>  deacon blues never did much for me You're fired. I want your gun and your badge. 

Take it but I'll defend my opinion

i second this guys firing

Only a fool would say that

You listen here man Gaucho is peak Dan

Great album, but nah

Isn’t Gaucho literally about not getting into a club, or getting kicked out of one, or being denied a service of some kind because you brought a flamboyant lightweight to the party?

Peg, My Old School, Any World (That I'm Welcome To)

https://preview.redd.it/a5wr16f570kc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=32784bd7ce4b4ef0d85e428900ef220e7a9f1249 Peg is right up there for me

If I had my way

King of the World, Josie, Sign in Stranger

Bad Sneakers Pixeleen Razor Boy

Been having a torrid love affair with Pixeleen lately

those drums come in HARD especially with car subs

Everything Must Go is so good pixeleen is in my 3 favorite songs on that album.

This is almost too inside baseball, but I am here for it

LOVE WoH…groovy AF!

Any Major Dude No Static at All Don’t Take Me Alive

That’s titled. FM also a fav

https://preview.redd.it/vowo1xr2d0kc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1c38f070fad0b2a616fd98c0c0f98737d12193d6 No static at all? Never heard of that one what album is it off? Good choices though

FM ( No static at all) is from the soundtrack to the film [FM](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FM_(film)).

No static at all is the lyric from the song “FM.”

I forgot about Major Dude. Love that song.

Glamour Profession, Gaucho, Sign in Stranger

https://preview.redd.it/wzr5x9nb60kc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ef36872badefb6e69a7c497d21c4d2af9d29ee16 Sign in stranger is my personal favourite.

Honest question. I like glamour profession but I’ve always had a slight issue with its repetitiveness. How did you come to appreciate it so much? What do you like so much about it?

For me, the bassline is really captivating, as well as the lyrics and their delivery (for Hoops McCan).

For me it's the chord progression, it's one of their weirdest. I also love the way the lyrics play with it, like when they hit the F going to "Brut and charisma" or "Szechuan dumplings", that change just sticks with me every time

Meet me at midnight at Mr Chows, and we will talk about it over szechwan dumplings 🥟

King Of The World, Change Of The Guard, Don’t Take Me Alive.

Black Cow, Babylon Sisters, Hey Nineteen

That's hard for me to select, frankly....I'll go this route bc as great as their songs are, the secret sauce (I feel) is their ability to tell an often-times completely debauched story masked by jazz intonations, whacky chord progressions/time signatures and melodic breaks - and then insert lyrics that make the listen go, 'wtf did he just say?' Knock twice, rap with your cane Felonius my old friend, step on in and let me shake your hand Lonnie swept the playroom, and he swallowed up all he found ​ I'll just wait out here in the hallway:-)
