5/5

A different level

Blackstar

David Bowie · 1 likes

3/5

Not an album that I have ever really listened to. I think I went straight to listening to his classics as soon as he died and not this album. It’s very Bowie - imaginative and powerful. May take a couple more listens. Slightly harsh 3*

2/5

In the words of a good friend of mine….. not for me

Accessible rap

Various Artists

4/5

It’s Christmas

1/5

Exhibitionist nonsense

With The Beatles

Beatles

4/5

I’m with the Beatles on this one but I think they have another level to go

Moondance

Van Morrison

4/5

Given this is 55 years old, it’s still feels very fresh. Moondance is a classic and the standard throughout is high.

Illinois

Sufjan Stevens

2/5

A couple of interesting tracks and an engaging tune throughout. However not good enough to break the 1 hour rule so loses a star for that

Truth

Jeff Beck

4/5

This is one of the 1001 that has surprised me. Rod’s vocals are awesome and the production keeps it really fresh. Would listen again.

In Rainbows

Radiohead

3/5

S’alright i s’pose. Not a lot of Rainbow colour

Grace

Jeff Buckley

3/5

Interesting album. At the start I wondered whether I was still listening to Radiohead but I enjoyed the twists and turns as the album evolved

Solid Air

John Martyn

3/5

The first track didn’t set the tone for wha was actually a good solid album which grew on me as it went on.

Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere

Neil Young & Crazy Horse

4/5

Very good

Arthur (Or the Decline and Fall of the British Empire)

The Kinks

2/5

Repetitive

The Band

3/5

Twangy and jolly but I didn’t get much depth

Vanishing Point

Primal Scream

4/5

On point

Van Halen

3/5

Made me smile on my way to work. Solid 3

The Sensational Alex Harvey Band

2/5

Not sure the lyrics hold up today. Not that sensational. Next…

It's A Shame About Ray

The Lemonheads

3/5

I enjoyed the tempo of the album but couldn’t quite get right into it. Shane

Parsley, Sage, Rosemary And Thyme

Simon & Garfunkel

4/5

Not their best but nevertheless a great of it’s Thyme

Electric Prunes

The Electric Prunes

2/5

A prune

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

3/5

Strong début album and a sign of things to come.

Porcupine

Echo And The Bunnymen

3/5

Prickly

Different Class

Pulp

5/5

Quite literally a different class from start to finish

The Modern Lovers

3/5

A real melange

Play

Moby

5/5

Great to come back to this

Court And Spark

Joni Mitchell

4/5

Beautiful

Queen Of Denmark

John Grant

4/5

I only really became aware of John Grant last year when GMF came up on a playlist. I really enjoyed this - a very distinctive voice. Thank you 1001, I will definitely come back to this album

Music From Big Pink

The Band

3/5

No better or worse than the last Band album which only seems like a few days ago

Parachutes

Coldplay

3/5

Like listening to music in soft focus and pastel colours eating jelly babies and drinking sherry. Nice until you vomit. Yellow rescues it a bit.

Blue

Joni Mitchell

4/5

Presenting 1001 albums sponsored by Joni Mitchell and The Band

Bubble And Scrape

Sebadoh

2/5

Scraping the barrel 1001.

Synchronicity

The Police

3/5

I know I should be law abiding but I’ve never quite synchronised with the police

American IV: The Man Comes Around

Johnny Cash

4/5

Stripped back and simple but still captivating. Definitely IV stars. Might have been 5 if it hadn’t been for Danny Boy. Which shouldn’t be on any album. Ever.

Trafalgar

Bee Gees

3/5

A bit like the Bee Gees does musicals

A Night At The Opera

Queen

2/5

Difficult one to score. You could forgive any band for saying “my work here is done” after writing Bohemian Rhapsody. In the case of this album it was. The rest (which a couple of exceptions) is dire - an afterthought

If I Should Fall From Grace With God

The Pogues

4/5

Thank you 1001 for reminding me of the Pogues and an extra star for the best ever Christmas track.

If You Can Believe Your Eyes & Ears

The Mamas & The Papas

3/5

Exactly how I imagine the sixties were

Rocks

Aerosmith

2/5

I’m perhaps being harsh here, but there wasn’t anything memorable about this album

Crossing the Red Sea With the Adverts

The Adverts

3/5

This was significantly better than I feared after the first chord of the first song!

Definitely Maybe

Oasis

5/5

Not quite as good as I remember but still full of bangers. It’s definitely, not a maybe.

I Should Coco

Supergrass

2/5

Good first half, poor second (opposite of Leeds last night). Only Alright.

Heartattack And Vine

Tom Waits

4/5

Thank you 1001. Gravelly, fresh and thoughtful

Faith

George Michael

4/5

His best album

Rock 'N Soul

Solomon Burke

3/5

Short and sweet

Songs Of Leonard Cohen

Leonard Cohen

3/5

Very cohen but nothing on the album that grabs you by the short and curlies

The Man Who

Travis

3/5

I used to really like this album but maybe more for when it was in my life than the album itself. A few really good tracks but quite a lot not.

Dookie

Green Day

3/5

I like Green Day a lot and American Idiot would make my 1001 always. This is very much in style, but maybe just a tad samey?

Skylarking

XTC

1/5

There is a reason why people don’t buy albums. That’s because they are not very good. This is a good example of that. This album, like a lettuce has not got better with time.

John Prine

3/5

Some really good lyrics and an inoffensive sound

Caetano Veloso

3/5

Very original

Paul Simon

3/5

He’s better with his mate

Soul Mining

The The

3/5

I wasn’t really into The The at the time but I may well come back to this. Distinctive sound

Hysteria

Def Leppard

4/5

This would never normally be on my playlist but full of bangers and surprises

Rumours

Fleetwood Mac

5/5

Listen and learn 1001. I feel guilty that this can only get 5 stars. Packed with beautiful vocals and ageless tunes.

Meat Puppets II

Meat Puppets

1/5

It was always going to be difficult to follow “Rumours”. I’ve never heard of the Meat Puppets and I tried to be open minded but found the album disjointed lacking any musicality. Glad to get to the end

Mott

Mott The Hoople

2/5

Didn’t make me want to listen more, felt like a chore

Orbital 2

Orbital

4/5

This one surprised me. I didn’t want to like it, but listened to it twice and will definitely come back. Really innovative and takes you away from reality

Crosby, Stills & Nash

3/5

What is it with albums named after the band? Better with Young.

You Are The Quarry

Morrissey

4/5

Very strong lyrics and tracks that flow from one to the next.

Pelican West

Haircut 100

4/5

Fabulous 80’s vibe. Plenty of sax and a few bangers. A 3* but hey let’s go Plus One…

The Black Saint And The Sinner Lady

Charles Mingus

3/5

I like Jazz but there are only so many times I can snigger at musical instruments making fart noises.

The Bones Of What You Believe

CHVRCHES

3/5

I liked this. Good to have something from this century. A bridge from the 80’s

Come Find Yourself

Fun Lovin' Criminals

4/5

Lovin’ the fun

BEYONCÉ

Beyoncé

2/5

So disappointed with this. Self indulgent and rambling. It’s only because she has a great voice that it’s not 1*

Sticky Fingers

The Rolling Stones

5/5

Yeah, very good

Peter Gabriel

3/5

High hopes dashed by a bizarre second half of the album

Peter Gabriel

5/5

So, Peter on consecutive days. This was much better. Red Rain sets the tone and what follows keeps up the quality

Zombie

Fela Kuti

3/5

Fine as background music

New Boots And Panties

Ian Dury

3/5

A grudging 3 for the novelty and lyrics but unlikely to spend much more time listening to this.

Smile

Brian Wilson

2/5

This did not make me smile. There is no place for sheep noises and pop whistles on any album let alone one that is in the 1001. A grudging 2* because he is a legend

Ladies And Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space

Spiritualized

3/5

I grew into this. I’m not sure “space rock” is a genre, but this was very listenable

Cheap Thrills

Big Brother & The Holding Company

4/5

A 1001 gem

Buffalo Springfield Again

Buffalo Springfield

4/5

Not heard this before but a real mix - liked it

On The Beach

Neil Young

4/5

Solid Neil

Hot Buttered Soul

Isaac Hayes

3/5

I like a build up to a song, but 10 minutes is a bit much. Nevertheless, lots of class.

Giant Steps

The Boo Radleys

2/5

Boo

Quiet Life

Japan

3/5

Listened to this twice and I’m still not sure. It’s a transition album for me.

Kick Out The Jams (Live)

MC5

2/5

Stated well and felt fresh for its time. Unfortunately fresh turned to odd in the second half.

Rubber Soul

Beatles

5/5

Like meeting up with an old friend

Raw Like Sushi

Neneh Cherry

3/5

A couple of bangers at the start and at the time was very different. It hasn’t aged as well as a fine wine but still a good listen

Punishing Kiss

Ute Lemper

1/5

What are you doing Divine Comedy. There is a reason this only got to 104 in the album charts. A punishing listen

Cloud Nine

The Temptations

3/5

Chilled

The Sounds Of India

Ravi Shankar

2/5

Not my thing

Lady Soul

Aretha Franklin

5/5

Pure class

Led Zeppelin

3/5

It seems as though this album is trying to burst out into something more than it is but just does ever quite do it.

Juju

Siouxsie And The Banshees

3/5

A great band. An ok album

Fifth Dimension

The Byrds

3/5

This didn’t take me to a 5th dimension…

Ray Of Light

Madonna

4/5

Madge in her sweet spot

Disintegration

The Cure

4/5

A tad overproduced but a gripping way to pass half a train journey to Leeds.

Junkyard

The Birthday Party

2/5

I love Nick Cave but…::

Hard Again

Muddy Waters

5/5

Wonderful throughout

Safe As Milk

Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band

3/5

I found this album so mixed. I found myself drifting away in Blues only to be suddenly woken by some harsh lyrics. Not sure I can cope with the inconsistency.

Songs In The Key Of Life

Stevie Wonder

4/5

Brilliant but loses a star for length

Viva Hate

Morrissey

2/5

Cheer up mate

Dear Science

TV On The Radio

3/5

Coldplay without the whining. Enjoyed this.

Superunknown

Soundgarden

2/5

Should have stuck to Bond movies. Dull and long

This Is Hardcore

Pulp

3/5

A Different Class was so good that subsequent albums were always going to be difficult.

Led Zeppelin III

Led Zeppelin

3/5

A score to match the album

GREY Area

Little Simz

3/5

Nearly a 4. I like the angst, but I’m left not 100% sure as to what it’s about.

Nebraska

Bruce Springsteen

3/5

He’s definitely done better things

High Violet

The National

4/5

Note to self. Listen to The National more

Axis: Bold As Love

Jimi Hendrix

3/5

I know he’s a genius but what was that first track?

Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music

Ray Charles

2/5

For me this was an album signalling the end of something not the start. Dated.

Deloused in the Comatorium

The Mars Volta

1/5

Awful

Melodrama

Lorde

4/5

Great voice and fresh sound

16 Lovers Lane

The Go-Betweens

2/5

For me this tailed off in the second half. At the start, I was taken by the simplicity and catchiness. It then got just a bit….. boring… Perhaps a harsh 2*

Electric Warrior

T. Rex

4/5

Got it on

Hms Fable

Shack

3/5

Bit like the Las. But not quite as good

The Rolling Stones

4/5

Full of gems

Bad

Michael Jackson

4/5

With the exception of Speed Demon (what were you thinking MJ) this is full of great pop songs. I’m also told that it is pre cancellation. On that basis 4*

The Libertines

3/5

Catchy but not a huge amount of variety

Dr. Octagonecologyst

Dr. Octagon

1/5

Just not my thing

Speakerboxxx/The Love Below

OutKast

2/5

I didn’t mind this but deductions apply for length

James Brown Live At The Apollo

James Brown

3/5

Definitely a pioneer

Cross

Justice

1/5

French electronic music duo are 4 words that shouldn’t be combined. Dreadful

Moss Side Story

Barry Adamson

1/5

What?

Surf's Up

The Beach Boys

3/5

Mixed

Low

David Bowie

3/5

I like the way Bowie moves his music on in the first side but goes a bit far for me on the second. I’d rather hear his lyrics and voice.

The Holy Bible

Manic Street Preachers

2/5

All just a bit shouty

Desperate Youth, Blood Thirsty Babes

TV On The Radio

2/5

Not as good as Dear Science

Common

4/5

I really rather enjoyed this. Some thought provoking lyrics and a tunes to match.

Wonderful Rainbow

Lightning Bolt

1/5

Not at all wonderful

All That You Can't Leave Behind

3/5

I’ve never been able to go all in with U2. The Joshua Tree is a masterpiece and they’ve never hit those heights since

Blonde On Blonde

Bob Dylan

4/5

Full of Dylan magic but even Bob shouldn’t break the 1 hour rule

At San Quentin

Johnny Cash

3/5

An interesting concept for the album but you probably had to be there….. or maybe not…..

Face to Face

The Kinks

2/5

1001 has over Kinked it

At Fillmore East

The Allman Brothers Band

3/5

Yawn

Garbage

4/5

Is forgotten what a banging album this is. Some great tunes throughout

Marquee Moon

Television

3/5

I tried to listed to this at the end of the day when very tired and hated it. Tried again in the morning and can see the attraction!

The Bends

Radiohead

5/5

A different level

Superfly

Curtis Mayfield

3/5

Smoooottthhhhh

Your New Favourite Band

The Hives

2/5

Definitely not my new favourite band

Abattoir Blues / The Lyre of Orpheus

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

5/5

Incredible delivery

American Beauty

Grateful Dead

3/5

All new to me and not at all unpleasant

There's No Place Like America Today

Curtis Mayfield

3/5

You are spot on Curtis. Sadly not blown away

The United States Of America

2/5

Why is this on the 1001?

Mothership Connection

Parliament

4/5

Funkadelic. Love this

Rage Against The Machine

2/5

Not my thing.

Music From The Penguin Cafe

Penguin Cafe Orchestra

3/5

Quirky, fun and had a second listen

Blackstar

David Bowie

3/5

Vivid

Living Colour

2/5

A melange of all things 80’s soft rock and as a consequence nothing stand out. Listened in the car with my brother and he would think I’m being generous at 2*

After The Gold Rush

Neil Young

4/5

Welcome back Neil, it’s been such a long time ;-)

Bitte Orca

Dirty Projectors

3/5

I really didn’t want to like this but oddly I did.

Here's Little Richard

Little Richard

3/5

A classic, full of energy but dated and repetitive
