1001 Albums Summary

Decent jazz album, good vibes, but definitely big band/swing feeling. Not as big a fan of a full instrumental album but did enjoy Darn that Dream. Unfortunately found myself ready to move on about 2/3rds of the way through.

While the first song has not aged well. I really enjoyed the rest of the album with its tour through Abba's musical capabilities. The 1st third is anchored by Dancing Queen and Dum Dum Diddle. The middle third is where this album shines as Abba flexes and shows off their musical prowess. The end of the album keeps up the energy and brings us home with Fernando. All in all a very good album.

The Beastie Boys ran so Eminem could fly and NYSNC and the Backstreet Boys could walk. They hit their sound on their first album and awesome songs like Fight for Your Right, No Sleep Til Brooklyn, and Brass Monkey bring a good, but ultimately not to my tastes genre up into the 3 range.

Its Metallica at their thrash metal best. One is an amazing song, and the instrumentals in To Live is To Die are an absolute headbanger. That said, for all the techniques used by the band, the album becomes monotonous the further you get in bringing what started as a solid 4 down to a 3.

Decent, a couple of fun songs, but mostly just great background music

Musically top tier, lyrically pretty good as long as you are ok with nsfw language. Overall this album wasn't for me, but i'd play an instrumental on repeat.

Its Michael at his absolute best. When the worst songs are Baby be Mine and The Girl is Mine and those still are awesome, then you truly have something special. He definitely met his goal of making 'every song a killer'

Fun background music, and I enjoyed hearing what came next. However i didn't feel like the album was pulling me inexorably through it. Instead it and I were just there together. Not great, not bad, just solid. And as soon as i wrote the above M1 A1 comes out of nowhere and rocks your socks.

Very old school Punk. I can hear where other bands drew influence from this. The cacophony is fun, but the album feels discordant. Probably a low 3 for me, but fun to listen none-the-less.

This is a much better take on emo than MCR. Moody in all the right ways. The spoken poetry instead of sung lyrics, this album scratched an itch that I didn't realize I had.

Chill is a great way to describe this music, this is a great find and i greatly enjoyed it.

The worst thing I think i can say about an album is it isn't memorable. Born to Be With You by Dion isn't memorable. I struggled to get through the album, not because any song was technically bad, but because it just didn't engage me on any level.

Beautiful album, chill vibes and great vocals. Definitely worth a listen. 3 trending towards 4.

Really enjoyed it. Music was upbeat and fun. Solid 3.

Rock music, pop lyrics. Started off very fun, and then took a turn towards something different towards the back half. It wasn't bad, but didn't feel like it belonged with the first half of the album.

Tina's voice is iconic, and massively shines in this album. While the lyrics of the music talk to a broken heart, the power and soul captured here is amazing. It's not a perfect album, but it is still amazing.

Fine background music

Amazing album, i either knew or was immediately singing along with the first 6 or 7 songs, but I felt the back of the album was a touch weaker, and would have been improved by swapping Paint It Black back in, like they did on the US release.

Initial thoughts, "Oh No, this is a 2hr album". Up to Brain Dead so far and this isn't bad. Nothing great yet though. Ok, i finished the album, and man that got tedious. 6 Wrote for Luck and 5 hallelujahs later and I was just done. It might just be on Spotify, but that repetition decreased a 3 to a 1 for me.

Great soft rock album, excellent album to just enjoy a relatively quiet moment

Very eclectic and had a hard time keeping my attention despite not having anything 'bad' about it

Just top notch, and the autoplay changed albums and I didn't even notice at first. Top notch classic metal.
