For me?
It's not the music to be embarrassing but the number of glasses!

John Denver- Rocky Mountain High. My excuse was I had a girl in one arm (giving her my "full" attention) and a bottle in the other. She liked John Denver whereas I didn't. However it did sure sound good at the time.

Leo Sayer Silverbird

Bought for me when I was a teenager by my mum (hated it then!) and dug out for a listen at Christmas with a few friends around and (ahem) one or two glasses of red consumed between us.

I must also 'fess up to owning 'Like A Virgin' by Madonna.

Well, it hasn't happened so far as I don't have it, but "All By Myself" with Celin Dion is something that probably could happen when I'm drunk.

I have the original with Eric Carmen, so the idea isn't that far off...

I to have a record with Madonna. Time to start Madonna-haters Anonymous?

Spinning Fred Daggs Greatest Hits went down like a lead balloon...
Was good comedy in the 70's, but nowadays more than just dated :-)

I used to be very fond of Andy Stewart's soulful lament, The Scottish Soldier, the one with the bagpipe solo - but then I discovered the Yardbirds.

If Madonna stuck to music she would be ok, here's the sunday times, best ever complilation for the lady:-

1 Cherish Quite simply one of the greatest pop songs ever. “Romeo and Juliet, they never felt this way, I bet”, indeed.
2 Papa Don’t Preach Her best vocal, and the most musically rewarding of her early songs.
3 Material Girl The defining anthem of the greed-is-good decade?
4 Vogue Did anyone ever master the dance steps? Maybe not, but we sang along all the same.
5 Into the Groove The moment when, with the Desperately Seeking Susan tie-in, she went stratospheric.
6 Like a Prayer The video was condemned as blasphemous, overshadowing this hair-raisingly good song.
7 Ray of Light Always at her best when written off, Madonna discovered rave here, and blazed back into contention.
8 Borderline Impossibly addictive 1980s electro, back when she pretty much owned the genre.
9 Music A return to her dancefloor roots — reductive, in your face, unmistakable.
10 Like a Virgin A helium-voiced come-on, touching the world for the very first time. DC

Oh, if only I still had my Howard Jones album. I leant it my brother in about 1985!

Anyhow, to answer the question, nothing beats 'Beatles, Bach, and Bacharach Go Bossanova' that I borrowed from my folks.

Drank a few glasses, went for CD shopping, got this awful Laurence Hobgood album on Naim. Luckily paid for it just a $1 in a used store.
