    48. Milli Vanilli - All Or Nothing
    49. Neil Young And The Shocking Pinks - Everybody's Rocking
    50. Beck - Midnight Vultures

I suspect the theme of that is really "Bad albums from otherwise decent big name artists, and some novelties". Obviously, you could find some horrors in the discount bin at any record store that would make anything up there look good.

The only one of those I own is Beck's Midnight Vultures, but I own (or have owned) dozens of records that are far worse than it.
