Couldn't Girl Talk or Danger Mouse just mash all 1,000 of them up into one  really great single?  Who has enough time left in their lives to listen to 1,000 albums?

Guided By Voices
 Human Amusements at Hourly Rates: The Best Of (2003)
 Guided By Voices' position as totems of lo-fi US indie through the 90s obscures the fact that, when their Who-obsessed leader Robert Pollard wished them to be, they were also the most powerful rock band of the decade. This makes that case compellingly.
 
 hmmm...lots of greatest hits on this list
