Time to own up. You know what they are, they've been lurking in your music collection for some time now and it's time to own up to 'em. Ideally, they're the ones you thought were really great but now you realise are really naff but they must be ones you own. Some, come out, you closet Zarah Leander fans.
To start you off, here's mine (or one of them) - Lena Martell's one day at a time

Re: Criminal Records
I've got a compilation album with "Let it all hang out" by Jonathan King on it.
I've also got a Gary Glitter lp and a couple by Culture Club.

Re: Criminal Records
One man's Criminal is another man's groovy...and I am old enough to say 'groovy' and get away with it.
Slade now have mucho street cred amongst the rock cognoscenti, and Boy George always had a great voice...which doesn't excuse his major hat fetish of his later years. Gary Glitter - That's just sad, and Jonathan King refused to return my phone calls when I was trying to get a record deal so he stinks.
I'll now fess up to still enjoying Frankie goes to Hollywood. The Power of Love is an absolute classic

Re: Criminal Records
Hmm. Maybe I should have called this thread Marmite Tunes! :D
C'mon though there's surely more than just me who can remember Kenny Everett on Capital in the 70s asking people to send in their worse record and then making an album out of them. Although obviously K's comments were the funniest bit. Is no one out there admitting to having a copy of 'I want my Baby Back' lurking?

Re: Criminal Records
Of course Jimmy Cross's was a comedy record and should therefore be disqualified.

And, as a slight divertissimo, does anyone remember Napoleon XIV and this song?

Re: Criminal Records
Not only do I remember it, I remember hearing it for the first time on Jukebox Jury. I also remember the follow up "Little Red Tricycle." How sad is is that?terrybooth wrote:
