1001 Albums Summary

Stankonia by OutKast

Crime Of The Century by Supertramp

Very much in my comfort zone. Loved this.

Grace by Jeff Buckley

This one is a blast from the past. It's quite overwrought, and I find that challenging sometimes. But there's no denying the talent here. Huge songs, huge sound, huge emotions.

One Nation Under A Groove by Funkadelic

Dusty In Memphis by Dusty Springfield

No doubting the vocal talent here, but all a bit schmaltzy for me. Windmills in Your Mind and Son of a Preacher Man are the standout tracks. The rest, pleasant but forgettable.

Moving Pictures by Rush

A bit "dad rock" for me

The World is a Ghetto by War

This one captured my interest. I will definitely come back to it, as it sounds like the kind of album that will reveal itself over many listens.

Chemtrails Over The Country Club by Lana Del Rey

Psychocandy by The Jesus And Mary Chain

Pretzel Logic by Steely Dan

Lots of interesting rhythms and harmonies. So why does it all feel so...vanilla

Kid A by Radiohead

You Want It Darker by Leonard Cohen

Otis Blue/Otis Redding Sings Soul by Otis Redding

KE*A*H** (Psalm 69) by Ministry

Band On The Run by Paul McCartney and Wings

I never could get on board with McCartney's particular brand of twee.

Face to Face by The Kinks

Head Hunters by Herbie Hancock

Five Leaves Left by Nick Drake

Time Out Of Mind by Bob Dylan

I thought I was over Bob Dylan, but this caught my attention. It's not love at first listen, but I do hope to revisit this album.

...And Justice For All by Metallica

Coles Corner by Richard Hawley

Sheer Heart Attack by Queen

Sulk by The Associates

Not an easy listen, but there's a lot of interesting stuff going on here. Sad to see so many reviewers writing this album off because it requires the listener to put in a bit of effort.
