Engine 1 compressor stalled 3 or 4 times about 1000 feet. Shut engine down and returned for overweight landing.
After takeoff we heard 3 or 4 large bangs. We realized we were losing number one. I immediately [advised ATC]. We leveled off at 3000 feet. We requested vectors back to land. We ran some procedures and secured number one. We did a downwind; base and final and landed XXL at ZZZ.
