The Road to Rock 'n' Roll went nowhere after all.

REMEMBER, even in these head-to-head matchups, you are voting for your LEAST FAVORITE track. LEAST FAVORITE

Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

Still voting off Tony Adams. X-Ray Style is such a killer.

Agreed. Tony Adams would have gone early if I had my way. Easy vote.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Tony Adams is much more iconic to me. That tympani/bassline is massive, and it was the first thing after the Yalla Yalla single that I heard, which heralded the New Age of Joe.
