1001 Albums Summary

I like how it looks like the dog is pooping in the album art. Really nice easy listening.

Pretty crass but really funny. Lots of clever lyrics. Feels very "in the life of a horny teenager in a rough neighbourhood", which is captured well throughout all the songs. This music isn't my normal cup of tea but overall I enjoyed it and I see why it had the cultural impact it did. It's like watching a really good movie in a genre that you don't like; you probably won't watch it again but you recognize the work put into it and the quality of it.

Haven't listened to a Doors album before, but I love it! Roadhouse Blues - love the fast clip of this song, it's a bop. Lots of bluesy variety, with fast-paced and slower songs. The keys are pretty sick across all the songs.

Super easy to listen to, reminds me of Pixar movies. I think I’ll come back to this album for nice chill vibes when working. Gotta be 5 stars there’s nothing wrong with it

Liked the first song for the most part. I think each song has a lot of cool sounds and groovy parts but it always gets interrupted by some annoying grating sound part way through, might be worse on headphones, but I don’t want to bother trying to listen to this again on speakers. Overall the album gets really fatiguing over time, there’s not much downtime between songs so it feels like noise. I wanted to give it a 3 but after writing my thoughts it feels more like a 2 lol

Was never a big fan of the peppers, I find the singer's voice pretty grating and the lyrics nonsensical garbage. I didn't realize how funky they sound though, I love all of the bass guitar through this very long album, but man this album feels so long to get through. Not sure if it's just an issue with doing this 1001 challenge, but it felt hard to get through the whole thing. I think overall I enjoyed the bassline and funky grooves to the songs more than I hated them so I'll go with a 3/5 on this one.
