Your favourite recordings that everyone else hates

Any of you have favourites that were rejected by reviewers and / or the public in general ? Well, here's your chance to bare your soul and plead your case before the Audiogon Court of Jesters : )

How about discs that you love even though the recordings are decidedly "lo-fi" ? Bootleg's don't really count, but you can list them anyhow : ) Sean

The McGarrigle sisters DANCER WITH BRUISED KNEES gets the most consistant bashing by my friends. I love this recording, even with all the add distortion of sighs,moans, and out and out protest.

Ornette Coleman generally clears the room. Captain Beefheart clears the whole house, and the property. I love 'em both.

Sean seems you didn't get a response on the Ponty recommendation, Cosmic Messenger is a good 'ol favorite of mine!
Yesterday I played it and went through a little trip to the past McLaughlin Extrapolation, Abercrombie Timeless, Close to the Edge, Selling England by the Pound, Islands and run out of time .....
There's also a two CD set that covers many different albums I also have it but Cosmic I spin more frequently
