Absolutely worst LP that you own & enjoy?

Everybody has one: An LP that is just not considered an audiophile piece but when everyone else has left put on and enjoys with a tingle in their toe...

I have a few:
Men without hats: Pop goes the world (Synth delux)
Bles Bridges: I'm the eagle, you're the wind (Local Artist with more bling than Elvis)
ABBA: All their albums...

What can I say? We all have a "dark side" that would send the next running!

Cheers,
Dewald Visser

My eyes have just bulged at some of the LP's that people are classifying as being bad. Iron Maiden?/Springsteen?/Pink Floyd? and everything in the 80/s???............shurely shome mishtakes.

I'm not sure how many audiophiles would consider The Number of the Beast an audiophile piece but I love it. Great album

Hi Nrostov,
I agree its a stonking album by the 90mph brit rockers, fantastic live performers also.
But IMHO it is an audiophile quality recording, as are the others mentioned. I have both vinyl and cd versions. They sound real and convincing to my ears through my system.

Gawdbless,

Yes I agree that the recording sounds pretty good. I just think it doesn't fall into that snooty, mainstream, audiophile category. You know Diana Krall, Norah Jones, Kind of Blue etc.
