There are GOLD (no pun intended) on EVERY Single Album !!! I revisited Speak Kindly of Your Volunteer Fire Department right after watching this, SOOOO GOOOOOOD (Port Authority, a PROG masterpiece !!) And also Waved Out Kicks HARD !! And most of those TODD TOBIAS LPs are really amazing !!!!! Happy New Year Scot, and i await MORE Pollard Rankings in the near future !!!!!!
I'm not familiar with Robert Pollard's work will have to check out his stuff! Thank you for turning me on to some new music Scot! Hope you had a cracking Christmas brother! 🐍☃️🐍
I remember critics panning Waved Out, and Pitchfork gave The Crawling Distance like a 2.7 or something? I like melancholy, introspective Bob so that's bullshit.
I really like all of these (except for maybe Superman Was A Rocker) but you pretty much nailed it here. I would swap WAGOOTA with with Elephant Jokes and move ….Is Off To Business into the top ten as well as Fiction Man (FM might even be top 5 for me) and probably put Standard Gargoyle Decisions into the bottom 3 but other than that looks good to me!
For Xmas I got 2 vinyls: Same Place The Fly Got Smashed (red vinyl) and Tonics And Twisted Chasers. Still gotta hear the non GBV Bob stuff. I’m currently on Zeppelin Over China on my chronological journey. I’m taking my time and double albums like this one take me a while to absorb

@TheProgCorner That's a great catchy little tune! Loved it! Many thanks Scot! Much love brother! 🐍☃️🐍
👍👍❤️❤️
Great job Scott, I agree with most of what you said here. Uncle Bob sure covers a lot ground!
It’s a fool’s errand!!!!
I remember critics panning Waved Out, and Pitchfork gave The Crawling Distance like a 2.7 or something? I like melancholy, introspective Bob so that's bullshit.
And then Pitchfork started ignoring Bob (and GbV) entirely.
Worst pitchfork review EVER!
I haven't heard anything from him. Happy holidays and a prosperous new year from Ireland.
He (and his band Guided by Voices) is definitely an acquired taste. But here’s a spoonful: th-cam.com/video/0Zq8E3i0AiM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=YtzjzkQU2htbqI7b

Out Of The Army? Okay. You know I’ll give it a spin tonight but only if you play Elephant Jokes!!! See what happens…
@ deal!

There’s a lot to like on Zeppelin Over China!!!
@ and I’m realizing I need to listen to his lyrics more. They’re so unique and interesting
From a Compound Eye will always be by number one. Probably in my top 50 albums of all time. Glad that you manged to get a vinyl copy of Fiction Man!
Took me long enough to find a good copy under $150!!!
Def in my top 5 Pollard Solo LPs !!!!!!!!!!
Great ranking......l like the inclusion of speak kindly and choreographed man of War!
Maybe from a compound eye is slightly low....Nah
Such a great discography!!!!
Hey Scot!👍☮️👑🐍🙏😎
Jeff!!!!
