What was your most disappointing album purchase?


Since we have been listing “best debut albums”, I thought I might ask which albums members purchased, based upon one song, and with the expectation that other songs on the album would be good, but that album was a big disappointment.

I will start with the album by the group, Six Pence None The Richer, that had their big hit “Kiss Me”.   The rest of that album was trash!  Nothing I wanted to listen to and I found it hard to believe the same group had done the hit song.

This question might seem similar to “One Hit Wonders”, but I think it is different, as usually those groups made other music that was at least listenable.   My question refers to albums that had one listenable song, period!

The last 4 Steve Earle albums. I don't have and probably won't get his new one.
Come Clean by Puddle of Mud.
Honestly the song Blurry is fantastic but as you say Bob, the rest of the album sounds like it was recorded by a totally different artist... A pretty poor artist!

Ok, She Hates Me is funny but that's it
@jsd52756, haha haha . . . now that’s a bad album!

I love Steely Dan, and I have read that some members here even like this one, but their album Gaucho is a snorefest.  Sounds like very depressing funeral music to me.

A friend had Billy Ray Cyrus’ album with Achy Breaky Heart.  Even she admitted that the rest of the album was meh . . she would play the hit track on repeat and I tell you it doesn’t get better with repetition.  smh
