Damon Albarn has released several albums with different artists over the years, and a fan has put together a chronological list of all 54 of his albums in order, the complete Damon Albarn discography. TheRealQuiz wrote on Reddit: I must have missed some records (please tell me in the comments!) but over the last four weeks I have listened to all of Damon Albarn’s recordings in chronological order.
I have listened to him since early in his career – I was right into Britpop whilst it was happening – so I was very familiar with most of these records before doing this (particularly all of Blur, Gorillaz, TGTBTQ) but this was nonetheless fascinating as listening to them chronologically meant that I heard one project’s ideas bleed into another.
This was the list (whenever I have noted LP I also listened to all of that album’s singles’ b-sides if another compilation didn’t otherwise cover them):
