I picked You Do or You Don’t. But I easily could have picked five or six others. I’ve always been a fan of All My Sorrows. Curious about its origins, which are not clearly credited on the album. Google says it was originally a Shadows song…

You Do Or You Don't is my perennial favorite from OOTC as well.

I thought Lindsey did All My Sorrows as a cover/interpretation of All My Sorrows by the Kingston Trio, who were his favorite band early on I believe. Seems like it's a traditional song, so the Kingston Trio version is in turn an interpretation of a folk song. Lindsey's version knocks them all out of the park.

Seeing so far as there isn't a single song that makes it over 20%, that means that several songs, if not all, are fans' choice. OOTC is definitely a very good album.

Its hard to pick. I voted for Wrong but his CD and tour of 2018 had me rediscover Doing What I can. But they are all good.

EVERY time I've been able to pick up a Rick Turner model one, the absolute FIRST thing I play is the intro to Countdown.

I'm not sure who you've been tasting, but clearly you need to switch.

I don't care HOW many times you finger Rick Turner...Soul Drifter is a better tune. Countdown has a nice little riff, but not the same thing.

Rick is dead, and even I'm not that pervy.

Countdown is as hooky as it gets.

Street of Dreams, especially when he played it with This Nearly Was Mine in front of it.

After that, This Is The Time.

Why did you close the poll before I had a chance to vote?! I might have supplied the tie breaker, fool!
