    Same here.  I really can see Mike (acoustic) and Ed (vocals) playing this without the band after the first set.  Think it could be better stripped down.

    Ha....wonder if somebody read this thread and thought " How do we get the masses into " Retrograde"?,,,

    I am surprised at the lack of love for Buckle Up. This, to me, is a classic slightly bizarre Stone tune that fits right in with the early-to-mid section of their discography.

    Whoever Said, Quick Escape, Alright, Seven O'Clock, Retrograde
    Superblood Wolfmoon, Dance of the Clairvoyants, Buckle Up, Comes Then Goes, River Cross
    Never Destination, Take the Long Way, 
    I don't dislike ND and TTLW -- I just love the other songs more.  This list will change in a few weeks.  I've listened to Gigaton 50+ -- still love it, don't hit skip on any song.

    Does Dance of Clairvoyants become 2x faster when you are drunk for anyone else, or is it just me?

    wow that was hard to rank! I feel sorry for the songs nearer the bottom. Especially DotC. If no official single had been released for this record I wonder how we’d all rank DotC and SBWM? I think I’m ranking DotC much lower because I’ve listened to it a fair bit before the album was released. The other songs feel newer and fresher! 
    My current list:

    I’ve had enough time with the vinyl to rank these songs. I like all of them, but side B is played first for me, every time. This will change over
    time, always does.

    2. Seven O'clock
    3. Take the Long Way 
    4. Retrograde

    Although this will probably change again a few times before the day is out
    A month later, and the only change is DotC moving up a little. Retrograde is still at the bottom for me.

    The fact that Never Destination and Take the Long Way are 9 and 10 on my list just shows how good this album is. 

    7 o'clock is going to be a top 20 PJ song for me. Absolutely stunning.

    I want to like 7 O'clock but those damn "Heeeee heeeee's" Ed has been doing since Into the Wild really grind my gears.  Reminds me of Michael Jackson with his "hee hee's".
