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.

All albums by Neil Young and Crazy Horse. And the last 3-4 by Neil Young. Most of the hard rock 80's bands.
I have all of Ry Cooder's recordings except "bop Til You Drop".  I gave it to my cousin who then tried to give it back. I'm not sure where it ended up but I know where it should be!
I agree that Ry is great, however "pro's" look/listen to music differently than I. So their opinions don't carry any more weight than other music lovers.  I do enjoy reading bdp24's thoughts, though. And other contributors as well.
