    Tough one yella. I threw my vote away on a third party candidate. Zuma has a special place for me. I went through some tumultuous times in my 20s, with chicks and work/finances but mainly chicks. Zuma always spoke to me in my foggy, heavy drinking, frequently depressed state in a way no other album ever has.

    But Dark Side should win this.

    I'd play stupid girl loud when fighting

    Hard to unbecome a gear chucker. When I do fly fish it's with a big, weighted, rubber legged stonefly, a dropper to a single egg, split shot pinched on the leader, and a big ass corkie as an indicator. Basically jig and bobber fishing. I'll even put shrimp oil on them where allowed.

    I look down my nose at myself while doing it.

    I all chuck gear all the time with a fly rod. Axe @dflea . I was fishing a plastic bead egg with split shot and big ass bobber strike indicator. I could have borrowed his plastic worm and got to the glory hole first, it would have been me that caught the fish.

    Sucks for Sgt Pepper because it was an incredible album.

    Kinks also had some bad luck with this draw.

    I’d vote Pepper over Dark Side.

    Dark Side is one of my top 10 albums all time, but to each his own.

    I love REM but I feel they lost something special when they switched from IRS to WB. Fables of the Reconstruction, Life's Rich Pageant, Reckoning and Murmur are all lights out albums released by IRS. Even their B-side album Dead Letter Office is good. From the moment they released Green in '88 or '89 they went from being a southern rock, college band to a slicked up, ultra produced version of what they were. Moments of brilliance but no consistency and none of that essential southernness that initially made them special. JMO.
