1001 Albums Summary

The Wall by Pink Floyd

Musicianship is excellent (as you’d expect) and a number of the songs are excellent but overall let down by Waters whole hating an education system that, frankly, he and his generation were privileged to benefit from. Quite a lot of the writing around that subject feels like a parody and feels like it was written by a 14 year old.

Doggystyle by Snoop Dogg

Not my cup of tea at all so not really fair for me to review. The best I can say about it is that it’s comfortably ignore-able.

Ramones by Ramones

Short and sharp. High energy. Not bad.
