This is awful boring rock. Was going to go 2 stars till the song Now I’m Everyone which just repeats what sounds like “This is a one” over and over. And so this is!

Jimmy Buffett

3/5

49 years and 10 months-that’s how long it took me to listen to an actual Jimmy Buffet album. It was way more country than I expected. And better. Which is not to say I’d seek this out again, but I didn’t mind it

Kick

INXS

5/5

Like many other reviewers I just can’t believe this album isn’t on the original list. They’re really telling me we needed multiple Tim Buckley albums and they didn’t put INXS Kick on there? That’s crazy. This is a great album

Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum

Tally Hall

3/5

Me: “AI- create an album by an imaginary band using the following prompts ‘Imagine if Weezer cover band tried to make something that sounded like Sgt. Peppers. But also make it sound like the band Barenaked Ladies somehow.’” AI: “processing…processing. Done. Please enjoy Marvin’s Marvelous Mechanical Museum by Tally Hall” Me (after listening): “It’s not bad but AI has long way to go before it can replace real music”

Pony Express Record

Shudder To Think

One of the first albums on the fan list that I had not heard but genuinely liked. It’s very weird and very 1990s

3/5

I really do not like progressive rock. And I really did not expect to like this at all, but I really didn’t mind this period especially side one. I’d almost go to four stars but I think I have to stick with three

As a Gen Xer, I have to say I really like this album. It was very very 90s. That manic sort of drawing on all sorts of influences. The ska, The Rock. All of it. I didn’t know this before but this was a great addition

Comfort To Me

Amyl and The Sniffers

3/5

John Dawson Winter III

Johnny Winter

3/5

Not essential but totally enjoyable

Discosis

Bran Van 3000

3/5

I never heard of this. First thing I thought this was some weird Curtis Mayfield sounding cover band. Then I realized it was Curtis Mayfield. This was fun. Not flawless by any means. But I enjoyed it and will check out the rest of their discography

I appreciate that this is something new, but it’s also really boring

The Pros and Cons of Hitch Hiking

Roger Waters

4/5

I like Pink Floyd. But I hate “The Wall” And this is a really shitty version of the wall. It’s almost incomprehensible to me that so many songs should sound exactly the same. It was just boring

Hand. Cannot. Erase.

I appreciate the effort but not my fav

The Shape Of Jazz To Come

Ornette Coleman

5/5

A glaring omission from the original list. But hey, there was so much rando electronica that they just had to include. If you are going to title an album “The Shape of Jazz to Come” you’d better deliver. And boy does this

The Monitor

Titus Andronicus

3/5

It’s okay

Boxer

The National

4/5

People

The Burning Hell

4/5

This album was really great. It’s really no small feat to be able to craft lyrics that witty and self-referential without seeming like you’re trying too hard or you’re just kind of an asshole. And they really do it here they thread that threaded that needle. It wasn’t world changing. I’m not going to go with five stars but it was a solid four for me

Yeti

The Best of The Hot 5 & Hot 7 Recordings

Louis Armstrong

5/5

Normally I would mark something down for not being a real “album” but in this case there’s nothing to be done about it. It’s amazing to think that these songs were recorded closer to the Civil War than they were today! Obviously the audio quality on some of them is better than others, but they’re so important to the history of American music. And many people have highlighted the real weakness this list has for jazz albums. I certainly don’t expect that this thing would be littered with jazz, it’s definitely a niche genre at this point, but instead of having 17 PJ Harvey albums they probably could’ve put one album by the singularly most important musician of early recorded music
