You know the feeling. You wake up one day and peer at your record collection and realize you have 8-13 albums by Styx, the Bay City Rollers or Richard Marx etc. What band made the largest dent in your wallet before you realized they sucked?

Halfway through High school I realized I had 3 KoRN albums and 2 Limp Bizkit albums!

wow. well, perhaps it's just me but I wouldn't have a problem owning Styx's Kilroy Was Here and I don't mind owning Richard's Repeat Offender.

But, i'll check out my discs later and letcha know..

Do discs you bought but regret buying because the artist turns out to personally be a schmuck count..?

C & C Music Factory. The things we do for trim...

Creed, I bought their first 2 Albums and a few import singles.

I'm kind of embarrassed of some of the cds I bought as a blind buy, never hearing them before and not knowing who the group was (at the time at least.)

Union Underground
Godhead
Speak no Evil

to a slightly lesser extent: These ones have some redeeming value to me.

Slipknot
Taproot
StoneSour

Dream Theater

They are well regarded on these boards and this led to a blind buy (I can usually trust you guys).

Kinda dug at first but they just didn't hold up on repeat listens. Had to eBay the two albums I had away.

Other than that, I was into a lot of crappy ska.

Hmm, probably Staind and Stabbing Westward. I started buying CDs very very late though. First CDs I bought was when I was a junior in high school. Got Nirvana Unplugged, and Cream of Clapton. Still some of my favorite CDs (although at this point i own just about everything clapton)

limp bizkit's first two records

Glad to say I don't own them anymore.

Hammer, Ice, and I'm too embarassed to say some of the others.

Insane Clown Posse (Have about 15 of their albums)
Puff Daddy (Had his first album, and about 5 singles)

You win.

ALL HAIL THE KING!

St. Anger.

I'd like to forget that I bought Limp Bisquit's Chocolate Starfish CD and the Family Values tour CD with the shitty diaper on the back. At least they didn't lie about it though.

No embarrassments.

Even the stuff that, in hindsight, seems painfully weird or out of place I bought because at one point I liked it.

So for that reason, no embarrassment.

Bobby Brown. Don't Be Cruel.

Asia 'Alpha'

I have a gospel album by Terry Bradshaw.

theres no shame in owning that.

I can't even put into words... I'm sorry, but that's just too awesome. I'm sure it would make a great companion piece to a Jim Nabors album.

I'm continually ridiculed for my ABBA albums (yes, I own them all), but I'm not embarrassed in the least. I did own a New Edition cassette when I was younger, but hey, what do kids know?

All of my Indigo Girls albums (it was a phase), Sarah McLachlan, Jewel, Collective Soul, Goo Goo Dolls, and a few others in the same vein. I hide them all at my parents' house.

i had the power rangers soundtrack, and the first ace of base albums on tape.

ABBA Gold has some serious street cred. Far from being an embarrassment, it's one of the main weapons in my I'm-cooler-than-you-because-I realize-how-cool-this-is arsenal.
