"gaucho" as a 'lost classic' or 'critically underappreciated' is the biggest strawman going today. i mean, i grew up with it and always loved it; the past four years have seen repeated claims of 'it's so good! why doesn't anyone agree?' it's like paul simon's 'hearts and bones'; when everyone's reputed their hatred, it's not underrated anymore!
it seems as if people that hate 'gaucho' just hate steely dan, period, and latch on to it as a cipher for their entire ouevre.

I can't really understand why this can be considered a bad album

I will defend these two via fistfight, if necessary.

One of all time top 50 favourite albums, and yet I have still yet to see a positive review, either from back then or a retrospective one.

Pavement's "Terror Twilight", although I'm not sure if the critics hated it as much as the fans did.

I like both of those, but I don't know whether a multi-Grammy-winning album such as "IV" could count as "critically reviled". Sure, you don't need to be a critics favourite to dominate the Grammys, but the albums that do still usually aren't universally hated by critics. In the case of Toto, most of their output will also receive a fair share of praise in the kind of magazines that appeal to musicians rather than fans.

Sabbath-Never Say Die
I've always loved this one. Most people seem to hate it, even the members of the band. I think it's great.
― Bill Magill, Monday, 30 July 2007 17:28 (sixteen years ago) link
i like the first half of never say die very much,and i'm convinced the title song is one of the great lost power-pop singles. you'll find others on this board who like that one too, as of course you would with any album you can name.
