Pet Sounds - I like some beach boys stuff but this is so entirely...what's the word...milktoasted. Disney doo wop

Any "classic" Dylan album

Exile on Main St by The Stones - enjoyable, but a classic? Nah. Too long and lacks killer melodies

I agree with Exile. I loved the albums they released before Exile, but never got that Exile hype.

Like a Virgin

London Calling - love the title track and Train in Vain, the rest

The Stone Roses - I was excited recently to discover that incredible song 'Waterfall' and I couldn't wait to hear the rest.
Now that I have....I just don't get the hype. I hope I do someday.

Give "I Am The Resurrection" another spin Abigail, preferably at full volume.

I think The Rolling Stones, Exile In Main Street album is overrated. It just seems to ramble on and on.

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
Tales Of Kidd Funkadelic
Köln Concert
Heavy Weather

Any Yello record.

I don't get this one either, and I like a lot of other fusion / electric jazz from the 70s, including Jaco Pastorius' self titled album.

You know, I like it, but it kinda lags in spots. I thought Hard Day's Night was better.

Nirvana-In Utero
Beatles-White Album
Any great album of RadioheadM
Any Van Morrison classic album

Off the Wall, sure it's got some really great material but only half of it is any good.

FunkJam said:

Shoot Out the Lights--Richard & Linda Thompson. I've always heard this is one of the best albums of all time. It's aight....

Grace--Jeff Buckley. again it's all right, but a little squishy for me.

I love Kate Bush but I hate The Dreaming.

Completely, totally with you on Pet Sounds. And also its modern equivalent The Flaming Lips' Soft Bulletin.

NDRU said:

With you on that..he gets on my nerves, as does Antony.

I tried it, just wasn't feeling it. Maybe you need a British perspective to understand these things. I'm from Wisconsin!

and Fools Gold

Wonderwall said:

Fools Gold - I kinda like that one. The guitar reminds me of somebody, like the Soup Dragons or Stereo MCs

abigail05 said:

London Calling is one of my all time favorites, but I never got the Stone Roses either. They just seemed dull.

NDRU said:

London Calling to me is like one big long boring english reggae record. That's what I remember of it anyway. I want to love it...just hasn't happened yet

NDRU said:

I really wish people would get off his jock. It's OK, but nothing anywhere close to mind-blowing.

LittleSmedley said:

You don't get 'Blonde on Blonde' or 'Bringing It All Back Home'?

I suppose if they don't interest you then they don't interest you but those 2 in particular absolutely make me shake my head in awe when you consider how far forward he took songwriting. I can't think of a mediocre song on either.

Pet Sounds is an odd album but there is definitely a melancholic edge to that record.

I don't see it

you have some issues...

MendesCity said:

I adore Soft Bulletin! And I see it more as a modern equivalent of Sgt. Pepper.

novabrkr said:

Novabreaker! Someone has gotten a hold of your org-password, I know you couldn't have written that yourself! "I'm never gonna tell it" could be a hit today, even 20 years from now. The title track, a trip and a half.

Well, my confession is Marvin's 'what's going on'. It's growing, but when I first heard it, it lacked groove. I wanted a hard-hitting funk-groove, and WGO didn't deliver. Nowadays, James Jamersons basslines are growing on me, but it's been a long road...

PURE TORTURE!

Only for the pseudo intellectual music fans!

IMHO, it has some of the best soul songs made over the last 2 decades. IMHO.
