What are your 3 least listened to albums?
 
Follow up to the 3 most listened. Let's flip it. 3 albums you don't listen to as much (don't include solo albums)

The Circle - dated and boring
Have a Nice Day - first two are great then poor until bonus tracks.
Lost Highway - love memory and any other day...rest are dull

I like a few songs on each album so they get played but as far as from start to finish, these 3 are mine.

Bon Jovi
7800 Fahrenheit

It's more than 3, but I don't remember when was the last time I listened to either of them.

If we include solo material, Richie's albums would be my list. But, barring those:

The live album (very poorly put together and a major disappointment)
The Circle (topically dated and too much political content)
What About Now (I liked it at first, but listening to it brings up the feelings associated with everything going on with the band at the time, so I just let it rest. And it's a lot like The Circle part 2 to me)

I didn't include TLFR as it was so shit I've banished it from memory.
The live album was awful.
On the AAA documentary they were saying they were recording for double live album so to get what we did 11 years later was dreadful.

It's kinda difficult to choose because of the way more recent albums get released in combination with the ease of MP3/4/FLAC Etc...

Back in the day, we had Tapes and CDs (and Records) so you were kinda forced to listen to the albums... It was effort to fast forward through songs and switch out your tapes and cds...

Now you have the options to scroll through songs, shuffle, and preset your own choices...

When new albums get released, you obviously tend to listen to those albums more. Because I'm more of a MP3/Shuffle listener now, I could only list my least favorite albums:

1. What About Now
2. Lost Highway
3. Crush & Bounce are tied

However, just because they are my lease favorite, doesn't mean that I don't like them. There are some decent songs on each of them...

Exactly. Just cos you don't listen as much don't mean you don't like them.
That said I was listening to HAND the other day and I'd really forgotten how poor this album was.
Bit too religious for me as well

I haven't listened to 'This House Is Not For Sale', 'Burning Bridges' and 'What About Now' all the way through. There are songs from these albums I haven't even heard.

This I find interestingly weird... You are a die-hard fan, have over 8 thousand posts here but haven't listened to 3 albums all the way through? What happened? It was so bad that you couldn't make it through the last 12 minutes?

A. It's okay to not like the more current releases but how can you fairly judge an albums without listening to it all the way through?

B. As a die-hard, it should be almost a given to know every song released by the band. It drives me nuts when I talk to a die-hard fan (which doesn't happen too often), bring up a song and they say 'they don't know it'!!!

I was talking to a long time Bon Jovi cover band after a show one time and they told me they didn't know anything after HAND (really just Who Says and the song HAND)... I was like WTF, you're a Bon Jovi cover band and you only know half the catalog!!!!
