>Are you sitting comfortably?/IQ
This is NOT IQ's worst album. That would be Nomzamo for sure.
Further, Tales from the Lush Attic was poorly arranged and produced, and Seventh House suffered from poor compositions - I swear I can't remember a melody from that album.
Are You Sitting Comfortably? has two kick-ass extended prog tracks - Falling Apart at the Seams and Wurensch - along with some pleasant neo-prog tracks. And nicely produced by Terry Brown of Rush fame.

Has to be "Love Beach." That album was a milestone of misjudgement. It is a significant episode in the tragi-comedy that makes up the mythic-history of prog rock. It is the Waterloo of ELP. ELP's hubris had outstripped reality and an empire crumbled to the ground.

Actually ToT is really good especially if you are sorta a Metal fan. Anything compared to Love Beach is awesome it seems. Well except maybe for blink 182 and St Anger.

Power and glory by Gentle Giant bored me to death.
Same thing for Love Beach, but I love some of Seinfield's lyrics though

Most of the listed albums have at least one track worth listening to; as far as 'Under Wraps' by Tull is concerned though...
I don't know who is more to blame for this one, Anderson, who effectively duplicated his contemporaneous solo album, or Vetesse, who added texture to 'Broadsword', but smothered 'Under Wraps' with appalling synth work - bear in mind too, that Anderson's solo album featured Vetesse strongly.
The following tour was the only time I have ever come close to walking out of a Tull gig halfway through.

I voted for The Wedge by Pallas. I love their dubut album The Sentinel, and their 2nd album is horrible.
Big generator is a big disappointment, too.
I never dared to listen to Love Beach. I have never ever read anything positive about it. So...
