1001 Albums Summary

Already heard it. Not bad but not my style-too noisy.

Already heard this one too. Great album

Three for three for already listened-played it to death years ago.

I'm too old for this but I do recognize it as great rock and roll.

The kind of album you listen to when you are in college and you think you are listening to cutting edge stuff. It isn't.

Already heard, probably my favorite Yes album overall. One of best progressive albums musically-lyrics are lame. Listened to Super Deluxe version-very nice live concert included.

A lot more variety and musical quality than I expected.

To me basic 1950's jazz but some very nice interaction among the band. Probably won't listen to it again but enjoyed it enough this one time through.

Good religious music, not my style. Glad I listened to it once but probably never again.

Never heard this album before. Interesting view of Queen before they got any decent songs but it all kind of blended together after a while. One listen and done.

Claims to be "New Rave." To me kind of a cross between metal and dance music with melodic singing. Doesn't do too much for me. Another once and done.

Played this a lot. A true classic

OK but not too exciting to me.

Actually pretty good, quiet indy music.

OK album

Never heard before but heard of it. Very good album definitely will do repeated listens.

1974 album heard of (much later) but never heard - on track 2 but so far amazing in a Queen like way. Edit: By track 3 their intensity grows a little too much. Will have to take in bits and pieces. Give it my first 5.

generic speedy metal. No thanks.

Knew nothing about them, recognized the single (T1 Bitter Sweet Symphony). Remind me a lot of Split Enz/ Crowded House. I really like this album. A great album throughout!

Scottish band per PR into R&B, hip hop and electronica. Pleasant enough.

Excellent album, very much a modern folk album that happened to sell a lot.

another heavy metal noise band, probably appealed to the 15-17 yo white male "rebel"

Pop album. Recognized the hits, the rest kind of blended into the background. OK.

hardcore very popular hiphop.

Never heard of them before. Their debut album, very big UK seller started the trend Britpop. Doesn't sound very poppy to me. Alt-rock whatever that is-maybe. I like their quieter songs like She's Not Dead. Generally liked the album, worth exploring further.

OK but dance club beats haven't lasted that well for me. Don't really see the appeal of her but OK.

A classic among progressive fans. For some reason early Genesis never connected with me (and I like later Peter Gabriel and later Genesis). Probably their most famous/popular album. Probably a very good album but it does nothing for me.

British (actually Scottish) pop, kind of all blends together in the background. Was OK but no interest in it to me.

Very good album, good group. Will check out other albums.

Interesting. Never heard before and huge play numbers on these tracks. Kind of electronica, funk, dance hall, etc all mixed together. Interesting but gets tiresome after awhile. Probably fun dance tunes, not so great for just listening.

Their debut album, has reputation of being pioneer of punk and alt-rock. OK album not my type.

Very interesting album, lots of genres touched on. Indian music with light rap, new age, etc overtones. This album is supposed to be based on nuclear weapons (India vs. Pakistan).

Probably the best heavy metal album I've heard. Heard most of the songs on the radio but they flow together as a piece. That said not really my type of music-but very well done.

Have the album. Very good album but certainly not my favorite Fela Kuti album. Ginger Baker is just too much for me.

Already have. Great group, great album that I have heard too often to really enjoy anymore-but this is a definite top quality album.

Ok album, nothing special. I liked the Forever Changes album much more.

Have it. A classic live album. A classic Who album. Great performances

Already have album but completely forgot it. Good album, my favorite track by far is the hit My Doorbell.

Pretty good album, especially for it's time. When it came out I didn't like it's glorification of hard drug use, esp heroin, and I have the same problem with it today.

basically this is background noise to me, not the least bit appealing.

Algerian music, pleasant enough. Interesting version of John Lennon's Imagine. IMO not rock music more like a pop world music.

Track 1 starts with low fidelity fake vinyl scratchy noises-I hate that gimmick. Other than that OK album, doesn't grab me but not horrible.

Rick Rubin hired to give them a new sound-hard rock. Did a decent job but nothing special, no appeal to me.

Great album, when the Beatles were transitioning from a boy pop band to greatness. All songs very short as radio mandated then and still all sung in four part harmony only. All songs perfect or nearly so. An absolute must listen to album.

First time listening to this album. From reading about it this was a very popular double CD. I like it generally but the lead singer's voice is annoying and monochromatic to me. My favorite tracks: title song, Cupid De Locke, Porcelina of the Vast Oceans and 1979.
