    Quite recently the new album by Miles Kane. That thing was so dumb and clichéd, I had to get rid of it! :hurl:

    I agree about never tiring of it. I also have the original US LP, Japanese import CD and pink eight track tape. And, a newer CD, but, I don’t listen to that.

    Awful soppy middle of the road AOR nonsense. And it doesnt even include the worst song of all time, Babe. The only album I've ever given away for fear of it contaminating the rest of my record collection.

    of their hits in the used CD section of Warehouse Music..

    I remember being really let down and it was the first time
    returning anything..

    since then it hasn't been cannon in my collection but I like a few
    tracks

    The Roky Erickson “authorized bootleg” were he sings Dylan tunes. I forget what it’s called.
    Really bad.

    Haha, yes: doing lots of drugs, arguing a lot, and turning in half of a planned double album. :)

    Maybe the 3 x Stones 70's UK Demo copies i bought overnight!

    Why?

    The seller it turns out lacks experience and is one that believes that 'Shoulderless' document holders with bubblewrap suffice on a 4 week Odyssey across the world.

    He picks up on my concern and suggests he could use a truckload of bublewrap that would then cost 18GBP to Australia.

    Help, i am even considering cancelling 1 of the 3 sales such is mu concern for stress and warp!

    (Mentioned in another thread)... Faith No More - King For a Day, Fool for a Lifetime. The Rhino vinyl has a lot of sibilance, so it's unplayable.

    I don't regret this purchase anymore. Just had to play it at the right time and a train journey alone today was the right time. Really enjoyed it.

    I bought this record because of this back cover. I do not believe I've ever played the CD all the way through. So yeah . . .

    As a 16 year old with extremely limited funds (I could only get a new record every month or two), one new release stood out to me as a MUST have. I could not wait to get to the record store to get it. The band had enjoyed a resurgence in popularity and this was the first release of new music since. So I bought it and...

    The Beach Boys 15 Big Ones happened to me. I felt so disappointed, so burned that it took me years to be able to enjoy their music again.

    I listened to it again recently. When I first heard it I found it to be a collecion of late seventies power pop riffs but the songwriting wasn't there for me. It was all very loud and hooky which can be fun but this was not. It was very clean and polished sounding but really not with a lot to say. When I listened again recently my opinion stayed the same. This second time around I wanted to like it more with mature ears but that didn't happen. Oh well.
