    Possibly my favourite band! Just picked up a DVD of theirs, with contributions from our very own Nigel W.

    Impossible to pick a permanent top 5.

    Wasn't Born to Follow
    Drug Store Truck Drivin' Man
    You're Still On My Mind
    Time Between
    Sing Me Back Home

    But that top 5 changes with the wind.
