Absolutely worst LP that you own & enjoy?

Everybody has one: An LP that is just not considered an audiophile piece but when everyone else has left put on and enjoys with a tingle in their toe...

I have a few:
Men without hats: Pop goes the world (Synth delux)
Bles Bridges: I'm the eagle, you're the wind (Local Artist with more bling than Elvis)
ABBA: All their albums...

What can I say? We all have a "dark side" that would send the next running!

Cheers,

"Surfin' Bird" by the Trashmen. So bad it's actually fun to hear. Kind of like Hillary Clinton.

Nrostov, thanks for that info I will check them out as I only have the basic (original) copies on vinyl (and on cd also), which all sound cracking, especially Black In black. My fav piece of music by them has to be 'Thunderstruck', always a goody to impress old friends.........awesome.

Hey Audiofeil,

The 45 rpm 7" Surfin' Bird was the very first piece of new vinyl I ever bought (1964, I believe). A couple of years ago someone reisuued the 12" LP of the Trashmen with this on it and I picked it up. What a gas after 40 plus years to revisit that place again. I shamelessly pull it out for the finale at audio meetings chez Acresverde. Sounds great on those Indras (yeah, like something doesn't).

Gawdbless,

Back in Black sounds great too. Also Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap. That's another one of my favorite AC/DC albums.

You know what else sounds great: Black Sabbath Paranoid.

Acresverde, you have a good memory. 1964 on the Garrett label. Can't recall ever seeing another recording on Garrett.
I use Indra as well but it's still "Surfin' Bird".
