Awful songs by bands you love

[Greggery Peccary]

Maybe can even top ‘most important album’ lists, but it’s nowhere near one of the best.

I agree with that. Not sure if it’d be in my top ten of that decade to be honest. Still love it, mind, but Revolver & Abbey Road are miles better.

A lot of the 60s bands have a huge chunk of songs that are woeful. They just released and released and released constantly and too many of them never took the time to really sieve out the shite and release fully quality albums.

You could ditch 80% of the tracks on Please Please Me, From The Beatles, Hard Days Night, Beatles For Sale, and Help! from their back catalogue, and they could have just released two good albums from the songs on all of those.

My neighbour treated us to a couple of hours of early Beatles hits this morning... some very popular tunes, but played back to back they turn into dirgy skiffle stuff with ropey as feck drumming, dodgy progressions, flat vocals blasted out at the same level, always in the same key, and topped off by the godawful caterwalling harmonica.

Always loved Yes.
But Owner of a Lonely Heart was bobbins

That’s their best song. Beats the self indulgent 60s and 70s stuff

Whenever I play Second coming album I skip this track cos I think it's cack.

There's a few absolute shockers on that lp.

There's a few absolute shockers on that lp.

It's the only track I don't like mate, which tracks do you think are absolute shockers?

 

[Stoned Rose]

They’ve got a few weak singles to be fair.

Prepare to be lynched by the Oasis can do no wrong brigade.

 

[dronefromsector7G]

I love ‘Dirt’ by Alice In Chains and their stuff in general but I think Hate to feel is shite.

 

[The Colonel]

Prepare to be lynched by the Oasis can do no wrong brigade.

Most things post Morning Glory were turgid for me...

 

[Stoned Rose]

I love the Bunnymen and the Cure but cannot stand Lips Like Sugar and Friday I’m In Love

Both absolute stormers.

What don't you like about em?
