I ordered these in the order of release on purpose for a few reasons: Sister is my personal favorite but it is not their best. Whether it's your favorite, not your favorite, or didn't even make your top five, Daydream IS their best album. Dirty is not as good of an album as the four that preceded it but it is still fucking amazing. My two favorite Sonic Youth songs ever are Theressa's Sound-World and Wish Fulfillment.

Though I agree that Daydream is definitive, I think that Murray Street is equally brilliant. It is every bit as seamless and perfect. As good an album for the band SY became in their later era as DN was for the SY of the '80s.
Neither album is my personal favorite, but they are two sides of the same coin.
