I have listened to Exile On Main Street many times and have multiple issues of it, but I do think it is overrated. It may be because there is always a story about it. Recorded wherever, recording sessions were whatever. It is never about the music. It always has something else attached to it. It became mythical. Lots of stories, a few good songs, many fillers, horrible sound quality.
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!
