1001 Albums Summary

Great album for some smooth jazz fusion.

Classic 90's album.

Needed a conga line to enjoy this one.

I got the blues, kraft macaroni and cheese.

Classic rock/Folk. Doesn't get much better.

One of the best from the Doors. Prefer their first album more but still great.

Great album by a great band.

one of the best from the 90's

Too progressive with Peter Gabriel. Do you like Phil Collins? I've been a big Genesis fan ever since the release of their 1980 album, Duke. Before that, I really didn't understand any of their work. Too artsy, too intellectual. It was on Duke where Phil Collins' presence became more apparent. I think Invisible Touch was the group's undisputed masterpiece. It's an epic meditation on intangibility. At the same time, it deepens and enriches the meaning of the preceding three albums. Listen to the brilliant ensemble playing of Banks, Collins and Rutherford. You can practically hear every nuance of every instrument. In terms of lyrical craftsmanship, the sheer songwriting, this album hits a new peak of professionalism. Take the lyrics to Land of Confusion. In this song, Phil Collins addresses the problems of abusive political authority. In Too Deep is the most moving pop song of the 1980s, about monogamy and commitment. The song is extremely uplifting. Their lyrics are as positive and affirmative as anything I've heard in rock. Phil Collins' solo career seems to be more commercial and therefore more satisfying, in a narrower way. Especially songs like In the Air Tonight and Against All Odds. But I also think Phil Collins works best within the confines of the group, than as a solo artist, and I stress the word artist. This is Sussudio, a great, great song, a personal favorite.

Great album but a real downer

Great start tot he punk era.

Meh

forgot it already

Not his best but had some good songs.

Trump can get wrekt. Elvis Aaron Presley is the one true king.

Big influence on some great bands (i.e. beatles, rolling stones) but like the bands he influenced better

Too new wavey

I like the meat puppets but Nirvana did the Meat Puppets better than the Meat Puppets.

Not my cup of tea.

In terms of new music out there this was better than most.

Not the worst elevator music I've heard.

Not a pretenders fan but THis was a good album.

Classic album by some classic ladies.

You know how I know you're gay...

It's the Who?

Just missed the 90's

some great R&B

great soul music

The best blues in town.

Already forgot it.

great modern LA jazz

First of its kind.
