.

I love a live album.
