2. Queensryche-Promised Land (the last time QR will feature in my lists...)

You got that right!
That's a word salad - and take it from me, I know word salad
I fear for the day when something happens on the right that is SO nuts that even Stadler says "That's crazy".

Glad to see some nominations for Tom Petty's Wildflowers.  I remember being shocked at how good it was when it came out.  I was always a casual fan of his, and still am for the most part, but that record is terrific.  It just missed the cut for me when doing my nominations.
I'm a pretty big Petty fan, but that album, IMO, just stands head and shoulders above the rest of his output when it comes to being a consistently great album from start to finish.  Even with Full Moon Fever, a few songs don't really do that much for me; not so with Wildflowers.

Yep, it's very consistent, and almost every song is fun to sing along to.  Well, maybe not House in the Woods (unless you want to sound like a bird is dying :lol), but pretty much everything else. :biggrin:
