Neil Young - Tonight's The Night. Respected, but a "black sheep" relative to Harvest, Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere, After the Gold Rush, etc. Dark, sloppy in places, but an amazing album.
Radiohead - Pablo Honey; Smashing Pumpkins - Gish. Both slagged off by critics in comparison to the bands' later work, but I still like them. In fact, I like Gish better than anything Pumpkins did later.
Lou Reed - Rock and Roll Animal. The critics and fans who are into his art-rock stuff thought this album was too mainstream-rock sounding and slagged it off. Maybe that's why it's the only Lou Reed album I can stand.
Ozzy Osbourne - Speak of the Devil. Think it was a "contractual obligation" album that Ozzy put out instead of a live album with Randy because he was still grief-stricken. Ozzy himself had disowned it at one point & took it out of circulation. It was my first Ozzy album, maybe the first album I ever bought with my own allowance money when it was new, and I still like a couple of the performances of the songs on it better than their Sabbath original versions. Brad's my second-favorite Ozzy guitarist.
Cheap Trick - All Shook Up. Big commercial and critical letdown after their late-70s period, but several great songs on it.
