1001 Albums Summary

Harvest by Neil Young

8/10

Back To Black by Amy Winehouse

Automatic For The People by R.E.M.

Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & The Holding Company

Led Zeppelin III by Led Zeppelin

As a casual fan, I was already vaguely familiar with this record, but I’m more drawn to I and IV. A few great tunes including Tangerine which I’d forgotten about, but too much acoustic fluff.

The Marshall Mathers LP by Eminem

Not bad. You can see why it’s popular. I don’t mind some hip hop but it’s too brash and annoying for me.

Moon Safari by Air

An all time classic

A Date With The Everly Brothers by The Everly Brothers

I liked it, especially Always It’s You. I’ve always liked their harmonies, especially on their slower tracks. Not sure if it’s enough to my tastes I’d listen again though.

Remain In Light by Talking Heads

Not as accessible as my favourite Speaking in Tongues, but a classic all the same

Nevermind by Nirvana

Not the biggest Nirvana fan, but it’s an all time classic

Cut by The Slits

A quirky classic

KE*A*H** (Psalm 69) by Ministry

Not really my bag, but I can appreciate the craft!

At Newport 1960 by Muddy Waters

Not a bluesman, but I liked it.
