So, which album do you listen to most often right now, in 2009? Even if you're more of a live show person, which tunes are grabbing you at this moment?

 

If you were gonna throw on a Wilco album right now, which would it be? (btw, for me it's AGIB)

 

(No, Froggie, the Mermaid Ave. records don't count)

If I had to rank order them...it would be

 

AGIB

YHF

SBS

ST

AM

BT

 

Interesting because as much as I love being there...I don't listen to it much

I'm on a big summerteeth kick at the moment. However I just rewatched IATTBYH so things might switch over to Yankee Hotel Foxtrot. For what it's worthy Being There is probably my most listened to Wilco record

I've been a riff heavy listener as of late so a handful of tracks off of AM have been playing my record...it's hard for me to get beyond Casino Queen...the thickness and the tones are simply head-wiggling...

Yes! It was the Rolling Stones thread that got me thinking. Your "favorite" album isn't necessarily the album you're most often listening to.

As much as this fan-boy hierarchy is easy to mock with a trick question (chronology). I bet the amount of combinations you can have would make for a lot of different Wilco fans. I'm not a math man but I know there's some formula for different sequences of six. I feel like I'm the only one with this:

 

AGIB

YHF

BT

SBS

I'll go...

 

AGIB (my favorite of the newer sound)

 

BT (my favorite of the older sound)

 

YHF (Who doesn't love this one)

 

ST (many a lovely sad song wrapped in happy casings...clever)

 

SBS (I'm the boy who gets excited...about Nels Cline...yes, I know that is from Summerteeth... save the keystokes)

 

AM (Great collection of country pop ditties)

 

I do enjoy all of them... for me it is hard to rank them.

I've been listening more to live shows and mixes lately than full albums, but YHF was in my car stereo for over a month, and it's always been the Wilco album I've listened to in its entirety the most. I haven't listened to AGIB in quite awhile, though, so I'll probably put that on sometime today.

If you have "n" things you want to arrange in a particular order, you can arrange them "n!" different ways. So with 6 albums, we can arrange them 6! ways. Or 720.
