Primitive Radio Gods - whatever the album was called that had the single "Standing outside a broken 'phone box in Memphis with my money in my hand" on it. never even listened to the rest of that album.

Marcy Playground - album that had "Sex and Candy" on it.

i'm sure i have at least 1/2 dozen others like these. great singles from one hit wonder bands, with nothing worthwile on the rest of the album.

I think he means Albums sold on the basis of a single track, with the rest being just "fill in" tracks
