Some highly regarded albums that use that exact process, all are five stars on Allmusic:

- 6stringmerc 11y agoThough I'm not sure if it meets critical acclaim standards, Tom Scholz basically recorded the debut Boston album in his basement[1] and that thing sold 25 million.

- robenkleene 11y agoYeah, I agree 100%, especially with respect to Wikipedia's description of it. It's just something I've always heard around, but I definitely don't have an even remotely reliable source. Here's what Allmusic says about it: "Corgan eventually played almost all the instruments himself (except for percussion)." http://www.allmusic.com/album/siamese-dream-mw0000099414 http://www.allmusic.com/album/siamese-dream-mw0000099414
- brandnewlow 11y ago"Except percussion" is a pretty big exception on Pumpkins records!
- throwaway_xx9 11y agoSome of Van Halen's albums were done at home, in his home recording studio named "5150". I believe the "Beat It" guitar solo was also recorded there. Because there was no legal paperwork with MJ's mgmt., that was a freebie - to the utter dismay of his label.
