speedy marie for me too, but it's a close call, this album has many many great songs on it. |

Speedy Marie. Never understood how it won TOTY Survivor at first but now it's my favourite track.

Superabound. Great song topic. And I do feel that way many times. Superabound, like multitasking in overdrive and yet, bored.

"These waters run deep, it's clear my little one/Blue velvet star sky not a sound
The light in your eyes, the smile on your ruby lips/Tells me my lost soul is found"
I vote for Fiddle Riddle. It's not my favorite on the album but it's just a perfect little pop number. Back in the 70s it would have made a great one hit wonder out of Frank. Imagine that, Frank at number one on the singles chart!
shine you still up for keeping score?

space is gonna do me good is probably the best
headache, freedom rock and white noise maker are other highlights of this all-around amazing album.
So Im headed for the stereo store, to get a white noise maker, and turn it up to ten. |

I'd vote for "Los Angeles" as my favorite on the orange/yellow album.

Calistan, speculative fiction rock at it's finest. I've taken 5 days to drive down one street, if it's Route 1 that he's refering to. Could be Sepulveda Blvd. if you make enough stops. My second choice (even though it won't count) is Bad Wicked World. |

I am astounded Speedie Marie has 7!
And Freedom Rock has 0!
And Headache, Abstract Plaina nd White Noise Mater so few...
Shocking.
Bet people would not be so disparate in thier views on the yellow/orange/eponymous LP. Los Angeles...

I can't decide either, but since Pure Denizen of the Citizen's Band has no votes yet I'll take that.

Hummm, White Noise Maker gets my vote.
It's a great song that i think tends to get overlooked because it's so far down the album.
Second choice.. Thalassocracy
