1001 Albums Summary

I’m pretty indifferent to Bruce Springsteen’s music. Although, I’ve only really heard ‘The Hits’ but never dived much deeper. To me, this album felt grandeur but in a forced way. I think Springsteen has a great voice. ‘Hungry Heart’ rules (can hear the collective groan of Springsteen fans)! Didn’t love this album but maybe I was in the wrong mood to listen to it.

Big fan of The Kinks. This album is good! Sounds like if The Beatles were good.

This album reminds me of when my stepdad was having a drug induced menty b and required this album on full ball to fall asleep to. My mum HATED ‘One of My Turns’— to quote “I’d finally fall asleep and that f***ing song with the glass breaking would wake me up”. 3/5 for the album. But going to take a star away for mum’s lack of sleep.

GYBR (song) and Saturday Night’s Alright are such bangers. I like Elton John heaps but have only listened to the hits. Didn’t realise that all these mad singles are from GYBR. I love the theatrical and grandeur elements of this album (esp. Funeral for a Friend)— Elton can do this authentically and naturally— give it up, Springsteen (see previous review)! Some songs are ‘of their time’, but overall I think it’s a pretty great album. 3.5

Very pleasant to listen to! Maybe needed more drugs for my taste in 60s music, but still rocked

Excellent album! Westerberg could write a fkn song. Perfect band.

Every song rocks

Not my cup of tea. A little boring! Definitely not the worst thing I’ve listened to

I’m sure JM rocks but seems a bit vanilla in comparison to other similar female artists at the time. Just my opinion!

Shit rocks. Plain and simple!

I simply cannot listen to this

I truly tried to listen all the way through. Sorry Malcom. I saw ya grave at High Gate Cemetery and was very impressed

Sumner cannot sing…and that’s all a part of the charm. NO rocks. Never listened to this album all the way through before. Absolute knock on from me, as it’s so good. 5/5!

10/10 the actual best. Keep a little Marc in your heart.

Pretty sick. Thoroughly enjoyed

Amazing

Absolutely beautiful. The true GOAT for a reason.

🤖 WE ARE THE ROBOTS 🤖 Kraftwerk sind ausgezeichnet. 5/5 Sterne

Oh hell yeah. This rocked my CD player when I was 11

It’s a big ‘Yes’ from me

Unfortunately, I love this man and all his music

Hard pass

The actual best. Love them forever

Pretty sick

Kick ass

I liked it!

Perfect. No notes. Simply the best.
