Should be all good. Let me know if I missed a song. The "set" is in the right sequence, if you go through and download each track, you might just have to throw em the proper order.

Ok, I've finally made my decisions
I actually used the list i made at the same time as joey and stip where we attempted to rank the entire catalog, and that gave me a good start, using that there were clear cut winners in each match, then when i listened to the playlists it tightened the gap on all of them.

kurtleon vs Ilpazzo - kurts list was a good bit better for me, the total score for each was 713 for Kurt to 886 for Ilpazzo( higher the score means a worse ranking of the songs), but the transitions from animal through Cready stomp were so good that it really made the decision tough, but kurt won this one

chud vs oasisfan - score was chud 742 and oasisfan 827, in this one the flow of chud's playlist made his team even better for me

1974 vs wtob? - the score was 1974, 912 and wtob? 771, and in this one if it wasn't for wtob? Having more of my favorite songs, then i wouldn't have been able to decide, i love both of these playlists, 1974's is really quirky and fun and wtob?'s just has great flow from start to finish, but i had to go with the songs i liked better to break the tie of my love of the playlists.

Birds in hell vs DVN of course im gonna pick my team, but to give reasoning even if it wasn't my team, the score was birds 814 and my team was 444. also, birds playlist was the first i listened to and i love it, but if there was a knock on it, i don't really love glorified or comatose in the flow, they aren't bad at all but the don't flow as well as the rest of it does.
The thought behind my playlist was to try and start slow and build to a high point in the middle then comeback down for a mellow finish. I can see where some can find all or none a little boring, but i just love the slight build and the atmosphere of it, I've always thought it could be a show opener. After that i just tried to match up each song for the best transition, AON into smile sounded great in my head, as did smile into alive, and i liked what i heard when i put them in their spot. Alive was the toughest part, and as i said yesterday, i would have liked to put red mosquito or 1/2 full behind it to flow the outro solo into one of those intro solos, but since i didn't get either of those i used the last note to try bathing it up to all night, then the rest just sounded the best to me as one song ended and the other began.

Great write up Doc. What gets me is how great this band was from 96-2000 a four year run of studio recording that are amazing. I can't think of many bands that have rivaled this output. Vitalogy is a whole other beast this album sits in a vacum to me ,because of where the band was in realationship to Ed. It is Ed's greatest work for sure, but when Ed is hitting on all cylinders with the band it is epic. That when it trancends music and becomes spiritual.

im not sure if everyone did, we all reordered our songs into a playlist, but if they arent on the first page, they may not have been ready by the time stip edited the first post but there are a few scattered between pages 86(i think) and 91 you can check out.

Kurtleon vs. Ilpazzo


Ilpazzo has a nice run of 4 songs to close it out, but Kurtleon's team 4 best songs are better than anything Ilpazzo has.

Cutuphalfdead vs. Oasisfan35


Release and Thumbing My Way are two of my very favorite PJ songs, but Wash and Even Flow are two of my least favorite. No Way, Lowlight, MFC, Parting Ways, Sad...man.

Its Not 1974 vs. WTOB?


I appreciate the quirkiness of 1974's list, but WTOB?'s team is a touch more cohesive. And 3 of his songs are commonly hated on songs that I like: Army Reserve, LBC, and Help Help, so that's enough to give him the edge.
