Hahaha, it's OK, I get it now, sorry for stretching this

I think this album is the best album of all time. Two other albums beat it out for me in terms of personal connection, but what other album can maintain such a tremendous quality for more than an hour?

Yeah, none of those can touch London Calling. Imo.

Sure, in your opinion, but they all "maintain a tremendous quality for more than an hour" especially The Seer and Lift yr Skinny Fists

I thought those were the two worst ones on your list. They can't even maintain quality enough to interest me for over 5 minutes.

I'm with CDQ on this, London Calling is just about as great as anything has ever been. I just adore it on a whole other level!
Blonde On blonde is of the same caliber nearly, but I just don't think it has quite same personal connection with me. I know I am super biased.
But, Exile is classic and deserving to be considered same order of magnitude of badassness at some points. But exile has filler that London calling doesn't. I think it would be good to have a track by track battle between them. They are comparable. But whereas Exile has "Turd on the Run" London calling has nothing like that. The closest thing you can call filler on it is Koka Kola and personally that is fucking marvelous as well! "Elevator, GOING UP!" (Doo doo, do doo do do!) "In the cleaning corridor of the 51st floor the money can be made if you really want some more."

I just don't think any of those albums can compete with London Calling. There is not even an average moment on London Calling. It's a perfect album. Those other ones aren't, imo. But if you disagree, fine.
