I was unsure of, I haven't bought a C.D. since the late 90's because I can download a song in one minute, sometimes even faster.

Bob Dylan, Under the Red Sky. At least there are a couple of good songs on Knocked Out Loaded and Down in the Groove. Red Sky has only one good song ("Born in Time") played badly and with an immature version of the lyrics - it wouldn't jell into its best form until the winter 1997 tour leg.

One of the few times BD followed a great record with a stinker. Usually there's two goodies back-to-back in each decade following the 1960s. I'd blame Don Was if BD wasn't so just-fell-out-of-bed cavalier about making albums.

Yes I agree to that....partly, as I do like the song Under The Red Sky as well. Rest of the album is...not much to speak about - and the production is poor.
The 1989 Oh Mercy outtake version of Born In Time is also great BTW...almost as good as the 97/98 live versions

Ohhhhh my..... Sad

I really can't think of anything that is truly bad or embarrassing. I pick and choose carefully.

Interesting, the difference between buying a CD {and the idea of concept albums from the "old days"} and simply downloading a song nowadays. I am an entire album person myself. With all the downloading of single songs now, artists are not pushed to put out a project with 8-10 quality songs. That's really a shame. Can you imagine having an album like Exile, or Who's Next, or After the Goldrush, and only finding a song or two that you would want to own???

My worst LP could be Charlie Watts' Long Ago & Far Away

Boz Scaggs "Down 2 then left" - vinyl.
"Night" by Night - bought the LP for 1 song and never played the fucka again!
"In through the out door" - bad, bad, bad

As for cd's - not sure. I dont really buy them anymore. Probably have to say Jagger's 3 rd solo record (whatever the fuck it was called - i cant remember!). I nearly cried when i finished (endured!) listening to it. Cried that i wasted $20.00 on that piece of crap.

Shit!

NO WAIT!!!

I've found it. I can live with a Symphonic Rolling Stones. But I found my REO SPEEDWAGON CD- THE ENCORE COLLECTION. And it's not the music that bugs me. It's the picture on the cover.

Worst one was "the ambient collection" by art of noise. but that wasn't really a cd, just a bunch of mp3s. and i deleted them.

I kinda like under the red sky. as a matter of fact the title track was stuck in my head last week. worst dylan may be knocked out loaded, but i like most of the tracks ("my god they killed him" is awful, though).
