What Do You Consider As 5 Big Ones off 15 Big Ones?

[Wata]

About a month ago, RangeRoverA1 and I had such conversation on Love You Re-Appreciation Thread:

Yes, dislike that song very much. 15 Big Ones is more like 10 Fillers & 5 Big Ones. It would be fitting there. Ditto Light Album, the worst 70s album. Adult Child differs stylistically than "Mona". Wouldn't work, it would be out of place.

Sorry to be off-topic, but what do you consider as 5 Big Ones off 15 Big Ones?

"The TM Song", "It's OK", "Susie Cincinnati", "A Casual Look", "Blueberry Hill".

Now, I'm curious what you consider as 5 Big Ones off 15 Big Ones.
My 5 Big Ones are:

Had to Phone Ya - A very good pre-Love You song
Everyone's in Love with You- Seems everyone hates this song, but I love it. Nice vocal from Mike and decent arrangement
That Same Song- Another pre-Love You song, which is also pretty good
Susie Cincinnati- One of the best tracks left off Sunflower, which it should've been ended up on
Just Once In My Life- Rough vocals but totally brilliant cover

[The LEGENDARY OSD]

In order of affection:

Just Once In My Life
Back Home
A Casual Look
Talk To Me
Palisades Park

[WickedWaters]

It's OK
Had to Phone Ya
Everyone's in Love With You

I have to agree with you about that last one, Watamushi.

It's difficult to pick five good songs on this album. I just don't care for it at all. I'll try:

1. 'Had to Phone Ya'
2. 'It's OK'
3. 'Back Home'

---gap in quality---

4. 'Just Once in My Life'
5. 'In the Still of the Night'

<<It's OK (single mix)
     Rock & Roll Music (2012 "Faders Up" mix) tied with 1976 single mix
     Palisades Park
     Back Home
     In the Still of the Night"

I have to say I also have a soft spot for the snippet of Tallahassee Lassie in Talk to Me

Speaking of, I've often wondered if that Tallahassee Lassie snipped was at one point meant to be a fully fleshed-out song (and possibly even recorded as such?), but they just used one little part for some reason. Kinda like Ding Dang. Does anyone know?

I, for one, think this album is underrated.

My top 5 are:

Just Once in My Life
Had to Phone Ya
In the Still of the Night
It's OK
Talk to Me

Anyone noticed that this one album is mysteriously not present on Spotify? I think every other BB studio album (barring Still Cruisin' and SIP) is on there. The absence of Still Cruisin' and SIP makes more sense, since those albums were never reissued from their original pressings. Not the case with 15 Big Ones, making its absence seem all the more conspicuous.

Nah, it's there and it's been there as long I've been using Spotify. It's considered a compilation for some odd reason though, so that may be why you didn't notice. They need to fix that.

Oh weird. Thanks for clearing that up. Yeah, definitely a glitch on their end. When you scroll through the chronological albums under "Albums" for the band, it's not there at all. Now that you steered me straight, I see that if you type in the full album title, it does come up apparently though. I'm sure a lot less people exploring the band have listened to the album as a result.

Is it just me, or are we having the same thread remade and the same discussion every single day?

[♩♬🐸 Billy C ♯♫♩🐇]

Kinda, but beats the sh*t out of the arguing, or Andrew's fellating over his boss Mike.

[Wata]

Is it just me, or are we having the same thread remade and the same discussion every single day?

Considering the fact that we're discussing a band whose new albums barely come out in last 30 years, it's kinda natural, at least to me.

I'm glad to get due credit for the thread idea. Thanks!

You're welcome! Then I should add your credit to that Al thread...

Is that because your username has the same word?

It also happens to be where I live (but my name is actually a movie title), so yes that plays a part in why I like it.

Does Susie Cincinnati get a lot of airplays on your local radio station, just like Salt Lake City is popular in Salt Lake City?
