If I thought, for example, that '06 - now was the hot streak, I'd be including Smart Bar in there, despite it (clearly) being from another time/differing sound. Some of Psychic Hearts was recorded in '94 but I'd included that in '95 - '05. Melbourne Direct was recorded '04 but released '06 so its out as RR breaks the streak.
I simply meant that everything released during '95-'05, to me, was golden. Every time something "new" appeared on the shelves it was of a high caliber. As much as I rate all of their output, I've always been underwhelmed by something which has broken the spell (Into the Groovey anyone?). But for that decade, they seemed untouchable.

Point in my later reply is that are you saying EVOL & Sister era (or the eighties) are not as great as the nineties? I canīt understand if youīre saying Made In Usa great, why isnīt EVOL & Sister, because in my mind those three albums are very close together. Also Smart Bar has lots of same feelings & sounds.
