#727 Tori Amos – Little Earthquakes

Little Earthquakes was my introduction to Tori Amos. I became a fan of her quickly. I turned my friends onto her music. I finally found someone new I could relate to. I went to see her in concert three times, I think. She was amazing in concert. I remember the first concert the most. It […]

#726 Ministry – ΚΕΦΑΛΗΞΘ

Ministry was band that I used to listen to a lot, especially before their fifth album release ΚΕΦΑΛΗΞΘ. The album is more commonly called Psalm 69: The Way to Succeed and the Way to Suck Eggs or Psalm 69. I remember listening to them when they were more new wave and synth-pop in the 80s. […]

#725 Stereo MC’s – Connected

Stereo MC’s third album Connected is one I used to listen to a lot when it was released. I remember going to clubs where they played this type of acid jazz and trip hop mix. It was bizarre, but I sort of enjoyed it. I have not listened to them in years. One of the […]

#724 Sonic Youth – Dirty

I remember Sonic Youth‘s seventh studio album Dirty because I remember the album cover and I remember seeing it in Eric’s car. I do not remember the any of the songs at this time, but I am sure it will come back to me after I listen to it. Actually, I did not remember any […]

#723 Tom Waits – Bone Machine

Tom Waits fifth and final album on the list was his tenth studio album Bone Machine. This album features a lot of special guest appearances such as Primus‘ Les Claypool, Waddy Wachtel known for his work with Stevie Nicks, and The Rolling Stones’ Keith Richards. This album has dark themes of murder and death. I could not get […]

#722 Sugar – Copper Blue

Sugar is one of those bands I remember seeing their name everywhere, but I never listened to them. I knew that singer/guitarist Bob Mould was in Hüsker Dü, but I did not know that band either until I started this list of 1001 Albums. Copper Blue was their critically acclaimed debut album. Another album that […]

#721 Spiritualized – Lazer Guided Melodies

I know I have heard of Spiritualized, but it was probably a later album. I missed their debut album Lazer Guided Melodies. It seems from the description that I would enjoy it. English space rock sounds trippy to me. I think it will be great. The first song “You Know It’s True” reminded me of […]

#720 The Pharcyde – Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde

I have never heard of The Pharcyde. As you may know by now, I am not a fan of hip hop and rap. Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde was their debut album. They infused their hip hop with jazz music and light-hearted vulgar lyrics. The second song on the album sums up my feelings exactly […]

#719 R.E.M. – Automatic for the People

I have already reviewed a couple albums from R.E.M. I was a huge fam of their music. I remember when their eighth album Automatic for the People came out in 1992. My best friend was Eric. He was a drummer. I was going through a rough time in life, but he was there for a […]

#718 Dr. Dre – The Chronic

I am not sure that I have ever heard a song from Dr. Dre. I am not a fan of rap. I imagine I will not like his 1992 debut solo album The Chronic. I will be extremely brief on this review. Firstly, the album was not available on Spotify. I listened to it on […]
