Forget that other silly thread. Where would you rank the album all time? If anyone pays attention, I'm first and foremost a hip-hop head, but grew up in the 80's so I love that era. Dude brings so much energy on that album it's ridiculous. When you match that with his unique sound and 5* musicianship, you get a classic. If I'm stranded on an island and only get 20 albums, that's one.
