It has to be Selling England By The Pound. I was expecting to hear a masterclass in songwriting and musicianship but got neither. A very dissapointing album then and years on it has only got worse.

Well... I'm very happy with it, though

Two albums come immediately to mind:  'Point of Know Return' by Kansas (1977); and, first, self-titled album by 'Asia' (1982).

   Yes - Open Your Eyes
   ELP - In the Hot Seat.  i can't say they disappointed me heavily but these two albums at least are not that bad but they're the least inspired albums of these two bands; that's where my disappointment is coming from.

Falling into Infinity by Dream Theater. I love Derek Sheranian in Planet X and on A Change of Seasons, but this album is DT's weakest to date. Saying that Im not a huge fan of Octavarium, although at least this has 3 good tracks on it.

My first Tangerine Dream album I bought was Atem, OH BOY was that a huge mistake, I pawned it the day after. Back then I was just introduced to progressive music so I didn't know what to expect from most of it. Now that I'm more open-minded and accepting to new things Tangerine Dream is one of my favorite bands and I bought back Atem Embarrassed.

Easy enough for me, Genesis- "Calling all Stations" But NOT because of Ray Wilson. I had high hopes for this one, but it just seemed to meander from song to song with every track sounding the same. I couldn't tell where one song ended and the next one began,with the only exception being "Congo". I really wanted to like this album, but IMHO, it just fell flat.
Alive they called him lucky, but not today, 'cuz he died like all good cowboys, with his boots on, next to his men       Ballad of Big-Genesis

I have said this before, but I was very dissappointed with The Mars Volta's "Amputechture"
Bassists are deadly
