Albums that are sooooo uncool and you like!

[Super Steve Earle]

Jethro Tull Too Old to Rock 'n' Roll Too Young To Die ... anyone?

You're never too old to Rock 'n' Roll. I've just bought two tickets online for Ian Anderson performing Thick as a Brick 1 & 2 at Guildford on the 4th of May. I know it's a playoff night, so I'm hoping Murphy's Law kicks in and we have a match that night. There's always eBay if needed!

 

[Bring back Bryan wade!!]

The best of Baltimora including their UK smash hit Tarzan Boy......

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

I never get bored of listening to this classic:

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

And another fave:

Not cool? certainly cooler than Ocean Colour Scene!!

Disagree mate Caro is cool but Ocean Colour scene were different class, i didn't think your were into

 

[Icy Gull]

Peter Gabriel uncool? Are you sure

40 years on and these guys still sell out concerts, I'd say that was quite cool

The Musical Box (band) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

 

[Icy Gull]

Band on the Run, the only P McCartney (Wings) album that I like though

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

in my top 10. And I don't care one bit.

Blink182 - Enema of the State

Is 'Enema of the State' really regarded as 'soooooooo uncool'?! I loved that album when it came out. It was ridiculously catchy and infectious. A great, great summer pop album IMO. Admittedly their subsequent albums were a bit too formulaic and poppy and it did spawn any number of pale imitations but...

 

[Jam The Man]

Spice & Spiceworld... cant recall the artists responsible though

 

[MattBackHome]

"Hepburn" by Hepburn.

I don't even know why I like it.

 

[Hotchilidog]

The Circus and Progress by Take That

Both Busted albums

Girls Aloud Greatest Hits

and I am sure there are many more uncool classics in my collection.

 

[catfish]

I've always loved Eldorado by ELO.

 

[The Sock of Poskett]

I've always loved Eldorado by ELO.

ELO have delivered some of the best, singalong, radio-friendly pop ever, in my view.
I'm also a bit partial to the odd burst of ... Pilot - and even their modern tribute band, The Feeling. Oh dear.

I may take a look and buy also, just to make sure we make it to the play-offs!

Ha ha thought the OCS thread would make you bite! Really though, i like that album but at the time they were deemed too mainstream to be cool!

 

[*Gullsworth*]

Mate, if you think a band that produced 2 of Paul Weller's guitarists are uncool, then I don't think you know what cool is.

Btw, when I was at school I quite liked roxette, joyride...... Now That's Uncool!!!!

Well yea i agree but even Weller rated poorly on the "cool" scale as he was a mainstream performer, i liked him but must admit the concert i saw at Guildford was utter pants. By the way i could not even begin to describe the meaning of "cool" *





* Neil Young maybe?

I was into OCS before they were big though mate and then they were super cool!

I know a guy who like Jack Johnson Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

 

[darters74]

Manilow, A-Ha, Erasure, Bruce Hornsby, the list is endless!

The only problem with them is the amount of rubbish bands which formed because of them. They were quite unique and that style has only been perfected by them. Any album with "Adams Song" on it cannot be classed as "so uncool". Truely awesome song with a strong message.
