What's the least acclaimed album you love?

It's really beautiful. It's the only Lou Reed record I ever listen to anymore (I spent years trying to get into him and the VU before finally giving up).

I still stand by my answer at the start of this thread.

i like mmm too, it is a quite soothing listen.

I just realised it's most likely 'Monsters' by Meat Puppets

Ha; I remember buying that record in high school after hearing Huevos and Up On The Sun, liking both a lot, and wanting more of that; I put it in my Walkman and was instantly like "What is this terrible pseudo-metal?" (I love metal, but that wasn't what I wanted from the Meat Puppets at all.) I turned around and returned it; luckily, my friend's family owned the store and he let me pick something else instead.

First track I heard was 'Light' on the radio, which is a kinda Grateful Dead sounding thing, but I was at home with the heavier stuff on the record, not having heard them before, I love the whole thing, Linn-Drum and all but the last track 'Like Being Alive' is absolutely beautiful.

Well, your post has me revisiting them on Spotify, for the first time in ~30 years, so maybe I'll check it out.

I guess my real answer should be Tremolo by Blue Rodeo, generally regarded (when it's regarded at all) as a generic mid-career MOR album but was genuinely mind-expanding for me as a kid, esp the closing run of songs, which include Cowboy Junkies style slowcore, intricate instrumental gorgeousness, and the closest they ever got to cutting a punk tune.
