What's your most favorite and least-loved songs on Lloyd Cole and the Commotions' debut classic Rattlesnakes? Jim chose this one for a full-on lovefest unifier. We've all dug Lloyd since last century, even seeing him together with Michael Penn in 1990. Mister Cole politely declined to rank his own record but you can hear him kindly chime in on our Highway 61 Revisited episode. Even better, we got Camera Obscura's Tracyanne Campbell to tell us her favorites along with Mike Remoll, the Cool Brother Hall of Famer that introduced Jim to the Commotions 40 years ago (stay tuned & listen post-credits!).

What're your most favorite and least-loved songs on this first collection of Bee Gees hits from 1969? Adam chose this childhood favorite from his parents' shelves, pulling one of the most annoying music snob cards: I prefer their earlier work. Sorry, disco fans.

Adam picked the soundtrack of his childhood for his first rerun episode. Jim wrote three sentences for his rerun episode. Dan's intro was 90 seconds. Adam's Behind The Scenes Ted Talk goes on for over three unbearable minutes but the good news is that two members of Schoolhouse Rock creator Bob Dorough's 1996 band, Paul Gutierrez and Frank Meyer, who couldn't make it when we originally recorded this episode kindly sent us their picks for favorite SHR toon! Originally released July 28, 2022 HEY! What's your most-loved and least favorite Schoolhouse Rock song!? The gang takes a look at their five favorite tunes from the iconic 1970s educational television cartoons of their youth. Adam dreamed up the idea to do our first top five episode, focusing on Multiplication, Grammar and America from the series' Golden Era, 1973-1976.

RERUN: Elvis Costello & The Attractions - Blood & Chocolate ranked (2022) Hey everybody. Dan here. So it’s my turn to choose a ReRun Episode we recorded earlier and are bringing back and I chose Elvis Costello’s “Blood & Chocolate”. You may know that sometimes I go for an album that is going to be a surefire crowdpleaser with my cohosts. But most of the time, I like picking an album where I genuinely don’t know how at least one of them is going to react. It doesn’t always work out. Please see the episode where we discuss Lana Del Rey’s “Born To Die” if you want to see 90 minutes that left me scarred for life. BUT, the seemingly impossible dream for me was always to introduce an album to all my co-hosts that they didn’t know previously and have not one, not two, but ALL THREE of them fall in love with it. Now don’t get the wrong idea - that was never the goal of my picks. I’m far too obsessive to make it that simple. It’s a complicated algorithm that tries to counterprogram against my past five picks across year of release, genre, and artist characteristics combined with whatever’s in my gut at that moment. It’s mostly the gut thing actually. But that “what if” idea was always in the back of my head in general. And with this pick, I passed up the typical Costello albums you’d expect to be the go-to pick here because I’ve always felt Blood & Chocolate was the underappreciated underdog. And I love a good underdog.I’m sure you know that feeling of introducing someone you love to music they also decide to love. There’s nothing better. I hope you’re listening either because you already dig this album or because you’re looking to fall in love with something new. And I hope you’re happy now. If you don’t get that yet, you’ll get it after this episode. Enjoy.What are your most favorite and least-loved songs on Elvis Costello & The Attractions' 1986 album Blood & Chocolate? Dan chose to bring back this raw/ragged fan favorite instead of a more well-known record to get three fresh opinions from casual admirers of Mr. McManus. Contains lots of praise and the best story you will ever hear about his stage name. Be sure to stick around to the end for a historic announcement about our next few episodes.

Hello and welcome to our first official We Will Rank You rerun. You may have noticed that we've had to reupload some old episodes recently that were mistakenly taken down for copyright reasons. I looked at our analytics for the first time in ages and noticed that we had the biggest month we've ever had just because of one extra old episode I'd put back up. I mean, I'm already slowly putting up all of the old episodes on Youtube with fun visuals. I guess I can put up an oldie here too.Jim chose the first one to bring back and he picked episode seven on the self-titled debut of the Stone Roses from 2021. He chose to rank each song in the order that they're on the album, which we only did one other time, for Blur's Parklife, before the others agreed that it was anticlimactic when we named our favorite song in the first few minutes. I told ya. At an hour and 57 minutes, it was our longest episode to date but a couple of episodes later, Sinead passed it by one minute and eventually our 1983 wildcard episode was our longest at nearly three hours. For years, this was our most listened to episode until it was recently taken over by our Wildcard Live Album show.Jim writes: "The hosts agree (I think) that this is the group’s favorite album they’ve ever ranked.  I maintain my album picks are the best. No one comes close."  He's not right about his picks being the best but this episode probably is in a very close race with Violent Femmes for our biggest surefire lovefest, except for, spoiler alert, Dan's take on Adored, which became an oft-repeated anecdote. Here it tis. Jim's lemony-fresh pick is by FAR the album that the four of us have all loved the most. That combined with Adam being the singer for a ridiculous Stone Roses coverband means that there was a LOT for us to say, resulting in our longest episode yet. However, it's a FUN one. For fans of podcasts that go track-by-track instead of our usual countdown, today is your lucky day for a special episode on this 1989 classic. Special guests include 33 1/3 Stone Roses author Alex Green from Stereo Embers podcast and F#!kin' In The Bushes DJ Daniel Sant!

What's your most loved and least favourite song on the Oasis b-sides collection the Masterplan? FINALLY, our long awaited Oasis episode and Jim threw us a curveball choosing this collection with some of his favorite Gallagher tunes. SHIELDS UP as he takes on two non-fans for a fookin' Brit battle. Adam was the singer of North America's first(?) Oasis coverband, the short-lived parody the Fookin' Wankers, but he loves taking the piss, so he and Dan cranked up the willpower trying not to buzzkill Jim's superfandom TOO badly. Lots of fun show tales from San Francisco's tiny, infamous Britpop royalty/meth supply show to their biblical Rose Bowl reunion gathering.

Adam: You may have heard me talking here a couple of weeks ago about the Quarrelmen Beatles miniseries I’m doing. It's my birthday so I’m birthing it everywhere you get your podcasts plus I’m putting the first episode here too to tempt you into subscribing. You’re not gonna be able to resist after hearing this episode that we did at none other than Abbey Road Studios when my band Stones n Roses was on tour there back in 2021. I told the other We Will Rank You hosts I’d have all the Beatles albums ranked within a year. Four years later, I’ve only recorded about half of them but here they come!  You’re not going to see any more episodes here until the one where all four OG hosts ranked- Well I’m not telling you which one. You’ll have to wait and see and if you want to hear Jim and I rank an album in Liverpool, you’ll just have to figure out how to spell Quarrelmen and go subscribe, won’t you? WON’T you? We’re on Facebook, Instagram and Threads too so do the thing. Breaking up the band to start a solo career? Nah but, for now, here’s the Fab Four….  THE QUARRELMEN PODCAST #1 Please Please Me ranked at Abbey Road What’s your most loved and least favorite song on the first Beatles album?! One, two, three, FAH! The Quarrelmen Beatles podcast miniseries kicks off with England's own Richard Merrett (Airhead/the Wilsons) and his young sons Frank and George Merrett ranking Please Please Me in the most famous studio in the world.  Recorded back in 2021 at the end of the last Stones n' Roses UK tour, the California band recorded a version of "Revolution 9" with 1960s microphones used by "the boys" and Beatles Anthology, Rock Band and Love engineer Chris Bolster with Joe Wyatt (now Giles Martin's assistant). After a quick photoshoot of the band walking across THE street, singer Adam Gimbel welcomed the Merretts into the cozy Gatehouse studio to record the very first episode of the Quarrelmen. He had no idea it would be four busy, crazy years before the world would hear it. The kids are now senior citizens. The results are, quite simply, the most endearing Beatles podcast episode ever immortalized at Abbey Road....or anywhere else. Decades of fandom and childlike wonder collide with memories and a ranking of least and most favorites on the 1963 classic debut.
