I just knew you'd pipe about fucking Quorn.

Their UK line is better than their US line, but their US line is solid. Gardein and MorningStar are generally better, but Quorn is superior to Boca.

Quorn is far better than MorningStar - the chik'n patties alone put them over the top.

No way. MorningStar's consistency across their entire line can't be touched by Quorn.

I will gladly choose a meat substitute that achieves moments of greatness over one that is consistently just ok.

In/Casino/Out is a great album.
It's okay, but not even in the same universe as ROC.

Any deviation from this is idiotic.
Self-titled might be better. Maybe. In any case, none of them are MUCH better than the others.

Oh, and probably London Calling. I really like the first record, Sandinista, and Combat Rock, and proabably listen to all of those more than LC these days...but realistically, London Calling is probably the much better record.

Born in the USA is better than Nebraska, Born to Run and Darkness? I politely disagree. Though I do think USA gets crapped on for being too commercial. I don't think Bruce went into the studio after Nebraska thinking he'd make an album that would sell 30 million copies. I think the masses came to him and that album is filled with some great pop songs no doubt.

Some of my earliest memories about music come from listening to Bruuuuuce vinyl with my Dad who was lucky enough to see him in 75, 77, 80 and 84.

Agreed here. Like them all but LC is way better than the others IMHO.

I'll second USA being Bruce's best, and I think by a pretty wide margin.

It's produced better. I will agree with that. As far as song content? Agree to disagree.
