1001 Albums Summary

This album was already one of my favorites! rock with you is unparalleled

Something I would have never found on my own. But such a unique sound that had me headbangin all the way

classic

This is automatically in my top 5 albums! How did I forget my love for 70s and 80s music?? The Boys are Back in Town is literally my childhood watching A Knights Tale on DVD for Friday night movie night. This is literally the perfect album to throw on for a Sunday morning cleaning sesh

Not for me

David bowie can do no wrong! this is the album with golden years on it which is my childhood as well

Learning and instrumental background music to put me in a work flow?! more likely than you think

It's no wonder the Police made this list they're iconic! Bring back when albums are created to tell a story with the songs and their order. This may have been a mini fever dream at points but it's great

fun lil folksy vibe. it's got the sauce too which makes me want to look up more of their work!

Absolute classic

sounds like the singer from the Cranberries

I never would've picked this up on my own but i'm so glad it's included. It's a masterclass in constructing an album which is a lost art now. each song flows into the next seamlessly. The atmosphere is set perfectly with the droning notes in the background. I'm lowkey obsessed with the harmonies in ready or not.

Discordant and chaotic. I get why people might like it but definitely not for me

The notes of peak 70s funk are delightful. Not a one of these songs was a miss.

This is a fever dream that I could only listen to maybe once a year. It's insane but in a good way

Neil Young is a fucking ICON. You want a chill album to put on in the background? No sweat. It doesn't matter if you're doing Saturday morning cleaning, a cross country road trip, or you need the perfect playlist to commit a heist to. Anything Neil Young touches is fucking gold.

Always heard of radiohead but never actually listened! The range in this album alone is fantastic and definitely wants to make me listen to more!

How have I never heard of this mans before?! This makes me want to take my shoes off by a lake and sit in an Adirondack chair sipping an ice cold beer to enjoy the sunset. Goddamn

how did you know i love chaotic jazz to plan a heist to?

You can hear in every song how much this band has influenced modern artists today. The kinks are foundational to any flavor of rock and for good reason!

I understand that Bob Dylan is a classic and he may have even changed the face of white boy music and who can pass for a singer, but you do not have to listen to him. He is in every gas station, every cracker barrel, every movie background where the road gets vaguely dusty. And listening to him now, in this world that has felt the affects of Bob Dylan in music, feels like it's been overplayed since every other artist sounds a little like him. I could just listen to Jack Johnson and at least he doesn't sound like hes gargling nails.

Oh the early 2000s. What a time to be alive. Every single song from coldplay is a movie soundtrack and hits you different depending on where you are in life. It's only a 4/5 though cause sometimes they sing a little flat and it irks me

Ugh how dare someone do the exact weird cinematic atmospheric melodic music that my little adhd brain loves. Mixing pop, blues, rock, orchestral pieces and a sprinkle of gospel is my brand of weird. I didn't think I would enjoy this but damnnit i did

I was afraid of the early 2000s album cover threatening to suck me back into a room with furry wallpaper and inflatable furniture and honestly this is what the album does. Is this a good thing or a bad thing? You decide
