FabSwingers.com forum: Ever bought a really shite album?

By (user no longer on site) OP

I bought "Bigger, better, faster, more" by 4 Non Blondes back in early 90's simply on the strength of the single "What's Up?", which I will say is one of my favourite songs that I seem to include in any compilation cd that I create myself to play in the car, and it's an ever present on my mp3 player.

The album though is utter shite and I've never owned a worse album.

How about you lot, what you think?

Might be a slightly contentious choice this one, but also

Snow Patrol : Eyes Open

Bought on the strength of Chasing Cars

The worst concert I ever saw was Paul Weller!

Shittest album was Flash Gordon soundtrack. It was the first album I bought, really wished I could have gone back to Woolworths for a refund

I bought one of those compilation 'Reggae' albums because the three or four tracks they featured on the telly advert were good. Turns out they were the only decent ones on the entire double album. All the others were just a dirge and most of them I hadn't even heard of. What a complete waste of money!

Got to admit it was one of Paul Wellers recent ones, so bad I can't even remember it's name

Oh and a Sting CD that was ancient hymns and chants...

Took it back to Tesco after saying someone bought me it for a present

I've got several. I'm awful for buying CDs on the basis of one track, or compilations for a few tracks.

I've got some howlers in my collection.

I'm trying to think of an example.... um...

Shite Albums.

To be honest I'm a downloader of music, so if it is shite then a simple delete solves the problem!

No money wasted!

Gong are a great band... admittedly Camembert Electrique is not their best...try Angels Egg or Shamal...probably too weird for most people but brilliantly put together.

That is in English and the artist and LP title in order. I suggest you might need some English lessons
