I spent some time tonight poring over the overall list here trying to find the highest-ranked album I’d never heard. The winner: New Order’s compilation “Substance 1987” at #621.
Among studio albums, it was Artaud’s “Pescado Rabioso” at #664.
I'm pretty sure I've never heard Is This It by The Strokes (currently at #24), so I guess I'm not so impressive in that department. I definitely haven't heard My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy (#33) or Ten (#50), except for the singles. I'll probably listen to Is This It eventually, just to find out what the fuss was about (and I'll probably love it), but... not the other two.
I actually do better from 50 to 100 — the only one of those I've not heard is Sound Of Silver by LCD Soundsystem (#96).
If you want to check off more on this list (or any list) in a game format, come join us in the listen to the album below you canon edition thread in the games section 😄 _________________ Join us in the canon game :) / Add me on RYM
I own the top 258 of the overall chart. This one is next on my list...and I have not yet heard it. _________________ I'm leaning on the threshold

It's at #314 on the overall chart. Not that I have anything against it, on the contrary, I think Fishmans is great, I just don't often have the time to listen to a 120+ minute live album.
That and Joanna Newsom's Have One on Me are the only albums in the top 500 I haven't heard yet (and that's only because Newsom isn't on streaming) _________________ Progressive Rock
I have heard the whole Top 1000.
And most of the top 1001-2000.
I spent a few years going through and listening to the albums, even ones I didn't like.
I know...OCD!
I recently went back through the Overall Chart, just to check I'd heard the top 1000.
The highest ranked album I have yet to hear is this one:
