    I'm not sure about forgotten because I don't know how popular it was in the first place but I'd say 'Broken English' by 'Marianne Faithfull'. It's a classic album that no one ever seems to mention.

    Someone said 'Throwing Copper', which I also agree with.

    I find it strange that more people don't go nuts over the brilliance that is Spin Doctors' 'Pocketful of Kryptonite.' Lovely album.
    'We're learning songs for baby Jesus' birthday. His mum and dad were Merry and Joseph. He had a bed made of clay and the three kings bought him Gold, Frankenstein and Merv as presents.'

    Yep, that's an old classic that seems to be forgotten. I'm SICK TO DEATH of two prince's though.

    Usually, if I've forgotten an album there was a good reason for it
    All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

    They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all
