Standard blog apology for long break since last update.  But this time, it has a happy ending.  Taking so long to feel inspired to write about this CD (it predates the proper "album") led me to grow tired of listening to it over and over again.  After deciding to power through an entry about it, I turned my bus-ride-listening attention to "This is Your Brain On Music" by Daniel J. Levitin, as read by Edward Herrmann, or, as I like to call him, Eddwwarrdd Herrmmann.  The book is great, and I'd recommend it to anyone.  I'm enjoying it so much, in fact, that I'm narrating this entry in Herrrrmmmmannnn's voice, and possibly choosing words and phrasing that Lorelai Gilmore's father might choose.  If you know Herrrrrrrmmmmmmmannnnnnn's voice well enough, I'd recommend letting him narrate to you as well, and if you don't know it, imagine what Herman Munster would sound like as a Yale-educated insurance company executive. 

Anyway, the book is a bit dense and I have Attention Deficit Disorder, so I'm sure I'll get quite a bit extra out of a second listening, but one of the many things it's made me think about is this: my perception of what jazz sounds like is centered around "Take Five" by Dave Brubeck.  Things are more "jazz" or less "jazz" by being more similar or less similar to this song, and perhaps other Brubeck songs that also played on the car radio when Grandpa Schulenburg would drive us to church, or in his den when I would go in there to browse the stacks of ancient (1970s) books.  Knowing then that Grandpa was a huge jazz fan, and hearing Brubeck and especially "Take Five" more than any other* artist or song, perhaps as frequently as every week, I naturally assumed he was the best jazz artist, or the most prolific, or the more famous, or the earliest, or perhaps all of these together.  Later on I heard that Louis Armstrong, Cab Calloway and their peers were some of the earliest jazz artists.  I say I "heard" this because I can't say that I "learned" it, as it wasn't added into my overall perception of jazz enough to replace Brubeck as the essential example of what jazz is.

* Of course, I've probably heard Vince Guaraldi's music from the Peanuts holiday specials more often than Dave Brubeck, but that always had an asterisk attached, much like the one you're reading now, that indicated it was Christmas-jazz, or just Christmas music, and therefore a novelty.  I can tell now that this is unfair.  Don't cut me out of the inheritance, Dad.

I'll start talking about Django Reinhardt very soon, but I'd first like to point out how great it is that, though jazz is a famously American invention, the first recordings in the jazz genre that I get to listen to in this mission are from a French group with a Romani leader (and a homosexual co-pilot; Hitler must have loved them [... according to this, my snark has a ring of truth: Django's survival through WW2 was assisted by Nazi jazz-fans]).  I would have loved to have heard some Louis Armstrong or other early jazz artist, but none are on the mission list, and I have a strange tendency to not add items to my own list simply because they deserve to be on it.  In fact most of what I've personally added are included due to a reputation for being among the worst albums ever.

So, then, Django Reinhardt and the Quintet of the Hot Club of France.  I loved it instantly.  Something makes me want to describe them by using the word "pleasant" as strongly as possible.  Fiercely enjoyable, often whirlwindy, and perhaps the most bad-ass I can imagine music getting before offending someone.  Though G-Rated, nothing here is boring or tame.  While guitarist Reinhardt and violinist Stephane Grappelli are able to rest when it's the other one's turn to solo, as a listener I'm driven along the entire time, tossed from one instrument to the next without a lull.  Levitin, in "...Brain...," describes the common jazz practice of playing the conventional melody of a song once or twice before launching into improvisations, as sort of a starting point for the song, and recommends humming the basic melody during the improvisations to help anchor the continuity of the song.  Both of these ideas helped me make sense of what I was listening to, and to feel like I was listening to it the way I was supposed to be, like I was listening for the right things.  The common-melody-then-improvisations is done here on standards I'm somewhat familiar with as well as on songs that are new to me, and it's a very satisfying effect in both cases.  These are all great reasons to listen to this collection as an introduction to early jazz, all of which overshadow the fact that it isn't performed by an American.  Obviously I don't yet know the differences between Django Reinhardt and Louis Armstrong, but Reinhardt definitely admired Armstrong, and the two hung out and played together a bit, so I'm thinking this may be the second best choice for an introduction to jazz.

2010 Grammy Album of the Year Nominees

So it's time again to anticipate what I may be listening to in 20-30 years (or 60, if I don't pick up the pace on this mission thing).   Last year I felt neutral about the nominees, knowing that none were included on the mission yet and knowing little about any of them from my own experience.  This year, however, we've got two already-listed artists.  Also in the running are two singers I'm familiar with thanks to some friends, one of them a Grammy loser from last year, and an artist/band/something I've never heard of.  Who will win? The author's favorite? The redemption-seeking tough guy? The second-chancer? The dark horse? Katy Perry?  Let's look at what we (meaning, what I) know about them...

Arcade Fire - The Suburbs
Hell yes.  Bought the album (paid money!) the weekend it came out, saw them when they came to Portland, told everyone who didn't go how great it was, bought a magazine because they were on the cover, got the tattoo, promised them my first-born, learned French, got a job as a butler.  Arcade Fire is my choice.  I want to see their albums go 3-for-3 on mission-inclusion.  Hell yes.
Having said that, is it a realistic hope?  Perhaps not.  As much as I would love the world to be such that this was the album of the year (as well as the Album Of The Year), what I've heard about this album in the media doesn't leave me inclined to call it a sure thing, or even a strong possibility.  I think this nomination may be more of a congratulatory acknowledgment of a job well done, where "it's an honor just to be nominated" is the best you'll get.  And I don't think the band will be broken-hearted if they lose.  Sure they have stated that they enjoy selling records, but I'm not convinced that's their goal in all this.

Eminem - Recovery
First three major-label albums on the list thanks to 1001-book and the Rolling-Stone-500.  Two most recent albums (2004 and 2009) not listed, including not being in most recent 1001-book revisions, hmm... I've heard a lot of praise for this year's album, though, especially compared to the lukewarm reception last year's album received.  I'd be a little surprised if this won, simply because I've been able to go all year without learning a single song title or hook from it.  Cultural osmosis has so far been a feature of all the Grammy Album wins since I hit puberty (Herbie Hancock excluded).

Lady Antebellum - Need You Now
Never heard of it.  No idea, no opinion, no guessing... although having heard nothing about it kind of says something...

Lady Gaga - The Fame Monster
Isn't this an EP? Anyway, I watch Glee and I have friends under 20, so I've heard a few of these songs. I don't dislike them, but I don't see Lady Gaga fitting in on the list of AOTY winners just yet. It seems a bit too new, too youth-oriented. I'll refer again to Herbie Hancock, who beat Kanye West, Foo Fighters and Amy Winehouse.  Then again, there are no real oldsters on the list, and the earliest debut album from these nominees is just 14 years ago, so it's a young-ish winner no matter what.  I wonder if Lady Gaga is nominated for youth-credibility reasons.  Youth-cred/"record sales" seems to explain quite a few of the nominees in the last decade (at least: only in the only decade in have I been a cultural participant).  I don't think, however, that any of the winners are lacking in appeal to a wide range of ages and tastes.

Temporal Displacement

For the first few months after getting "1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die" I was not planning on listening to the albums in chronological order.  It didn't take long for me to get frustrated with the essays in the book about how "Maggot Brain" was so ______ or how "Endtroducing..." was more ______ than any other ______ since ______.  I soon figured I would only be able to fully appreciate each album if it was in a historical context.  Before I decided this, however, I'd gotten pretty familiar with quite a few of the albums.  Here's the list of albums I listened to during the Summer and Fall of 2009, during the "Quarrymen" / "Good Morning Miss Bliss" / "Pacific Air Flight 121" phase of the mission.

2Pac - Me Against the World
Afrika Bambaataa & Soul Sonic Force – Planet Rock: The Album
Air – Moon Safari
Air – Virgin Suicides: Original Motion Picture Score
Aphex Twin – Selected Ambient Works 85-92
the Avalanches - Since I Left You
Bauhaus - Mask
Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath
Brian Eno – Ambient 1: Music for Airports
Butthole Surfers – Locust Abortion Technician
Byrds – Younger than Yesterday
the Circle Jerks - Group Sex
the Damned - Machine Gun Etiquette
the Dead Kennedys - Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables
DJ Shadow - Endtroducing…
Elliott Smith - Either/Or
Elvis Costello - My Aim is True
Elvis Presley - Elvis Presley
Foo Fighters – Foo Fighters
Frank Sinatra - In the Wee Small Hours
Frank Sinatra - Songs for Swingin' Lovers!
Funkadelic - Maggot Brain
Gorillaz - Gorillaz
Lloyd Cole & the Commotions – Rattlesnakes
the Louvin Brothers - Tragic Songs of Life
Marvin Gaye – What’s Going On
Metallica - Metallica
the Minutemen - Double Nickels on the Dime
Mudhoney - Every Good Boy Deserves Fudge
Nick Drake - Pink Moon
Nirvana - Nevermind
Run DMC – Raising Hell
Serge Gainsbourg – Histoire de Melody Nelson
Smashing Pumpkins – Mellon Collie & the Infinite Sadness
Spiritualized – Ladies & Gentlemen, We are Floating in Space
Various Artists - A Christmas Gift For You from Phil Spector

Needless to say, the temporal displacement brought on by listening to all these albums out of chronological context caused all sorts of problems.  In addition to being confused about the true value of each album, I would experience headaches, double vision, nosebleeds, and an inability to distinguish between the past, present and future, just like in Season 5 of "Lost".  Thankfully, I was able to design for myself a constant, and the temporal displacement symptoms have since stopped.

My friends want me to live longer

Once again, another summer camp season is over, and once again, a new grip of suggestions comes in from the new friends I've met or the old friends I've successfully harassed.  Oh boy oh boy oh boy.  I'm excited because quite a few bands I was hoping to see on the mission have now been added.  Good work, gang!

These will be have been added into the Master Lists pretty soon.  I wish I had an intern to do the administrative crap for me.

Life is what happens when I'm not working on this blog

So I've decided to postpone the mammoth 9-hour Hank Williams box-set so that I can get a move on with the mission and listen to more stuff of more reasonable length.  I've listened to the other Hank Williams collection, and I'll be writing about it soon.

Fortunately, but unfortunately for this blog, I'm working out in the forest for the summer and I only have about 22 hours off during the weekend in which to possibly spend any time on the internet.  And, of course, there are 1,000,000 things to do during the week, all of which are crammed into those 22 hours.

Long story short, it may be a while.  Still.  But that's life, and this is a hobby.

Love,
Comet!

Hiatus: accomplished!  College: completed!  Mission: back on!

Yeah, I have a little bit of time for my mission again!  What a wonderful new chapter of my life!  And I've kicked it off by creating a post with each category of album-inclusion separated into lists!  And I'm allowed to use exclamation points again!

But there's still that ten-hour Hank Williams box set I need to tackle¡
(the upside-down exclamation point indicates that it's a bummer)

• This blog is going to be on hold for a few weeks or so, while I

• look for a job;
• get stable at school; and
• figure out how to approach the next mission item, which is a ten-disc, nine-hour box set...
• Maybe it will be ten separate entries
• So I can listen to each disc separately...
• Maybe it will be a long stream-of-consciousness entry that I'll write as I...
• listen to the whole thing in one big ten-hour stretch
• or in a couple 3-5 hour stretches
• Most of the mission stuff will be on hold, including
• finding new albums
• (except that I don't want to let library holds lapse,
• and I only have PSU library access for about two more months),
• formatting stuff in iTunes,
• reorganizing or amending the lists,
• or writing any new blog entries,
• except this one
• (obviously).
• See you in a few weeks!
• Maybe there will be some sort of ribbon-cutting thing once I can devote a little more attention this way.
• Bullet points!

1001 Albums revision

It looks like I need to plan on staying alive another month longer than I thought... yes, the "1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die" book/list has been revised again.   I went to Powell's and made a list of the albums at the end of the book that weren't already on my list.  Here are the additions I've found so far:

   Goldfrapp - Seventh Tree
   Elbow - The Seldom Seen Kid
* Portishead - Third
   Slipknot - All Hope is Gone
* TV On The Radio - Dear Science
* Fleet Foxes - Fleet Foxes
   Q-Tip - The Renaissance
* MGMT - Oracular Spectacular
   Bill Callahan - Sometimes I Wish We Were An Eagle
* Animal Collective - Merriweather Post Pavilion
* Grizzly Bear - Veckatimest
* Yeah Yeah Yeahs - It's Blitz!

* indicates that I've heard good things about the album, that I wasn't surprised to see it on the list, and that I'm looking forward to hearing it in about 13 years.

These will be have been added into the Master Lists pretty soon. I haven't done a completely anal-retentive search through the revised book/list, so if there were any albums that have been added other than at the end, I'll find them later. 

I wonder if the book/list is going to be updated every year... and if that means I'll live forever...

Skip James – The Complete Early Recordings of Skip James

---

Mission Control - Entry Number 003 (time warp, should have been between 1&2)

Artist: Skip James
Title: The Complete Early Recordings of Skip James

Release Date: 1994 (material originally recorded and released 1931)
Length: 53 min
Relevance: Recommendation from Ian

Pre-Listen: I've heard "Devil Got My Woman" from its appearance in "Ghost World."

My Favorites: "Hard Time Killing Floor Blues" & "How Long Blues"

TLDR: At times more lively and upbeat than Robert Johnson, but at times the sound quality is problematic.

---

This should have been listened to before the Robert Johnson collection, but Ian didn't make the recommendation until I'd already started listening to the Johnson entry. No big deal this time, and this will inevitably happen again with way more time-warpiness. Oh well, moving on.

The thing that stands out most to me about this collection of songs is that it shows a lot more variety than Robert Johnson's work. With one or two exceptions, such as "They're Red Hot," most of Johnson's songs sounded very similar to me, almost to the point of having a recognizable template. Skip James' songs, however, are more varied in tempo, instrument and theme. Johnson keeps pretty close to the themes of difficult women, hard luck, hellish life, etc. James hits these themes, but also has a few religious songs, which seems to confirm this citation-needy line from his Wikipedia entry:

"James epitomized the complicated personality typical of many bluesmen, living a hard and sometimes reckless life while holding austere religious beliefs."

Johnson, by comparison, asks for assistance from God a few times in his songs, but doesn't go out of his way to express any positive, enthusiastic religious view. This non-well-roundedness, bent toward the cooler, eviler side, may be why Johnson seems to be a more charismatic and sexy idea for rock musicians to latch onto, and part of why Johnson's legend is larger than James' (along with, you know, his mysterious early death and all that).

Skip James recorded in the very early 1930s, and there must have been significant advancement in recording clarity before Robert Johnson's 1936/37 sessions, or perhaps higher quality equipment for Johnson to use. The difference is noticeable, and James is often unintelligible, like the more gravelly parts of the Anthology of American Folk Music, which was recorded in the same couple years. The liveliness of his more upbeat songs comes through, however, so I will probably be revisiting this album as much as Johnson's work. It's nice to hear that even bluesmen can enjoy a nice few minutes of jaunty piano. I'm also glad I got a third piece of music from before 1950. Thanks, Ian!

My Favorites: "Terraplane Blues" & "Sweet Home Chicago"

TLDR: Man sings his way through hell-on-Earth. Blogger doesn't understand the guitar hype (yet). What Satan giveth, Satan taketh away.

---

I'd heard a lot about Robert Johnson in my life, but it was all very hard to keep straight. This is probably due in part to his astoundingly generic name, and in part to the fact that what I'd been hearing was inherently confused anyway, on a few levels. First of all, it seems like there is little confidence in the accuracy of most facts about his life. This is compounded by the legends that have been added to his story, and made even worse when he is mistaken for other similar bluesmen, such as Tommy Johnson.

About the only thing you can really count on to be true is the 42-song body of work credited to him. Thankfully, there's a good deal you can tell about the guy from these recordings. He's plagued by tormentors and obstacles both night and day. Women constantly do him wrong, and he can't stay away from women who care little for him. He's got issues in his subconscious that he can't control, and acts in ways he can't explain. Hearing him sing it, you really believe it, that living his life is generally hellish from multiple angles. He seems to have fun on some songs, or during some lyrics, but very little of this gives me the impression that Johnson had many laughs here on Earth. I definitely feel more convinced of the pain Robert Johnson is singing about than I did during the Anthology of American Folk Music (though only some parts of that album are personally expressive songs that can be compared to Johnson's work).

The first thing I'd heard and remembered about Robert Johnson is the legend that he sold his soul to the devil for guitar skillz. It's a great story, but the thing that I don't get about it is how it makes sense for Johnson's playing to be representative of Satan's musical powers. People seem to talk about him like he's a great guitar player even by today's standards. It seems unlikely to me that such an influential guitar player hasn't been severely passed in the ensuing 3/4-century. Then again, I don't play guitar, and I for sure didn't play it seventy-five years ago, so I'm sure I'm the one at fault in not seeing the impressiveness here. I hope it becomes clearer as I continue my mission. And I'm not saying it's bad, either. I'm currently working on forming a proper frame of reference.

I wonder if Satan contributed to the overall crappiness of Johnson's life, perhaps to help Johnson create better blues songs. Maybe his end of the bargain went like this: "You can be the best guitarist today, Mr. Johnson, but someday some kid will write about how it's hard to believe you were once the best, how the 75 years of guitar-playing evolution (that you may be largely responsible for) have made your influence hard to discern, and how you're easily confusable with other, lesser guitar players of your day. Also, I'll help this along by intentionally keeping the facts of your life hazy and creating conflicting memories for witnesses of your time on earth. Now here's some two-timing women and hellhounds. Hail, Satan." Oh, Satan. You always win.

Harry Smith ed. - Anthology of American Folk Music

---

Mission Control - Entry Number 001

Artist: Various Artists; Edited by Harry Smith
Title: Anthology of American Folk Music, aka The Harry Smith Anthology

Release Date: 1952 (material recorded between 1926 and 1932; all material previously released)
Length: 4 hrs 16 min
Relevance: RS #276 (2003) / #273 (2005)

Personal favorites:
V1: "Gonna Die With My Hammer In My Hand" by The Williamson Brothers & Curry
V2: "Rocky Road" by Alabama Sacred Harp Singers
V3: "See That My Grave Is Kept Clean" by Blind Lemon Jefferson

TLDR:  Great album to start the mission.  Historical curiosity satisfied, desire to hear murder tales and religious gaiety satisfied, desire to hear songs that sound like a Deceptacon eating gravel very very satisfied.

---

Volume One: Ballads

Spoiler: Everyone Dies.

Well, maybe not everyone.  Everyone dies, or murders, or gets their heartbroken,  or breaks a heart, or hates their boss, or is a horrible boss.  If I went solely upon the stories in these 27 songs, I would assume that Americans at the dawn of the 20th century were all quite dysfunctional, to the point that it's surprising that the nation survived.  No one here is happy, no one is in a nice happy relationship.  What a downer.

But I suppose that's why these songs were written.  Documenting a specific tragedy or crime might have served to help people remember the downfall of others.  Don't get to clingy, ladies, or you'll get thrown off a waterfall like Naomi Wise did.  Don't be to reckless, engine driver, or you'll die with your engine wrapped around you, like your momma said, and like that song said. 

As far as the music goes, it was nice to hear a collection of guitar and violin and banjo recordings from before recordings were widely available.  I could be wrong (and that's very likely), but I imagine that most of the players here were either self-taught or were taught by someone who was.  In other words, I imagine that the instrumental work here was developed before there were established conventions or expectations for what popular music should sound like.  Vocally, some of the stuff here is bafflingly hard to listen to, and you can also tell that some of these voices would be unattractive even with today's recording quality.  Maybe they sounded sexy at the time, but it's hard to imagine so.  The recording quality... well, you take what you can get, I guess, and given that some of this stuff was recorded 85 years ago, I'm not going to knock them for that.  Still, the songs alternate between sounding like they are being played here in the room and sounding like they were recorded in an underwater warehouse-slash-bee-factory.  I wonder if any improvements could be made with today's remastering technology, but maybe that's part of the charm.  

Volume Two: Social Music

The first half of this volume is instrumental music not unlike the songs played in the dance scene of "Back to the Future 3," but I imagine that the hootin' and hollerin' was toned down for the recording process.  Still, it's very easy to imagine these songs played much more raucously, with much more stompin'.  Very fun stuff.  The second half is made up of religious songs, some of which sound like a sermon from a Sunday morning and some of which are more upbeat and include hootin', hollerin' and stompin'.  Indeed, many fall into both these categories.

Musically, the comments from the previous section apply here too.

Volume Three: The Songs

As opposed to the first volume, which deals with songs about specific people and the events that happened to them at specific times, these are more general songs about... well, whatever songs are ever about.  Most of the songs on the anthology that are "[such and such] Blues" are on this volume.  To make a long story short, I can't figure out a way to classify the songs here except that they don't fit into the other two volumes. 

Musically, see above.

Other Comments

I think this is the perfect first item for my mission, for numerous reasons.

First of all, it's by multiple artists.  Over 60 artists, in fact.  This gives me a nice, wide picture of what American folk really sounded like, and not be limited to hearing one man's particular style.  Imagine trying to get a picture of what rap sounds like by listening to a single album by a single artist (hint: you can't, and it's foolish to think you can). 

Secondly, this anthology features recordings dating back to the earlier part of the history of recorded music, which gives me the impression that there aren't many recordings older than these.  In order to hear earlier music, it would be up to someone else to play it.  These are, I imagine, some of the earliest recorded musical documents there are (I could be very wrong, though).

Thirdly, the songs here are documented with known years by known artists, but had been developed over the course of years, decades or possibly even centuries, and continued to be transformed after these recordings.  This makes the anthology a window on 1926-1933 in a process of American folk music that dates 1776-Present.  I appreciate the knowledge that this document sort of encompasses at least a hundred years of the development of popular music, and I'm excited that I'll hear these songs again in the course of my mission, developed further by Joan Baez, Nick Cave and others.

Other good points include the satisfaction of my historical/sociological curiosity (lots of courting, lots of casual discussion of murder), and the liner notes by Portland's own Harry Smith.  Best of Mr. Smith's song descriptions: "Zoological miscegeny achieved in mouse-frog nuptials. Relatives approve."  Who wouldn't want to listen to that?

(Technically this compilation wasn't put together until 1952, so that's when most people [like Bob Dylan] would have first been able to hear most of these songs. I guess you could say the influence of this collection wouldn't be happening untilthen, so I should have listened to it after Django Reinhardt, Hank Williams, etc.  Oh well.)

Subjectivity Homesick Blues

I just wanted to mention again that I'm not any sort of professional at this. I'm not educated in music criticism, I can't read music and I don't play any instruments. I'm a total novice, but I'm interested and I'll probably get better at writing and thinking about music as this whole thing progresses.


In case anyone's interested in my own biases and experiences with music, here is a list of some albums that I have considered My Favorite at some point in the last ten years, in roughly chronological order:

• The Beatles - Abbey Road
• Operation Ivy - Energy
• Crimpshrine - The Sound of a New World Being Born
• Fifteen - Allegra
• X - Beyond and Back: The X Anthology
• J Church - One Mississippi
• The White Stripes - De Stijl
• Bright Eyes - Lifted, or, The Story is in the Soil, Keep Your Ear to the Ground
• Pavement - Terror Twilight
• The Flaming Lips - Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots
• Various Artists - Kindercore Fifty: We Thank You
• the Olivia Tremor Control - Singles and Beyond
• of Montreal - Satanic Panic in the Attic
• The Dismemberment Plan - Emergency & I
• Negativland - Negativland/U2
• X-Ray Spex - Germ Free Adolescents
• Dean Gray - American Edit
• They Might Be Giants - They Might Be Giants
• Girl Talk - Night Ripper
• the World/Inferno Friendship Society - East Coast Super Sound Punk Of Today!
• Arcade Fire - Funeral
• Girl Talk - Feed the Animals

My first entries will probably be lamentably poor in terms of my ability to think about the music and especially the historical and musical context of each album.  I expect that there will be a lot of retrospective consideration given to the earliest albums on the list as I get farther along into the albums.  Since there has to be a first item, I won't be able to bring up anything I've heard so far when I write that entry.  Later on the entries will likely include thoughts on what brought us to that album, what the album is like, and what influences it may have on future records.  

Bear with me, I'm trying to structure this scientifically but I don't have much background on all of it.  That's sort of the whole point to doing it, I guess.

The List, Chronological

Here is the list of albums I'll be listening to in the order I will be listening to them. This entry will be updated whenever new albums are added, like after the Grammys each year.

I've tried to put them in chronological order as best as I could, but there were a few problems to figure out. First of all, I was unable to find information more specific than the year of release for some entries. I've decided to listen to albums that I only know the year for at the beginning of that year. Same with month information. There wasn't really a reason for this decision other than consistency except that this is the way my spreadsheet program alphabetizes these symbols. Secondly, an album comprised of material that was not all released on one discrete date, such as an anthology, is placed in a position that attempts to indicate when the majority of the album's material would have been available. Dates with squiggles (~) indicate that this has occurred.  Coping with these two problems has resulted in a highly subjective ordering process. Oh well.

[1001] = 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die

[RS_###] = Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums of All Time (with placement)
[Gram_####] = Grammy Award for Album of the Year (with year)
