Top 5 albums you wish you'd never have bought

 

Some I still have, some I’ve sold:

 

1)  Billy Corgan – thefutureembrace.  It starts out just OK, and gets worse from there.  Clearly not as good as his stuff with the Pumpkins.

2)  Goo Goo Dolls – Gutterflower.  This was the beginning of the end for this band.

3)  Club Cutz.  This one has The Macarena.  What was I thinking?

4)  Los Lonely Boys – Sacred.  Their first album had such promise.  What happened?  There are a few good songs, but not nearly enough.

5)  Knut Buen – Hardanger Fiddle Music Of Norway.  Sure, it’s neat having an album of Hardanger Fiddle music.  But does it have to be so boring?  And 23 songs long?!

Top Five On Friday–4/8/11

Top 5 artists you wouldn't mind having dinner with.

Tell us why you chose who you did. This can be any artist past/present. Couples count as one..just in case you'd pick John and Yoko...Paul and Linda...etc.

1) Prince.  Just to see what he eats.
2) Robert Randolph.  Now you KNOW this guy knows where to find some good down home cookin’.  If we’re lucky, he might have his mama cook for us.
3) Aimee Nash of The Black  Ryder.  She’s awesome and incredibly beautiful.
4) Jeff Buckley (if he were still around).  He seems like he’d be entertaining company.
5) Michael Doucet of BeauSoleil.  Who cooks better than Cajuns?  No one.

From The Music Memoirs:

Top 5 songs you wish were just April Fools Day Jokes

1)  “Achy Breaky Heart” by Billy Ray Cyrus.  Good lord.  And this made Billy Ray famous, who in turn made his daughter famous.  Without this song, they’d not bother us.

2)  “All Together Now” by The Beatles.  Really, Paul?  You can do better than this.

3)  “Behind Blue Eyes” by Limp Bizkit.  What did The Who do to deserve this?

4)  “Honky Tonk Badonkadonk” by Trace Adkins.  I’m still not convinced this wasn’t an April Fool’s Joke

5)  “With Arms Wide Open” by Creed.  Hey, Scott Stapp, you can put those arms to better use.  Like, for instance, throwing this song away for good.
