I'd put NYC G&G tied with Washing Machine and Nurse for my fave Geffen albums. All three are among my all time favorites, though quite a few notches down from Bad Moon Rising, which is really the band's ultimate musical statement.

Totally agreed (except that NYC Ghosts & Flowers is definitively my favorite Geffen album, also with Sonic Nurse, Washing Machine, and I'd had A Thousand Leaves too, but NYC G&F is far better in my opinion)
