In The Court Of The Crimson King

King Crimson

3/5

Album 1/1001. Listened 1/6/2026. A little too stoner rock for me. 3/5 on a good day.

The Wall

Pink Floyd

4/5

Album 2/1001. Listened 1/7/2026. The whole thing is an experience not to be forgotten. I don't love every minute of it, but I can listen to it again and again and enjoy it.

Deja Vu

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

5/5

Album 3/1001. Listened 1/8/2026. Just beautiful melodies and harmonies and guitar licks. Can't listen to Teach Your Children without tearing up.

Stankonia

OutKast

2/5

Alum 4/1001. Listened 1/9/2026. Not my favorite genre, but I'm glad I listened to it.

Bookends

Simon & Garfunkel

4/5

Album 5/1001. Listened 1/12/2026. So many songs I know by heart. Can't say I love every single one of them; I never ever need to hear Voices of Old People again - like listening to Congress.

In Utero

Nirvana

4/5

Album 6/1001. Listened 1/13/2026. Classic 90s grunge rock. The rage and the rock can't be beat. I didn't love each song, but I would definitely play it again.

All Hail the Queen

Queen Latifah

3/5

Album 7/1001. Listened 1/14/2026. So impressed by a woman rapping with men. Not my favorite genre but some of the songs I’d listen to again. Plus she’s the Queen.

Oracular Spectacular

MGMT

3/5

Album 8/1001. Listened 1/16/2026. I enjoyed some of the tracks; some I actually even knew! Not a genre I tend to listen to, but I liked the album overall.

Odelay

Beck

5/5

Album 9/1001. Listened 1/19/2026. Truly an original. Could listen to this all day.

Tracy Chapman

4/5

Album 11/1001. Listened 1/20/2026. Such beautiful songwriting and singing. Definitely a sad album, but in a beautiful way.

Logical Progression

LTJ Bukem

2/5

It’s long and it’s weird. Like a gummy worm.

Licensed To Ill

Beastie Boys

5/5

Album 12/1001. Listened 1/22/2026. Classic. Does not get much better than this.

Kick Out The Jams (Live)

MC5

3/5

Album 13/1001. Listened 1/30/2026. It's ok, probably a little too stoner rock for me, but could listen to it in the background.

This Year's Model

Elvis Costello & The Attractions

4/5

Album 14/1001. Listened 1/30/2026. Knew more songs than I thought I did, and enjoyed quite a few. Not my favorite but I can listen to it.

My Aim Is True

Elvis Costello

4/5

Album 15/1001. Listened 2/2/2026 - Groundhog Day! Again, I knew more songs than I thought I would, and really enjoyed the ones I didn't know.

Machine Gun Etiquette

The Damned

2/5

Album 16/1001. Listened 2/9/2026. It's ok, a bit too stoner jam rock for me. There are a few licks that clearly got sampled by other artists, which is cool. Definitely not an album I'll listen to again.

Immigrés

Youssou N'Dour

4/5

Album 17/1001. Listened 2/11/2026. I liked this much more than I expected. Loved the world beats, which isn't usually my thing. I'd play this to get through a workday or on a road trip or just hanging out.

Close To You

Carpenters

3/5

Album 18/1001. Listened 2/13/2026. Some classics on here, and really interesting to hear the originals that others have covered, but definitely not my genre. (I really did like this version of Reason to Believe.) Can't argue with their talent, but not my favorite album.
