Blah! In The Court Of The Crimson King is SO over rated. I love the album, but come on! Anything done with Bill Bruford, John Wetton, Tony Levin, Adrian Belew, is better by a large margin. Even Islands with Boz Burell is a FAR more interesting listen. |

The first one is the poorest for me too, Tom, but still decent! I don't think it's really fair in this thread to post bands that have barely a handful of albums lol! I mean, if we get a band that has two releaases, well by that logic one is good (best) and one is bad (worst) lol! What if they're both good?!

Pink Floyd - Piper at the Gates of Dawn (More/The Wall the list goes on)
ELP - Brain Salad Surgery (In the Hot Seat) King Crimson - Larks Tongues in Aspic (In the Wake of Poseidon) Genesis - Foxtrot (Duke) btw I haven't heard their later pop albums Yes - Relayer (Union) Atomic Rooster - Death Walks Behind You (Made in England) The Who - Who's Next (Tommy - the soundtrack version even though it features guest artists) Beatles - Rubber Soul/Revolver (Let it Be - that is disregarding their mop top juvenalia) Stones - Beggars Banquet (Undercover - again, disregarding their early Decca stuff) Black Sabbath - Sabbath Bloody Sabbath (Technical Ecstasy) John Cale - Paris 1919 (Black Acetate) |

For me it's Moonmadness - Stationary Traveller
Interesting. I always used to regard Stationary Traveller as one of their four weakest albums (with Breathless, I Can See Your House From Here and The Single Factor), but repeated listens have completely changed my opinion.
I now rate it up there with Nude and Rajaz, just behind the incredible trilogy from Mirage to Moonmadness.
Incidentally, Moonmadness has just been released on 180g vinyl.
If you have a really good deck (anything from a Linn LP12 upwards to a PT Anniversary or a Nottingham Analogue Annalog or a Voyd or similar) the sound quaity is simply unbelievable - far better than CD. The best £23 I've ever spent. [/QUOTE]
Sorry I have no interest whatsoever in vinyl. I hate it.

My problem picking most of these is that with bands with large discographies I don't have a lot of the bad albums (Yes, Genesis, Tull), and with bands with a small discography I don't feel like calling one of four albums bad, typically I usually think they're all good.
Univers Zero - Ceux Du Dehors / Rhythmix (and I do like Rhythmix) |

The self titled is still a good album, yes. I haven't investigated many full discographies, studio album wise, so those were the bands I could fairly do the best and worst with.
