Come on Ob. You can do this.

Tweedy or Westerberg?

I went with "Tim", I've always liked Bastards of Young. I'm also not a "Wilco" type of guy.

Adding fuel to rads' fire and Ham to his CHH - I chose Wilco.

Tim was an easy pick for me. I like Being there enough though that it won't give me a bad CHH if it advances.

I've elaborated on this before, but I'll summarize: Being There is shit.

Both great albums.

Roll another number for the road
You're the only sober person I know
Won't you let me make you a deal,
Just get behind the wheel
If bein' afraid is a crime, we hang side by side
At the swingin' party down the line

Being There - not Wilco's best
Tim - probably Mats' best

So Tim.
