GREAT MUSIC - SO POORLY RECORDED...

HI TO ALL... Made a change to isolating my speakers, so I'm pawing thru my CDs and listening for the changes/improvements - and I put in one of the all-time greats (IMHO), and I am still so disappointed in the quality of the recording:
BAT OUTTA HELL by Meatloaf (luv ELLEN FOLEY ON "... Dashboard Lights..."): UGH!

What are your personal disappointments?

Another for me: THE DANCE by Fleetwood Mac : OVERLY Bass heavy

Tedeschi Trucks Band. Both 'Signs'and 'Let me Get by" which is quite good and both almost impossible to listen to on a good system. Have to listen in the car to get through as song - unless I'm cooking in the next room at home.

R.E.M. for sure. One of my favorite bands despite the sucky SQ. Most conspicuous offender—Fables of the Reconstruction”—such a great album of music but sounds like crap. I would put Springsteen on the list—“Born to Run” at the top in terms of gap between greatness of music and anemic sound.

I know many will disagree, but as great of a drummer Mitch Mitchell was, the way his drums were recorded with Hendrix always sounded terrible to me.  Sounded like one mic in a garage.
