this was one of my easier picks, even though it might be the first one i own physical copies of each, and enjoy all of them.

wilco

Being There. Probably the most equal of all. Only one I don't care for is Buckley.

I bought the original UK version of The Clash, so no "White Man In Hammersmith Palais", "Jail Guitar Doors", "Remote Control", and a number of others.

Voted Tim.

Man, all of these are great.

Tim wins today but it could've easily been The Clash.

"Dose of Thunder" be damned!

Fuck me.

Yeah between Being There and Tim I was having some serious issues. And I love Grace, but not enough.

Had to go with Being There. Mainly because I listen to it at least once a week. Never gets old with me.

Lots of great albums here but I didn't hesitate going with the Replacements.

Luckily The Replacements were in this round so I had someone to vote for. Being There is the only Wilco album I like, but mostly just certain tracks. I love The Clash's later stuff, but their self titled is one of my least favorite highly-revered '77 punk albums.

I had to think about it before Being There edged out BTS.

I'm fairly amazed - nay, aghast - that Wilco can even come close to the Clash and the 'Mats in this thing, let alone win it.
