Don't get me wrong, that album has some tracks that love it or hate it were a big part of the cultural zeitgeist at the time so I understand its inclusion. But...come on, White Pony? And while we're at it, Lateralus? I'm doing the list chronologically and I'm 360 albums in and still in 1976. It feels like everything past about y2k or so is really phoned in.

I love how thorough this book is for older music. But...uh...yeah, it bugs me how many artists are way, way overrepresented (NEIL FRIGGIN YOUNG) while lots of the amazing albums that were staples of my youth/adolescence (90s/00s) are completely absent or overlooked. At least Stereolab made the list somehow.

No They Might Be Giants album is kinda wild to me personally. Maybe just cause I’m a huge fan but they are such a unique, fun band, their albums Flood or Lincoln could easily be on the list over another of Elvis Costellos or more ubiquitous British rock.

And when you rate all 17 low, someone here will still suggest you listen to one that’s not on the list, because *that* one will make you an Elvis Costello fan. Not that I’m speaking from experience or anything…

I think there's a lot of 90s stuff that shouldn't be on the list. Even albums that I like. HmS fable by Shack was a fun listen, but you can't tell me it should be on a list of the 1001 albums you should hear before you die. Brit pop was massive but it's over represented for sure

There's a lot of stuff that should be there and isn't, and vice versa. In any case, I think lots of people underestimate just how big Bawditidaba was at the time. Deftones were popular, but that Kid Rock album was _big_.

Ultimately my conclusion will be that there are, in fact, *not* 1001 albums that anyone needs to hear before they're done. 500 was probably quite a good number picked by Rolling Stone!

I’d argue the difference is all of Elvis Costello’s albums sound pretty much the same! Neil Young and Bowie can certainly not be accused of that.

I love the absurdity of the lyric "I will never say the word 'procrastinate' again / I'll never see myself in the mirror with my eyes closed." (From the song Dead.) Every so often I find myself singing this, so many years later! TMBG was a huge influence in the late 80s, but maybe that's overshadowed by their kids' Disney albums??? (I actually like these too.)

Hello! I’m on my mobile so I am sorry if the formatting isn’t great. My fiancé has nearly finished this project (so much fun!) and I thought that it would be nice to buy him a copy of the most recent book to celebrate. Annoyingly, in the UK the 2021 edition is only available for several hundred pounds. Does anyone know where I could find a reasonably priced, up to date copy? Thank you in advance!

Several hundred pounds. That's crazy! I guess you had a look at Amazon?  I've also noticed it can be hard to find the most recent edition.  While i understand it might feel better to buy the most recent i would probably just try to find an older version at a cheaper price.  No matter which version you get it still won't have all albums that's in the generator as it's using albums from all editions.  And the 10 albums added in each version are very hit and miss anyway, so they'll most likely be removed in the next.

£399 and another at £880 for a second hand for the 2021 version off of abe and Amazon respectively! Thank you for your reply. I was leaning towards a nicer copy of an earlier version but just wanted to double check that I wasn’t missing something obvious as I was not expecting the latest update to be so in demand! Cheers :)

Back in the days before streaming it was one that had always intrigued me on the CD shop shelves. But I ended up buying it purely on the strength of one song: The Book Of Love. My now-wife put the Peter Gabriel cover on the first mix CD she ever made me and it immediately became one of my favourite songs of all time. (If you’re not familiar, please do go and check it out. PG absolutely nails it.) I love this one for its scope and ambition but I also came to the realisation after a couple of plays that it wasn’t, as I had assumed, 69 songs about love. It’s 69 songs about *the love song* as an art form. Which is why it’s proudly packed with clichés and covers so many different genres and angles. Sometimes I like *the idea of* a concept album better than I actually like listening to it. But Stephen Merritt is so damn good a songwriter and the execution is brilliant, so this is one I also really really like listening to. Even if it does take 3 hours.

It's a very good album but man do I wish it had be cut down to a single disc. 3+ hours is a lot to digest and some songs are definitely stronger than others. Take the 20 or best songs and it would have such a strong album. Having said that, I do admire the ambition of this project and the variety of styles present.

FWIW I think you’re an album early on your ‘Fuck Coldplay’ arc but I don’t actually know which of their albums are on the list so I guess you had to grab that chance when it came. (I avoid reading the full list to maintain some feeling of surprise each day). Parachutes and Rush of Blood are great records, it’s X&Y where they started to sell out and disappear up their own arses.

2024-26-08
The Wall is undoubtedly a great album. Even more clearly, an impressively important album. But whether you find yourself loving this record or not vibing with it at all, to me one of the very best things about this album is being able to form an opinion on it. It’s a divisive and prickly record and can lead to discussions of a similar manner. But what’s also true is there is tons of nuance to this album too. (FWIW, I think a decent chunk of this album is spectacular. The remainder I really think is an obnoxious waste of runtime lol. The Wall generally sits behind Dark Side, WYWH, Animals, and sometimes Meddle on my Pink Floyd ranking)
