Is this Jeff in Seattle dude for real? Is he being tongue-in-cheek and thinking it's obvious? 'Cause he might be thinking that but he'd be wrong, at least to me.

I prefer Zeppelin slightly to The Who, but it's close. I rank them this way.

1) Houses of the Holy
2) Quadrophenia
3) Physical Graffiti
4) Led Zeppelin
5) Led Zeppelin II
6) Who's Next
7) The Who By Numbers
8) Led Zeppelin IV
9) Tommy
10) A Quick One
11) The Who Sell Out
12) Presence
13) The Who Sing My Generation
14) Who Are You
15) It's Hard
16) Led Zeppelin III
17) Coda
18) In Through the Out Door
19) Face Dances
20) Endless Wire

I can't believe that everyone got caught up in Led/Who and MMA/football arguments, and nobody mentioned how the 8th entry in this list came out as a shades-wearing emoticon.  That made this list all the better, for me, personally, especially as I'm not particularly into either band.

Also, unsure about whether apparent "troll" is for real or joke, but I think Tom is being anything but lazy.  From what I can imagine, he is probably dealing with hurricane fallout, as I understand it hit the Jersey area fairly hard.  Please be understanding and show sympathy.  He does so much, for free, and has done the show so much without asking much from us in return.  Let's be grateful that he's even still doing the show, at this point.

Ranking Quadrophenia highest of the Who albums shows that you know your Who. I'm guessing Live at Leeds being left off was an oversight. One of the best live rock records ever. Probably my favorite guitar tone ever. I'd rank it neck and neck with Who's next.

I wrongly assumed this show/board was a place where gentleman could come to trade jabs.

I will return to laying in prostrate at the altar of Tom, worshiping with all the rest of you sheeple.

Please, accept my most humble apology.

I'll be honest. Your comment doesn't bother me half as much as the folks that constantly praise Tom. WE GET IT. It's understood that the majority of BS fans have the utmost respect for Tom. I think Tom knows this. Whether Jeff is being serious or not it doesn't really matter.

I challenge authority in every facet of my life but two: Karate and The Best Show.

Well, I used my real name and a real photo of me.

I should ask you, are YOU real? What's your name and where's your picture?

Photograph yourself with a newspaper and confirm your claim!

What is the derivation of the last name "in Seattle"?  There's a fascinating and plucky immigrant story behind that one, I bet.
I really don't appreciate your sarcastic, anti-comedy tone, Bro!

I really like that that's the name of the Newbridge newspaper because the newspaper where I grew up was the Pottsville Republican-Herald.

I listened to almost the whole show but somehow missed Skeevy.  I may not sleep again for awhile.

I love Live at Leeds, but I was avoiding compilations and/or live records. (I might have made an exception if an entirely new record, like Neil Young's Time Fades Away were recorded live.)
