    Rate the ABC catalogue from A to C.

    Rate the AC/DC catalogue from AC to DC.

    etc.

    One could get carried away.

    It's alright though, since the first Rufus (of the first 2 albums) wasn't that great. Tell Me Something Good was arguably their best song... they were an all white band (except for Chaka) which doesn't really mean anything of substance. They just weren't as musically interesting as Rufus II who recorded the 3rd album, Rufusized.
    Why is it whenever someone mentions an artist that was clearly progressive (yet not the Symph weenie definition of Prog) do certain people feel compelled to snort "thats not Prog" like a whiny 5th grader?

    You're probably not the only one, tbh
    my music collection increased tenfolds when I switched from drug-addicts to complete nutcases.
