Elvis Costello’s 1978 This Years Model has no filler songs in my opinion.

This is my "Soooooo Close" pick. I cannot say that "Why Worry" isn't a throwaway song. The rest are freaking incredible. So, Brothers in Arms is one song away from perfection.

I found it. I forgot all about "Kristofferson". It has zero throwaway songs:

Side 1
Blame it on the Stones
To Beat the Devil
Me and Bobby McGee
Best of all Possible Worlds
Help me Make it Through the Night
The Law is for Protection of the People

Side 2
Casey's Last Ride
Just the Other Side of Nowhere
Darby's Castle
For the Good Times
Duvalier's Dream
Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down




BTW...my father has dementia. I visit him multiple times per week at his assisted living facility. Every time, I pick up his guitar and play "Best of All Possible Worlds", and he is able to sing along with me. Music is a powerful thing.

Yeah a lot would say the same. No Remorse and Metal Militia don't have much playback for me personally.

I'll say it then - "Why Worry" isn't a throwaway song.

I was on the fence about it. Personally, I like the song, but I think every other track adds to the significance of the album. "Why Worry" just always seemed like it was a level below the others. Still, it is such an incredible album. If I thought about it a bit longer, I'm sure I would probably change my stance on "Why Worry" as well.

Massive Attack - Mezzanine




Saw them perform at the Hollywood Bowl some years ago. That's one of my favorite albums.

It's a really good album overall but it isn't for everyone. I'm a big fan of MA. Black Milk is probably my favorite song on Mezzanine. If you're familiar with the theme song to House that's on there too as are others that you may recognize from The Matrix & Stigmata.
