My list is way skewed towards the early stuff, as I've not kept up with Neil as well as I'd like to have... so little time, so much music....

1. The Needle And the Damage Done
2. Sugar Mountain
3. Only Love Can Break Your Heart
4. Unknown Legend
5. Hey, Hey, My, My (Into the Black)
6. Old Man
7. Cinnamon Girl
8. Long May You Run
9. Like A Hurricane
10. Sleeps With Angels

I have to admit I thought it was a Top 15 list! Still glad it gave me space to add a few more favorites!

All great lists, what a remarkable career.

Did you know there's a little Spanish pueblo in the low-key province of Badajoz near the Portuguese border called Albuquerque. It's tiny. Drove through it once and howled out Neil's words with glee.

I revisited Sleeps With Angels the other day. Boy is it good, first side in particular. I voted Train of Love/Western Hero as one song, as there the two sides of the same musical coin, which was a bizarre and intriguing move, but works perfectly. I was wondering if there are any quotes about this and why he did it. Any revelations in the Shakey biography? Driveby is magnificent, wishing I listed that too!
