Do you have, in your collection, albums by artists that you once admired but over the years have come to dislike or even detest? I have two.
U2 - I have 5 U2 albums, mostly from the 80s and one recent one that was downloaded to my account without my consent (Songs of Innocence). I used to like them back in 1981 but these days I can't stand to listen to anything that involves that monumental hypocrite, Bono. You know, the one who tells us to give generously whilst shielding his obscene wealth in various tax havens.
Madonna - I am aghast to note that I have 8 Madge albums from 1983 right up to 2000. The trouble is Madonna has shown that she is not an artist at all but a business manager and like all CEOs she taps genuinely talented people and takes the credit. Nile Rogers, Pat Leonard and many many others are her story, not her.
I cannot sell these albums as they are part of my history, but I cannot see a time when I will ever play them again.
Any others that people feel they've been hoodwinked by?
