I had to go for SY just BARELY over Stevie.
For the mere fact that it made a bigger impact on my life.

If it was the debut I would have as well, but as it's my favourite Dylan album and thus beats that Ramones record.

I voted Stevie. Rocket to Russia is better than the Ramones debut though just less important. This is a tough tier. Everything in this but Jawbox is better than anything in tier 1.

Is this set up to automatically delete any user who votes for jawbox?

Second time in a row my vote was for the album in third. It's Stevie's masterwork, so I had to go with it.

What can I say?

It's my favorite Ramones record vs my 3rd fave Dylan record.

They both hit over .350 for careers and had over 600 homers. First ballot hall of famers.

I dunno, that's like saying Albert Pujols meant more to The Cardinals than Stan Musial.... it might be a fact, but that doesn't mean it's TRUE.

Not much can compare to what hearing that period of Dylan did for my fragile teenage psyche.

I don't know whether to vote for Dylan or SY. Both have albums I like better than the ones nominated.

This one was easy, even though I love all five albums. Ramones.
