1001 Albums Summary

I've never heard these songs before so it was interesting to listen to Queen's earlier album. The first half of the album didn't sound like Queen at all. It felt like they were trying to find their sound and finally found it at "Ogre Battle". This song had echos of their trademark sound. "Nevermore" reminded me of the beginning of "Bohemian Rhapsody" with the piano and sounded like the Freddy Mercury I grew up listening too. Rating it a 2 because I didn't like most of the songs on the album. I was surprised to rate this one so low since I love their hits.

Not my cup of tea. I would've enjoyed this when I was an angry teen. Reminds me of "Shameless". This type of music is good in TV shows/movies but I wouldn't listen to it by itself

Janis has an interesting voice. It reminds me of the modern female screamo singers. It's raspy, raw and lyrical at the same time. I liked some of the songs on this album but they all sounded similar and didn't hook me in. Not my cup of tea

Didn't like it at all. Really weird and really long songs

It's a good album for working out or road trips. I liked a lot of the songs on the album

I like the beat and concept of the album but not the lyrics

Perfect for driving on country roads and summer. Really enjoyed listening to this with my windows down. This made me want to explore his other albums

Liked parts of it but didn't feel cohesive

I liked some of the songs but you can definitely tell that Bowie was on drugs. I would listen again to some of the songs to see if it will grow on me

I liked parts of the songs on this album. There were nice saxophone and rock interludes but I didn’t like the voice of the singer. I forced myself to finish listening to the album

Love Respect and a few of the other songs. You need to be in the right mood for this album. Would listen again

I really enjoyed this album. Would listen to it again

Really surprised by how much I liked this album. I didn’t realize it was going to be swing/jazz based on the album art. I would listen to this again

Liked parts of it but couldn’t get past the vocals. The singers sounded off-key and took me out of the music. I didn’t finish the album

Ray Price’s voice is really nice but the songs were very repetitive and the instrumental music sounded like SpongeBob

Not my cup of tea. I skipped through a lot of the songs because they didn’t grab me

Really enjoyed this one as background music

I liked it but a little too repetitive for me

Liked the instrumentals but didn’t love the lead singer’s voice. It was kind of creepy. The album sounds like it could have potential but it didn’t grab me

Not for me. Didn’t like how long the first track was and the rest of the songs didn’t really grab me

Liked some of the songs but a lot of them sounded repetitive with the harmonica and him wailing about his love interest leaving him
