Having too many great albums from which to choose a favorite is a nice problem to have, isn't it? I think the best you can hope for is to pick a favorite album from each of the decades that the band was active (although you'd really have to pick two from both the 80s and the 90s).

Seriously though, man, if you were down with Green you should be able to connect with just about any track on Out of Time that wasn't featured an Sesame Street and that doesn't have KRS1 rapping on it. The two albums aren't all that different outside of the singles.
