1001 Albums Summary

Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & The Holding Company

Madman Across The Water by Elton John

I think I genuinely need to know more about how music is made to appreciate why this album is special. I had a hard time understanding the words due to the vocalist's enunciation while singing. 5/10. Mediocre to my ears.

Dear Science by TV On The Radio

Here again, I'm hearing noisy rock. Disappointed.

After The Gold Rush by Neil Young

Solid, clear and poignant lyrics. Truly a great songwriter.

White Blood Cells by The White Stripes

Paranoid by Black Sabbath

I loved the heavy metal sound and I most of all appreciated what I perceive to be an anti-war message.

Locust Abortion Technician by Butthole Surfers

The first I couldn't finish in this project. Disjointed noise, it's not for me.

Kick Out The Jams (Live) by MC5

Sign 'O' The Times by Prince

Play by Moby

Decent, I was able to finish this one. I'd much rather listen to the original recordings the samples were from though.

Double Nickels On The Dime by Minutemen

Black Metal by Venom

Too shouty and dark for me. I did dig the punk+metal sound though and can understand how it would appeal to some.

Bayou Country by Creedence Clearwater Revival

The Colour Of Spring by Talk Talk

I genuinely enjoyed the atmosphere of the music. Whatever this genre is, I'm into it.

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens

I love this album. I love his expansive vision of what music can be. His lyrics are poetic and playful. It was a major discovery for me in high school and I think truly an album that shaped who I have become.

Fleet Foxes by Fleet Foxes

Sheer Heart Attack by Queen

It was good, enjoyable listen, though somewhat outside of my perferred genres. I really love Killer Queen.

Modern Kosmology by Jane Weaver

It's cool, but I don't know why it's on this list.

Parsley, Sage, Rosemary And Thyme by Simon & Garfunkel

Lovely songwriting, loved every minute of it.
