1001 Albums Summary

Not really my thing too slow and a bit boring. Like a few of the hits, some I didn’t know he sang 2/5

Tracks are all very samey, reminded me of the music the band played in back to the future 1. Lol had a similar sound Not for me

Couple of decent tracks like Supernaut & Cornocopia but overall not really my thing 2/5

Wasn’t really my thing. I didn’t connect with it, and it didn’t hold my interest. I’d give it 2 out of 5 stars. It’s your aunties favourite album. But also the one she listens two when your uncle has left her

Decent album with some good guitar solos and good tracks

Hated it with the fire of a thousand suns. I am only giving this album one star, because I can’t give it anything lower. This album stole 11.80% of a day of my life. I’ve never heard of it or that band before and never want to ever again. Ever

Great album. Not listened to it I full in ages. Was a walk down memory lane

I actually quite liked Tres Hombres. Tracks like ‘La Grange’ really stand out. I wouldn’t say it’s perfect, but I did enjoy it, so I’d give it a 3 out of 5. Very bluesy and rocky

Like it more than I thought I would. Some good tracks but over all a bit too pop musicy for me. Needs to be 2/5 as I probably wouldn’t choose to listen to it again but if it was in I wouldn’t complain about it 2/5 stars pushing for 3

Just wasn’t for me at all. Far too long, repetitive and full of drawn out spacey jams that never really seemed to go anywhere. This felt more focused on atmosphere and weird noises than actual memorable music. Ended up being a complete slog to get through. 1/5 starts for me

Very easy to see that Duran, Duran stole a lot of ideas from these guys! If you didn’t know any better you’d think it was them. Not a bad album

Not a Bowie fan at all. Hoped this would be good but Nah. Very boring. A good few of the tracks have no lyrics, just trippy instrumentals. Bowie is massively overhyped in my opinion. Maybe it’s an age thing. He had 5 no 1’s. Released 26 albums, 12 of which without a top ten hit. This one was 1/5 for me

I’m 16 albums in to this now and yet another album I have to ask the question, why do I need to listen to this before I die? Can think of some artists poorer albums that are better than most on here I’ve reviewed so far. Not a dig at the site, I know it’s created from the book. It’s just filler music, it has no substance or weight, the lyrics are garbage and make little sense It’s instantly forgettable

Sounded like a knock off Michael Jackson album at times. Didn’t hate it but didn’t like it. 2/5

One of the lyrics to a track on this album was ‘that’s what you call a waste of time’. That’s exactly what this album was, apart from Lovefool

It was mostly just noise and a real struggle to listen to. You couldn’t hear the lyrics. Not sure that is intentional? It was a struggle

One of those albums where the highs are ridiculous, but it definitely drags in places. Some of the riffs are unreal and it’s got a dirty, heavy sound. Some songs are far too long. 3/5

Angry girl music. Not for me

The first track is 16 mins long which boils my blood. Over all it’s ok. Some good guitar work, could be better

Good album, CCWR was on all the time when I was growing up, a 3/5 for me

I was so bored

Didn’t hate it, wouldn’t pick it. VERY dated. Just not my thing. 2/5

Very funk / jazz. Not for me at all Some of the tracks went on for ever and never really went anywhere. Feels like he was just singing over the music rather than in time with it, felt like more of an improv jam than a planned album. 2/5

Cracker of an album. Forgot how good it was, hadn’t listened to it in years. Every track is a belter

Instantly recognised Damon Albans voice and instantly slipped into a coma Instantly forgettable

Like a lot of Rod Stewart’s more popular stuff, but this was particularly meh

Absolute shite. Why is this an album I MUST LISTEN TO BEFORE I DIE? Why why why why?????

Only listened to 3 tracks which was plenty. It’s a firm no from me.

Ok album but that’s all. A hit straight down the middle. 3/5

Decent 80’ album with some of their big hits on there, most of the tracks I hadn’t heard of but was probably in keeping with what I would expect to be ‘their style. Solid 3/5

Maybe 25 years ago, but not today

Pointless Hate albums with very long tracks Hate albums with hardly any lyrics Hated it

An ok album propped up by some of the very big hits

Pointless music. I don’t like Simon & Garfunkel so it’s hardly surprising that I don’t like Simon without Garfunkel.

An album of two halves. The first half was very punk with a lot of energy the second half at descended into a chaotic rabble Reading the reviews it says that this is not the best album which is encouraging 3/5

Far too dated for me

Find a lot of Dylan’s songs very samey. It was ok

Yet another album that is absolutely awful. And another album I’m wondering WHY is this in this list? Why must I listen to this before I die 💀☠️

One of the most important albums of the 90’s. One of the most important albums of my life. Stand the test of time to this day

Sounds like a less scatty Phoebe buffey from friends. But not as good and not as fun.

What is this pish?

Not for me

Not for me

A bit too psychedelic and the bluey for me

Not my thing at all

It was meh

Not into soul music at all

Ain’t no way I’m listening to 3.5 hours of instrumentals another shit album on this list

Was like background music that you would find in a restaurant in a foreign country who just wanted to play something in English. Only knew one of their songs, and I didn’t know they sang it. Background music

Actually wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be, better than most of the shit I’ve had to listen to on here

Wasn’t very good, I was bored

Just don’t get Jimi Hendrix at all. Was boring

Another psychedelic album great. Not

Not in English, not interested

Great album. Shame about the guy singing it

It certainly was a chore

Would have been a three if the tracks weren’t so damn long

Yawn

Not for me
