look no further than the early - mid-80s mire that the classic, established pantheon of songwriters found themselves in....
Neil Young - Landing On Water/Everybody's Rockin'
Lou Reed - Mistrial
David Bowie - Tonight/Never Let Me Down
Bob Dylan - Saved/Shot Of Love/Empire Burlesque
Eric Clapton - August
Genesis - Invisible Touch
Pink Floyd - The Final Cut/Lapse Of Reason
and of course, my ultimate nomination for this stinker-by-legend honour:
Can - Rite Time.
bought it out of curiosity.
listened to it once.
cried.
listened to Tago Mago for six hours.
felt better.
took Rite Time back to the shop.
