From this list, and from the albums I actually know, I'd say Union. Luckily I didn't pay too much money for it. Calling All Stations comes close.

I see that I avoided quite some albums on the list that are considered bad by many people. Never listened to Love Beach, The Final Cut and Free As A Bird. Maybe I'm good at reading reviews

Exactly. Pointless and stupid.

I second that.

It just seems like an imposition of a personal taste, nothing more. 

Yep, fourth.

Erlenst, I can't understand Camel's debut.

 

It just sounds so amateur ...I feel it is even much worse than Genesis' debut

Come on people! Octavarium is not THAT bad!
It's good to see DT not repeatng themselves over and over again.
I chose Queensryche, which, in my opinion, have little contribution to prog, sorry.
Progressive music, a kind of life.

Yes, not all of their albums are bad at all. I just put Octavarium to see how many votes it gets (as for disappointment I guess). Octavarium is disappointing, but not bad.

I'll give you my ratings for each album in there:

1 [4.17%]
0 [0.00%]
2 [8.33%]

TMV is hilarious.   Depending on who you ask, they're either complete crap - or the saviours of prog.

After all, nobody else is doing what TMV is.

But, maybe there's a reason for that...

I haven't heard asome of the albums listed but had to go for FTM. I don't like the phrase 'worst of'. Can we say 'Not really my cup of tea'?

There might be numerous bad albums but I think Octavarium is the worstAngry

How can a band that had been considered pioneers in prog metal can do such a thing like that!!!

I voted for Pink Floyd, they did some horrible stuff, yes, even worse than trio Genesis.  Why is Octavarium in this poll?  It clearly doesn't fit genre wise with anything else up here at all.  It's not nearly as bad as a lot of these either.  Good luck trying to make Octavarium sink to the level of Love Beach.

All of the Yesmen producing something even worse than We Can't Dance. That's Union for you.



concur completely...... I have them all Winter Wine and it by far is the worst of them... even more than OYE. The reason I voted it..... they are all 'bad'.... but this was by the some of the best musicians prog has to offer.  A double 'ouch'  in my book.

 So don't get it then! got ya! I read once that Trevor Rabin called it a black mark against Yes! and Wakeman called it 'Onion'

 



strangely as a fellow Yes fan...  I recommend it.... as your last item in your Yes collection.  We do want our musical heros to recieve just compensation for the near 40 years of musical delicacies they have provided us.  If only to hear the sound of what personal turmoil, and record company intrusion sounds like.

Strangely... I get you! In fact I think a lot of Yes' albums are overshadowed, by themselves!! It's as if they made SO many good albums that only one is a masterpiece (CttE) When In fact they have at least FOUR albums I would award five stars too. I'd like to hear Union just to hear how crap it is, it'd probably prove my point in a way
