It\u2019s natural to get excited when your favorite artist puts out a new album, but on occasion that excitement turns to disappointment when the album isn’t\u00a0as great as you\u2019d hoped it would be.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Rolling Stone<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/a> is examining that very subject with its\u00a0just-released list of\u00a0the 50 most disappointing albums of all time.<\/span><\/p>\n

The mag notes that albums on the list aren\u2019t necessarily bad, but were considered disappointing when they came out. Also, some disappointing albums are only disappointing because of the artist who released them, with the mag noting they could be \u201cseen as a masterpiece if almost anyone else” recorded them.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Topping the list is John Lennon<\/strong>\u2019s 1972 release,\u00a0<\/span>Some Time in New York City<\/span><\/em>, calling the protest songs on the album \u201chalf-a****, at best,\u201d and noting they \u201cseemed dated almost instantly.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The mag adds, \u201c<\/span>Some Time in New York City\u00a0<\/span><\/em>is as disposable as the newspapers on the cover,” referring to the album’s artwork, which featured a fake newspaper front page.<\/span><\/p>\n

Coming in at #2 is The Rolling Stones<\/strong>\u2019 <\/span>Their Satanic Majesties Request<\/span><\/em>, followed by Bob Dylan<\/strong>\u2019s <\/span>Self Portrait<\/span><\/em> at #3, David Bowie<\/strong>\u2019s <\/span>Tonight<\/span><\/em> at #4 and Guns N\u2019 Roses<\/strong>\u2019 <\/span>Chinese Democracy<\/span><\/em> at #5.<\/span><\/p>\n

Rounding out the top 10 are Bruce Springsteen<\/strong>\u2019s <\/span>Human Touch<\/span><\/em>, The Beach Boys<\/strong>\u2019 <\/span>Smiley Smile<\/span><\/em>, Stevie<\/strong> Wonder<\/strong>\u2019s <\/span>Journey Through The Secret Life of Plants<\/span><\/em>, Yes<\/strong>\u2019 <\/span>Tales From Topographic Ocean<\/span><\/em> and Michael Jackson<\/strong>\u2019s <\/span>Invincible<\/span><\/em>.<\/span><\/p>\n
