What do you mean by "your" most overrated album? Obviously for most people "overrated" is just going to be "thing I don't like but others do".
Is this thread just an invitation to bitch about disliked music? If so it's a shit idea for a thread.
On the other hand, if you're asking what is the most overrated album that we actually own, I would have to say Dark Side of the Moon. I bought it because I kinda like it and felt like I was sort of obligated to buy it when I started collecting vinyl. But I hardly ever listen to it because there are so many albums in my collection that I would prefer to put on most of the time. People hail it as the best album ever made but it just doesn't have the sort of energy I'm trying to get from listening to music most of the time.
I listened to that so many times on cassette! It and Sgt. Pepper are the reason i feel sad for young people who don't get to experience the two sides of an album.
Yeah it's of course a good album, I just rarely actually want to listen to it more than some of the other albums in my collection

Yet here you sit, bitching about music.
Don't like it? Don't engage. That's the beauty of free will. No one is forcing you to come here and be negative.
Where did I bitch about music? I bitched about a thread that invites nothing but negativity. I then offered an answer based on the most generous possible interpretation of OP's question wherein I gave an example of an album which I fully recognize is objectively good, but which I personally find to be overrated in contrast to the rest of my collection.
