1001 Albums Summary

Really liked Disarm and Spaceboy. Giving it a 3, but I almost rated two. Genre isn’t my favorite, but it’s a solid album in its lane.

I’m a big jazz fan, but this just isn’t my cup of tea. It’s too unstructured and free-form. I suppose a purist loves it, but I want something a little more mainstream than this style.

Loved it. I don’t normally listen to singer/songwriter, but this opened my ears to what the genre could be. His use of a wide variety of instruments expands past the typical stereotypes of the genre. I added multiple songs from this to a new playlist for this genre, I didn’t have one before.

Own’s his space. Few names are at celebrated as Bon Dylan in the world of songwriting. The second half of the album lacks the punch of the first, but classic regardless.

Ethereal. Industrial. Screeching. Three words that should rarely, if ever, go into the same sentence. I’m not sure what collection of guitar pedal was used to create this…symphony of sounds, however, I’m pretty BOSS should update their firmware such that the pedals never work in this combination again.

Felt like a concept album after listening to it. Some of the tracks ended with weird noises and I couldn’t sense a singular sound nor theme.

Exemplar for work in this category and a benchmark for others. Classic hip-hop isn’t one of my favorites, but even I can recognize this is the pinnacle of it.
