#861 Bob Dylan – The Bootleg Series Vol. 4: Bob Dylan Live 1966, The “Royal Albert Hall” Concert

Whenever I see Bob Dylan‘s name I wonder if I should even listen to it. I can skip listening to it now and score it over a 9 out of 10. It would save time. Of course, I will not skip it. There is a minor probably with Dylan’s album The Bootleg Series Vol. 4: […]

#855 Bob Dylan – Time Out Of Mind

And the biggest surprise was seeing that Bob Dylan is on the list in the 90s. He actually has two albums in the 90s. The other one will be here shortly. Time Out of Mind is Dylan’s 30th studio album. That is quite an amazing feat to produce an album that was a critical and […]

#827 Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds – Murder Ballads

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds released their ninth studio album Murder Ballads in 1996 to critical acclaim. Even MTV nominated Cave for this album, but he asked to be removed from the nominations. “Where the Wild Roses Grow” featuring Kylie Minogue was the most popular song from the album, but to be fair Minogue […]

#757 Frank Black – Teenager of the Year

Charles Thompson IV has been known by a few different monikers, such as Black Francis while in the Pixies, then Frank Black when he started his solo career and back to Black Francis in 2007. He has stated that his solo career is over. His second album Teenager of the Year was released in 1994 to […]

#745 PJ Harvey – Rid of Me

PJ Harvey returns for a second time on 1001 Albums… with her second studio album Rid of Me. The album is listed on Rolling Stone’s 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. I was not a huge fan of her first album, but I liked it enough to not dread seeing this one on the list. […]

#730 Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds – Henry’s Dream

Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds is another band that I have heard of, but once again I do not know their music and I have never heard their seventh studio album Henry’s Dream. The album received mostly favourable reviews. After listening to it, I could not decide how I really felt. I did not […]

#342 Bob Dylan – Blood On The Tracks

Blood On The Tracks is Bob Dylan’s return to the list of 1001 Albums You Must Hear… I wonder if it can be any good since he has been away for a season. I think he had a few misses in the previous years. Or this list is crazy as usual. The album is believed […]

#237 John Prine – John Prine

I did not know anything about John Prine before listening to this album. He is a country folk singer. He is still alive. That seems to be a miracle and this is his first album. His songs tend to be filled with humour and politics. The first song “Illegal Smile” made me think of Bob […]

#195 Rod Stewart – Gasoline Alley

Gasoline Alley is Rod Stewart‘s second solo album of his long and successful career. He has recorded 30 studio albums. “Rod the Mod” was one of my favourite artist when I was growing up. I have seen him in concert three times. It is strange that I have never heard this whole album nor his […]

#163/#164 Fairport Convention – Unhalfbricking & Liege & Lief

Unhalfbricking is the third album from Fairport Convention a British folk rock band. I am not the biggest fan of folk music, but i have come to appreciate some of it. Unfortunately, I hate Sandy Denny’s vocals. It is too much like Joan Baez’s voice. My head was hurting as I listened to her singing. […]
