Terrible/Inappopriate songs ...


on an otherwise wonderful release. Know of any? These bug the crap out of me as they are: dumb songs, inappropriate selections as per the rest of the release, and sung very poorly. What is (was) up with them?

1. Miles Davis, "Nothing Like You", on Sorcerer (1962).
2. Tony Williams, "This Night This Song", and, "Once I Loved", a two-fer on Turn It Over (1970).

I very much like both of these releases, but they are spoiled by these insipid songs (IMO) unless I skip them. Know of others such as these clinkers? Must be ones which stick out like sore thumbs on an otherwise good/great release. Cuts which make you exclaim, WTF?

"Bang The Drum All Day" from Todd Rundgren's "Ever Popular Tortured Artist Effect". Not necessarily an "otherwise wonderful" release, but this is a TRULY bad song on an otherwise reasonably satisfying record.
I'm a long time Graham Nash fan but to this day find "Our House" on Deja Vu a major bore.

IMO
I miss the Favorite Track Selection feature on my first CD player-a Magnavox CDP650 which let you choose which songs you liked and skip over the crappy ones automatically from then on. Then I saw one being used for demo purposes at last year's audio show in SF-pretty funny. Maybe the mfr used it to avoid songs that didn't flatter his equipment.
Audiofeil - Right on! Though the singing is still good. A wonderful LP, but for that lousy song which fits better on a Sesame Street episode. Good call.
