I saw some book at my local B&N about 1000 albums that either were the most influencial or that everyone had to hear once in their life or something.

 
It was alot more then prog however.
Dig me...But don't...Bury me
I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive
Warning: Listening to jazz excessively can cause a laxative effect.

Good point but are you talking about books (as the original post by T.Rox), albums or both??? I think 1001 is not impossible to hear during your lifetime but read 1001 books??? That's crazy!!!

LOL

At my current rate of page turning that's about 55 years.
Albums on the other hand... at an average of 2 a day thats only under 1.5 years.

I have read around 100 - 200 books, and am only 16. I might be able to reach 1000 when I'm 60 or something like that. Maybe sooner if I keep up the rate I am at, 1-2 books per week.
