Side two

1."When Doves Cry" – 5:54
2."I Would Die 4 U" – 2:49
3."Baby I'm a Star" – 4:24
4."Purple Rain" – 8:41


Runner up:

Wanted! The Outlaws by Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Tompall Glaser, Jessi Colter
1974



1."My Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys" (Sharon Rice) – 2:48
Performed by Jennings
2."Honky Tonk Heroes" (Billy Joe Shaver) – 3:27
Performed by Jennings
3."What's Happened to Blue Eyes" (Jessi Colter) – 2:15
Performed by Colter
4."You Mean to Say" (Colter) – 2:28
Performed by Colter
5."Suspicious Minds" (Mark James) – 3:55
Performed by Jennings and Colter
[edit] Side two
1."Good Hearted Woman" [Live] (Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson) – 2:56
Performed by Jennings and Nelson
2."Heaven or Hell" (Nelson) – 1:37
Performed by Jennings and Nelson
3."Me and Paul" (Nelson) – 3:45
Performed by Nelson
4."Yesterday's Wine" (Nelson) – 2:58
Performed by Nelson
5."T for Texas" (Jimmie Rodgers) – 4:12
Performed by Glaser
6."Put Another Log on the Fire (Male Chauvinist National Anthem)" (Shel Silverstein) – 2:16
Performed by Glaser

Even though this album is legendary, I just can't make myself put this up there in my top slots because of Jessi Colter. The woman didn't earn her position on this album because she was a good singer, I will assure you. Being Waylon Jennings' girlfriend didn't hurt her opportunites in the business, thats for damn sure.

The Best of Mercyful Fate

Thin Lizzy; The Definitive Collection

W.A.S.P; The Best Of The Best

I'd agree with Btown and say Doolittle. I prefer Surfer Rosa, as Doolittle sounds more like a greatest hits compilation or something... it just doesn't flow quite as well together.

Some that come extremely close:

Finding Beauty in the Wretched - Dirty Elegance because out of 18 songs, there's only 2 that don't deserve the 5 star rank from me.
Beautiful Freak - Eels
American Beauty - Grateful Dead
good call.

The Mars Volta- Frances the Mute.
Song by song it's perfect and their best album. However there is something about De-Loused that makes me love it more despite all of its flaws. Some sort of magic.

Frank Zappa- Hot Rats
Oh Christ it's whimsical. It's like a ****ing disney movie made love to Charles Mingus and an electric guitar.

That's all really, but I'm always looking to change that.

I think I'd pick Dirt over this, not just because its more mainstream but because I truly think Dirt is a better album. Still cool to see Alice In Chains of any kind in here.

I'm gonna add
Bad Brains - s/t
Black Flag - Damaged
