1001 Albums Summary

A hall mark of hip hop and one of my personal favorite hip hop records. Songs like “The World is Yours” and “N.Y. State of Mind” are truly timeless let alone how well the overall track list has stayed punctual over the years. It’s crazy that this is the first album that was generated for me because I listened to this album repeatedly in 2019 when I moved to Katowice, Poland to start my journey in esports. 10/10 Life’s a bitch and then we die!!

Johnny Cash is one of the staples of rock and roll from back in the day. Great listen with some timeless tunes. “25 minutes to go” was one I hadn’t heard before. It stood out due to the structure of the lyrics ticking down to the singer’s ultimate demise. Nothing about this album is overally complicated as to be expected for the time period. Cash’s voice is in its prime and to have this album be recorded live in an actual prison is pretty fucking cool. 7.8/10.

Sick listen as always, the man who sold the world and Where did you sleep last night are still some of my favorite nirvana tracks to listen to.

Incredible performance on this album from Billy Joel. The Stranger has one of my favorite songs from Billy of all time, Vienna, which will always have a place close to my heart.

I love you Frank Ocean.

RIP Dolly Parton. I’ve never heard this album before but there’s a few cuts on this record that hit you right in the feels. “Coat of Many Colors” moved me a lot; it reminded me of my own mom and the love she carries for me. I also really enjoyed “If I Lose My Mind” and “The Mystery of the Mystery”. Hell of a voice, and a great country album overall.

put this one on the back burner as I was pretty busy today. Still going to give it a listen though!
