Worst record ever?


I had the misfortune of spotting Sarah Vaughan's "Songs of the Beatles" at my local record store and, intrigued, I bought it since it was only $2. I'm still traumatized a few hours after listening to it; who and why would ever release a record that bad? I love Sarah as a jazz singer but her rendition of the Beatles' songs is absolutely atrocious. I just can't believe someone made a decision to actually release it.

"Indiana Wants Me, Lord I Can't Go Back There" by an artist whose name I cannot remember.  Absolutely the worst.  "Seasons in the Sun" by Terry Jacks was also pretty bad.  Both are Top 40 hits, circa 1971.
 
I remember Ry's "Bop Till You Drop"--the only LP I remember giving away.  What a disappointment.
