Great artist, guff album - named and shamed!
NevermindNevermind by Nirvana
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £1.58
Their weakest album, with terrible production. So it has a couple of hit singles on it, so what? BUY INSTEAD: In Utero, Bleach
LoadLoad by Metallica
Buy new: £6.98 / Used from: £4.10
After the slick and patchy Black Album, the rot well and truly set in here. So awful I have never got past track 6. BUY INSTEAD: Ride The Lightning
The Soft ParadeThe Soft Parade by The Doors
Buy used from: £2.15
Horribly misjudged concept album that almost killed their career. Wild Child is OK though, and Touch Me is a laugh (Jim does Tom Jones). BUY INSTEAD: The Doors, Strange Days, LA Woman
Brick By BrickBrick By Brick by Iggy Pop
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £2.49
Dull and frustratingly commercial throughout. I heard this was his best album of the 90s! It isn't. BUY INSTEAD: American Caesar
Never Let Me Down: RemasteredNever Let Me Down: Remastered by David Bowie
Buy new: £3.98 / Used from: £1.25

One of the most exciting live bands today, and they follow up Fever To Tell with this! Dreary, samey rubbish. BUY INSTEAD: Fever To Tell, Master EP
Heaven and HellHeaven and Hell by Black Sabbath

Sabbath had a great sound, Dio an amazing voice. Put em together and you get...? Complete tosh apparently. BUY INSTEAD: Paranoid, Vol 4, Master Of Reality
One Hot MinuteOne Hot Minute by Red Hot Chili Peppers
