Given the overall lists - I imagine the result wouldn't be very "fair" but curious what it would look like at how many artists meet the criteria by either:
1) # RYM bolded albums
2) # albums in top 1000 of aggregated lists
Might be an ok result, but likely would ignore stuff like Fela Kuti (just kidding... with his live album, he hits 10 on the head bolded albums on RYM).
For context there, Miles Davis gets 20 out of his 63 bolded.

It’s hard to progress as an artist without dropping a few duds along the way, and 10+ is a ballpark I can’t comfortably nominating anyone for... I can think of a few artists who’ve dropped 4-8 albums sans dud but not 10.
R.E.M.
Yo la Tengo
Wilco
Miles Davis (at least I've not got to any duds yet)
The Beatles (though I'm on the fence about Yellow Submarine Soundtrack)
Tom Waits
Belle and Sebastian
Ron Sexsmith
They are my best bets. There are a handful of Wilco and YLT albums I've not heard though..and around 30 Miles albums I've not heard 🤣

Felt most probably. They released 10 albums and 10 singles in a 10 year career. I've listened to more than half and plan to get round to the rest. It's all really good so far.

This is probably the consensus pick for his worst album released before his death, so maybe give it a listen and get back to us? 😄 _________________ Join us in the canon game :) / Add me on RYM

Yeah...I was rooting for this, but unfortunately I'd have to relegate it to dud status. I mean, why the heck did they go with those awful Casio demo keyboard sounds? They were basically aural torture!
Human Nature was actually pretty nice and other bits of the album seem like they might be on to something...but no, it's just kind of dull. I guess even the great Miles Davis screwed up eventually 🙁
