Your favourite recordings that everyone else hates

Any of you have favourites that were rejected by reviewers and / or the public in general ? Well, here's your chance to bare your soul and plead your case before the Audiogon Court of Jesters : )

How about discs that you love even though the recordings are decidedly "lo-fi" ? Bootleg's don't really count, but you can list them anyhow : ) Sean

Sean, I realize that most of Elvis Costellos work has been well received by critics and fans, but this album got panned. It is a 1981 album of covers of country standards (everything from Patsy Cline & Merle Haggard to The Flying Burritos) recorded in Nashville. I have the original LP and the sound is much better than most of his early (best) recordings. Don't care what the critics say or that it didn't sell well, this album is alot of fun.
