This or That :Non-Eagles music

[Annoying Twit]

For me TDB is a much better album overall than AMLoR, though AMLoR has the best single song ('Sorrow').

Stevie Wonder Songs: I Just Called To Say I Love You, or Superstition?

[Freypower]

The magnificent Superstition stands alone. I Just Called... while pleasant enough, is like Phil Collins' Against All Odds; not representative of the artist at all.

Deep Purple: Highway Star or Space Truckin''?

[Jonny Come Lately]

Both are great, but it has to be Highway Star, which is my favourite Deep Purple song and one of my all-time favourites. The song is brilliant from start to finish, and the guitar and organ solos are exceptional IMO.

---------------------------------------------

I've never done one like this before, or seen anyone else do anything similar, but think I'll give it a try:

Preferred year in music: 1973 or 1975?

(I chose those two years as a number of my favourites were released then)

[Annoying Twit]

1975 has better albums than 1973 (in my opinion) for a number of artists. Eagles, Pink Floyd, Paul McCartney. I think I'll go for 1975.

------------------------------------
Decades in music: 1980s or 1990s?

[Freypower]

I would have answered 1973 for Band On The Run & Goodbye Yellow Brick Road (and also Selling England By The Pound) and Desperado. The Eagles'1975 album was my least favourite of theirs & I cannot think of another album from that year apart from Status Quo's On The Level that I still play (wait a second.. .Wish You Were Here & Desire)?

The 1980s when Genesis & Dire Straits were so big, easily beat the 1990s.

Harry Chapin: Taxi or WOLD?

[RudieCantFail]

I pick WOLD after listening to those songs for the first time. I just like it better than Taxi's slower sound.

------------------

I Fought the Law by The Bobby Fuller Four or The Clash?

[AlreadyGone95]

The Clash

------------

AC/DC- albums : Highway to Hell or Back in Black?

[Freypower]

I don't own either of these; I'm not a fan. But I grew up with Highway To Hell (the song) so that is my choice.

------------------------------

CCR 'southern' songs: Proud Mary or Born On The Bayou?

[Annoying Twit]

Born on the Bayou as Mark Hart used to sing it live for Crowded House.

---------------------------------
Under Pressure vocalists: Freddie Mercury or David Bowie?

[Freypower]

I loved them both but on that song I prefer Freddie's part. Overall Freddie was a better singer than David as well. David was a bit mannered on occasion.

Elvis Vegas era songs: Suspicious Minds or In The Ghetto?
