Well done.
I'm curious, at 22 that's a lot of listening. Have you used that book as a template to work through?
Also, at 22, are you at all into collecting vinyl and/or CDs, or do you stream everything?

I've listened to 446 of these albums
I'm ranked 403 and I'm in the top 3%
But I have spent the last 9 months ploughing through the BEA Top 1000. I'm up to #392
But I did take Christmas off to chill and to listen to Christmas music.
I do own this book but it was my obssesion with the Rolling Stone's Top 500 albums of all time list which originally brought me to BEA. Since then I have discovered many other lists. And it's been fun agreeing with some of them and disagreeing with other elements.
So I am officially a music geek.
There have been quite a few albums I didn't count cos I got halfway through and hated them so switched them off. But I did torture myself a few times by listening to entire albums which I have hated, because they were so highly rated, mentioning no names (ok it was Joanna Newsom!!! And Wilco!!Sorry JN and Wilco lovers!)

- On one end of the spectrum: being in the same room as the album playing while washing dishes.
- On the other end: have transcribed the majority of the songs and solos by ear and learned to play them.
- On a different spectrum: significant life memories attached, like my son being born while the music was playing.

254. There are a lot in there that I have been meaning to listen to that I just haven't gotten around to. There are also a lot that I have no intention of ever listening to.
