I think the others are weaker as a whole for my taste.

Surprisingly Gandi is safe from joining your club

I thought he was a goner nominating 'Albatross' & 'Poison Arrow', not the case as both these songs appeared in previous polls & quizzes

R.E.O 2 is a well worth any ones money and includes Golden country which is a nailed on 70's classic with some wonderful guitar work and Flash Tan Queen. Love Richrath's work..Cronin is not in the same class

Jill is right you really have to dig deep to find the decent stuff from the 90's, even though it is one of the more modern era's so much of the music sounds dated now !

Thank god for Radiohead :-D a band way ahead of it's time

Some excellent R&B/Trip-hop artists such as the Fugees, Massive Attack, DJ Shadow, etc

Many great albums from the 00's for me.
Try Rival Sons and Nothing But Thieves albums, may be to your liking.
