1001 Albums Summary

This Album was sixth Album from the English Rock Band released in 1975. This is an Album of varied musical styles including prog rock, blues rock, funk, soft rock, Rock’n’Roll, Country Rock, Orchestral Rock and their Staple Hard Rock. However unlike yesterday when I felt lost and many tracks sounded like they were from different bands, although the genre of some of the tracks differed they seem to have the similar identity. The obvious stand out track is Kashmir with its epic sounding baseline building tension, this somehow reminded me of some of the Epic sounding hip hop track in and around the turn of the century. There were other tracks which particularly caught my ear, surprisingly “In my Time of Dying” which is blue rock, a genre I don’t particularly get on with but I loved this track. If there is a complaint it would be that it is too long, lasting over 80 minutes, having said that I enjoy the sound of this band so at least it was a pleasant 80 minutes. I will definitely listen to this Album Again

Just pure class

Very different from their earlier material, quite eclectic in places 👍

I don’t usually get on with Neil Young but I thought this was ok. I still don’t like his voice but that was offset by some very good guitars.

She has a fantastic voice and this is a pleasant R&B/Pop Album but this isn’t something I would regularly listen to.

Not for me this one

I have listened to Sam Cooke’s Albums before and although I enjoyed them I haven’t exactly bonded. This however included more hits and being a live album gave more insight to the talent that was Sam Cooke.

I have never been a fan of Johnny Cash and even though this is an album of covers I quite enjoyed it, he had a unique way to connect to the listener.

Fabulous alternative country 👌

Good album but not as good as their second Album
