1001 Albums Summary

Love when the harmonica came on in ‘Hey Hey, My My’. Powderfinger is really good. I prefer the Harvest Moon era though, I expected more harmonica!

It felt like instrumental music in Nando’s for a lot of it. I can acknowledge it’s musically very good but it was rather repetitive and very much background music that I wouldn't listen to again. I liked the trumpet - there could have been more trumpet imo, that would bring it up a notch

Strong opener, liking the steel pans in uh-oh, love comes to town. Some nothing-y songs in between Don’t worry about the government is… interesting. Very warbly and nonsensical. I love a bit of talking heads but this album isn’t for me besides the first song and obviously psycho killer unfortunately which do some heavy lifting. Pulled up is a decent-ish ending. Slightly disappointed though!

Love love love! Obviously the ICONIC Running up that Hill and Cloudbusting!! Never heard ‘The Big Sky’ and think it’s fabulous. Don’t love ‘Mother stands for comfort’ - very repetitive ‘Waking the witch’ is WACKY and kind of hurts my head Enjoyed ‘jig of life’ a lot as well as ‘hello earth’. Final song was a nice ending. First half is lovely, second half is very experimental and wacky vibes. Very theatrical

Tiny dancer, Indian Sunset and Rotten Peaches are my faves. I didn’t realise Ghetto Gospel was sampling Indian Sunset so that’s a fun discovery (I knew it was Elton John). I just wasn’t wowed like I thought I’d be so that’s why it’s a 3 for me.

Love it! Some I recognise and some I don’t, super funky and soulful. Really enjoyed this one - lots of covers though? I didn’t listen to the single versions or the interviews.

Not my favourite, I’m not much of a hard rock fan. First few songs are decent Walkin on the sidewalks felt like it went on forever :/ You would know was droney and repetitive

First few songs were meh but I got into the rest. Very repetitive but decent background music

It’s alright! 19 minute long songs are never necessary. I think most of my previous ratings were too generous so I have amended them. A couple of the songs were enjoyable

My notes got deleted :( nostalgic cos my dad likes the song marquee moon and I enjoyed a few of the others. Quite repetitive but honestly I liked it! No song ever needs to be 19 minutes long though

terrible. I’ve heard worse in my life but I can’t give it more than a 1

Homeward bound is my fave :) an enjoyable album A cute, whimsical time, perfect for autumn

Not for me but I don't hate it. I wouldn't listen again, it's too long! But, I like some of the songs individually. Cupid de Locke is where I started enjoying it - much less rocky. I'd listen to that again. Muzzle was also decent. 1979 sounds familiar and I really like it. I've added it to my November playlist :) same with 'We only come out at night' Honestly I enjoyed it more than I thought I would - not a fan of the rock/metal vibe songs but I like a few of the songs. I'd say 2.5 total

Again, not my style.

Very moany and miserable. I guess the title should have given that away. Vulnerable but it's too droney for me.

YAYAYAYAYAYAYYAYAYAYAYYAYA

Ooooh I like. It's funky and fun. Standouts for me are Freedom and Thin Line

I like words. Some fun tunes but I wouldn't listen again I don't think - too fast to be in the background when working/studying
