I've been spending a portion of my paycheck on albums in the top 1000 and it has introduced me to a ton of great music. I'm interested in which albums you have bought because they were in the top 1000 and your opinions on them. Here are mine based on first impressions. Fortunately I have a daily three hour commute, so I have lots of time to give some of these another listen. 😁
Okay
The Clash (London Calling), Elbow (The Seldom Seen Kid), Jeff Buckley (Grace), The Smashing Pumpkins (Mellon Collie and The Infinite Sadness), Supertramp (Crime of the Century), Tom Petty (Full Moon Fever), The Velvet Underground (The Velvet Underground & Nico), Violent Femmes (Violent Femmes)
Some Good Songs
Bjork (Debut, Post, Homogenic, Vespertine), Blur (Modern Life is Rubbish, Parklife, The Great Escape, Blur, 13), My Bloody Valentine (Isn't Anything), Nirvana (Bleach), Oasis (Definitely Maybe), The Stone Roses (The Stone Roses), XTC (Skylarking)
Solid
The Cars (The Cars), Green Day (Dookie), Nirvana (In Utero), Oasis ((What's the Story) Morning Glory), Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers (Damn the Torpedoes)
Spectacular
The Flaming Lips (The Soft Bulletin), My Bloody Valentine (Loveless), Nick Drake (Pink Moon), Nirvana (Nevermind), Pink Floyd (Dark Side of the Moon), The Smiths (The Queen Is Dead), Weezer (Pinkerton)

3. Brothers in arms
4. Dookie
5. Damn the torpedoes
6. Is This it
7. The lonesome crowded west
8. Odyssey and Oracle
9. The Velvet Underground and Nico
10. Bang Bang (By Dispatch)
11. I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning
12. Demon Days
13. So Much for the afterglow (By Everclear)

16. Sailing the seas of cheese
17. Enter the wu tang
18. Bish Bosch (By Scott Walker)
19. Paranoid (By Black Sabbath)

EDIT: and that's not to say I haven't bought more (check collection if you really care, but I haven't marked everything I own there either), but I'm just too lazy to put up a whole list.

As of right now, I have bought and own 387 of the overall top 1000. _________________ I'm leaning on the threshold
Of her mystery
And crashing through the walls
Of dying history
I enjoy having a physical copy of the albums that I really enjoy.
Currently that's about 40, but that's excluding pretty much everything before the 1990s that my Dad owns anyway. I may buy them sometime in the future.
