There is no denying the greatness of that Bruce album.
But, as strictly a personal favorite, NMH will get my vote just about every time.

This is unfair to Rain Dogs. (What I voted for.)

BROOOCE fans and NMH cult members are going to bury Waits.

(And yeah, I like Born to Run a lot, but I don't worship at that particular altar.)

I'm not near the Bruce fan you reg rockers are but its hard to argue against Born to Run. I'm throwing my vote to All Mod Cons though because its close and I really don't want NMH to finish 2nd.

I thought about each album for a second but any argument I could make for each one was quickly crushed by "Born to Run".

Hell, the title track alone FTW.

My two selections versus Broosh. I'm not drowning myself Rodney, but I voted for Beck. NMH and Broosh will probably advance. This grouping is a damn fine grouping, like the SEC East or the Big 12 South.

I like Mutations a lot and it's the only Beck I listen to anymore, but I went with Born to Run. Rain Dogs has a couple of tracks I like.
