1001 Albums Summary

Brown Sugar did not age well Never realized the last 2/3rds of Can’t you hear me knocking was just a sesh - best part of the album A mix of jazz, rock, blues, soul, country and I bet a bunch of other genres. I can why it’s influential but it’s eclectic range doesn’t resonate with me as a cohesive listen thru.

My introduction to The Killers was in high school. The weight room’s sound system played the radio or a selection of pre-approved burned CDs. For all four years we rotated between 6 different playlists. My favorite being the one with Human, Mr. Brightside, Someone Told Me, and All These Things That I’ve Done. These songs are still in my rotation.

There was a quiz on Spotify on how well you know Boston - I got a 36%; mostly because two of the questions were on this album Boston and guessing. I do not know Boston very well. I recognize a good amount of songs from this album but never searched them out.

This was a short album with only 4 songs. I ended up listening to it multiple times over the course of a long car drive. My passenger actually ended up falling asleep to this. Caught up in the Rapture and Sweet love are the best songs. If half the songs from the album are good, it must be a good album.

I’m missing some context for the opening song Exp but this is a banger of an album. You can tell how songs like Castles Made of Sand and If 6 was 9 influenced following rock songs. Great album.

Was half asleep coming into the office. Made a coffee and was ready to clear the inbox before the caffeine kicked in. The first song made me get on my feet and change to the standing desk.

This was a longe album but there were a lot more misses than hits for me. Maybe a bit too bluegrass influenced for me.

Allergies had a cool guitar riff so I was expecting more of that. Also didn’t resonate with the lyrics for the songs

Not giving B.B. King anything less than a 5

Adding some of these to the gym playlist

What a voice! This album could use a remaster

Not my type of music.

Great background chill songs

Good amount of songs that I don’t remember listening to. Like that there is a theme.

What a fun album

Bird of Prey soundtrack inspiration

Classic but the lyrics didn’t resonate
