Dig Zuma, but Wilco gets the square.

agreed. also Zuma is my favorite NY rocker and on the days I'm in the mood for a rocker, my favorite NY period.

This really shouldn't be a close one. Its going to give me a real bad case of CHH.

Zuma, I liked YHF a lot when it first came out, but I've grown weary of it...

Seriously? Really tough choice for me. I love both, but I guess I'm forced to choose Neil. This is a Top 3 record by him, for me.

Neil Young, only due to my overwhelming sense of meh for Wilco.

This isn't even my favorite Neil Young album and I'm not the biggest Neil Young fan but Zuma still wins by about a trillion miles.

At this point, it's time we get serious. Let's put the guns on the table and come up with a plan.

Just curious if the people voting for YHF realize that album's got "Heavy Metal Drummah" on it.
