    "Stop That Train" (Tosh) – 3:55
    "Baby We've Got a Date (Rock It Baby)" – 3:57

Side two

    "Stir It Up" – 5:32
    "Kinky Reggae" – 3:37
    "No More Trouble" – 3:50
    "Midnight Ravers" – 5:08

With the original zippo cover? Come on man!



Meanwhile, YHF was the turning point for Wilco, imo....tough call, but Marley gets the edge on this one.

IMO, Wilco crushes Marley on this matchup.

I agree. Disappointing that we won't see YHF in some more interesting matchups down the road.

YHF was a gamechanger album. Many selected as among the best of the past decade and, imo, rightly so.

Catch A Fire is good, to be sure. But I went with YHF.

I think this is one of the tougher matchups. I think both albums were actually game changers. Both bands had recordings prior to these albums, but then when these came out, they became groundbreaking and breakthrough albums for each of their respective genres.

It's really tough, because I'm listening to YHF right now, and am considering changing my vote. But it doesn't look like it'd make a difference given the numbers.
