I really couldn't find any great way to rank or decide what was going to be on my ballot. I was listening to Hootenanny and "Buck HIll" was one of the tracks that stood out to me that time so it made the cut.

Confession: I struggled to remember what this track was, as a relative newcomer to DTAS. (Plus I was thinking in terms of Top 50 until 12 hours ago.)

Love Buck Hill but like lots of other faves it didn't make my 30. It would definitely make my top 60, so I approve.

Yeah, I figured this poll was going to be a team effort so I didn’t sweat the ranking for one thing, for exactly that reason.

Enjoying PTMM more than usual right now. Perhaps it’s due to cleansing my palate by attempting to listen to the solo material.

Incidentally, number of voters then number of first-place votes are serving as tie-breakers. This is a handy illustration.

Kick Your Door Down was my #8!
sorry ma was totally new to me, so the whole album blew my socks off. i thought this was one of the ones that sounded a lot like Wipers in some ways. westerburg even has a sage-like robotrippin negative vibe ("i wonder what goes on behind closed door"). also sounds a bit like the buzzcocks! and unlike some of the later material, the tempo and feel shifts all over the place throughout the song. by the time they get to the end, they're noticeably faster and more intense, it's lovely

“Nowhere is (Near) My Home” was too new to me to vote for, but it is good.

Spotify list is no longer just a dummy track, btw. Might even serve as a apoiler for 5 minutes depending on which order I do things.
I spent more than enough time praising this track in the other thread I suspect.

The instinct towards restraint is commendable but the run-up thread and the rollout thread are distinct entities that are presumably exempt from any spamming or related rule so ultimately it’s probably fine to repeat.

Thing is, I'm usually cross-eyed from triple-checking bbcode and can barely think straight during rollouts. :)

Okay, PTMM bonus tracks not making me feel great.
Pretty sure I did keep this on my ballot. If not, I least muttered a little 'yay' with each email that included it.

The track list on that new boxset did not entice this fan, I must say. Who even was clamoring for it?
