1001 Albums Summary

grace knocks those boys outta the water. maybe too sleepy to give this one a proper evaluation. appreciated the production

In theory I should love this. But Mr. Yusuf's voice doesn't do much for me. Espescially with that reverb effect. 🤮 these songs are floating right past me. a stranger on an innertube humming to themselves. do like "into white" and "father and son" wish there was more vocal harmonies

When I first saw the album I thought I was in for a cheesy easy listening. Very happy to be wrong. It is easy listening but only because the instrumentation, the voices, and lyrics all feel so seamless and whole. Love that it straddles the line of being overtly political without feeling preachy.

Lush production and clever lyricism. Kanye at his best. Drenched in misogyny. The most potent part of the album to me was the final Last Poets sample. A group that's still so insanely relevant to what this country is experiencing.

this is doing nothin for me ogre battle p fun 2nd half definitely better but they're still kinda sliding off me. it was fine

I dunno why but I strongly suspect neil young fans are total dorkwads. I liked it

I love Jonathan Richman and his lovers

Fun catchy riffs How do people talk about music

preferred natty dread

beatles r gud whoulda thunk it

based on the title and subject matter was expecting this to be odder and more aggressive. it's kind of stumbling around in the first few tracks occasionally bumping into something with energy but never grasping it. not hating it but it doesn't have the j u i c e

probably wont come back to this much. maybe discovering i'm not a huge punk fan. that being said, it's crunchy sludgy and fun! pretty astounding that it came out in '77.

i like frank's voice but don't find it all that emotionally affecting the accompanying band tho, is tops daddy-o
