I had a copy on 8 track tape -- again from the bargain bin -- and it was funny to switch from track to track and hear the same noise!
Me too! However I had a different impression: I was struck by the *differences* when one switched from track to track.

Nobody mentioned Scott Walker's comeback album Tilt yet.

After looking at all of these great suggestions and given the definition of "inaccesible", I think hands down the most "inaccesible" album of all time has to be Lou Reed's "Metal Machine Music". You really can't listen to the whole thing through unless you really don't like yourself. I am not sure why I bought the cd (I'm OK with myself!), it just seemed like something that should be in the collection!
Followed closely by the early Lennon/Yoko "projects". There are bad albums, and then there are unlistenable (therefore inaccesible) albums.

Pink Floyd's Animals isn't inaccessible but given that it followed two immensely successful LPs and didn't contain any songs suitable for airplay (two are a minute and a half apiece while the others are at least 10 minutes long), it's extremely non-commercial.

I have this. I found it at a yard sale for FIFTY CENTS. I was floored. It's not very good other than the hilarious Bob George.
