I once dropped my keys down the elevator shaft in my building and a guy went down to the basement to get them for me.

He was never heard from again.

All time? Exile on Main Street. Hands down. Not even close.
I rate The Big Four as follows:

1. Let it Bleed
2. Sticky Fingers
3. Exile
4. Beggars

Favorite of the 90s?

Tie:

Sublime - Sublime
Sublime - 40 Oz to Freedom
Soundgarden - Superunknown
Screaming Trees - Dust
Smashing Pumpkins - Mellon Collie,
etc...
Weezer - Blue Album
Neil Young - Harvest Moon

Stone Roses: Stone Roses. For both.

Other nominees in the '90s category include Blur: The Great Escape, Radiohead: The Bends, and Sammy: Tales of Greatneck Glory.

We should split up and look for him. We'll cover more ground that way.

Screaming Trees were a really good band. They were the middle band (after Tad) at Soundgarden's record release show for Loud Love. Great show. Do you have Soundgarden's SST release (Ultramega OK)? Great noise. Wtf ever happened to Kim Thayil?

I don't understand ranking Let it Bleed and Sticky above Exile. They may have better individual songs, but nothing comes together as a whole like Exile.

Why are you reading about vaginal distress in female cyclists? Feeling a little tender in the saddle these days? Try supporting your weight more with your legs and less with your pussy.

All time? I am not sure I have one, which is the truth, but you'll tell me it's a cop out. Plus it doesn't advance the debate. So my favorite all-time album is The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway. That's right. How you like me now?
Gabriel's got an odd little shelf in the music library in my head. I want to like him. I like some of his work. I like some of the wild prog stuff. But I just can't listen to him, or Genesis. It's hard to explain.

Explaining why I wouldn't listen to post-Gabriel Genesis, well... that's pretty fucking easy.

Maybe I'm over-thinking this, but this doesn't help me. Big Daddy Kane and Doug E. Fresh's albums where "ain't no half-steppin'" apply were released in the 80s.

I saw Tad once, and the show had some of the least socially acclimated people I have ever seen. Then there was the audience.
