Jeez, I think Waiting For The Lovebus is probably the worst thing Mr. Fish ever did, though Condition Blue is pretty underwhelming also. Lovebus seems like the nadir of Pat's self-destructive Spacemen 3 adulation....

I don't adore Cult Of The Basement, but I do like it much better than Lovebus or Condition Blue. I still gotta go with A Scandal In Bohemia for the #1 position, assuming Bloody Nonsense is ineligible because it's a compilation.
