1001 Albums Summary

I am not really a fan of The Smiths but lets go. I kinda like "I Know Its Over".. the song progresses and swells. Thats nice. I can see the appeal of this. Its not for me, though. It was kind of pleasant.. in one ear, out the other. It all kinda sounded the same, like how all your soup tastes the same when you use the same soup base. Its fine but we can do better. A 3, I'd give it a 2.5 if I could.

I was hoping to hear more stuff like this. I know and dig Bowie, but I rarely engage with his albums. I am excited for this one. An auspicious start.. reminds me of some prog rock, just an instrumental vamp that grows over time. This is an incredible album. Funk, rock, but it sounds totally unique. Bowie is a true visionary on this one. You can HEAR IT, the author's voice. 5 out of 5, we cannot deny it.

One of the great albums. I am ready a Radiohead fan. It was fun to revisit this one.

What an album. REALLY REALLY fun. I'd give it a 4.5 if I could. I was groovin the whole time, but nothing moved me behind my touchas.

Ah man. I can't put my finger on why I don't like Michael Jackson. He insists upon himself, I guess. Hard to argue with how good this album is though. Quincy Jones producing, so its slaps AND bangs. Its a 3 for me though

This one is just not for me. I can hear how moving it is, but it didn't move me. I think I'm in the "broken hearts are for assholes" camp

I know a lot of these songs (particularly Four Women). But I hadn't heard them as an album. Really great stuff, as expected. A genius at work. 5 stars.
