Least Favorite Album By Your Favorite Artist.

If we're going by rock, it would be one of the Black Sabbath albums released after Ian Gillan left--That's the last one I bought--I've heard the others--there is worse music out there, but I don't need to own them either.

 

update - forgot
The Doors - The Soft Parade

 

King Crimson - Beat
Nektar - Sounds Like This
Pink Floyd - The Final Cut
Steely Dan - Everything Must Go
Frank Zappa - Them Or Us

 

elvis Costello mighty like a rose

 

Wildlife - -My favourite MtH album. Go figure, as you guys say.

 

ISB: The scientology album.

 

Stones - Undercover or Dirty Work...take your pick.

 

I'm not a huge U2 fan but I love Zooropa.

 

which album do you mean ?

 

Every Beach Boys album after Love You.

Every Wilco album after YHF

Every Black Crowes album after Lions

 

Aerosmith - Just Push Play
The Beach Boys - Summer in Paradise
The Black Crowes - By Your Side (It's not a horrible travesty of an album, but definitely not up to their standards)
Bob Dylan - Dylan
Wilco - Wilco (The Album)

 

I like most of Harry Chapin's albums, but he was out to lunch when he made On the Road to Kingdom Come. 3 good songs and 6 clunkers.

 

Paul McCartney- Pipes Of Peace
John Lennon- Sometime in NYC
George Harrison- Gone Troppo
Beatles- tough to pick....but I'll go with Let It Be, the one I listen to the least.
ELO- Balance
Kinks-Think Visual
Who- It's Hard
Moody Blues- Sur la Mer
The Knack- Normal As The Next Guy
Queen- Hot Space
Crowded House- Intriquer
Cheap Trick- Special One
Marshall Crenshaw- 447
Klaatu- Endangered Species
Elvis- Soundtrack to Clambake
Rolling Stones- Dirty Work
Raspberries- self titled

 

Just going to make this a small list:

The Alan Parsons Project - The Sicilian Defence
The Beach Boys - Summer in Paradise
The Beatles - Help! (for similar reasons LandHorses gives on the previous page)
ELO - On the Third Day
Klaatu - Hope
Mike Batt - Six Days in Berlin
The Monkees - Justus
The Moody Blues - The Magnificent Moodies
Slade - Whatever Happened to Slade
Utopia - Todd Rundgren's Utopia

 

Nested - Laura Nyro

 

Probably right - still has 'Mr. Blue' and 'Crazy Love', otherwise Laura on autopilot.

 

I think the reference is to the U double album by Incredible String Band.

 

'U' is quite a considerable lot better than it's predecessor - 'I Looked Up' IMHO. It's the last one with major traces of the old magic.

 

the raven or mistrial -lou reed
although i am going to try and muddle through them again over the next year.
i finally got growing up in public.....maybe these too will fall in line....
not sure i have enough of any other artists complete discography to make comment...IE there are loads of later-ish kinks albums i have never heard......and with cale i have heard basically everything and not sure anything stands out as really bad.....
to jaydee try the bootleg "another self portrait" if it covers the self portrait period and is quite revealing.....

 

Lulu - Lou Reed and Metallica

 

Van Halen III

 

Same here. Turned it off during my first listen and still haven't heard the whole thing.

 

It's actually a various artists live thing recorded, i think, at a scientology event and hasn't been available for years, and many people would say that's a good thing. I'm a ISB completist and I don't have a ciopy, but I heard a bit of it at a convention once and it was dire.
