I just had to open this (after a quick search) after I listened to Blood on the Tracks for my first time. Oh my god. I love this one even more than my old fave, Highway 61. Come on, speak up, I know we've got Dylan fans in here.

I just pre-ordered the Special Edition of Systematic Chaos. I got the money by opening a "GIVE BILL $$$ FOR NO REASON WHATSOEVER" thread on another forum I go to. Made $20 before the thread was deleted.

Aww, they're not playing Manchester NH. I hate driving down to Boston.

AFD is a brilliant hard rock record, but it isn't the best debut ever. This is. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/b/b8/AreyouexpUS.jpg

Those guys are so overrated. :

Dammit, why is it in Italy, and not, like, my front yard?

Starless and Bible Black. Unpredictable, brutal, and at times, utterly beautiful.

Ya know, a bit of respect can go a long way.

I don't like Scenes at all. Extended solos are nice, but they have no place on a story-driven concept album. If they cut the solos a bit, they might have had a chance for making the story actually be a bit cohesive. Anyway, with that said... Six Degrees>Awake>I&W(too short!)>FII=Octavarium>Scenes From a Memory

Misunderstood and especially Disappear are both stunning. The only weak part of 6DIT is Goodnight Kiss, and even that is saved by an amazing, ablit derivitive solo.

Tie between Kid Gloves and red lenses. Went with the underdog.

Top 5: 5) YYZ 4) La Villa 3) Natural Science 2) Xanadu 1) Jacob's Ladder Honorable Mentions: The Spirit of Radio Dreamline Tom Sawyer Subdivisions Hemispheres Honorable, but not quite as honorable, but still damn good songs mentions...?: The Pass The Analog Kid Cut to the Chase Between Sun and Moon A Farewell to Kings 2112 Red Barchetta The Camera Eye Oh, to hell with it, pretty much the rest of Rush's discography, "I Think I'm Going Bald" and most of "Test for Echo" excluded.

Oh God, get Six Degrees. Their best album by far.

Oh God, I want that Zippo.
