What's The Least Listened-To Album In Your Collection?

Finally one I can play.

 

There are a few things I've never listened to. But I'm still sure they're more pleasing to me than Michael Bolton's opera album that came in the mail one day to my favorite coffee house. The proprietress threw it in front of me because she figured she'd probably get the biggest reaction out of me. I tried not to disappoint. But I also stopped her from throwing it in the trash because I wanted to hear how Bolton did opera. (Ironically, more understated than what he does to innocent little pop tunes.)

 

I dropped the needle on maybe 4 or 5 tracks for a total of maybe 5 minutes or so. Despite my immersion in symphonic music, I've never really been any sort of opera buff. This neither sounded that much like fine opera or sounded different or interesting enough to be, well... interesting. It wasn't Mrs Miller, but it wasn't exactly Domingo, either.

I had over 700 CDs around a year ago... I recently went through my entire collection and took around 150 out of my collection... CDs I knew I would never listen to again... to be completely honest, I think I could get rid of most of them... not that I don`t enjoy them when they`re on, I just seem to go through stages where I`ll listen to 4-5 records for 3 months, completely devour them and then move on.

 

Interestingly, I kept all my Jazz and Classical music CDs...

I like to think I' pretty open-minded about different forms of music, but I couldn't get into "Thelonius Monks Greatest Hitsl". It was difficult to listen to. And then there's that Dave Mathews Band CD (forget the name, to lazy to look for it) that was very depressing to listen to. Oh yeah, then there's Matchbox 20's follow-up to the one with "3AM". I was surprised because none of the songs was very catchy, unlike the previous CD where almost all of the songs were.

I almost never spin First Rays of the New Rising Sun. The three other Hendrix albums before that I visit regularly, religiously.

 

But if I for some reason ever owned a Matt & Kim album, that would win the award for least listens - less than once all the way through no doubt.

The sound track from "The First Nudie Musical".

 

It's still in the shrink wrap.

The only reason I have it, is that it was being handed out at the theater.

The only reason I saw it, is because at the time (1975 or 1976), my wife's sister was dating someone who was somehow associated with Bruce Kimmel, (or someone else involved in making the movie).

 

Ron Howard and Cindy Williams in a soft porn flick. Who'd a thunk it? :p:eek:
