but ended up with it being one of your favourites?

I guess many of you will never have heard of it but for me it was

Deja Vu - Crosby Stills Nash and Young.

Selling England By The Pound - Genesis

" See the fat old lady outside the saloon
laying out the credit cards, she plays fortune
The deck is uneven right from the start
And all of the players are playing their part"


"Romeo Locks his basement Flat and scurries up the stairs
With Head held high and floral tie, a weekend millionaire
I will make my bed , wiv er tonight, he cries
Can he fail Armed with his chocolate surprise"

Cinema Show - banks and Rutherford

Good call DTG, I still play that album regularly

When the sun beats down and I lie on the bench,
I can always hear them talk.
Me, I'm just a lawnmower
You can tell me by the way I walk

NOFX - So Long And Thanks For All The Shoes
Disliked it so much I almost took it back for a refund, soon turned into one of my faves. Still to this day cant understand why I hated it so much :glare:

London's Calling by The Clash. When I bought it on a 1st listen , I hated it as I thought the Clash had sold out punk. Didnt take me long to get it and its been my favourite album of all time since about a yearafter it came out.

Although liked plenty of albums, listened to them far too much, and ended up hating them.

I think we've all been there. Many albums I could apply that too. Usually go through fazes, I'll drive myself mad listening to an album, won't listen to it for a long while, find it again, and repeat the whole process...
