1001 Albums Summary

Absolute classic and master piece!

Not necessarily a big reggae fan but I like the more bluesy and jazzy side of this one. Very enjoyable listen , solid 3.5/5

Surprisingly enjoyable! I thought I didn't like Coldplay and that this band was hugely overrated but that album was basically back to back hits. I guess the production could be a bit less compressed and allow for a bit more space and breathing room though.

Amazing album! I wasn't ready for the gut punch that was "Four Women", wow! That's the first Nina Simone album I listen front to back and it was very enjoyable and an emotional rollercoaster.

Very nice album: well produced, some interesting prog elements and progression. It does lose a bit of steam towards the end though.

Too simple and minimalist for my taste. With that said, I'm glad Working Class Hero exists!

Boring and very niche. Interesting synth sound but very repetitive compositions and weird mastering (very subdued drum kit). I don't understand how that album is meaningful. Highlights: The Architect, Valley.

Ok, much more enjoyable than his previous album (Plastic Ono Band)! Less experimental maybe (although I guess nothing else he ever produced quite sound like "I Don't Wanna Be a Soldier Mama" which is my favorite, love the jazzy feel and Black Sabbathish delivery) but every song has something interesting in it: from the blues elements of "It's so Hard" to the classical ensemble on "How do You Sleep". I went in this album thinking it would be a slog and ended up positively surprised!

An interesting collection of sound experiments, some hit, some miss and as a Del/Hieroglyphics fan, I appreciated the hip-hop ones quite a lot.

Yeah I like Oasis, there is nothing I can do about it! It's maybe not my favorite album from them but the classic Oasis sound is there and it's a very enjoyable listen that brings me back!

Meh. Nothing to write home about. It just made me want to listen to Chuck Berry instead.

I didn't know Barry Adamson and I was positively surprised with this one! Lots of interesting ideas mixing jazz and a light electronic touch. Maybe a tad long?

I knew a few songs, including the (in)famous Coconut song... And that's definitely an interesting listen! Nilsson has a great voice, the production sounds great despite the age of the record and the arrangements are really cool. Saw a few "American Beatles" thrown around and yeah, I definitely prefer this album over anything I've listened from the Beatles so far!

Maybe I'll revisit that one at a later point but I doubt it. I find the most experimental and progressive bits more miss than hit. I thought I would enjoy this album more.

A live album? Really? Get outta here!

Such a great album! Tons of fun and encapsulating perfectly the 80s! I absolutely love those synths and the various experiments! It's a bit less interesting in the middle of the record (I'd say from Wish to Krisco Kiss) but the A side is amazing and the end of the B side is rock solid.

Meh... Nothing that interesting. Kinda run off the mill American rock.
