Speedy Marie - but its totally impossible to play one track without succumbing to the irrevocable charms of the whole album, undoubtably FBs finest

Calistan is so very good. Then sometimes Speedy Marie is the best one. I'll have to go with one of those two. I'll just go listen to TOTY again and come back ......
I vote Calistan

Ole Mulholland for me. All of the different parts that come in in the intro is amazing.

speedy marie or freedom rock - but its like choosing your favorite finger. no, harder.
Alienation confers freedom. Obscurity will keep you pure. Pray that you won’t be discovered young, so that you won’t be tempted to sell out early, or won’t be seduced by celebrity.

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

I was gonna say Speedy Marie, but it already has a lot of votes, so I'll go with Olé Mulholland.

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

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...
