many groups/people have had only one album. For good reason, it stunk. But other have had band breakup or other reasons. A few
Blind Faith - Blind Faith (this is why I'm not putting up album covers) Derek and the Dominoes - Layla and other Assorted Love Songs Jeff Buckley - Grace Sex Pistols - Never Mind the Bollocks

This butt kicking self named album was released on April 13, 1999. The beautiful and precious singer went onto be a full time songwriter which is where the more solid success was waiting for him. God bless you and Shane always!!! Holly P.S. His first song on the radio from that album named "Slave To The Habit" should've gone all the way, but sadly it only got as far as #20...I'd like to thank those who chose to ignore Shane for letting me know just how far their brain trains have no ability to travel.

Marie 'Queenie' Lyons produced one of the finest soul albums ever, and then disappeared. No-one knew, or knows, what happened to her.

Bubu - AnabelasFor prog fans, here's a true one-album wonder. Up until 2018, forty years after the fact, this was the only album ever attributed to this ensemble which existed as an offshoot of the vanguardist Di Tella Institute which in the 60s and 70s gave birth to artists like Clorindo Testa (better known as an architect), Julio le Parc, Marta Minujín (close associate to Andy Warhol during the 80s), Luis Felipe Noé (father of Gaspar Noé), Rómulo Maccio amidst others, and whose musical wing was founded and led by modern classical composer Alberto Ginastera and in times of great censorship under military dictatorship housed courses and presentations by left-leaning modern composers like Iannis Xenakis, Luigi Nono and Aaron Copland. This particular piece is something of a fusion of Italian prog by way of Il Balleto di Bronzo or prime-era Banco with King Crimson and Stravinsky, played by an octet with heavy emphasis on the interplay between flute, violin and saxophone, spanning three rather intricate suites. An absolute classic of Argentine prog which nevertheless found a much greater following abroad than it did locally.

New Radicals - Maybe You’ve Been Brainwashed Too
Everyone knows the big hit, but whole album was surprisingly solid alternative/adult contemporary pop:
I - Between Two Worlds
Abbath black-n-roll supergroup. I'm eventually going to learn to play this on guitar (awesome riff, awesome solo):
Temple of the Dog - Temple of the Dog
Grunge supergroup that produced one of the best albums of that movement. Shame it was the only one.
Cassie - Cassie
Really cool album that mixes with pop with slightly arty, experimental r&b and hip-hop grooves; actually quite ahead of its time (it sounds more contemporary NOW than it did in '06). Album was written by Ryan Leslie but performed by Cassie.
Control Denied - The Fragile Art of Existence
Chuck Schuldiner's prog metal band that elaborated on the direction he was taking Death in in the early/mid-90s, obviously cut short because of Chuck's untimely death.
The Sea Within - The Sea Within
This is a pretty recent release so it may or may not end up being their only one, but it's pretty typical prog supergroups like this are shot-lived. In any case, they have one of my absolute favorite songs of this century:

Michael Bolton's debut album is actually pretty good. Not sure what happened after that.

Temple of the Dog - Temple of the DogGrunge supergroup that produced one of the best albums of that movement. Shame it was the only one. Temple of the Dog was a tribute album for overdosed Mother Love Bone lead singer, Andrew Wood. It was not a supergroup, regardless of what the internet might say. Chris Cornell and Matt Cameron, both of Soundgarden, were the only two who weren't virtually unknown, at the time. Two guys from Mother Love Bone, Ament and Gossard, unestablished singer-without-a-band, Eddie Vedder, and Mike McCready rounded out the group. Vedder, Ament, Gossard and McCready went on to form Pearl Jam, but when they did Temple of the Dog, they were basically nobodies.

Rod Stewart and Phil Collins also went down a similar path. Wasn’t that early Michael Bolton rock? Even maybe hard rock? I don’t know that you could say that Phil Collins ever made any music that was close to hard rock, certainly nothing after Abacab at least. At least Stewart rocked some in the Faces.

Yes, Beavis and Butthead actually rip on one of his early hard rock music videos.
"I don’t know that you could say that Phil Collins ever made any music that was close to hard rock"
Collins started out in the Genesis, which started out as a progressive rock band, when Peter Garbriel left Phil Collins took over and went in a more rock/pop direction, and then when he went solo he went full on adult contemp.

I'd forgotten how early that album was in the lifespan of the bands involved. Still, it's kind of a supergroup in retrospect!
