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!

There are some DREADFUL albums listed here! " I love Steely Dan, and I have read that some members here even like this one, but their album Gaucho is a snorefest." bob540-I have for the longest time tried to like that album. That album seems to be a "must have" for some reason, especially audiogeeks. It has the "80’s sound" which I lump in with the awful "smooth Jazz" which also became popular. SD to me is pre Aja, though I still enjoy pulling out my AB1006 "stamper" copy now and then. Six Pence None the Richer-OUCH!another band in the dead zone(1980-present). I found the Seattle scene the only genre that saved the period. Kajagogo- my girlfriend at the time, had a little sister who was in love with Lamahl. I was in a serious "Classic R&R" mourning period. All my heroes were getting old and stale. https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/weird-news/limahl-budgie-world-champion-budgie-2901973 Comments on noted albums- I take offense to Who’s Live at Leeds getting the thumbs down. Perhaps it wasn’t played LOUD enough? Keith Moon- yeah, just bad. King Crimson-I have a plain old domestic press and kept in context, sounds good. Just proves its the pressing, and a crapshoot. Victim of Love- What the heck happened after GYBR? Stones- I gave it some time to warm up to it. Compare it to their 80’s run, then it clicks. |
