My Aim Is True and it's not close.

Though The Cars comes pretty close.

Funeral, the Cars s/t, Outlandos d'Amour, Music From Big Pink. I'm a big fan of Get Away From Me but I don't expect much Nellie McKay chat on the Chicago Fanatics Message Board.

My Aim Is True kicks ass, but I think This Year's Model is even better, and some people would say Imperial Bedroom is his best (not me).

"Born in the Fifties" is the only stinker on the album, in my opinion. I expect a cover to turn up in a pharmaceutical ad soon.

The Doors.

Crystal Ship and Twentieth Century Fox aren’t good. The rest is solid.

Ten had a pretty big impact on the music scene at the time.

Wrong.

Both of those songs are also good.

Pretenders

Put their debut together with PII and you've got maybe the best 1/2 combination.

My Aim Is True paired with This Year's Model was my favorite 2-in-1 CD-R back when I first started driving. I don't think Pretenders II is nearly as good as the debut, though.

_________________

Definitely the last impactful debut for me. It had leaked for some time before I heard it, so expectations were high and it absolutely delivered.

It was one of those transcendental musical moments where the first listen is the best listen.

Yep, it wasn't just great on its own merits, it felt like something completely new. Of course, by now, we're all tired of whoa-oh-oh songs with tambourines, but at the time it was magical. But man, did that band get bad.
