If this album is on this list then Cats should have won an Oscar and Vladimir Putin awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

The Colour Of Spring

Talk Talk

Everyone working their way through this project loves music. And everyone who loves music has an album that means more to them than the rest. And this one is mine. I got into Talk Talk when I heard their single 'Life's What you Make It', which reached Number 16 in the UK charts in November 1985. The two singles vying for the Number 1 spot at the time were the theme to Miami Vice by Jan Hammer and 'We Built this City' by Starship. No offence to Jan Hammer and Starship, but those fun tunes never left 1985. Thirty-eight years later Talk Talk's Colour of Spring still feels as fresh as, well, spring I suppose. When I first heard it I didn't fully understand it - and I still don't fully understand it. It feels different with each listen. A true work of art.

From Elvis In Memphis

Elvis Presley

Elvis has been one of the most surprising things I've learned from the list so far. Once you get past the hype and the stagecraft, his albums are truly dreadful. He slurs and lurches through this one, sounding just like the tuneless, aging barflies I've heard.imitate him a thousand times. No amount of hammy howling can give these songs any soul and his lyrics die the moment they leave his ludicrously curled lips. Music for annoying drunks.

From Elvis In Memphis

Elvis Presley

Elvis has been one of the most surprising things I've learned from the list so far. Once you get past the hype and the stagecraft, his albums are truly dreadful. He slurs and lurches through this one, sounding just like the tuneless, aging barflies I've heard.imitate him a thousand times. No amount of hammy howling can give these songs any soul and his lyrics die the moment they leave his ludicrously curled lips. Music for annoying drunks.

Emergency On Planet Earth

Jamiroquai

I've taken some time to rate this album. The more I think about Jamiroquai the lower the rating goes. I'm now at a 3. As the music receded, I'm left considering a silly little white guy singing black music, dressed as a native American and preaching environmental messages from behind the wheel of a gas-guzzling supercar. In a few hours I'll probably regret rating it so highly and I'll have to console myself with the memory of the time that photographer broke Jay Kay's nose with an epic headbutt.

They should have taken themselves more seriously. I think their silly band name and their 'quirky' biggest hit (King of Rock n Roll - not on this album) ultimately made them seem like a gimmick and detracted from their talents. I'm pleasantly surprised by this album.

The Colour Of Spring

Talk Talk

Everyone working their way through this project loves music. And everyone who loves music has an album that means more to them than the rest. And this one is mine. I got into Talk Talk when I heard their single 'Life's What you Make It', which reached Number 16 in the UK charts in November 1985. The two singles vying for the Number 1 spot at the time were the theme to Miami Vice by Jan Hammer and 'We Built this City' by Starship. No offence to Jan Hammer and Starship, but those fun tunes never left 1985. Thirty-eight years later Talk Talk's Colour of Spring still feels as fresh as, well, spring I suppose. When I first heard it I didn't fully understand it - and I still don't fully understand it. It feels different with each listen. A true work of art.

The Libertines

I remember going to one of the last Libertines gig in Camden in 2004. It was in a tent out the back of an art gallery. They were jeered by some of the crowd as they shambled through their set. "Once a Libertine, always a Libertine!" shouted one of their hangers-on. The band split up about a week later. As I walked home in the rain there was a junkie screaming for his mother in a phone box outside the tube station. The Libertines is like skipping the all-night bender and just going straight to waking up in a puddle of your own vomit.

David Ackles

Who's the luckiest man in the music industry? I know. You're thinking Ringo, right? Wrong. The Beatles wouldn't have been the Beatles without him. The luckiest man in the music biz is Bernie Taupin. For some reason he has made a career out of setting laughably bad lyrics to Elton John tunes. Check out the nonsense of Yellow Brick Road. And then he produces this crap and it somehow makes this list. It's a bloody travesty.

Malcolm McLaren

What people might not appreciate in 2024 is that ideas traveled much more slowly in 1983. It took people like Malcolm McLaren to go out and find new material and then encourge musicians to experiment with it. And what exciting ideas he discovered. This album shows the enthusiasm and consideration with which MM undertook the task - very different from the algorithmic fire hyrant of randomness and cat videos that replaced him.

D.O.A. the Third and Final Report of Throbbing Gristle

Throbbing Gristle

This album caught me in the right mood. I was all ready to join the pile on, but then I discovered it was a fascinating listen. I found myself groping for images to accompany each track in a way few, if any, albums on this list have made me do. I loved the garbled voices on Hometime and Valley of the Shadow of Death - so evocative of 1970s Britain - which may be lost on many listeners. It's not an album I'll return to frequently, but I'm amazed to say I'll be back. In a list of 1000 albums there should be at least one the goes down this path to explore the limits of the medium.

John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band

John Lennon

Having listened to all their first solo albums, it's clear that George Harrison thrived after the Beatles. Lennon, by contrast, was a mess and that's reflected in his music here. Only the track Love has any appeal to me, and would fit better on his far superior second solo album. I feel sympathy for anyone who had to deal with Lennon at this time - except Yoko Ono of course.
