Just one week to go and the entire RR membership is yawning with excitement as we rapidly approach the end of list.

2) Live Rust--Neil Young & Crazy Horse: Plenty of bootlegs challenge this official live album, but with the amazing catalog and the perfectly sloppy backing band, Neil Young was hitting one of his peaks that would take another decade for him to re-approach. Turn it up and it all sounds like one big blur.

I think the author hit a home run here. Neil Young isn't mentioned often enough here, or so it seems, and that's too bad. He has to be considered among a handful of living legends, and this live record has some of his best material.

Any guesses as to what record he chose as # 1? Give it a shot if you dare.
