Your favourite recordings that everyone else hates

Tgi: Sit back and enjoy SP and JLP, or something else? ;^)

yeap...Gravity Kills and Rammstein...I love both bands and i got all of their recordings...Rammstein has a killer DVD out...a must have...be careful with the volume!

Tgi: I guessed that age bracket as that is the age that many "ex-hippies" are close to nowadays. I was basing that "guesstimate" on the fact that both of my parents liked those performers and ... Well, you can put 2+2 together : ) For the record, i'm coming up on 40 this year, so we aren't that far apart in age. While you've listed some specific Shawn Phillips discs, what Jean Luc* discs are worth checking out?

Iasi: I think that Rammstein is a "luv it or hate it" kind of band. Some of the music is somewhat repetitive, but as a general rule, i love it : ) Sean

* Jean Luc, as in Ponty, NOT Picard. I can see how some might confuse the "spaced out" sounds and names though : )

Albert Ayler - Live at the Village Vanguard - One of my absolute favorites that never fails to clear the room.

Frederica von Stade, "Song Recital" (Purcell, Debussy Hall, Canteloube Dowland, Liszt). (1978)

Björk Gudmundsdottir, "Post." (1995)

Man Jumping, "World Service." (1988)

Hank Williams, "Hank Williams' Greatest Hits" (1961)

American Prayer, "The Doors" (1978)

Eminem  "Eminem Show" (explicit version 2002)

Some of these offend my older friends, some offend my 18 year old son. I like all of these on the right occasion.
