I have been fighting my way through the "1,001 albums you must listen to before you die’ list, and there have been some truly terrible albums.
New York Dolls, debut album
Brian Eno, my life in the bush of ghosts
Marquee Moon, television
Slade, slayed?
Sugarcube, life’s too good
Barry Adamson, Oedipus Schmoedipus
Animal collective, Merriweather Post Pavilion
Heaven 17, Penthouse And Pavement
And the worst album I have ever heard on my life, king of garbage music Lou Reed and his garbage band of notmusic and pretention:
The velvet underground, The Velvet Underground & Nico
Music is subjective, I like some of the albums you listed, but I agree that the 1001 list is trash full of terrible albums. I made it through 142 before giving up.
aha a fellow 1001 albums listener. im currently doing it too. the heaven 17 album is one of my favorite discoveries. ill drop my 1 star ratings here let me know if i hate one of your favs lol
I’ve only rated the velvet underground and nico album one star because I personally don’t consider it actual music. Because of that, I have a hard time rating music I “just don’t like” as one star because it’s recognizable to me as music. So, I rated this one two stars.
I was surprised to see you rated a Clapton album so poorly because I like him (musically) quite a bit. We have really different tastes, and I think it’s cool to know there is stuff that absolutely is not for me that is a five star album for someone else

I like a fair amount of Bowie, but Young Americans is a truly grating song.
