I used to agree with this, but I'm really coming around on it. Babylon Sisters is sliding in the rankings for me. TOOM is rising with a bullet and may very well be my favorite track on the album.

And, my god, just the SOUND of that album. Christ almighty. It really is the pinnacle of Dan's playing and production, even if it may not be the peak of their composition.

Did you ever look and see if you had the quadrophonic version of Can't Buy A Thrill?

Just checked. It is not the quadraphonic version.

That's a great track. Gaucho is really something, though I've recently decided that Katy Lied is my favorite. I don't think any other band has so consistently rotated a favorite album for me like this!

Katy Lied is moving up the rankings. I've been playing it more often than any other lately.


Song just came on like 10 min ago, so good

Tonight when I chase the dragon, the water may change to cherry wine...

Could be my favorite line by them.

Well, this is pretty fantastic. Obviously Dan's original is far superior, but I love this interpretation.
