Yes 'tis and rumor is not rumor, it is true about NOT playing music and NOT singing until Mike Nesmith exploded and they dove headfirst into actually "being" what they were...and they WERE generational cool. Anyone remember Head??? I remember the album sized "one-way mirror" plastic promo sheets. Had dozens of 'em...wonder if they are rare or still out there

I knew that he had opened for them Jeff, but that was a very interesting article. Can you imagine Mike Nesmith was in London having dinner with John Lennon, Paul McCartney and Eric Clapton? What a group!!

Only kidding.    340 and not a bad one?     Impressive.    Kudos my man, kudos to you.     

I'd say I've got 25 bad albums (about 5% of my collection).

Re: Most Embarrassing Albums

Back to the original post...I've had MANY MANY that MANY of you would find displeasing to your pallette. I remember seeing this on TV http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yu2xuknc … re=related  and really liked it! But not this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yu2xuknc … re=related ( yikes yikes yikes yikes yikes). Yes that's actually Kurt Russell pre Escape From New York....
My sisters had Osmonds records as did my girlfriends, but i did not like them, except...The only record I ever had from The Osmonds was a 45 RPM single of Down By The Lazy River. No apology, no embarassment...You all are gonna be the ones embarassed when Joe actually covers this and I REALLY MEAN he could do it justice, you'll see. 

Rock ON & Keep the Faith,

But records I was embarassed of.... still thinking and I'll get back to the original post IF I can tongue

Can't deny the Osmonds were kings when it came to harmonising.....even if the target market was teeny bopper.

Re: Most Embarrassing Albums

I can honestly only recall buying one album (yes, in the vinyl days) that I detested so much that I got rid of it again - Lou Reed's 'Berlin'.

I'm sure glad you never tried to hit me with Eminem (spit) or Backstreet Boys (barf). (I apologize for 'belittling' these choices, I'm not as saintly as you are.) wink
