3/5
Radiohead’s less talented younger cousin.
Pink Floyd
4/5
Roger Waters is the man.
Earth, Wind & Fire
3/5
Kinda dentist officey.
Jefferson Airplane
1/5
Two relatively decent 60’s classics, the rest was surprisingly bad.
Ella Fitzgerald
3/5
Ministry
3/5
Fun 90s metal
The Fall
3/5
Not bad, kind of like Gang of Four with slightly less interesting lyrics.
The Pogues
1/5
It seemed listenable until the “Spanish” number. Oof.
Bill Evans Trio
4/5
Classic
Slayer
2/5
If there were half stars I’d give this a 2.5. Not my thing but I can see why people like it.
Tracy Chapman
4/5
Lots of classics on here, very solid complete album.
Stevie Wonder
3/5
Eh, except for Higher Ground
Public Enemy
4/5
911 is still a joke 35 years later.
The Black Crowes
3/5
If somebody gave me a free ticket to a Black Crowes show and I didn’t have anything to do early the next morning, I’d go. But I wouldn’t go out of my way for it.
Terence Trent D'Arby
1/5
47 minutes and 8 seconds of my life, wasted.
Björk
3/5
3.5. A bit restrained by Björk standards, which actually makes it an easier one to listen all the way through.
CHVRCHES
2/5
2.5. It’s incredibly bland and forgettable, maybe it was designed to be?
OutKast
3/5
Clever lyrics, made me laugh.
Kanye West
2/5
I expected it to be awful but it was more just sad, especially the song with Nicky Minaj and the one after. Some people really can’t handle getting famous.
Willie Colón & Rubén Blades
3/5
Did you know Ruben Blades was Minister of Tourism in Panama?
The B-52's
4/5
This album made me think about the cringey tell-all novel Outline of My Lover and how much cooler it would have been if the 1990’s Athens GA indie Star had been Fred from B-52s.
Public Enemy
4/5
I had never heard A Letter to the New York Post before and therefore incorrectly assumed that Lin Manuel Miranda was the first person to rap about Alexander Hamilton
Jack White
3/5
Eh
Kanye West
1/5
Should have stayed in college.
Germs
1/5
Before this project I’d never used the phrase “boring punk album”, but here we are.
Lucinda Williams
2/5
When I started this project a friend told me his theory that people mostly like music associated with happy memories. This album debunks that for me because it does remind me of it playing at a beloved former workplace but I still don’t really like it.
R.E.M.
5/5
One of my all-time favorites.
Van Halen
3/5
3.5 really, this one is fun.
Yes
2/5
2.5 My husband says there’s no such thing as a bad prog rock band. Yes isn’t bad.
Fiona Apple
2/5
Musically I didn’t mind it but Fiona Apple sounds like a terrible dinner party companion.
Coldplay
3/5
I had a copy of this when it first came out and still only remember the first few songs, the end really drags.
Incredible Bongo Band
1/5
What in the everloving fuck was this and why would anyone think it should be listened to before I die?
The Black Keys
2/5
2.5. It’s Tighten Up and an hour or so of other stuff that sounds the same.
Neil Young & Crazy Horse
5/5
Neil Young and ketchup potato chips are the two best things Canada produced in the 20th century.
David Bowie
5/5
What’s not to love?
Prince
5/5
Prince was a genius, gone too soon.
The Blue Nile
4/5
Never heard of it but quite good 80s synth pop.
The Doors
5/5
4.75 because even though I wore out this album back in high school, Land Ho is unforgivably stupid.
David Bowie
3/5
Surprised by how meh I thought this one was.
Machito
3/5
Like a tiki bar in my ears.
Mekons
1/5
After reading that the Mekons went to school with Gang of Four I can only assume that this 1980’s art college had frequent battle of the bands contests and GofF needed a Washington Generals to their Harlem Globetrotters.
Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five
2/5
I thought I would like this more than I did.
The Beach Boys
4/5
This one has held up well.
The Strokes
3/5
Not bad but not very memorable.
Fela Kuti
3/5
3.5 good solid album.
Talvin Singh
2/5
Interesting story, boring music
Randy Newman
1/5
With some of the albums in this project I don’t personally enjoy them, but I can see why other people would. This isn’t one of those albums.
The Smiths
3/5
Not my favorite Smiths album, most of the tracks sound like filler/B sides to me.
Sade
1/5
Sade is music for a PG-rated implied sex montage.
Ride
2/5
Calling this album shoegaze made me reflect on how boring it is to stare at your shoes, is that the point?
D'Angelo
2/5
The best thing about this album was that it reminded me of the old Smoove B columns in the Onion. The worst thing was that I went to use Apple Pay in the Amtrak cafe car with the album visible on my Home Screen and the attendant looked judgey.
Don McLean
2/5
Bye bye indeed.
The Who
5/5
I hadn’t realized just how many classics there are on this album.
Creedence Clearwater Revival
5/5
It’s always a roadtrip when CCR is on.
Taylor Swift
2/5
I admire Tay Tay as a businesswoman but wow is she a sad sack.
Hookworms
3/5
Pleasantly surprised by this one. The vocals were meh but overall the sound was pretty interesting.
Gotan Project
4/5
Pretty good!
Michael Jackson
5/5
I don’t think anyone who was alive in the 80s could listen to this album without dancing like a fool.
The Smashing Pumpkins
3/5
Fun fact: Being John Malkovich was originally supposed to be Being Billy Corgan but he only wanted to film the scenes in the universe where every character was him.
Iggy Pop
3/5
I’d never actually listened to an Iggy Pop album all the way through before. Now I have.
The Undertones
2/5
There goes Norman, indeed.
Echo And The Bunnymen
4/5
Pretty good classic new wave.
Amy Winehouse
4/5
This one has held up pretty well.
Billy Joel
2/5
Only the Good Die Young is probably Matt Gaetz’s favorite karaoke song.
Dwight Yoakam
2/5
Dwight Yoakam is chicken fried Billy Joel.
Various Artists
4/5
Wonderful except for the Phil Spector monologue at the end, yikes.
Simple Minds
2/5
So uh I guess this is one of Bono’s favorite albums. How bout that.
Beatles
5/5
One of the great albums of the 20ty century.
Funkadelic
3/5
3.5, in a cosmic way
Skepta
2/5
Oh look a British rapper
Bad Brains
4/5
DC punk royalty.
Christina Aguilera
2/5
2.5. I admire that Christina Aguliera wrote her own songs for this album and included positive messages and topics important to her. But the music is really boring.
5/5
Can’t go wrong with Ziggy Stardust.
Pixies
4/5
Hadn’t listened to the whole album before. Solid.
Robert Wyatt
3/5
Not shuper, but not shhitty either.
Kid Rock
1/5
Why have Homo sapiens prevailed on this planet over more intelligent species? This album will make you see to contemplate that.
Muddy Waters
4/5
Muddy Waters - full grown man!
Keith Jarrett
3/5
3.5, not bad but wouldn’t put it on repeat.
Garbage
2/5
2.5. I can see why occasionally they pop up on 90s compilations but otherwise I haven’t thought of them for thirty years.
The Kinks
3/5
This is how I imagine the pitch meeting for this album:
Ray: Hey I got a pile of charming McCartneyish ditties about working class daily life.
Record exec: You’re contractually obligated to include one sorta psychedelic mumble about the sun.
Ray: (drag on a rollie; slurp of tea) Ok but it will suck.
Dizzee Rascal
1/5
Terrible.
Aretha Franklin
4/5
4.5, lots of classics on this one.
John Coltrane
5/5
Coltrane never disappoints.
N.W.A.
3/5
3.5. I want to get a time machine to introduce the Ice Cube on this album to Ice Cube now and see what happens.
The Specials
3/5
Ok if you like that sort of thing.
Jungle Brothers
3/5
Like the message, the music could be better.

3.5, atmospheric AF but I wouldn’t listen to it again.
David Holmes
3/5
Forgettable.
Otis Redding
5/5
Excellent day for it.
The Rolling Stones
3/5
You Can’t Always Get What You Want, assuming what you want is other good songs on the album. And you also can’t convince me Jagger ever stepped foot in a honky tonk.
Beck
4/5
Que onda indeed, Beck.
Digital Underground
3/5
Surprisingly funny.
Sister Sledge
2/5
Oh yay, disco. Thanks.

4/5
Dumb album name but I like it otherwise.
Meat Puppets
4/5
Where do bad folks go when they die?
New Order
3/5
Old Order was better.
David Bowie
4/5
He was thin. He was white.

Generic classic rock.

5/5

The Fall
3/5
The nation is in peril if this is its saving grace.
The Stranglers
2/5

4/5
Oh lord, CCR again!

4/5
More timely tunes.
Aretha Franklin
4/5

2/5
Better than unalive Dead.
Willie Nelson
3/5
I’ve heard worse.
Amy Winehouse
4/5
Shoulda gone to rehab.
Small Faces
2/5
This sounds like a parody of a 60’d Brit rock album.
Hole
4/5
Go on take everything, I dare you to.
Tortoise
2/5
This was like a soundtrack to a movie I’d forget about as soon as I left the theater.
Bob Marley & The Wailers
4/5
A hungry mob is an angry mob.
Iggy Pop
4/5
Fun.
Blondie
3/5
A gas.

4/5
Solid 90’s.
Solomon Burke
3/5
Solid.
Radiohead
5/5
Just cause you feel it doesn’t mean it’s there.
The Kinks
2/5
Oh dear, this was dumb.
Fela Kuti
3/5
I enjoyed it but more as background music.
Adele
3/5
3.5, some classics on here but it dragged.
Dirty Projectors
2/5
Boring Brooklyn hipster noise.
The Velvet Underground
5/5
You’re a bore but in that you’re not charmless
Metallica
4/5
Can’t go wrong with classic Metallica when the situation is right (and when isn’t it?)
Incubus
1/5
A YouTube commenter said this album helped him detox from fentanyl so at least it did something worthwhile for someone.
The Chemical Brothers
2/5
Better than Incubus, which isn’t saying much.
Elton John
4/5
Good job, Sir Elton
Beck
5/5
Where it’s at, indeed
Oasis
2/5
More boring than I remembered.
The Yardbirds
2/5
Dull
Beatles
4/5
4.5, not my favorite Beatles album but still a great one.
Dexys Midnight Runners
2/5
I see why they were a one hit wonder, too loo rye at.
Leonard Cohen
5/5
Timely
George Harrison
5/5
My sweet George
Supergrass
2/5
I had never heard of this band and I can see why.
Elvis Costello & The Attractions
2/5
If “meh”was a person it would be Elvis Costello.
Crosby, Stills & Nash
3/5
3.5. Solid, but they needed Neil.
Jeff Buckley
2/5
I didn’t like this album in the 90s and I don’t like it now.
Steely Dan
1/5
This was even worse than I thought it would be.
Elvis Costello & The Attractions
2/5
I didn’t like the Elvis Costello album I got two days ago and I don’t like this one either.

3/5
3.5. A few great songs, a bit of filler.
Doves
2/5
I forgot this album even while I was listening to it.
ZZ Top
2/5
🎅🏼
Fleetwood Mac
2/5
You know the Fleetwood Mac album with all their songs that get stuck in your head? It isn’t this one.
Madonna
4/5
It’s wild to me that Madonna used to be considered a bad influence on girls, I want every teenager I know to howl along to Express Yourself.
The Dandy Warhols
3/5
Not terrible, but not a hidden gem either.
Stevie Wonder
3/5
The Who
3/5
They got around but that’s no reason to put them down.
The Doors
3/5
Not their best.
Syd Barrett
3/5
Not bad, Syd.
Emerson, Lake & Palmer
3/5
Score is mostly for the cover art.
JAY Z
3/5
It’s no wonder Beyoncé became a cowboy because her husband has been one of America’s largest producers of beef for decades.
The Killers
3/5
Mr. Brightside and songs that sound like Mr. Brightside. Not bad.
Led Zeppelin
3/5
Never much of a Zeppelin fan but I see why this one is a classic.
Carole King
3/5
The story of this album is inspirational but it also kind of sounds like someone singing 70s pop hits on karaoke night.
The United States Of America
2/5
Weird, not in a charming way.
Def Leppard
3/5
It wasn’t awful but the fact that Pour Some Sugar on Me wasn’t on here suggests that we have more Def Leppard coming and I’m not sure we need that.
Neil Young
2/5
I like Neil Young but I have no idea why this particular album made the list.
Bob Dylan
5/5
No notes.
The Band
2/5
Well, it is what it is.
The Smiths
4/5
I know, I know, it’s really serious.
The War On Drugs
2/5
2.5. No wonder America lost the War on Drugs when it’s this forgettable.
Beatles
5/5
Can’t go wrong with Rubber Soul.
Queen Latifah
3/5
Three stars because I admire Queen Latifah as a celebrity, but this is pretty weak.
Neil Young & Crazy Horse
2/5
Not Neil’s finest.
Ice T
3/5
And now he’s been on Law and Order for decades.
Miles Davis
4/5
Solid, like all Miles Davis.
Joan Baez
3/5
Here’s the thing about Joan Baez: a lot of her music is too warbly for me but I absolutely love her, she’s 84 and out there strumming her guitar at protests while Tay Tay sits on her private beach and feels sorry for herself and Beyoncé stuffs hats with hundred dollar bills or whatever she does for fun.
Charles Mingus
4/5
I forget about Charles Mingus sometimes and I shouldn’t.
Little Richard
3/5
A fun bop.
Deep Purple
1/5
Oof.
Nirvana
5/5
I’m a kid again. A 90s grunge kid.
Kate Bush

Solid.
5/5
U2 is kind of a joke now, it’s nice to remember when people took them seriously.

More fun than I thought it would be.
Steely Dan
1/5
I’m never going to have time for this.
Ananda Shankar
2/5

4/5
I mean, who doesn’t wanna be your dog?
The Beach Boys
3/5
RIP Brian Wilson but this wasn’t their finest work.
Lauryn Hill
4/5
Classic, too bad everyone expected more after that.
Joni Mitchell
4/5
A little Joni can go a long way but this one is solid.
Brian Wilson
3/5
3.5. Good music, really stupid lyrics.
Frank Sinatra
3/5
Sinatra made better.
Eminem
4/5
“ He's rapping about big-screen TV's, blunts, 40's and bitches
You're rapping about homosexuals and Vicodin.”
T. Rex
2/5
It improves it to picture the whole thing as a concept album - the wedding of two uninteresting people, all feathered hair and dancing the hustle slightly off beat, then the purchase of a split level with shag carpeting that always smells of cigarette smoke and mold, the birth of their lumpen offspring and a montage of school pictures with closed eyes and crooked teeth, the divorce, the awkward reunion in the Tab aisle of Safeway.
Haircut 100
2/5
In a world full of unmemorable albums this one really doesn’t stand out.
The Rolling Stones
3/5
You can’t always get what you want. For example, I thought this was the album with that song and I didn’t get it.
Q-Tip
2/5
Eh
Elliott Smith
4/5
A mopey classic.
Willie Nelson
2/5
Willie Nelson seems like a cool guy in person but all I can think about this album is that he got really high and rode the elevator up and down singing along to the Muzak.
Motörhead
2/5
Böring
808 State
2/5
My body was in my office but my ears were on an unsatisfying long weekend in Ibiza.
The Louvin Brothers

Sam Cooke
4/5
So talented, gone too soon.
Nick Drake
4/5
Good album for a very humid day.
Isaac Hayes
3/5
I can’t believe it’s not better.
Drive-By Truckers
2/5
Store brand Lynard Skynard
The Cure
3/5
I like the Cure but if this album made the list there are probably about sixteen others to come.
Frank Zappa
3/5
Frank Zappa as a public figure was interesting. This album, not so much.
The Velvet Underground
5/5
I’m a teenager at the record store again whenever I hear this album.
The Modern Lovers
4/5
I’m in love with Massachusetts.
Booker T. & The MG's
3/5
Cocteau Twins
4/5
Fun.

UB40
2/5
This was barely UB30
Black Sabbath
4/5
RIP, Ozzy
The Damned
3/5
More like the Darned, straight outta heck
Eagles
4/5
One of those albums I’m never mad to see.
Radiohead
4/5
This is my third favorite Radiohead album which should say something about my opinion of Radiohead.
Bert Jansch
3/5
Now I’ve listened to Bert Jansch.
Caetano Veloso
3/5
Yup that’s Brazilian!
Maxwell
2/5
Bang bang Maxwell’s urban hang suite came down.

The best Door album.
Pulp
3/5
Two really good songs and a lot of filler.
Yeah Yeah Yeahs
3/5
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Mott The Hoople
3/5
Not even the one with All the Young Dudes, just twelve other songs that sound like it.
Radiohead
5/5
And still only the second greatest Radiohead album.
AC/DC
3/5
I wouldn’t call it good, but it’s fun
Dire Straits
3/5
The Band
3/5
I love The Last Waltz but I didn’t need the extended studio album here.
Pink Floyd
5/5
Miles Davis
5/5
Can’t beat Miles Davis
The Temptations
4/5
I heard that this is pretty decent, but where did I hear that? Somewhere involving fruit.
Stan Getz
4/5
The bossas of nova.
Shivkumar Sharma
4/5
Unfortunately I’ve only heard this album in Indian restaurants. That’s my fault, not the album’s.
The Verve
2/5
I forgot about The Verve until this album came up and now I can go back to forgetting them.
The Monks
3/5
Never heard of it.
Snoop Dogg
4/5
Four stars for being a great dog walking album.
The Cure
3/5
This is barely even the remedy, let alone the Cure.
Thin Lizzy
2/5
Yeah ok I guess.
Radiohead
4/5
I saw this mashed up with a Buster Keaton movie once and now it’s all I can think of.
Jeru The Damaja
1/5
Wikipedia is really stretching by mentioning this guy in the same article as Wu Tang and Biggie.
Gorillaz
3/5
I’ve got sunshine in a bag.
Sigur Rós
3/5
Yup, that’s Icelandic.
John Lennon
5/5

2/5
This album only reinforced my opinion that Elvis Costello is the most boring of Elvii.
Foo Fighters
4/5
Their best album
Fleetwood Mac
4/5
Stevie was right to go her own way. Anything without her drags it down.
Prince
4/5
4.5. A little filler toward the end but solid classics on here.
Eels
2/5
I forgot about this album while I was listening to it.
Run-D.M.C.
3/5
They walked before they could run on several songs but still enjoyable.
Roni Size
2/5
Whatever club played this probably served watery drinks.
Nas
4/5
Listening to today’s album reminds me that the authors of the 1001 project owe the greats of 90’s East Coast rap an apology for that Jeru the Damaja album we got a few weeks ago.
Wilco
3/5
Wilco is meh.
The Electric Prunes
1/5
There was a bus barreling down the road at me and I found myself thinking, what if I got hit and they had to use my phone to try to find my next of kin and discovered that the last thing I listened to was The Toonerville Trolley by the Electric Prunes?
Throwing Muses
4/5
Rhode Island! ⚓️
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
2/5
Maybe I’d rate this higher if it came along at a better time but I can’t imagine when that time would come.
The Dave Brubeck Quartet
5/5
Classic
Fiona Apple
4/5
She never quite got there again but this album holds up.
The Only Ones
2/5
Good thing the band name is misleading.
ABBA
3/5
Three stars for the unwanted but powerful ear worms.
Culture Club
3/5
Karma karma karma karma karma chameleooooonnn/and other songs/and other soooooonghggggs
Parliament
4/5
Everyone got the funk when this album is on.
Yes
4/5
Music to pick bellybutton lint to.
The Stooges
4/5
I don’t think the Stooges pictured themselves as making commuting music but it works pretty well.
Elvis Presley
4/5
I would never dream of stepping on his blue suede shoes.
Miles Davis
5/5
Can’t beat Miles Davis
