I like to play this game after each album release to see where people generally fit the new album in. Where does Man Machine Poem rank for you? Rank them from your favourite to lease favourite. It's not an easy task! Here's my list:
1. Road Apples
2. Up To Here
3. Fully Completely
4. Day For Night
5. Man Machine Poem
6. Now For Plan A
7. We Are The Same
8. Phantom Power
9. Music At Work
10. Trouble at The Henhouse
11. World Container
12. In Between Evolution
13. In Violet Light
14. EP

The last three I hardly ever bother with. In fact, I don't even own the EP any more (I only had it in cassette version), but I suspect I'd hate it less than WC even if the songwriting is juvenilia.

I've thought about this many times, but have a hard time ranking albums from different eras. Here are my groups in order of enjoyment.
1. Trouble at the Henhouse (LP)
2. Live Between Us (2LP)
3. Road Apples (LP)
Up to Here (LP)
Day for Night (LP)
Phantom Power
Man Machine Poem (LP)
4. Fully Completely (Arguably, the greatest collection of Hip songs ever recorded on one album, however way too steril sounding for my liking and the complete opposite of RA, which sounds amazing, IMO)
Music at Work
In Violet Light
In Between Evolution
Now For Plan A (CD)
5. EP (LP)
World Container
We Are The Same (CD)

1. Day For Night - its a haunting album that can bury you if you let it.
2. Fully Completely - Tell me another story Uncle Gord...please.
3. Road Apples - Its Road Apples...and most of us have some pretty incredible memories attached to those tunes.
3. Henhouse - although it does have my favorite tune on one it - the world needs more Sherpa.
4. Phantom Power - Membership...enough said
5. Up to Hear - Canadiana Blues like your dad listened to....or so you said until you heard it over your first 2-4 on victoria day long weekend.
6. Music at work...Julie Dorion of Erics Trip with Gord Downie of the Hip....good enough for this guy.
Not a fan of the direction the remainder of the albums went beginning with Violet Light until the last year or so although they all have some pretty incredible tunes on each...so together they make a solid 7.
