Real Stinkers

There was a recent thread about consecutive great albums by your favorite artists. How about turning it on it's head? What is the WORST album by your FAVORITE artist. The one where they REALLY stunk up the joint? The one that it pained you to listen to? The one where everybody went "What were they thinking?"

I'll start off, at the risk of picking a fight - Captain Fantastic and The Brown Dirt Cowboys by Elton John. Except for "Someone Saved My Life Tonight", I never really cared for the rest of the album.

Ivanj, I could say "Anything by Eagles" but they're not my FAVOURITE artists as the author mentioned.

I've always enjoyed the music of the Talking Heads and David Byrnes's solo efforts. However, I was very disappointed in his lastest release after 4 years: Look into the Eyeball.

I find, Look into the Eyeball lacks the creative energy, passion, and rhythm of David Byrne's previous releases.

Great question...I'll have to give it some thought...but in a little broader overall thought:.. It seems, to me, that many artists that I have enjoyed through the years turn out 2 or 3 great albums...then downhill from there.

Cowboy Junkies "Open" was a big disappointment to me and I'm a big Junkies fan. I love all the rest of their albums. No Cheers on this one. Craig
