But it was natural. Their early stuff had a great bass sound though, right Andy?

Well, theres been plenty-o-dreck in the last 50 years. I think that a lot has to do with how you were when you heard it. "Billy, Don't Be a Hero" was probably **** to an 18 yr. old but was probably passable to a 10 yr. old, lol. Completely subjective. Well, not completely.

Yes, I still love the Herman's Hermits stuff, Freddy and the Dreamers, etc. because I was a kid when it came out, probably some people here think it's less than stellar music, haha!
A great one right now on the ol' antique radio : 'A Thousand Stars in the Sky' Kathy Young and the Innocents.
I use my pod for this one.

I used to run a website called - "the 20 Worst Songs of All Time". You can find the remains of it here:

My personal fave was Clarence Carter's "Patches" but overall, for sheer consistency in producing schlock after schlock, the collected works of Bobby Goldsboro take some beating. Remember, "Honey I Miss You", "Watching Scotty Grow", "Summer (The First Time)" - just gag me with a spoon...

Yeah Bobby Goldsboro did come out with some real sentimental krap, his first song wasn't bad though, had the Pretty Woman drum beat in it, was a rip off though.
Little green apples was pretty lame.
Patches at least had some good players in it, was a little melodramatic though.

"S.A.F.T.E.Y. DANCE" from the early '80s; i think that it was from a group called men without hats ...

I bought disco duck as a 45 with paper route money in the second grade (76-77 ?). It at least was a novelty record

Joe Dolan's 'Make Me An Island' is as corny as they come.

"anything by any of the Osmonds ... pure cheesey **** ..."

Not all of it. "Crazy Horses" rocks as heavily as Deep Purple or any other early-70s contemporary (unbelievable, yes). But then again, I can find something to like in just about any genre ...
