1001 Albums Summary

Certainly some grade A classic songs. Not quite sure if it's a masterpiece, but it reminds you that Bono and U2 were once influential greats and not a bit of a punchline.

Rap is a genre that I absolutely appreciate, and on occasion like a lot,, but I need to be in a certain mood to go out of my way to listen to it.
