It says of all time Alistair. No one gives a shit about any of them. No fucker would have heard any of them to know if they were overrated or not.
That was my 2nd.
What’s the Story Morning Glory
Dark Side of The Moon
Sgt Pepper doesn’t sound particularly great now, but it was truly seminal. It does boast some amazing tracks like “a day in the life”, but it hasn’t aged as well as say Revolver or Rubber Soul which are both timeless. Still, I bet it was fucking mind blowing at the time. Think of what came before and after it.
And as far as mixed albums go…
Cankles-McJeggings I used to love that as a teenager. Could not imagine myself putting it on in any circumstance now. I also skip Another Brick in the Wall when listening to Pulse (my main Pink Floyd regular, since it works as a best of and has the whole of Dark Side of the Moon performed).
Any album by The Beatles.
Not sure if they sold enough to be classed as overrated, but they always come up the ‘100 Albums You Have To Hear Before You Die’ polls, so could add Lou Reed - Revolver and The Velvet Underground & Nico.
