1001 Albums Summary

Day 1 Miles Davis does not disappoint. Really, this just goes to show how PHENOMENAL jazz is 😫 Fav track: In a Silent Way

Day 2 Some really frickin great tracks in here. Side A is perfect and Side B has some great (not life-changing tracks). Really amazing moments in the weaker tracks sort of keep it in pendulum. Fav track: Foreplay/Long Time EDIT: Yeah, I was being stingy, this is a five

Day 3 Hg made an album so perfect she stopped right there 😭 Fav track: Ex-Factor

Day 4 I feel like a Texan father of three after this. It's aight. Some songs are actually pretty good, some just blend together Fav track: Jesus Just Left Chicago

Day 5 I feel disoriented but like in a chill way Fav track: A Forest

Day 6 This gets better with time and that's a fact. See what I did there? TIME? No? I'm sorry Fav track: Us and Them

Day 7 Bro to everyone clowning on 80s conscious hip-hop, you're straight clowns frfr Fav tracks: Black Steel in the Hour of Chaos, Don't Believe the Hype, Night of the Living Baseheads, Rebel Without a Pause, Prophets of Rage

Day 8 If this is meant to be one of his best, I'm not ecstatic for the five more Elvis Costello albums... Fav track: Accidents Will Happen

Day 9 "Oi Keith, what if we pretended to be American for a while?" "Sounds good to me, Mick" Fav track: Rocks Off

Day 10 Bro this shit is funner than I ever thought it'd be. Not the biggest fan of glam rock but put aside the "WE LOVE ROCK AND ROLL 🎸🎸🎸" shit and what's left is honestly good. 3.6/5 so I'll round up to four stars Fav track: Photograph

Day 11 To my Kid A fans, Morning Bell/Amnesiac haters are invited to the club. Fav track: Life in a Glasshouse

Day 12 I'm sorry Street Life my precious but the rest of the album is way too subdued for you to share room with them :( Fav track: Street Life

Day 13 Nas released Illmatic at 20 and wrote these songs as a teen. What the hell are WE doing with our lives? Fav track: Represent

Day 14 What is it with these albums that start so strong and then dive down in keeping my attention lmao Fav track: Negative Space

Day 15 Me, this morning: "A double album from 1972 I never heard of? Fine, just get this shit over with." As it turns out, I did not want to get that shit over with. Fav track: Hello It's Me

Day 16 Can you believe the youth of my day is forgetting about Parliament/Funkadelic? That's funked up. Fav track: Mothership Connection (Star Child)

Day 17 Some really good musicianship held back by goofy ass lyrics and being too samey Fav track: Humiliation Street

Day 18 Three beautiful voices that say a lot in under 40 minutes. RIP Dolly, we will always love you 🩷 Fav track: Those Memories of You

Day 19 Somehow enjoying this album means you're both pretentious and a normie. I agree Fav track: Day of the Lords

Day 20 Line number one Line number two Final line before the title of the song *Harmonica solo* Fav track: Mr. Tambourine Man

Day 21 As an ex-avid Kanye fan, Yeezus doesn't hold up as much as I remember. Anyways, whoever's reading this, wanna get smth to drink? 😏 Fav track: New Slaves

Day 22 Faron Young had me fearful but it slowly redeems itself. Not entirely. Another case of a frontloaded start. Fav track: When Love Breaks Down

Day 23 What the fuck was Seattle putting in their water in the 90s? Fav track: Black

Day 24 I don't wanna know what the fuck San Fran put in their water in 1967 Fav track: Martha Lorraine

Day 25 Am I tearing up? A good British album that maintains its solid quality the whole time? Thank you, generator 🥹 Fav track: A Design for Life

Day 26 This is Sheer Heart Attack for the class clowns Fav track: Baron Samedi

Day 27 I reckon Coldplay has probably saved someone's life Fav track: Trouble

Day 28 I've been a fan of Gorillaz for 7 years and somehow haven't listened to Blur other than Parklife until now. Huge mistake on my part. I know I would've loved this then but fortunately, I do now Fav track: For Tomorrow

Day 29 This is amazing but 5 British albums in a row? Come on generator 🫩 Fav track: He Won't Go

Day 30 I don't think this record is Young Fav track: Wooden Ships

Day 31 Man sounds bored the entire time but it works Fav track: Tower of Song

Day 32 So this is mom rock. I love it! Fav track: Fading Fast

Day 33 I'm sorry but I got tired too many times listening to this shit Fav track: Step It Up

Day 34 Less than 40 days and I've rinsed Ms. Hill twice already. Not complaining. This shit fire Fav track: The Mask

Day 35 Richard's a bitch Fav track: This Flight Tonight

Day 36 I just know this album did a number on indie kids forever Fav track: Infinity

Day 37 "Shit, I'm being too generous lately. I need to cool it with my fives" Then she fucking hits me with the "son" expression Fav track: Venus as a Boy

Day 38 As Peter Griffin once said, "I do not care for blues" Fav track: The Healer

Day 39 It's a shame colour wasn't invented for The Beatles until 1964 Fav track: All I've Got to Do

Day 40 I liked it better when they did Wonderwall Fav track: Writing to Reach You

Day 41 A classic and a truly gripping narrative. I cri everytim Fav track: Comfortably Numb

Day 42 The lady on First Impression says everything Fav track: Midnight

Day 43 Sunday Bloody Sunday on a Sunday. I might just be the main character. These U2 boys have real potential Fav track: Drowning Man

Day 44 Imagine naming yourselves "The Band" and getting away with it for decades. Little pretentious douches... Fav track: Chest Fever

Day 45 Maybe I'd give a better review if there was actually a way to fucking listen to it. Oh well. I'll re-review it once I do

Day 46 Y'all are tripping this is way better than most of the indieslop in that era Fav track: Empty Nest

Day 47 I've seen my fair share of shit in my life. I like to be open minded. That said, there are instances where media can offend or go out of it's way to be terrible. This is different because it offers me nothing. Every track feels like the same extension of 80s synth pop but doesn't to much to differentiate itself vocally or instrumentally. I found myself bored to death and even the greatest realisation of the format, Perfect Day, was too milquetoast to be added to my rotation. The worst album ever? Not quite. But I do struggle to understand why the fuck this had to make the list out of everything out there Fav track: Cant be arsed

Day 48 Black Sabbath if they were cool Fav track: Black Hole Sun

Day 49 What is it with this list and by the numbers 90s electronica? Fav track: Water from a Vine Leaf

Day 50 For the first big milestone, I'm torn. It's Easier and Outer Space seemed to set up a stronger second half but hey, y'know what Grant thought would be funny? To throw in a bunch of slurs the very track after! Fuck off Fav track: Outer Space

Day 51 Frank's that guy. What more can I say? Fav track: We'll Be Together Again

Day 52 I could quip but these guys had real potential. What a shame they were screwed over so hard Fav track: The Ballad of El Goodo
