1001 Albums Summary

I’ve always liked the song Gimme Shelter, but it definitely hits different now being an adult aware of how easily war and crisis can happen. I don’t love the guitar being in only my left ear at the beginning of Love In Vain. The sound and Mick Jagger’s voice remind me of Violent Femmes though which is fun. Too slow/boring of a song for me though. Country Honk was fine I guess. I enjoyed the guitars being split in Live with Me. I did not care for the lyrics though. Oh god, I don’t really like the lyrics to Let It Bleed. Midnight Gambler was fun, but I don’t think I’d seek it out. I enjoyed You Got the Silver. Monkey Man was mid. Absolutely love You Can’t Always Get What You Want but really wish the acoustic guitar was in both ears. I’m sure I wouldn’t mind as much on speakers.

A Reflection was fine especially considering it is an intro. I like the guitars in Play for Today, but I don’t care for the smash/whip sounds or the lyrics. Secrets was okay, but not too exciting. I liked In Your house musically, but not lyrically. Three was weird but cool. The Final Sound was spooky lol but just an interlude of sorts. A Forest has such great movement and buildup. I really enjoyed the guitars on M. Love the bass in At Night. Seventeen Seconds was okay. Just slow like most of the songs on the record.

This sounds great so far. I can’t believe this is a live recording. Overall very nice, interesting that multiple takes of the same songs are on here though.

High energy start, god she was so talented Cry Baby pulls at my heart and did in fact make me cry I’ve loved Mercedes Benz since I was a kid :) I didn’t realize how much she didn’t write but I don’t care, still incredible.

It was okay. Kind of a rollercoaster on deciding if I like it or not. Definitely unsure about the lyrics in We’re Not Supposed To. Cool punk and 80s/90s sound overall though.

Very slow, but beautiful. This particular type of music isn’t really for me, but I do love Willie Nelson.
