Last weekend it was the records you should listen to before you take a dirt nap. Today, it's "people who made albums and you wished they'd died first". he had predicted this list would rear it's head in about six months...HA! Gotcha!!
So, without further "a-doo"...bold text indicates money I should have just burned or flushed.
1.House of Freaks...Tantilla...god awful duo apeing Tears for fears with a crushing lack of success, even on Tears baseline.
2.Venus Beads...Incision...yes please, my throat.
3.Anything by Micheal Bolton...I remember the SNL skit where his head explodes, a fitting end.
4.Anything by Yoko Ono...'nuff said.Too bad she wasn't with John that night...no, won't go there.
5.E Pluribus Funk...Grand Funk Railroad...when it's over, it's fucking over, and this album is testimony to a really horrible grand funk railroad derailment.
I had a hard time coming up with this list because there are some that you buy that have one or two good songs yet the bulk of it sucks, and then you have a band whose body of work is great, and then they churn out a real turd (see GFR above) to meet contractual obligations or they just dry up or they get so full of themselves they think they can just fart in harmony for an hour and the fans will eat it up.Zappa's lumpy gravy is a fine example of what you get when you polish a turd...a shiney turd.
[Listening to: Treading Water - Venus Beads - Incision (4:58)]
Just to be sure...I'm sure.
