nice one. I'd have 'nobody to love' in the top five tho'.

I'm annoyed i couldn't fit "Scarlet and Gold" in there, I love Stacy Sutherland's guitar playing, not to mention "Slide Machine" dammit! Did you know Stacy Sutherland was shot dead by his wife?!?!?

goddamn, i hate these threads. julio's right about "nobody to love" and i might just put "dear dr. doom" at 13, and the track from the live TV performance where the host makes the jug player play unaccompanied for a second would be 14.

Oh sorry guys - that's the first list I've ever posted and I only did that 'cos I was listening to "Bull of the Woods" at the time. I'll know better in future...

In the context of recent threads the "pick 13" angle of this one is a massive innovation.

six years pass...

Blows my mind how young Roky was when he recorded this stuff. 8 years on, I think my 13 holds up well, Julio is right that "Nobody To Love" should be higher up... as should "Levitation".
