ReRushed

Van Halen, hands down on both options.

Sabbath Bloody Sabbath Supernaut Fairies Wear Boots Symptom of the Universe Killing Yourself to Live Sweet Leaf Hole in the Sky Cornucopia Megalomania Snowblind

I love the Immaculate Grid. A very humbling game...

Doug Clifford and Stu Cook are probably the most under appreciated rhythm section in Rock music. Smooth and tight. Creedence's secret weapon. Fogerty's post-Creedence songs never had the same feel or quality.

"Someday Never Comes" and "Sweet Hitch-Hiker" are top notch Creedence tunes. "Lookin' for a Reason" is a pleasant Hank Williams inspired, toe tapping tune. Wait, those are the songs John Fogerty wrote...

"Strawberry Fields Forever" - The Beatles "I Found Out" - John Lennon "I'm Set Free" - The Velvet Underground" "I'll Come Running" - Brian Eno "'Til I Die" - The Beach Boys "I Believe" - Buzzcocks "Centerfield" - John Fogerty "The Whole of the Moon" - The Waterboys "Freewill" - Rush "Watching the Wheels" - John Lennon Honorable mentions: "Tomorrow" - Wall of Voodoo, "Sign on the Window" - Bob Dylan, "Subdivisions" - Rush, "I Believe" - R.E.M., "Respectable Street" - XTC

Big Thief - Masterpiece [9/10] King Crimson - Red [10/10] Built To Spill - Perfect From Now On [9/10] PJ Harvey - Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea [9/10] Wire - Send [9/10]

They are overrated. Good, but overrated.

Physical Graffiti by miles.

Rest in peace, Mr. Verlaine. Marquee Moon is a sublime album. Razor sharp guitars slashing and cutting through every song.

Judas Priest - Point of Entry [7/10]

David Crosby - If I Could Only Remember My Name [6/10] Ween - Quebec [9/10] AC/DC - Back in Black [10/10]

Ozzy Osbourne - Diary of a Madman [9/10] Black Sabbath - Mob Rules [8/10] The Michael Schenker Group - MSG [6/10] Whitesnake - Come An' Get It [5/10]

Diary of a Madman is a much better album than Blizzard of Ozz.

"Hard Hearted Alice" and "Teenage Lament '74" are top notch. Two of my Alice Cooper favs.
