seems like i'm always seeing certain albums or albums by certain people. a few that i've noticed, especially when trolling for vinyl:

diana ross - diana
bruce springstein - tunnel of love
mantovani
the magic organ
peter nero
the ray charles singers
the complete discography of barbara streisand (i swear i've seen it at least 5 times, different stores, different states)
loads of don gibson records

what else languishes in obscurity?

Herb Alpert- Whipped Cream & Other Delights- they must have sold a bazillion of them.

Firestone Christmas- there's a few different ones of this series- sold at Firestone tire stores for pennies, and they're every fucking where.

The one album I've probably seen in more used CD bins than any other is "Monster" by R.E.M.

For vinyl EVERY ANDY WILLIAMS RECORD EVER MADE

also many Dan Fogelberg albums (I have a theory that he was the Dave Matthews of the 70's)

I have at least one of these in my collection. You're telling me I don't have a Honus Wagner on my hands?

Neil Young 'Sleeps with Angels' is in EVERY used bin or section I have ever looked in,

That place was hookup central. RIP.

In vinyl bins I always see these:

Wings, James Taylor, Kansas, and Boz Scaggs respectively. There are a bunch of other things I can't think of right now, but these just annoy the shit out of me when I come across them.
