1001 Albums Summary

Excellent musicians, transported from the first chords across the Atlantic to Cuba.

I never got the hype for Oasis but I appreciated the contribution their music brought to the culture of the time and enjoy guitar bands. Looking at the track listing, it was full of the hits I knew but listening filled a couple of gaps and I heard the familiar tunes in the intended running order. A good listen.

Have not been a fan of REM ever. Album was great musically but did not elevate their position in my favoured music. Listened while running, passed the time but did not inspire me. Despite their considerable talent, the tracks sound the same to me. So sorry.

I doubt I’ll listen to The Pixies again. Just not my scene although I’m appreciative of anyone that commits to getting coherent sound out of instruments.

Enjoyed this. Great rhythms and harmonies. Love music that takes you on a journey not just the music but through interest in the musicians background. I ended up with new music and new understanding about life around the world.

Dependable guitar riffs and rhythms with just about the right level of passion and tone. Enjoyable listen.

I guess this is one of the best introductions to blues that I am going to get. Have heard the name B.B. King practically all my life but never really listened to his music. Atmospheric of the clubs back in the 60’s where this music will have been enjoyed and it strikes me that I might not have accessed it live easily at that time. Tight band and singing lead guitar, giving us an education in love through the lyrics.
