Produced by T-Bone Burnett. Dylan's kid and pals hit paydirt on their second album. The entire album is strong, but the first five songs have to be considered as one of the strongest album sides in history. One Headlight, 6th Avenue Heartache, Bleeders, Three Marlenas and The Difference...it doesn't get much better than that. And the rest is fine as well. Bringing Down The Horse is, to me, one of the great under the radar albums of the rock era. Tuneful, fun, and just a smidge from absolutely perfect. [First added to this chart: 04/12/2012]

Produced by Wilco. After the split of Uncle Tupelo, Wilco and Jeff Tweedy were beaten soundly by Son Volt and Jay Farrar to see which one could come out with the better alt country album. Wico regrouped with a new sound, adding multi-instrumentalist Jay Bennett and released the two disc Being There, the beginning of the Wilco sound as we know it. Without the excess of their later work, Being There is beautiful and masterful, the best of Jeff Tweedy and the best of Wilco. A must have. [First added to this chart: 04/11/2012]

Produced by Paul Leary and David Kahne. Ska punk was pretty big in Southern California in the 1990's, and Sublime was a really big part of that. This album, haunted by the death of lead singer Bradley Nowell, is actually a pretty terrific summer soundtrack. "Santeria", "What I Got", and "Doin' Time" lead a strong group of songs that has made this album a rightful legend. This is dismissed as being a novelty by a lot of people...don't believe the hype. This is really a very terrific album, and it's a lot of fun. [First added to this chart: 11/11/2012]
