Not my favorite Old 97's album (probably Too Far To Care) but it holds up way better than most of the traditionalist alt-country albums from back then.

top 3 - perfect for singing along when you're drunk, first examples of Rhett's songwriting wit:
St. Ignatius
Wish the Worst
Stoned

4-Leaf Clover - overshadowed by later version
Doreen - ditto
Miss Molly - if you're going to do cornpone, let Murry sing
Mama Tried - like this
Dancing With Tears in My Eyes - maybe the cheesiest song they ever released (up through Fight Songs)

Good album. I voted for Wish the Worst. So I guess it'll be a two-way tie between Wish the Worst and St. Ignatius, which is my second.

i voted for "Stoned", a great song, though I havent listened to this whole album in a long long time. I'm seeing them play Wednesday night here in Philly.
