Guilty Pleasure recording?

I will date myself by this, and hate to admit to it, but one of the reasons that I love getting into vinyl now, is that there is some music that is not available digitally. I wish I could say I was talking about some legendary, sublime classic recording of a great orchestral performace, but instead in this instance I am talking about bad 80's rock.

Right now I am listening to my guilty pleasure record: The Producers "You Make the Heat". No one ever likes it as much as I do when I play it for them. Some have heard "She Shiela", but usually they have not heard the album before, and don't care to again. But I love it.

Anyone have bad, guilty pleasure records, that are not available digitally, probably because there is no demand?

Yeeeeup, that's the spirit!
I have quite a few, one them is "Blues obscurities" a cbs compil from the 70s. Many classical & some jazz (esp european) which I don't remember as I'm at the office.

Don't feel guilty: it's neither fattening, nor impolite, nor immoral

My guiltiest pleasure is listening to the CRIK Fm The Lynx Super 70's internet radio station.

Here you will hear all the guiltiest AM radio pop pleasures from the seventies that you probably haven't heard since for over thirty years in fidelity that far surpasses anything you might have heard back in the day.

WARNING: if you cannot handle "The Partridge Family", Abba and Barry Manilow just to name a few, please, please stay clear!

On the other hand, your system may just be so good these days that even this sugar coated pop candy sounds great.

OK, Mapman mentioned the Partridge Family, so I feel better about the Producers now.
